a as-DED material and as-DED specimens heat treated at (b) 600 °C (HT-600), (c) 800 °C (HT-800), (d) 1200 °C (HT-1200), the built direction is out of plane. abbreviation ‘D’ and ‘E’ stands for ‘dendrite and equiaxed’ respectively. The dashed lines in (a3c3) means the growth of cellular structure. Pores from the manufacturing process were always visible in (a3d3).
