Evaluation of the Microstructure of 600 and 617 Nickel Alloys Subjected to Arc Welding
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Spawalnictwa - Year 2016, Vol 60, Issue 6
Abstract
The paper presents the results concerning the assessment of the microstructure 600 and 617 nickel alloys. Test alloys delivered as plates were exposed to welding arc applied in the TIG method. The assessment involving the microstructure of the fusion zone, heat affected zone and of the base material was performed using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results revealed significant differences in the structures of the fusion zone in 600 and 617 alloys resulting from various chemical compositions as well as from the significant segregation of the alloying elements between dendrites and interdendritic zones.
