Article Description

This work investigated the corrosion behavior of laser powder bed fusion produced (LPBFed) Ti5Cu and its heat-treated counterparts at 740 and 900 °C (named as HT-740 and HT-900 respectively) in Hank’s solution. The results indicated that the presence of acicular α'-Ti phase in LPBFed Ti5Cu was beneficial to corrosion, but the corrosion resistance of HT-740 and HT-900 were increased owing to the dual-phase microstructure (α'/α-Ti + Ti 2 Cu) or the increased content of Ti 2 Cu phase in the microstructure. The Ti 2 Cu phase could provide an ‘envelope’ protection to the α'/α-Ti phase and slow down the micro-galvanic reaction between α'/α-Ti phase and Ti 2 Cu phase.
