AB The objective of this work is to understand the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) treatment and electrochemical behaviour of a Ti6Al4V alloy manufactured by a laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing (AM) technique known as direct metal laser sintering (DMLS). Ca and P-containing coatings were produced with short time (<120 s) PEO treatments (also termed as Flash-PEO) obtaining 3–10 μm-thick coatings on both the AM alloy and a conventional counterpart. Subsequently, the electrochemical behaviour of the bare and treated alloys was assessed in a modified α-MEM solution via potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The fine α-lamellar microstructure of the AM alloy with small β-phase particles at the interlamellar spaces was seen to advance the onset of sparking promoting faster growth of PEO coating in comparison to the conventional alloy. Flash-PEO coatings enhanced the corrosion protection of both conventional and AM alloys, the thinnest (<3 μm) coatings providing up to three times greater protection. AM Ti6Al4V was found to be susceptible to localized crevice corrosion which could be assigned to the high grain boundary density. Flash-PEO treatments, even as short as 35 s, were sufficient to successfully prevent it.
