Abstract

The use of shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) equipment to synthesize alloys is one of the most promising methods as it can be used for in-situ fabrication. The hardness and corrosion properties of the deposited layer during the welding process can be enhanced by dilution of nichrome (NiCr) during the process. Therefore, the alloy was synthesized on the surface of the mild steel using SMAW equipment with various NiCr additions. The properties of the alloy were investigated using an X-ray diffraction (XRD), an Optical microscope, a Potentiostat, and a Vickers hardness apparatus. The appearance of martensite overlaps with the ferrite phase could be affected by the addition of NiCr to the alloy. An increase in NiCr content is followed by an increase in the lattice parameter value of the ferrite phase. The presence of a certain amount of nickel (Ni) contributes to the formation of lower transformation phases, including martensite. At the same time, the incorporation of chromium (Cr) also plays a significant role in promoting the formation of acicular ferrite. An increase in NiCr content in NiCr2 and NiCr3 samples results in a quantitative increase in martensite formation. Adding 0.434 g of NiCr to the weld deposited layer could result in the corrosion rate of the alloy being 0.1118 mm/y. Higher hardness is found in the NiCr3 sample, around 742.06 HV.

Abstract

Low carbon steel cannot be hardened because of its low carbon content. Therefore, a hardfacing process is carried out to increase hardness. Apart from increasing hardness, the benefits of hardfacing can increase wear and corrosion resistance. The hardfacing process using the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process generally uses commercial electrodes. Therefore, it is necessary to add other elements such as titanium (Ti) to the weld layer to further increase its hardness. This research aims to study the influences of Titanium (Ti) addition in welding layers that were welded using HV 600 to micro and macrostructure, hardness, and corrosion rate. The hardfacing was conducted using the SMAW process with the various addition of Ti (0.115, 0.223, and 0.334 g) and cooled at room temperature. Macrostructure and microstructure were investigated using digital cameras and an optical microscope. Hardness and corrosion rate were investigated using the Vickers hardness test and weigh loss method. Based on macrostructure investigation, there is a perfect fusion between base metal and weld metal. The microstructure formed is a austenite, martensite and carbide phase. The lowest corrosion rate of 17.54 mpy was seen in the Ti1 sample. The lowest Ti addition would resulting higher hardness at 761.06 VHN.
