SLM-316L不锈钢纳米尺度界面结构特征及其对晶间腐蚀的影响机制

Selective laser melting (SLM), which is one of the rising 3D-printing technologies, could exactly fabricate the components with complex shapes and have great application potential in the energy and medical fields. The excellent corrosion resistance of stainless steels is one of the critical factors for their extensive application. However, the dendritic growth during the solidification results in a complex interfacial structure in the SLM stainless steels, which would make the SLM stainless steels suffer from intergranular corrosion. Now, both the intergranular corrosion mechanism of SLM stainless steels and the effect on the interfacial structure on the initiation and extension are unclear. Based on this, the current study aims to investigate the influence of the interfacial structure on the intergranular corrosion of SLM-316L stainless steel following the line of research: dendritic growth-interfacial structure-precipitates from grain boundaries-intergranular corrosion. The advanced microstructure characterization technologies is used to deeply investigate the dendritic growth and the corresponding interfacial structures, and reveal the relationship between the interfacial structure and the formation of the precipitated phases at the grain boundaries. The effect of the interfacial structures on the initiation and extension of intergranular corrosion of SLM stainless steels is studied using the nano-electrochemical in-situ testing technology. Finally, the methods for improving the resistance against intergranular corrosion of SLM stainless steels are obtained based on the research results of this study.

选区激光熔化技术（SLM）是一种新兴的金属3D打印技术，能够快速精密加工结构复杂的不锈钢零件，在能源、医疗等领域中有非常广阔的应用前景。良好的耐蚀性能是不锈钢广泛应用的关键性能之一，然而SLM不锈钢冷却凝固过程中的枝晶生长导致其具有复杂的界面结构，这使得SLM不锈钢将面临严重的晶间腐蚀风险。目前，SLM不锈钢的晶间腐蚀性能以及界面结构特征对其晶间腐蚀性能的作用机制等关键性问题尚未解决。基于此，本项目将围绕枝晶生长-界面结构-晶界析出相-晶间腐蚀的研究思路开展研究工作，采用先进的材料结构表征分析手段，深入研究SLM不锈钢熔池不同部位枝晶生长情况及所对应的纳米尺度界面结构特征，阐明SLM不锈钢界面结构对晶界析出相特征的作用规律，采用电化学纳米原位测试技术从纳米尺度揭示界面结构影响SLM不锈钢晶间腐蚀萌生、扩展的机制，探索优化SLM不锈钢耐晶间腐蚀性能的调控机制。
