Abstract
ABSTRACT Alloy 625 is a Ni-based alloy used in aerospace, energy, chemical, oil and gas industries, mainly as cladding material due to its corrosion resistance, high strength and creep resistance at high temperature. In this study, microstructural evaluation and susceptibility to intergranular corrosion of base metal and friction stir welded Alloy 625 were investigated. Friction stir welded joints exhibited a lower corrosion rate and degree of sensitisation compared to the base metal. It is mainly due to grain refinement and lower cooling rate of the friction stir welding process. The stir zone of the present weld has a finer grain structure and lower density of twin boundaries than the base metal and it led to the improvement of the mechanical and corrosion properties.
期刊介绍:
Corrosion Engineering, Science and Technology provides broad international coverage of research and practice in corrosion processes and corrosion control. Peer-reviewed contributions address all aspects of corrosion engineering and corrosion science; there is strong emphasis on effective design and materials selection to combat corrosion and the journal carries failure case studies to further knowledge in these areas.
