What is it about?
Stainless steel (316L) in the as-printed state is susceptible to localized attack at the boundaries of the melt pools.

Why is it important?
Applications of this material would usually not involve any heat treatment before use, so this susceptibility could lead to corrosion failures of parts made from it.
