Abstract

The influence of in-situ precipitation on corrosion behaviors of wire arc directed energy deposited (WADED) Al-Mg-(Sc-Zr) was studied. WADED Al-Mg showed a homogeneous microstructure with coarse equiaxed grains. WADED Al-Mg-Sc-Zr exhibited fine equiaxed grains along the molten pool boundary (MPB) and inter-layer zone (ITZ) while coarse equiaxed grains were inside the molten pool. The in-situ precipitation resulted in the primary Al3(Sc, Zr) aggregated along MPB and ITZ while minor-sized secondary Al3(Sc, Zr) existed inside the molten pool. WADED Al-Mg-Sc-Zr showed improved electrochemical behavior than Al-Mg. WADED Al-Mg presented random pittings that occurred near dispersed β-Al3Mg2. WADED Al-Mg-Sc-Zr exhibited pittings along MPB and ITZ, where Al3(Sc, Zr) aggregated and induced galvanic corrosion. Corrosion anisotropy was obvious in Al-Mg-Sc-Zr since more MPBs and ITZs make the XOZ plane susceptive to localized corrosion.
