The Effect of Post-Deposition Heat Treatment on the Microstructure, Texture, and Mechanical Properties of Inconel 718 Produced by Hybrid Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing with Inter-Pass Forging

The microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties of Inconel 718 fabricated via hybrid wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) with inter-pass forging, and the subsequent modified post-deposition heat treatment (PDHT), were investigated. The modified PDHT included homogenization at 1185 °C and d...

description The microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties of Inconel 718 fabricated via hybrid wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) with inter-pass forging, and the subsequent modified post-deposition heat treatment (PDHT), were investigated. The modified PDHT included homogenization at 1185 °C and double ageing at 720 °C, with furnace-cooling to 620 °C; this process was first used for Inconel 718 obtained via WAAM and inter-pass forging. In the as-printed material, two characteristic zones were distinguished, as follows: (i) columnar grains with a preferable <100> orientation and (ii) fine grains with a random crystallographic orientation. The development of static recrystallization induced via inter-pass forging and further heating during the deposition of the next (upper) layer provoked the formation of the fine-grained zone. In the as-printed material, particles of (Nb,Ti)C and TiN, and precipitates of a Nb-rich Laves phase that caused premature cracking and failure during mechanical testing, were detected. In the PDHT material, two zones were found, as follows: (i) a zone with coarse uniaxial grains and (ii) a zone with a gradient grain size distribution. PDHT resulted in the precipitation of γ″ nanoparticles in the γ-Ni matrix and the dissolution of the brittle Laves phase. Therefore, significant hardening and strengthening, as well as increases in ductility and impact toughness, occurred.
