| Popis: | The study investigated the microstructures and corrosion behaviors of Hastelloy X (HX) and HX reinforced by cerium oxide particles (HX-C) produced by selective laser melting (SLM) and compared to the wrought equivalent (HX-W). The aim was to eliminate hot cracking and investigate the HX's corrosion behavior in the presence of cerium oxide particles. The HX samples showed fine cellular and columnar solidification structures with uniform-size sub-cells and severe microcracking. Incorporating cerium oxide particles (1 wt%) resulted in finer and relatively equiaxed grains without microcracking. The HX-W alloy contained a micron-sized carbide (Mo-rich M6C type) within the matrix. The HX-C sample displayed higher porosities compared to the HX sample (1.8 % against 0.3 %). Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests were conducted in a standard NaCl solution at temperatures of 25, 50, and 70 °C to assess the corrosion behavior of Hastelloy samples. The HX-C matrix showed superior corrosion resistance compared to the HX-W and HX samples due to its finer grain structure and stable passive layer formation. Cerium oxide particles were found to be efficient in decreasing hot cracking and improving corrosion resistance. |
