Abstract

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welded joints between Zircaloy-4 and stainless steel 304L have been studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) having energy dispersive system (EDS) as an attachment. Intermetallic compound Zr(Cr, Fe)2 and Zr2Fe–Zr2Ni eutectic phase have been observed in the molten zone. The surface area occupied by intermetallic compound Zr(Cr, Fe)2 is about twice compared to Zr2Fe–Zr2Ni eutectic phase. The shape of the intermetallic compound is rod like. The phases were also identified by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. EDS and XRD results are quite in agreement.
