Abstract
High-temperature oxidation of additively manufactured (AM) Ni-base alloy IN625 has been studied in air and Ar-5%H2-3%H2O at 900–1000 °C. AM material is found to oxidize faster than the conventionally manufactured (CM) IN625 due to severe intergranular oxidation observed in the former. The AM IN625 was heat treated at 1100–1250 °C and hot rolled at 980 °C in order to modify the AM microstructure, primarily grain size, and analyze its role in alloy oxidation behavior. Grain size is shown to affect overall oxidation kinetics but not the intergranular oxidation morphology.
