No macroscopic defects occurred in the joint. The weld had mainly a dendritic structure; the base metal was a solid solution of Ni, Cr, and Fe, and the strengthening-phase particles such as Ni Nb were dispersively distributed along the grain boundary. The average tensile strength of the joint reached 743.7 MPa, 3 and the Vickers hardness of the weld exceeded HV 300. Because of the segregation of the low-melting compound Ni Nb at the grain 3 boundary of the fusion zone, liquid cracks tended to occur as a result of welding stress. The formation of liquid cracks was inhibited by adding an alloying element, Mn, to the welding bath, because Mn diffused to the fusion zone and the high-melting phase Mn2Nb formed, and thus the overall properties of the joint were improved.
