AbstractThe alloy 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V is commonly used for heavy wall pressure vessels in the petrochemical industry, such as hydrogen reactors. As these reactors are operated at elevated temperatures and high pressures, the 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V welding consumables require a beneficial combination of strength and toughness as well as enhanced creep properties. The mechanical properties are known to be influenced by several welding parameters. This study deals with the influence of the heat input during submerged-arc welding (SAW) on the solidification structure and mechanical properties of 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V multilayer metal. The heat input was found to increase the primary and secondary dendrite spacing as well as the bainitic and prior austenite grain size of the weld metal. Furthermore, it was determined that a higher heat input during SAW causes an increase in the stress rupture time and a decrease in Charpy impact energy. This is assumed to be linked to a lower number of weld layers, and therefore, a decreased amount of fine grained reheated zone if the multilayer weld metal is fabricated with higher heat input. In contrast to the stress rupture time and the toughness, the weld metal’s strength, ductility and macro-hardness remain nearly unaffected by changes of the heat input.

The relation between the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe–Nb dissimilar joint were investigated using nanoindentation. The weld metal consists mainly of Fe2Nb, α-Fe + Fe2Nb, Nb (s,s) and Fe7Nb6 phases. Radial cracks initiate from the corners of the impressions on the Fe2Nb phase (~20.5 GPa) when subjected to a peak load of 300 mN, whereas the fine lamellar structures (α-Fe + Fe2Nb) with an average hardness of 6.5 GPa are free from cracks. The calculated fracture toughness of the Fe2Nb intermetallics is 1.41 ± 0.53 MPam1/2. A simplified scenario of weld formation together with the thermal cycle is proposed to elaborate the way local phase determined the mechanical properties.

Fatigue Endurance

Fatigue tests are carried out for 16MnR welded joint under constant strain control. Test results reveal that 16MnR weld metal exhibits characteristic of cyclic softening and non-masing obviously. The strain–life curve can be best described by the three-parameter equation. It shows the fatigue endurance limit in the heat-affecting zone (HAZ) of welded joint is lower than that in the weld metal.

The Inconel X-750 indicates good hot corrosion resistance, high stability and strength at high temperatures and for this reason the alloy is used in manufacturing of gas turbine hot components. The objective of this research was study the effect of post weld heat treatment (PWHT) on fusion zone and heat affected zone microstructure and mechanical properties of Inconel X-750 weld. After welding, samples were solutionized at 1500 0C. Various aging temperature and times were studied. The results show that aging temperature and time during PWHT can greatly affect microstructure and hardness in fusion zone and heat affected zone. As high aging temperature was used, the grain size also increased and M23C6 at the grain boundary decreased. This can result in decreased of hardness. Moreover excessive aging temperature can result in increasing MC carbide intensity in parent phase (austenite). It can also be observed that M23C6 at the grain boundary decreased due to high aging temperature. This resulted in decreasing of hardness of weld metal and heat affected zone. Experimental results showed that the aging temperature 705 0C aging time of 24 hours provided smaller grain size, suitable size and intensity of MC carbide resulting in higher hardness both in weld metal and HAZ.

Precipitation Behaviour

The effects of Mg/Si ratio on precipitation behaviour and properties of Al-Mg-Si alloys were studied by using electrochemical test, corrosion test and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results show that with the increases of Mg/Si ratio from 0.9 to 1.1, the density of the β" decreases, and the mechanical properties decrease. When the ratio of Mg/Si increases from 1.0 to 1.1, the density y of β" does not increase significantly, but the continuous degree of the MgSi phase decreases significantly. The source of cracks originate from MgSi phase, which reduces the mechanical properties. When the Mg/Si ratio is 0.9, the alloy is in an over-Si state, which results in serious intergranular corrosion (IGC).

Microstructures And Mechanical Properties

Microstructures and mechanical properties of lap fillet welded joints of several high and ultra-high tensile strength steel by arc welding were investigated. Steel plates having tensile strength of 400 (SPH400W), 590 (SPC590Y, SPC590R), 980 (SPC980Y) and 1500 MPa (SAC1500HP) class with 2 mm thickness were prepared. Four types of joints were formed by MAG welding; SPH400W/SPH400W, SPC590Y/SPC590Y, SPC980Y/SPC980Y and SAC1500HP/SPC590R. In joints with SPC590Y, SPC980Y and SAC1500HP steel which matrixes are martensitic microstructures, the HAZ softens due to transformation of martensite into ferrite with precipitating cementite. By using high and ultra-high tensile strength steel, the weld metal is strengthened due to dilution of the matrix into the weld metal and thus tensile shear strength of the welded joint increases. In the fatigue test, similar S-N diagrams were obtained in the all welded joints investigated. It seems that the effect of stress concentration due to the shape of the welded joint on fatigue properties is larger than that of the strength of the matrix.

The Impact

The weldablity of dissimilar steel between 16MnR and S31803 was analyzed and researched. By means of optical microscope (OM), the microstructure of the weld joint was investigated, which is welded by tungsten inert gas arc backing welding (GTAW) and manual arc filling welding (SMAW). The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the welded joint was also tested and studied. Results indicate that austenite and acicular ferrite distribute uniformly in the weld metal, which strengths the toughness and ductility of the joint. The austenite content in weld is higher than that in over-heated zone of S31803.The SMAW joint structure is coarsening than that of GTAW and has more austenite content. It is also observed that there are a decarburization layer and a carbon-enriched zone nearby the fusion line. And very small amounts of the third phase of harmful metal phase are found in the fusion zone of S31803 side. The welded joint shows the excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The impact toughness of the weld metal is higher than in HAZ of 16MnR side, and the impact toughness at GTAW side and in HAZ is superior to the SMAW side.
