This study investigates and compares plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) coatings produced on wrought Ti6Al4V alloy substrates with those resulting from electron beam powder bed fusion (PBF-EB). For a duration of 1000 s, a phosphate/silicate electrolyte with a current density of 50 A/cm was employed to fabricate the coatings. Surface and polished cross-sections of the coated specimens underwent SEM and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses.
