Abstract
This study investigates the effects of surface finishing on the passive behavior and corrosion response of C63020- Nickel Aluminum Bronze (NAB) alloy produced via laser-powder bed fusion (L-PBF) additive manufacturing, followed by annealing. To evaluate these effects, annealed L-PBF NAB in its as-printed surface finish was compared to samples subjected to two different surface treatments: one ground and another ground followed by polishing. Microstructural analysis of the samples revealed primarily globular and elongated κIII phase precipitates distributed within the α-Cu matrix. Surface roughness measurements ranked the samples from highest to lowest as: as-printed NAB, ground NAB, and polished NAB. The results revealed that rougher surfaces enhanced electrochemical performance, as NAB passivity is a time-dependent process that benefits from an increased effective surface area. As a result, the ground-only samples demonstrated the highest corrosion resistance among the evaluated conditions.
期刊介绍:
The CIRP Journal of Manufacturing Science and Technology (CIRP-JMST) publishes fundamental papers on manufacturing processes, production equipment and automation, product design, manufacturing systems and production organisations up to the level of the production networks, including all the related technical, human and economic factors. Preference is given to contributions describing research results whose feasibility has been demonstrated either in a laboratory or in the industrial praxis. Case studies and review papers on specific issues in manufacturing science and technology are equally encouraged.
