Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) 316 L stainless steel subject to different heat-treatments (solution annealing and hot isostatic pressing) is compared to nuclear-grade wrought 316 L in pressurized water reactor primary water at 288 °C (with and without dissolved hydrogen) using current-time transients, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Analysis of spectra by the Mixed-Conduction Model revealed slower corrosion rates of LPBF 316 L than wrought 316 L, the effect being more pronounced in the presence of dissolved hydrogen. The characteristics of the barrier layer and the oxide film/coolant interface were irreversibly altered upon removal of dissolved hydrogen.
