description Alloy parts produced by an additive manufacturing method with rapid heat transfer from fast melting and solidification have different microstructures, characteristics, and performances compared with materials made by the conventional process. In this study, the corrosion and oxidation resistance of SS316L, which was prepared by the powder bed fusion process, was compared with those of cold-rolled SS316L. Additionally, the surface oxide film on stainless steel was thoroughly assessed since the film has the greatest influence on the corrosion and oxidation resistance. The effect of heat treatment on corrosion and oxidation resistance of SS316L fabricated by additive manufacturing was investigated. The SS316L has a microstructure formed by sub-grain cells, in which locally concentrated alloying elements form a stable passive film. As a result, it has a higher level of corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance than conventional cold-rolled materials. However, it was confirmed that the sub-grain cell was removed by heat treatment, which resulted in the degradation of corrosion and oxidation resistance.
