Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Welded Joints of Stainless Steel Clad Sheets Using Cr-Ni-Cu-Al Multi-Principal Filler Wires
Source abstract
Abstract
High-entropy alloys (HEAs), with the promising properties of high strength/hardness, excellent corrosion, and oxidation resistance, have a broad application prospect in the welding field. Owing to the cocktail effect of HEAs, the mechanical properties of welded joints could be improved by the composition change and alloying of multi-principal filler materials. In the present study, the joining of commercial 304/Q235 stainless steel clad sheets was taken as the research object. Three types of Cr-Ni-Cu-Al multi-principal filler wires with different Al content were designed, to study the influence of Al content on the microstructure and properties of welded joints. It was found that the grain morphologies in the weld zones were significantly changed from columnar/dendritic grains to spinodal decomposition structures, with the increase in Al content in the filler wires. The phase structures were converted from a face-centered cubic (FCC) phase into the body-centered cubic (BCC) + FCC phases. A finding was that the ultimate tensile strength of the joints was improved from ~ 379 to ~ 528 MPa, as the Al content in the filler wires was increased from 10 to 26 at.%. The hardness in the weld zones was increased by ~ 2 times. The research results could provide experimental references to modify the joint performance by using filler materials with multi-principal elements.
