Abstract

Control of multicomponent alloys during welding is challenging because it lacks a real‐time understanding of composition. The optical emissions of plasma formed during laser‐induced metal welding correlate with the composition of particles ejected from the melt pool. Plasma emissions observed in this study contain large iron, manganese, chrome, and copper signatures, which match the composition of emitted particles. Particles recovered closest to the melt pool exhibit a core–shell morphology that is composed of iron‐manganese‐chrome intermetallic cores within copper shells. Particles collected farther from the melt pool, do not share this core–shell morphology, though similar elemental compositions are observed. The correlation between plasma optical emissions and particle composition can be used to predict the composition of the melt pool, allowing for real‐time welding and sintering control.
