Abstract

In order to reduce the material costs of white-goods made of stainless steels, tailored constructions with unequally alloyed stainless steels shall be used. For that purpose nickel-alloyed austenitic stainless steels are supposed to be limited to zones with demanding needs for corrosions resistance, whereas nickel-free ferritic stainless steels provide an attractive cost-performance ratio for the remaining components of a system. Particularly the present article discusses the corrosion performance of austenitic-ferritic connections, welded with high-power disc lasers at accelerated feed rates, as a function of the shielding gas composition and the surface condition. © Copyright SPIE.
