Abstract
The microstructural evolution, mechanical and electrochemical properties of the rotary friction welding joint of 1MnCrMoNi maraging steel were investigated after post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). The joint could be divided into two zones: weld zone and thermo-mechanically affected zone. After PWHT, the parallel alignment of the laths turned ‘blurred’; sub-grain and cell structure appeared; M23C6 and -Cu precipitated, respectively; the joint was softened. But the microhardness was still higher than that of base materials and distributed unevenly. The closer it was to the weld centre, the higher the microhardness was. No deformation occurred in the joints during tensile test, indicating the excellent bonding strength. PWHT process slightly reduced the impact toughness and corrosion resistance of the joint.
