Abstract
ABSTRACTThis work presents friction hydro-pillar processing (FHPP) and tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding of SAF2205 duplex stainless steel. Weld microstructural and mechanical characterisation were carried out based on the standards (DNV-RP-F112 and DNV-OS-F101). Therefore, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction were used. In addition, mechanical properties were evaluated by microhardness measurements. Furthermore, the joining processes were thermodynamically simulated for confirmation of the expected phases in each welding method. It was possible to verify the phases developed after the experimental welding (FHPP and TIG) as well as the ones obtained in the thermodynamic analyses. Finally, it was noted that FHPP promoted mechanical and metallurgical features requested by the standards.
