摘要

Government regulations in the United States (OSHA Standards: 1910; 1915; 1917; 1918; 1926) and abroad are decreasing allowable exposure levels of hexavalent chromium to welding related personnel. The latest OSHA ruling in 2006 reduced the permissible exposure limit of airborne hexavalent chromium from 52 to 5 mug m-3. Achieving the new level may not be practical from an engineering controls standpoint during the fabrication of tightly enclosed stainless steel components such as the inside of ship hulls and boiler vessels. One method of addressing this problem is to implement a chromium-free welding consumable that provides equivalent mechanical performance and corrosion characteristics to current stainless steel welding consumables. This project was aimed at developing such a consumable and evaluating its suitability for replacement of current stainless steel consumables such as E308L-16. A new shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) consumable based on the Ni-Cu-Ru system was developed for austenitic stainless steel welding. The focus of this work was evaluating the mechanical properties, weldability, and fume formation characteristics of the various iterations of consumables developed. Welds deposited on Type 304 stainless steel were evaluated with weldability tests including: mechanical testing, hot ductility testing, Strain-to-fracture testing, Transverse Varestraint testing, and button melting.;Mechanical properties of weld deposits of each consumable were found to exceed minimum values of Type 304 stainless steel based on tensile testing. Guide bend testing showed that weld deposits met minimum weld ductility requirements for stainless steel consumables, such as E308-16.;Hot ductility testing revealed a narrow crack susceptible region (33 to 54°C) indicating a low susceptibility to weld metal liquation cracking. GTA welds exhibited superior ductility when compared to SMA welds. This was attributed to a lack of slag inclusions in the weld deposit, which are effective weld strengtheners.;Varestraint testing revealed that weld deposits have a higher solidification cracking susceptibility than stainless steel consumables used to join Type 304. Higher cracking susceptibility was attributed to austenitic solidification of the weld metal resulting in increased weld segregation and stabilization of a TiC eutectic reaction at the end of solidification. No solidification cracks were observed in actual weld deposits.;Evaluation of weld microsegregation patterns showed higher dilutions of Type 304 increased segregation of Ti, promoting a TiC eutectic reaction at the end of solidification. Thermodynamic modeling techniques were used to describe the solidification the Ni-Cu weld deposits as a function of dilution with Type 304. Solidification cracking susceptibility was shown to increase with dilution during evaluation with the Cast Pin Tear Test indicating high dilution welds should be avoided to minimize solidification cracking during welding.;The Strain-to-fracture test was used to examine DDC cracking susceptibility, and revealed that this alloy has a higher susceptibility to solid-state weld cracking than austenitic stainless alloys such as 304. Threshold strain levels necessary to initiate cracking in the weld deposits were in the range of 2 to 3%. These values are comparable to other Ni-base alloys with a moderate to high susceptibility to DDC.;Fume generation rates (FGR) of the new consumable were measured and bulk fume phases were analyzed with X-ray diffraction. FGR values were found to be similar to current SMAW and flux cored arc welding consumables. No chromium bearing compounds were observed during X-ray diffraction measurements, and the bulk fume consisted primarily of halides and metallic-oxides. Fume generated by the new consumable was subjected to colorimetric testing showing hexavalent Cr content (0.02 wt-%) was reduced by two orders of magnitude compared to E308-16 (2.6 wt-%). The source of this hexavalent chromium was from evaporation of the base metal due to the welding heat source.;The consumable developed in this study, having a nominal composition of Ni-7.5Cu-1Ru-0.5Al-0.5Ti-0.02C, met virtually all the design criteria that were initially established. Work performed by the Fontana Corrosion Center showed that the weld deposits met corrosion design criteria to prevent localized attack of the weld metal. Work performed in this study showed that mechanical properties were comparable to stainless steel consumables, and weld cracking susceptibility was comparable to Ni-base welding consumables. The consumable was also found to have good operability characteristics. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
