Abstract

Butt joints of QCr0.8/1Cr21Ni5Ti equal-thickness dissimilar materials were obtained by electron beam welding with fixed accelerating voltage 60 kV and focus current 1.99 A, changed electron beam current and welding velocity. Microstructure and composition of the EBW joint were investigated by means of optical micrography and EDX analysis, and mechanical properties of the joint were also tested. The results show that joint's macrostructure was divided into three zones: top weld zone near QCr0.8 and bottom weld zone consisting of Cu(ss. Fe) with a certain amount of dispersedly distributed (α + ε) mixed microstructure, middle weld zone consisting of (α + ε) microstructure with a small amount of Cu(ss. Fe) particles. Morphological inhomogeneous macrostructure and uneven chemical composition of QCr0.8/1Cr21Ni5Ti joint by EBW are the most important factor to result in decreasing joining strength.
