High-temperature dissimilar connections built of Inconel 718 and AISI 410 martensitic stainless steel (MSS) are widely used in a range of industries, including boiler construction, the chemical industry, aerospace, and nuclear. When compared to other materials, Inconel 718 and AISI 410 martensitic stainless steel offer superior strength and corrosion resistance under a variety of environmental conditions. The rotational speed was adjusted between 1100 and 1500 RPM, while the friction pressure, friction time, forging pressure, and forging duration were all kept constant during the testing. Five sets of testing were performed, with the resultant tensile strength (both room temperature and hot tensile) and Vickers Hardness being recorded for each set of trials. To assess the structural integrity of the joints, a detailed microstructural investigation, SEM-EDS, and XRD were performed at their interfaces. Mechanical properties were revealed to be high at 1300 RPM due to the small grain size at the interface region; ultimate tensile strength and hardness were determined to be 571 MPa and 423 HV, respectively, due to the small grain size at the interface region. Additionally, a pitting corrosion study has been conducted on dissimilar welded joints at optimum conditions, and their results were discussed and compared with base metals. |
