Abstract

In this research 420 martensitic stainless steel welded with the ER308L, ER309L and ER420 fillers by GTAW method. The corrosion properties of  the samples has been studied in 3.5% NaCl solution with and without CO2. Potentiodynamic polarization used to obtain the ER308L and ER309L have the best corrosion properties. In addition the welding process makes the 420 HAZ zone to be sensitized. The pitting potential of the samples has been decreased in presence of carbon dioxide. Furthermore, by adding CO2 to the solution the pH has been decreased and the corrosion potential reached near the -500 mV/SCE and the passivity current is also lowered.


Effect of buffer layer and electrode composition on the mechanical properties of H13 steel repair welds using shielded metal arc welding

Volume 7, Issue 2 (Journal OF Welding Science and Technology 2022)
Abstract
The present study investigated the effect of electrode composition and buffer layer on the microstructure and mechanical properties of H13 tool steel repair welds. Three specimens were welded applying two conditions; i.e. with and without stainless steel underlay. The microstructure of all weld metals contained the martensitic matrix with distributed chromium carbide precipitations. The microstructure of the underlay was a mixture of austenite and layers of ferrite with the skeletal morphology. The results showed that hardness of the welded substrates with underlay was higher than that of the specimens without underlay. This difference could be more than 240 HV. However, the highest hardness values were obtained in the heat affected zone of welds. The application of tough underlay improved the weld toughness and bending properties of the welded specimens. Also, it encouraged the ductile fracture mode in weldments. Also, the higher hardness of weld metal could be resulted from the application of buffer layer.
Microstructure and mechanical properties of similar and dissimilar welding joints of weathering steel and plain carbon steel by GMAW with CO2 shielding gas

Volume 8, Issue 1 (Journal OF Welding Science and Technology 2022)
Abstract
The welding joints were investigated due to the significance of similar welding of Corten A weathering steel and its dissimilar welding with St12 plain carbon steel in industrial applications. The gas metal arc welding (GMAW) technique with carbon dioxide shielding gas was utilized in the present work. The welding process comprised current and voltage control, welding wire injection rate, shielding gas rate, welding speed, connection configuration, and microstructure evolution. Mechanical properties and microstructure evolution in similar and dissimilar joints and weld defects were evaluated by tensile, bending, hardness, metallographic, and radiographic tests. The weld microstructure in similar and dissimilar joints included grain boundary ferrite, acicular ferrite, and WidmanStatten ferrite. The tensile strengths of the similar and dissimilar joints were respectively 497 and 303 MPa. The weld zone hardness was 210 and 180 Vickers for similar and dissimilar joints, respectively. In conclusion, similar welding outperformed dissimilar welding considering weld joint defects, mechanical properties, and microstructure.
 

Microstructural evolution of Inconel 738LC joints using two-step heating TLP bonding

Volume 11, Issue 2 (Journal OF Welding Science and Technology 2025)
Abstract
In this study, a novel two-step heating strategy was investigated for transient liquid-phase (TLP) bonding of the IN-738LC superalloy. The bonding process consisted of an initial heating at 1150 °C for 5 seconds, followed by holding at 1110–1130 °C for 3 to 40 minutes. The microstructural evolution during the process, as well as the interface morphology, was characterized and compared with conventional TLP joints. This approach significantly reduced the time required to complete isothermal solidification; the width of the central eutectic zone decreased from 45 µm at 3 minutes to 19 µm at 12 minutes, and the eutectic zone was completely eliminated after 40 minutes. Microstructural examinations revealed that the initial step of the two-step heating process produced a cellular–dendritic solidification interface, leading to a non-uniform distribution of porosity along the bond region. Subsequent homogenization removed boride precipitates and resulted in the formation of uniformly distributed γ′ precipitates similar to those in the base metal. These findings provide practical and microstructural insights into the influence of thermal profiles on interfacial evolution and offer a pathway for improving joint quality in nickel-based superalloys.
