Unavoidable nonmetallic inclusions generated in the steelmaking process are fatal defects
that often cause serious corrosion failure of steel, leading to catastrophic accidents and …

Abstract Effect of Nb alloying on passive film and corrosion behavior of laser powder bed
fused CoCrFeMnNi high entropy alloy (HEA) was studied by microstructure analysis …

Recently, the stainless steels produced by selective laser melting (SLM) have received

Electrochemical and localized corrosion behavior of a 316 L SS/copper/316 L SS composite
in 0.5 wt.% NaCl solution was investigated from cross-sectional and plane directions by …

Directed energy deposition (DED) process involves complex cyclic reheating and rapid
cooling, which probably lead to differences in microstructure and corrosion resistance from …

The core–shell structure of Ti/Nb precipitates in UNS S44660 was revealed by focused ion
beam–transmission electron microscopy (FIB–TEM). In the bromide solution, the Nb in the …
