Abstract To investigate the influence of post-weld heat treatment on the microstructure and corrosion properties of super duplex stainless steel welded joints, multi-layer multi-pass welding of 2507 super duplex stainless steel by tungsten argon arc welding was performed using an ER2594 welding wire. The microstructures of the welded joints before and after post-weld heat treatment at 1150 °C, 1170 °C and 1190 °C were observed, and the mechanical and corrosion properties were tested. The post-weld heat treatment changed the austenite content and morphology of the welded joint and improved the corrosion resistance of different parts of the weld metal. The choice of various solution heat treatment temperatures affected the change in austenite content in the weld zone and the degree of diffusion and homogenization of the alloy elements. After post-weld heat treatment at 1170 °C, the two-phase ratios in each area of the weld were the most suitable and uniform, and the overall mechanical and corrosion properties of the joint were more uniform.

Abstract In this research, the effect of the addition of nickel powder and the application of a post weld heat treatment (PWHT) on the welding properties of the UNS S32304 lean duplex stainless steel were investigated in order to improve the microstructure and mechanical properties. Nickel powder was directly poured inside the joint gap and mixed with the filler metal during the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) process; moreover, the solution heat treatment was performed at 1100 °C for 10 min. The joints were characterized by optical microscopy (OM) and the evolution of the phase percentages in the different zones was studied by means of the image analysis technique. Tensile and hardness tests were carried out on the joints in order to evaluate the improvement of the mechanical properties. The results showed that both the addition of nickel powder during the welding process and the post weld heat treatment made it possible to improve the mechanical properties of the weld joints. PWHT had the best effect in restoring the equal percentage of ferrite and austenite compared to the addition of nickel powder.

In this research, the post weld heat treatment (PWHT) of duplex stainless steel (DSS) was study. The PWHT process can be affected by differing parameters. The specimen was duplex stainless steel UNS31803 grade sheet of 10 mm thickness. The PWHT parameters were analyzed by application of full factorial design. The factors used in this study were PWHT temperature of 650, 750, and 850๐C with PWA time of 1, 2, 4 and 8 hours. The welded specimens were tested with micro vickers hardness and ferrite content testing according to ASTM E3-11 code. The result showed that both of PWHT temperature and PWHT time interaction on hardness and ferrite content for 95% confidential (P value < 0.05). The factor in most effect of hardness was the PWHT temperature of 850๐C and PWHT time for 4 hour at the hardness of 277.73 HV. The ferrite was the most ferrite content for 77.39% resulted in corrosion resistance due to suitable of PWHT temperature 750๐C and PWHT time for 8 hour. Finally, form PWHT process with the information was used choosing the appropriate for PWHT parameters to duplex stainless steel welds.
