Abstract
Abstract Additive friction stir deposition (AFSD) is a novel additive manufacturing technique that enables the fabrication of components in the solid state. Given the benefits of AFSD, understanding the behavior of various feedstock materials after undergoing the AFSD process is crucial for optimizing their performance in structural applications. This study aims to evaluate the effects of AFSD on an Al–Mg alloy, Al5086, comparing it to its initial H32 condition to assess the changes in mechanical properties, microstructure, corrosion resistance, microhardness, and electrical conductivity. Tensile testing showed a 23% reduction in yield strength for as-deposited samples, while ultimate tensile strength remained comparable to the feedstock. Ductility improved significantly, with elongation to failure increasing by 77%, attributed to grain refinement and dynamic recovery. Microhardness decreased by 16% in lower layers due to thermal exposure, but electrical conductivity remained stable, indicating minimal solute atom redistribution. The Nitric Acid Mass Loss Test (NAMLT) revealed a 245% increase in corrosion rate for the AFSD material, linked to the higher density of grain boundaries acting as pathways for corrosion. These findings highlight AFSD’s potential for improving ductility and formability. However, they underscore the need for optimization to reduce corrosion susceptibility and address mechanical strength trade-offs. Future work should focus on fine-tuning process parameters or implementing post-treatment methods to enhance corrosion and mechanical performance.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
