| Abstract Scope |
Additively manufactured 316L stainless steel (316L SS) using laser powder bed fusion technique (L-PBF) exhibits an excellent resistance to pitting corrosion in chloride solutions. Pitting potential of the L-PBF 316L SS can be up to 4 times higher than the conventional, well annealed counterpart.
In this talk, we will first present a detailed multi-scale characterization of the microstructural features unique to L-PBF 316L SS. In a second part, we will present our investigations on the mechanisms associated with pitting on the as-built and well-polished surfaces. We will show that pitting is due to local chemistry variations created during the melting and solidification.
