Popis: | This research manuscript compares the metallurgical changes and mechanical behavior of AISI 316 and Monel 400 dissimilar weldments developed by Interpulse TIG welding process with ERNiCrMo-3 and ER316 filler wires. Metallurgical aspects are envisioned by using optical and scanning electron microscopes. Mechanical behavior of welded joints were studied by conducting tensile and microhardness tests. Metallurgical study has shown that the ERNiCrMo-3 filler weldment divulged completely with austenitic phase structure at the weld zone. Also, at the HAZ of Monel 400 clear grain boundaries with fine grains were observed. The mechanical properties corroborated that the weld strength of ERNiCrMo-3 weldment was found better than the ER316 weldment. Microhardness on the weldment made of ERNiCrMo-3 filler has shown higher values than that of base metals. Weldment made by ER316 was observed to fail near the interface of Monel 400 under tensile test due to the existence of micro-pores and partially melted zones. Further, the metallurgical and mechanical properties are compared with that of the weldment developed by TIG welding process. |
