Abstract
Solute segregation on a macroscopic scale in a weld between two dissimilar metals or alloys has long been recognized, but fundamental understanding of macrosegregation in dissimilar-metal welding is still lacking. Two mechanisms for macrosegregation were proposed based on the liquidus temperature of the bulk weld metal, TLW, relative to the liquidus temperature of metal 1, TL1, and the liquidus temperature of metal 2, TL2. According to the mechanisms, two distinctly different macrosegregation features can form. A “peninsula” of an unmixed metal 1 can form if TLW < TL1. On the other hand, a “beach” of unmixed metal 2 irregular in shape can form if TLW > TL2. To verify the mechanisms, a pure Cu sheet was butt welded to a low carbon steel sheet by gas-tungsten arc welding without a filler metal. Composition measurements were conducted inside and across the weld metal. A peninsula of unmixed steel and an irregular-shaped beach of unmixed Cu were observed, which verified the mechanisms. In addition, the bulk weld metal exhibited a layered structure caused by undercooling of the bulk weld pool into a metastable miscibility gap in the Cu-Fe phase diagram. Macrosegregation in previous studies on laser- and electron-beam welding of Cu to steel or stainless steel was discussed in light of the findings in the present study.
