Chemical composition effect on the weld properties for low temperature steel was evaluated. The alloy elements of interest at the weld metal were Cr and Mo, which come from the steel plate and welding wire, respectively. Both side one run SAW process was carried out in a Ygroove butt joint. Microstructure of the weld metal is strongly dependent on the chemical composition of the steel plate and the welding wire, due to high dilution. The microstructure of the weld metal became fine acicular ferrite by increasing Cr and Mo content because of high hardenability effect. The weld metal having Cr and Mo possessed the highest impact toughness at low temperatures among the weld metals studied. Cr seems to have more effect than Mo on the toughness of the weld metal.

With Al-Si welding wire ER4043, lap joint between aluminium and titanium alloy was made by MIG welding-brazing process with nocolok flux aiding filler metal in promoting metal wettability. A thin intermetallic compound layer was formed at the interface between the weld metal and titanium alloy and the layer mainly consits of TiAl3 phase. The tensile strength of the joint can reach 151MPa and fracture occurred in aluminium base metal.

Laser welded high purity V-4Cr-4Ti alloy (NIFS-HEAT2), fabricated by National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS), was used for this study. Copper ion irradiation was carried out with the tandem accelerator at Kyushu University. The TEM samples were sliced from the welded materials and irradiated at 573 and 873K up to the dose of 12 dpa. The microstructure before irradiation showed that relatively large precipitates, which were commonly observed in NIFS-HEAT2, disappeared in the center of the weld metal. After the ion irradiation, fine titanium oxides with {100} habit planes were detected even at the dose of 0.75 dpa. However, less number density of these oxides were observed in the base metal after the same irradiation conditions. This means that the behaviors of oxygen atoms, which dissolved from the large precipitates during the laser welding, is essential to the microstructural evolution of welded V-4Cr-4Ti alloys.

690 nickel-based welding materials are widely applied on nuclear equipment manufacturing. While the nickel-based welding metal bath has the properties of high viscosity and poor fluidity, resulting in high susceptibility to welding cracking of the nickel-based weld metal, especially ductility dip cracking. As the nuclear key equipments serve in a severe condition combined with high pressure & temperature and corrosive atmosphere, the existence of micro crack would greatly affect the life expansion of the equipments. In this paper, WHS690M -alloy welding wire was developed in order to meet the requirement of CAP1400 nuclear power plant, which has good welding performance. Strain-to-fracture (STF) test based on Gleeble-3500 thermo-mechanical simulator was performed to evaluate the DDC susceptibility of Inconel 52M and WHS690M weld by different welding parameters. And combined with EBSD, the characteristics of grain orientation was also analyzed. The minimum critical strain in STF test appeared at 1050°C, and the value reached 3.2% for WHS690M while 2.1% for Inconel 52M. Furthermore, the critical strain for both WHS690M and Inconel 52M groove weld metal was about 2.0%, which was lower than cladding metal.

Welding distortion during welding is an inevitable outcome of weld metal shrinkage due to non-uniform heating and cooling in welded joints. Several studies have investigated methods of estimating and controlling welding distortion in order to construct steel structures correctly, easily and efficiently. In the present study, the effect of transformation expansion of the weld metal on welding distortion was investigated in order to develop a welding wire that reduces welding distortion. Concretely, experiments and numerical simulations were performed on the effect of the transformation temperature of the weld metal on angular distortion of a horizontal fillet welded joint. The results showed that angular distortion of the welded joint decreases when the martensitic transformation start temperature of the weld metal decreases in the range from 350°C to 450°C. Based on this result, a welding wire that is effective in reducing welding angular distortion was developed considering usability, weldability and the mechanical properties of welded joints.
