30CrMnSi is quenched and tempered steel with medium hardenability, and good mechanical properties. However, the anti-corrosion of the weld heat affected zone will be decreased, which will lead to the worse overall properties of parts. The anti-corrosion properties of heat affected zone will be improved by YAG laser treatment according optimized processing parameters. The microstructure of the modified heat affected zone was observed and analyzed in this paper. And the anti-corrosion property was studied also. The results showed that the anti-corrosion property of heat affected zone will be improved by laser remelting technology. The laser anti-corrosion is the effective method to enhance anti-corrosion property.

The paper reviews the causes and characteristics of stress-relief cracking, i.e., intergranular cracking in the heat-affected zone that occurs during the exposure of welded assemblies to the elevated temperatures produced by postweld heat treatments or high-temperature service. The findings presented are based largely on work at the Homer Research Laboratories with quenched and tempered steels. Means for preventing cracking during fabrication and service are discussed.

AbstractA 50.8-mm-deep gas tungsten arc weld was made with matching filler metal in cast Haynes 282 alloy. The narrow-gap joint was filled with 104 weld beads. Visual and dye-penetrant inspection of cross-weld specimens indicated that the cast base metal contained numerous casting defects. No visible indications of physical defects were found in the weld deposit. The weld heat-affected zone was characterized by microcracking and localized recrystallization. The cause of the cracking could not be determined. Hardness testing showed that a softened region in the as-welded heat-affected zone was nearly eliminated by post-weld heat treatment. Tensile testing up to 816 °C showed that cross-weld specimen strengths ranged from 57 to 79% of the cast base metal tensile strength. The stress-rupture strengths of cross-weld specimens are within 20% of base metal reference data. Failures of both tensile and stress-rupture specimens occurred in the base metal.
