Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The ductility and strength of alloy AT6 and its weldments are high at temperatures from −60 to 500°.

  2. 2.

    The deformability of the weld seam is approximately the same as that of the base metal.

  3. 3.

    The corrosion resistance of alloy AT6 and its weldments in solutions of sulfuric, hydrochloric, and oxalic acids at concentrations >3% is lower than that of alloy AT3. The alloy and its weldments are corrosion resistant in solutions of acetic, formic, lactic, and citric acids.
