Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The microstructure and the element and phase compositions of the zone of deposited metal, of the fusion zone, and of the heat-affected zone in welds of Fe3Al intermetallic with austenitic steels are studied by methods of light and scanning microscopy, microscopic x-ray spectrum analysis, and x-ray diffraction analysis. Argon arc welding is used to obtain beads of corrosion-resistant austenitic steels 08Kh18N10, 10Kh17N13M2T, 20Kh23N13, and 20Kh23N18 on the surface of a Fe3Al intermetallic.
