Abstract

In this study, Inconel 617 alloy was welded to A387-Gr.11 low-alloy steel using ER309L filler metal via gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW). First, the corrosion behavior of Inconel 617, A387-Gr, and the weld metal was evaluated by the Tafel polarization test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in acidic (H2SO4), neutral (NaCl), and combined (H2SO4 + NaCl) solution at ambient temperature. The results of polarization and EIS measurements in all corrosive solutions indicate that the corrosion resistance decreases from 617 alloy to weld metal and from weld metal to low-alloy steel, respectively. The Comparison of the polarization curves of the base metals and the weld metal showed susceptibility to galvanic corrosion between Inconel 617 / weld metal in 1M NaCl solution. The behavior of galvanic corrosion of this pair was evaluated using the mixed potential theory and the electrochemical noise measurement. The results showed that in a galvanic couple of alloy 617 / weld metal, the weld metal acts as anode and corrodes in such a way that its corrosion rate increases from 0.22 μA/cm2 before joining to 1 μA /cm2 after joining.

Abstract

In this investigation the effect of oxides powders of SiO2, MoO3 and CuO on the depth of penetration, microstructure and hardness profile of GTAWeld precipitation hardening martensitic 17-4PH was assessed. Samples were taken from 17-4PH steel sheet with the dimensions of 150*50 mm and with the thickness of 5 mm, and were welded by oxide powder of SiO2, MoO3 and CuO. Results showed that using oxide powder increased the penetration depth of the welded joints by about 150 percent compared to the normal condition. Also, it was shown that although using SiO2 powder increased the penetration depth to about 7.49 mm, it provides inferior weld bead appearance. The use of MoO3 and CuO powder increased the penetration depth of the weld to about 5.3 mm. Although inclusions were found throughout the side of the weld bead when MoO3 powder was employed for welding. The microstructure of the weld in different samples did not vary and included dendritic structure with delta ferrite located between the dendrites. The hardness profile of the welded joints showed the closeness of the hardness of the welded joints using different oxide powder with the base metal.

Abstract

The present research aims to study the liquation and re-solidification of liquid during friction stir spot welding of AZ91 alloy. Although friction stir spot welding is a solid-state process, the presence of Mg17Al12 intermetallic compounds results in liquation during the welding process. In this study, friction stir spot welding was performed with a tool rotational speed of 2500 rev/min and a tool dwell time of 5 seconds. The microstructural assessment was carried out by optical and scanning electron microscopes. The results showed that initiation of liquation from the inner and outer edge of the eutectic precipitates occurred based on the melting of residual eutectic. Moving toward stirred zone, a liquid film formed along the grain boundaries. The liquid re-solidified as a composite structure of α-Mg/, which α-Mg phase dispersed in γ-Mg17Al12 matrix. Also, the results showed that eutectic morphology resulting from re-solidification is related to the cooling rate. Eutectic morphology changed from granular to fibrous by increasing the cooling rate. Also, the liquid film along the grain boundaries re-solidified as a divorced eutectic.

Abstract

In this study, non-homogenous welding of nimonic 75 superalloy to Monel 400 with 1 mm thickness was investigated with pulsed Nd:YAG laser welding. The mechanical properties of the joint were analyzed with optical and scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, micro-hardness test and tensile test. In the case of non-homogeneous welding of Nimoinc 75 superalloy to Monel 400, defects such as liquation cracks and porosity in the welded samples were observed. these defects were removed with increasing the preheating temperature and decreasing the heat input. The results showed the voltage, pulse width, pulse frequency and welding speed should be selected as 500 volts, 9 milliseconds, 3 Hz and 0.9 mm/s respectively to reach the proper penetration depth. Also, the investigations show that the welding structure is composed of austenitic matrix containing columnar dendrites and some cellular areas. The mechanical properties of the weld metal were reduced after joining and segregation causes a change in the amount of elements and the appearance of intermetallic compounds in the spaces between dendrites and cells. All non-homogeneous samples broke during the tensile test from the weld metal area.

Abstract

In the present study, friction stir process (FSP) was used to produce AL/ZrO2/ZrSiO4 surface hybrid composite at a fixed rotation speed of 1400 rpm and traverse speeds of 20, 25, 31.5 and 40 mm/min. Therefore, the purpose of the mentioned study is to investigate the effect of tool traverse speed on the microstructure, hardness and wear behavior of the above-mentioned surface hybrid composite and compare it with base material aluminum 5052. Investigations showed that as a result of FSP operation, a fine-grained structure is created, which improves the hardness and wear resistance of the samples compared to the base sample with the presence of ZrO2 and ZrSiO4 particles. Also, the results showed that among the FSP samples, the sample with a speed of 20 mm/min has the highest hardness and wear resistance. The reason for this is that in this sample, due to the lower traverse speed compared to other samples, more heat has been generated, which has led to more suitable particle distribution and more fine particles. Therefore, in the sample with the traverse speed of 20 mm/min, the hardness and wear resistance increases by 27.3% and 68.9% respectively compared to the base material sample. Also, the examination of the wear surfaces of the samples showed that the wear mechanism in the base sample is strong adhesive wear, and as a result of the FSP operation and surface compositing due to the fineness of the grains and the increase in hardness, the wear mechanism has become weak adhesive, so the wear resistance of the sample is FSPs have been improved.
