Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of structure nickel sheet welded joints made by applying Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) method. Based on results of metallographic examination, HV5 hardness measurements, Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the welds it was found that the joints were characterized with a three-zone structure with large columnar dendrites in the welds. Columnar dendrites show a mosaic substructure with uniformly distributed carbides of M3C type rich in nickel.
