Fe-Cr-C ceramic composite coating was fabricated on substrate of Q235 steel by submerged-arc welding process added alloy powder using the material of chromium powder, iron powder, colloid graphite powder and H08 welding wire. Microstructure and wear properties of the composite coating were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron micrograph (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS) and microhardness tester. wearresisting property of the coating was tested at room temperature and dry sliding wear conditions. Results show that the composite coating consists of (Cr,Fe)7C3 eutectic phase and austenite. There are many dendrite crystal structure in the coating, and most of the dendrite crystal are parallel, pointing to the surface of the coating. The wear mass loss of the base body Q235 steel is 10 times higher as that of the composite coating. The coating has excellent wear-resisting property because there are many eutectic carbide (Cr,Fe)7C3. It can increase wear resisting property of the coating that the austenite could occurr strain and induced martensite in the coating during wear.

TiC particle reinforced Fe-based composite clad layer were in situ synthesized on surface of Q235 steel by Submerged arc Welding of the mixed powder of ferrotitanium, iron, chromium, nickel and colloidal graphite, etc. Microstructure of the clad layer were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Energy Disperse Spectroscopy (EDS). Wear resistance of the clad layer was tested on wear tester at room temperature compared with the base material Q235 steel. Microhardness of the clad layer was measured by microhardness tester. Results indicated that the fine TiC particles were formed by Submerged-arc Welding process, and the the TiC particles were dispersed in the matrix. The size of TiC particles was less than 2 μm. The microstructure of cladding layer consisted of TiC particles, martensite and austenite. The average microhardness of clad layer was HV0.2601, which was about 3 times as high as the based metal Q235. On the conditions of same wear and room temperature, the weight loss of the base material Q235 is 10-15 times as much as the composite clad layer. The weight loss increase of the clad layer has a little change with the increase of load and the change of load is not sensitive to the weight loss of the clad layer. The clad layer has good load characteristics.

TiC particle reinforced iron based composite coating were in situ synthesized on surface of Q235 steel by Submerged-arc Welding (SAW) using the mixture consisted of ferrotitanium, ferrochromium, iron and carbon powders. Microstructure of the coating was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM)and X-ray diffraction(XRD). Microhardness was measured by microhardness tester. Results indicated that the fine TiC particles were formed by using SAW process and dispersed in the matrix. And the particles sizes were less than 2μm. Microstructure of coating consists of TiC particles, martensite and austenite. The microhardness of coating is HV575~HV617, which is about 3 times of that of the based metal.

The Arctic region is expected to play an extremely prominent role in the future of the oil and gas industry as growing demand for natural resources leads to greater exploitation of a region that holds about 25% of the world’s oil and gas reserves. It has become clear that ensuring the necessary reliability of Arctic industrial structures is highly dependent on the welding processes used and the materials employed. The main challenge for welding in Arctic conditions is prevention of the formation of brittle fractures in the weld and base material. One mitigating solution to obtain sufficiently low-transition temperatures of the weld is use of a suitable welding process with properly selected parameters. This work provides a comprehensive review with experimental study of modified submerged arc welding processes used for Arctic applications, such as narrow gap welding, multi-wire welding, and welding with metal powder additions. Case studies covered in this article describe welding of Arctic steels such as X70 12.7-mm plate by multi-wire welding technique. Advanced submerged arc welding processes are compared in terms of deposition rate and welding process operational parameters, and the advantages and disadvantages of each process with respect to low-temperature environment applications are listed. This article contributes to the field by presenting a comprehensive state-of-the-art review and case studies of the most common submerged arc welding high deposition modifications. Each modification is reviewed in detail, facilitating understanding and assisting in correct selection of appropriate welding processes and process parameters.

The high-strength low-alloy microalloyed steel was procured as a hot rolled plate with accelerated cooling. The Gleeble thermal simulated process involved heating the steel specimens to the peak temperature of 1400 °C, with constant cooling rates of 3.75 °C/s and 2 °C/s to room temperature. The four-wire tandem submerged arc welding process, with different heat input, was used to generate a welded microstructure. The martensite/austenite constituent appeared in the microstructure of the heat affected zone region for all the specimens along the prior-austenite grain boundaries and between bainitic ferrite laths. The blocky-like and stringer martensite/austenite morphology were observed in the heat affected zone regions. The martensite/austenite constituents were obtained by a combination of field emission scanning electron microscopes and image analysis software The Charpy absorbed energy of specimens was assessed using Charpy impact testing at-50 °C. Brittle particles, such as martensite/austenite constituent along the grain boundaries, can make an easy path for crack propagation. Similar crack initiation sites and growth mechanism were investigated for specimens welded with different heat input values.

The quality of joining has assumed a greater role in fabrication of metal in recent years, because of the development of new alloys with tremendously increased strength and toughness. Submerged arc welding is a high heat input fusion welding process in which weld is produced by moving localized heat source along the joint. The weld quality in turn affected by thermal cycle that the weldment experiences during the welding. In the present study a simple comprehensive mathematical model has been developed using a moving heat source and analyzing the temperature on one section and then the temperature distribution of other section are correlated with time delay with reference analyzed section.

Abstract In the study for this contribution, production of in situ synthesized TiB2 particles in iron-based composite coatings using four different submerged arc welding powders (fluxes) containing increasing amounts of ferrotitanium and ferroboron with S1 welding wire, were targeted. For this purpose, coating deposition was carried out to improve the hardness and wear properties of the AISI 1020 steel surfaces using hybrid submerged arc welding. In hybrid submerged arc welding, the welding pool is protected by both welding powders and an argon gas atmosphere. To examine the composite coatings, visual, chemical, microstructural analyses and hardness and wear tests were carried out. With the use of increasing amounts of ferrotitanium and ferroboron in the welding powders, it was observed that the microstructure of the coatings changed in terms of TiB2 particle geometries such as rectangular and hexagonal; volume fractions of TiB2 particles in the coating microstructures increased; hardness values of coatings were enhanced from 34 HRC to 41 HRC; the wear resistance of the coatings improved, and worn surface images of the coatings caused by the counter body changed from continuous with deep scratches to discontinuous with fine scratches and crater cavities.
