Microstructure and Hardness of NbC Dispersed Ni-Cr Overlay Weld Alloy

Ultrasonic Examination of a Weld Repair in Ni-based Alloy

The anisotropic, heterogeneous and coarse granular structures of austenitic stainless steel welds lead to important disturbances of the ultrasonic propagation: beam skewing and splitting, attenuation, backscattering and spurious echoes. These disturbances have been studied by EDF R&D for a few years in order to improve the ultrasonic NDT in nuclear applications. In particular, a methodology for...

Evaluation of microstructure and mechanical properties of 410NiMo as an overlay layer on low alloy steel

The aim of this study is to reach an increased service life for parts using in sour environment by weld overlaying process. In this investigation, two successive layers of ER410NiMo were clad on low alloy steel substrates. To reduce the likelihood of Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) and producing stable hydrogen traps, Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) was conducted. Microstructural analysis, X-ra...

Diffraction studies on Ni-Co and Ni-Cr alloy thin films

Evaluation of marginal and internal gaps of Ni-Cr and Co-Cr alloy copings manufactured by microstereolithography

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal and internal gaps of Ni-Cr and Co-Cr copings, fabricated using the dental µ-SLA system. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten study dies were made using a two-step silicone impression with a dental stone (type IV) from the master die of a tooth. Ni-Cr (NC group) and Co-Cr (CC group) alloy copings were designed using a dental scanner, CAD soft...
