Abstract

The poor surface finish of as-printed (AP) laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) 316L stainless steels has detrimental impacts on the resulting fatigue and corrosion performance. One postprocessing method, a self-terminating etching process (STEP), can improve the surface finish of parts up to 76%, but the resulting effects on fatigue life and corrosion reliability remain unknown. This work evaluates the effect of the STEP on the fatigue and corrosion performance of L-PBF 316L. In addition, to determine the influence of changing the microstructures from the as-built condition, specimens having undergone a pre-STEP stress relief (SR + STEP) heat treatment and a pre-STEP solution anneal (SA + STEP) were evaluated. The results showed that a pre-STEP SR resulted in the best Sa roughness, while a pre-STEP SA had the biggest improvement in Sv roughness. Despite Sv roughness being a major indicator of fatigue performance, the coarse grains and internal porosity in the SA specimens resulted in the poorest fatigue performance. The SR + STEP specimens' fatigue lives were 10 × higher than the AP samples under a load of 275 MPa and 2-3 × higher under a 350 MPa load. The SR + STEP specimen also had the best corrosion performance in a sodium chloride electrolyte due to the smoother surface and least remnant surface carbides.

L-PBF 316L不锈钢经自终止蚀刻工艺改善表面光洁度的疲劳和腐蚀评价

激光粉末床熔融（L-PBF）316L 不锈钢的表面光洁度较差，对其疲劳和腐蚀性能有不利影响。一种后处理方法--自终止蚀刻工艺（STEP）可将零件的表面光洁度提高 76%，但其对疲劳寿命和腐蚀可靠性的影响仍然未知。本研究评估了 STEP 对 L-PBF 316L 的疲劳和腐蚀性能的影响。此外，为了确定改变微观结构对竣工状态的影响，还对经过预 STEP 去应力（SR + STEP）热处理和预 STEP 固溶退火（SA + STEP）的试样进行了评估。结果表明，预 STEP SR 的 Sa 粗糙度最好，而预 STEP SA 对 Sv 粗糙度的改善最大。尽管 Sv 粗糙度是疲劳性能的主要指标，但 SA 试样中的粗晶粒和内部孔隙率导致其疲劳性能最差。SR + STEP 试样在 275 兆帕载荷下的疲劳寿命比 AP 试样高 10 倍，在 350 兆帕载荷下高 2-3 倍。在氯化钠电解液中，SR + STEP 试样的腐蚀性能也是最好的，因为其表面更光滑，残留的表面碳化物最少。
