Methods—On the Application of Ambient Scanning Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy to Understand Micro-Galvanic Corrosion Phenomena: Interpretation and Challenges Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Impact of surface oxides on steel on hydrogen absorption and desorption Vrije Universiteit Brussel
atomic hydrogen in a metal can cause important ductility loss, known as “hydrogen embrittlement (HE)”, and can be introduced during the production and processing
of steel or during its use, referred to as internal hydrogen embrittlement (IHE) and hydrogen environment ...
Revealing the stress corrosion cracking initiation mechanism of alloy 718 prepared by laser powder bed fusion assessed by microcapillary method Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Microstructural Features, Defects, and Corrosion Behaviour of 316L Stainless Steel Clads Deposited on Wrought Material by Powder- and Laser-Based Direct Energy Deposition with Relevance to Repair Applications Vrije Universiteit Brussel
New insights into the mechanism of localised corrosion induced by TiN-containing inclusions in high strength low alloy steel Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This work investigated the chemical and electrochemical mechanisms of localised corrosion triggered by CaS·xMgO·yAl2O3·TiN complex inclusions in high strength low alloy steel (HSLAS) under a simulated marine environment. Special focus was given to the role of the TiN portion of the inclusion on the initiation and growth of the corrosion pits. The thermodynamic process of pitting initiation was investigated by Gibbs free energy, Pourbaix ...
Effect of Thermal Treatment on Corrosion Behavior of AISI 316L Stainless Steel Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Growth kinetics and passive behavior of the native oxide film on additively manufactured AlSi10Mg versus the conventional cast alloy Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Growth kinetics and passive behavior of the native oxide film on additively manufactured AlSi10Mg versus the conventional cast alloy Vrije Universiteit Brussel
This work studies the passive behavior and growth kinetics of the native oxide on additively manufactured AlSi10Mg and compares it with that of the conventional cast alloy, which presents a markedly different microstructure. With the use of a scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM)-based methodology, the growth kinetics of native oxide films on these alloys was examined. The microstructure of these materials had a great impact on the ...
