    Abstract

    Ferritic Fe-22Cr-3Mo-5Ni-0.3Ru alloy was welded by electron beam (EB) and laser techniques. Tensile tests, impact tests, oxalic acid etch, electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation (EPR) and potential-time measurements were employed to investigate the mechanical properties, microstructural features and corrosion behaviour of the EB and laser welded metals. The oxalic acid etch tests revealed that the microstructure of the EB and laser welded metals consisted of columnar grains and cells, respectively. These structures were formed directly from the substrate by epitaxial solidification. Furthermore, the oxalic acid tests also showed that the EB and laser welded metals were immune to intergranular corrosion. Similar results were obtained by double loop EPR tests. © 1994 Chapman & Hall.
