Dissimilar Metals Welding of CP Titanium to 304 Stainless Steel Using GTAW Process

Abstract:

This study involves V-groove butt welding of CP Titanium to 304 stainless steel by the gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process without and with buttering layer at the 304 stainless steel base metal. ERCuSn-A and ERNiCu-7 were chosen as a filler metals. Investigations including visual testing (VT), microhardness testing and metallurgical analysis were carried out by means of variable welding parameters. The experimental results showed that using the ERCuSn-A filler metal without and with buttering layer, any surface defect was not observed in the dissimilar metals welded specimen but an underbead crack was found at weld metal adjacent to the Ti/weld metal interface. Using the ERNiCu-7 filler metal without buttering layer, linear porosity was observed at weldment. However, using ERNiCu-7 filler metal with buttering layer, defect-free welded specimen could be achieved. The results of EDS analysis indicated that at Ti/weld metal interface, Ti diffused from the Ti base metal to the weld metal. At 304 stainless steel/weld metal interface, Fe, Ni and Cr diffused from the 304 stainless steel base metal to the weld metal.
