What is it about?

The production of metallic components using 3D printing is rapidly increasing. As with any metallic components, their durability, namely corrosion resistance, is critical to their engineering use. Herein, we review the corrosion of 3D printed (i.e. additively manufactured) metals and alloys.

Why is it important?

The review, which summarises the work of over 100 recent studies, identifies the defects, associated lengthscales, and knowledge gaps in the corrosion of 3D printed metals and alloys.

Perspectives

The multiple authors (and their unique geographic perspectives) provide unique viewpoints to make this review paper a definitive summary in 2018. We hope that all readers find this paper useful.
