Introduction
Stainless steel Titanium Incompatibility- Brittle Intermetallic phases (IMCs)
forms (FeTi, FeTi2)
Enhanced by time-
temperature profile
To avoid IMCs:
Welding process control
Weld metal engineering
Welding process control
Principle: With lower heat input and interaction time, lower IMCS will be induced.
Studies made earlier:
Diffusion bonding: Produced a joint having reaction layer of79.9 m but it had a
tensile strength of 344.3 MPa and an elongation of 12.8 %.( D.poddar)
Friction Stir Welding: TiFe IMC compounds was detected
strength of the sample was attributed to the bimetallic vortices
that contributed to a mechanical interlock
Explosive welding: defect free joints, no IMCs were detected, but low flexibility
Keyhole Laser Welding: Flexible, still sound joint not obtained
Weld metal engineering
Principle: Addition of a third metal that inhibits IMC
formation or modifies IMC composition to make it tougher.
Silver and silver alloys- low m,p and high compatibility
towards Fe
Nickel- m.p is higher than Ag, but very compatible with Fe
Ni- Ag combination
In this Study:
Copper: lower melting temperature vs mechanical
properties relationship.
IMC phases produced with Ti are tougher than the FeTi
IMC.
Schematics from the weldingbrazing
Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) welding process used - technique
modified GMAW, low heat input, flexible
Weld bead geometry
Traces of oxidation on top surface
Influenced by heat input or wire feed
speed
At low heat input , undercut at Fe-Cu
interface is observed
Hardness Evaluation
S 0.09
The Ultimate tensile Strength of each sample was calculated using the
thickest value for the cross-sectional area of each sample and the maximum
thickness of the sample.
The welded sample show an increase of tensile strength with the increase of
heat input.
The welding wire positioning does not seem to be a controlling parameter of
this welding pocess.
The samples present with higher tensile load also have the maximum strain.
The mechanical test results shows an increase in the ductility of the sample
as well.
Conclusion
It was possible to join stainless steel and Ti using CuSi-3
welding wire.
The heat input was the dominant parameter in the process.
The inter metallic phase formation was not avoided.
The IMCs formed were more ductile in nature as compared to
Fe-Ti IMC.
The inter metallics are mainly present at the interfaces
between the parent metals and the Cu.
