Implication

Post-deposition aluminizing improves corrosion resistance and mechanical behavior in stainless steel and Inconel 625, suggesting enhanced durability for additive manufacturing applications.

Key Points

Corrosion resistance improved by 2.3-fold for stainless steel and 13.9-fold for Inconel 625, highlighting effective treatment benefits.
Electrochemical analysis and microstructural evolution were used to evaluate mechanical behavior and corrosion performance across samples.
Additive manufacturing was applied using Wire Arc Directed Energy Deposition for fabricating these metallic structures with inherent surface defects.
The findings imply that post-deposition aluminizing offers a scalable approach to enhance metal durability in aggressive environments.
