Inconel alloys find nide application in industry as high-temperature resistance materials. In the present study, refurbishment of the Inconel 617 alloy after 37,000 h of operation in the field is carried out through the heat-treatment process. The electrochemical response of the heat-treated alloy is determined through potentiodynamic testing of the surfaces. The heat-treatment process is carried out at 1175 degreesC for 1 and 2 h in an air free furnace. The corrosion rate is estimated from TAFEL and polarization measurements. The surface morphology after the electrochemical tests is studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while the material characterization at the surface is carried out using energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS), It is found that the corrosion resistance improves considerably far the workpieces subjected to 1 h heat treatment. The depletion of Cr and Mo at grain boundaries results in excessive pitting in this region. Moreover, enrichment of Cr at the surface after 1 h heat treatment reduces the corrosion current.
