Abstract

Welding is the most convenient fabrication process with tremendous development in past few decades. The noteworthy technique is Activated flux TIG welding method (also known as A-TIG welding) that was well-equipped a little while back, which enhances productivity and quality of weld joints by better depth of penetration. In this research work, the electrochemical studies are performed to investigate the corrosion resistance of excellent depth of penetration A-TIG welded 316L stainless steel (SS316L) sample at room temperature. At dilute aqueous ambience, Potentiodynamic studies reveal that the SS316L welding joints have an apathetic attitude with certain range. Electrochemical Impedance calculations illustrate the breakdown occurs due to corrosion in alkaline circumstances.
