  • Welding and Joining Guidelines

    Welding and Joining Guidelines

    Welding and Joining Guidelines The HASTELLOY® and HAYNES® alloys are known for their good weldability, which is defined as the ability of a material to be welded and to perform satisfactorily in the imposed service environment. The service performance of the welded component should be given the utmost importance when determining a suitable weld process or procedure. If proper welding techniques and procedures are followed, high-quality welds can be produced with conventional arc welding processes. However, please be aware of the proper techniques for welding these types of alloys and the differences compared to the more common carbon and stainless steels. The following information should provide a basis for properly welding the HASTELLOY® and HAYNES® alloys. For further information, please consult the references listed throughout each section. It is also important to review any alloy- specific welding considerations prior to determining a suitable welding procedure. The most common welding processes used to weld the HASTELLOY® and HAYNES® alloys are the gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW / “TIG”), gas metal arc welding (GMAW / “MIG”), and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW / “Stick”) processes. In addition to these common arc welding processes, other welding processes such plasma arc welding (PAW), resistance spot welding (RSW), laser beam welding (LBW), and electron beam welding (EBW) are used. Submerged arc welding (SAW) is generally discouraged as this process is characterized by high heat input to the base metal, which promotes distortion, hot cracking, and precipitation of secondary phases that can be detrimental to material properties and performance. The introduction of flux elements to the weld also makes it difficult to achieve a proper chemical composition in the weld deposit.

    Chemical and Physical Properties of Fluxes for SAW of Low-Carbon Steels

    13 Chemical and Physical Properties of Fluxes for SAW of Low-Carbon Steels Ana Ma. Paniagua-Mercado and Victor M. Lopez-Hirata Instituto Politécnico Nacional (ESFM-ESIQIE) Mexico 1. Introduction The submerged-arc welding of steels has been used since 1930. It is well known that the mechanical properties of steel weldments depend on the chemical compositions of electrodes and fluxes. The development of welding electrodes has been based on practical experiences. The study of welding deposits by means of physical metallurgy permitted to develop electrodes and fluxes for SAW process of steels. In contrast, the use of chemical and physical properties of fluxes for the development of welding process started in the 70´s. (Shah, 1986). Most of the works concerning with the fluxes for SAW process have been focused on its effect on microstructure and mechanical properties. Likewise, it has been interesting the study of the thermochemical and electrochemical reactions that occur at the welding pool which are very important for the transferring of metallic elements to the welds. In addition to the stated above, the electrode coverings is also a very important aspect to obtain weld metal with good mechanical properties. The covering materials are fluxes which are composed of different mineral chemical compounds such as, oxides, fluorides and carbonates (Singer & Singer, 1979). The firing and sintering process of fluxes during welding electrode processing promotes chemical reactions and phase transformations of these minerals. All these factors determine the valence or electric charge of the different elements which are deposited to the weld metal. All the oxides from flux may contribute to the dissolution process of different metallic elements and oxygen in the welding pool.

This is often done by melting the workpieces and adding a filler material to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to become a strong joint, with pressure sometimes used in conjunction with heat, or by itself, to produce the weld. This is in contrast with soldering and brazing, which involve melting a lower-melting-point material between the workpieces to form a bond between them, without melting the workpieces. Many different energy sources can be used for welding, including a gas flame, an electric arc, a laser, an electron beam, friction, and ultrasound. While often an industrial process, welding can be done in many different environments, including open air, under water and in outer space. Regardless of location, welding remains dangerous, and precautions are taken to avoid burns, electric shock, eye damage, poisonous fumes, and overexposure to ultraviolet light.
