The study focuses on nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) based alloys, a family of high-performance alloys that are highly resistant to high temperatures and corrosion. These alloys are used in the aerospace sector for critical components, such as engine parts and exhaust systems. The material under examination was produced using the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technique, a 3D printing process that employs a laser to melt and solidify layers of metal powder following different deposition paths. Aerospace engines, particularly turbines, are exposed to high temperatures and high humidity at sea level, factors that can accelerate corrosive phenomena. Therefore, it is crucial to study the passivation layer, a protective barrier primarily composed of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum oxides, which forms in the 625 alloy. This layer is created as a result of the reaction between oxygen in the air and the alloy’s binding elements. This research aims to study the 625 superalloy by analyzing and comparing four samples produced with different deposition paths and heat treatments through electrochemical analyses.
Lo studio si concentra sulle leghe a base di nichel-cromo (Ni-Cr), una famiglia di leghe ad alte prestazioni, molto resistenti alle alte temperature e alla corrosione. Queste leghe sono utilizzate nel settore aeronautico per componenti critici, come i componenti del motore e i sistemi di scarico. Il materiale in esame è stato prodotto utilizzando la tecnica di fusione a letto di polvere laser (LPBF), un processo di stampa 3D che impiega un laser per fondere e solidificare strati di polvere metallica seguendo diversi percorsi di deposizione. I motori aeronautici, in particolare le turbine, sono esposti a temperature elevate e ad alta umidità a livello del mare, fattori che possono accelerare i fenomeni corrosivi. Pertanto, è fondamentale studiare lo strato di passivazione, una barriera protettiva composta principalmente da ossidi di nichel, cromo e molibdeno, che si forma nella lega 625. Questo strato si crea in seguito alla reazione tra l'ossigeno presente nell'aria e gli elementi leganti della lega. Questa ricerca si propone di studiare la superlega 625, analizzando e confrontando quattro campioni prodotti con diversi percorsi di deposizione e trattamenti termici, attraverso analisi elettrochimiche

Abstract
The study focuses on nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) based alloys, a family of high-performance alloys that are highly resistant to high temperatures and corrosion. These alloys are used in the aerospace sector for critical components, such as engine parts and exhaust systems. The material under examination was produced using the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technique, a 3D printing process that employs a laser to melt and solidify layers of metal powder following different deposition paths. Aerospace engines, particularly turbines, are exposed to high temperatures and high humidity at sea level, factors that can accelerate corrosive phenomena. Therefore, it is crucial to study the passivation layer, a protective barrier primarily composed of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum oxides, which forms in the 625 alloy. This layer is created as a result of the reaction between oxygen in the air and the alloy’s binding elements. This research aims to study the 625 superalloy by analyzing and comparing four samples produced with different deposition paths and heat treatments through electrochemical analyses.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
