A three dimensional finite element model (FEM) was established to simulate the temperature distribution, flow activity, and deformation of the melt pool of selective laser melting (SLM) AZ91D magnesium alloy powder. The latent heat in phase transition, Marangoni effect, and the movement of laser beam power with a Gaussian energy distribution were taken into account. The influence of the applied linear laser power on temperature distribution, flow field, and the melt-pool dimensions and shape, as well as resultant densification activity, was investigated and is discussed in this paper. Large temperature gradients and high cooling rates were observed during the process. A violent flow occurred in the melt pool, and the divergent flow makes the melt pool wider and longer but shallower. With the increase of laser power, the melt pool’s size increases, but the shape becomes longer and narrower. The width of the melt pool in single-scan experiment is acquired, which is in good agreement with the results predicted by the simulation (with error of 1.49%). This FE model provides an intuitive understanding of the complex physical phenomena that occur during SLM process of AZ91D magnesium alloy. It can help to select the optimal parameters to improve the quality of final parts and reduce the cost of experimental research.

This paper presents the results of comparative corrosion resistance studies of stainless steels manufactured by selective laser melting (SLM) in the initial state with subsequent heat treatment and machining. Pitting corrosion tests are carried out, according to ASTM G48 method A in 10% FeCl3·6H2O solution at elevated temperature and exposure time for 5h. The studies were performed on the AISI 321 and AISI 316L stainless steels manufactured by SLM. It was obtained that laser scanning speed decrease led to density rise by other SLM parameters being equal. Porosity affected to the stainless steel corrosion behaviour significant. Metal density decrease resulted to corrosion rate rise. Microstructure examination showed that pitting corrosion development depended on surface steel condition.

In this work, the green chemistry conversion coating on AZ31 magnesium alloy surface was made and studied by means of Ce (SO4)2·2(NH4)2SO4·4H2O and MnSO4 as inhibitor, H2O2 as oxidant, NaCl as accelerator, CH3COOH as stabilizer. The coating was evaluated in simulated body fluid (SBF) with pH=7.4 at 37°C by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show the conversion coating resistance, for the untreated or treated alloy, is 0.75 kΩ·cm2 and 3.28 kΩ·cm2 respectively. It indicates the conversion coating treated surface presents better corrosion behaviour in SBF than the original material surface. The morphologies and composition the coating were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) respectively. The result indicates that the Ce-Mn conversion coating was made on magnesium alloy surface. Biocompatibility of conversion coating was investigated by use of cell toxicity. Cell culture has shown that the magnesium alloy has good cytocompatibility.
