| Abstract Scope |
Wire Direct Energy Deposited (WDED) Commercially Pure Titanium (CP-Ti) tribocorrosion performance in large structural components is affected by the layer-wise material addition due to the thermal gradient. Understanding the synergistic interaction of wear and corrosion is critical to ensure the longevity of components in motion against environmental and mechanical factors. Tribocorrosion studies are conducted in situ, obtaining Tafel plots from a 3-electrode potentiostat system. Load-carrying capacity influence on corrosion behavior, coefficient of friction, wear volume, and wear rate is evaluated in varying loads from 5 to 20N. Specimens undergo a ball-on-disk tribology test in 2N HCl electrolyte. Understanding the effect of corrosive wear on WDED CP-Ti performance significantly contributes to the advancement of large-scale additive-manufactured structures. |
