Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shielding gas for use in the arc welding of metallic work pieces.
  • the invention further relates to a process for arc welding metallic work pieces using consumable electrodes, whereby a stream of shielding gas is supplied to the work piece, adjacent to the electrode.
  • shielding gases for use in the welding of metals under a shielding gas are known, wherein different shielding gases may be used, depending upon the composition or the material of the work piece to be welded, and/or upon the nature of the welding process.
  • Gas shielded welding can be broken down, based upon the type of electrodes used, into gas-shielded metal arc welding (MSG welding), which uses consumable electrodes, and welding processes that use non-consumable electrodes, such as tungsten inert-gas welding (TIG welding).
  • MSG welding gas-shielded metal arc welding
  • MAG welding active-gas metal arc welding
  • MIG welding inert-gas metal arc welding
  • Linde Gas AG markets two shielding gases for welding under the names CRONIGON® He 50 S or CRONIGON® He 30 S. These gas mixtures contain 0.05% by volume CO 2 , 50% by volume helium, with the remainder argon, or 0.05% by volume CO 2 , 30% by volume helium, 2% by volume H 2 , and the remainder argon (comp. for example Linde brochure “Shielding Gases for Welding”).
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a shielding gas and a process of the type described at the beginning whereby improvements on or alternatives to known shielding gases for welding are disclosed.
  • the object of the invention is further to propose shielding gases for welding with which rust-proof metallic materials, especially the above-mentioned high-temperature nickel-based alloys, but also high-alloy steels, can be welded using an MSG or MAG process.
  • a further object of the invention is to achieve the high level of corrosion resistance of the base material in the weld seam, especially with corrosion-resistant alloys.
  • the shielding gas contains no helium, it contains carbon dioxide in a proportion of between 0.001% by volume and 1.9% by volume, and
  • the shielding gas does contain helium, it contains carbon dioxide in a proportion of between 0.001% by volume and 0.9% by volume,
  • the shielding gas contains no helium, it can contain carbon dioxide in a proportion of between 0.01% by volume and 1.5% by volume and
  • the shielding gas does contain helium, it can contain carbon dioxide in a proportion of between 0.01% by volume and 0.8% by volume,
  • the helium-free shielding gas can contain 0.001 and 0.9% by volume carbon dioxide, preferably between 0.01 and 0.8% by volume carbon dioxide, in addition to argon and nitrogen.
  • a helium-free shielding gas it is understood that the shielding gas contains no helium with the exception of possible contaminations or impurities.
  • the shielding gas contains between 0.01 and 0.5% by volume carbon dioxide, preferably between 0.01 and 0.45% by volume carbon dioxide, most preferably between 0.01 and 0.1% by volume carbon dioxide.
  • the shielding gas it has proven favorable for the shielding gas to contain between 0.1 and 20% by volume nitrogen, preferably between 0.5 and 15% by volume nitrogen, particularly preferably between 1 and 10% by volume, and most preferably between 2.5 and 7.5% by volume nitrogen.
  • the shielding gas contains 70% by volume or less helium.
  • the shielding gas it is preferable for the shielding gas to contain between 1 and 50% by volume helium, preferably between 2 and 30% by volume helium, particularly preferably between 3 and 20% by volume helium, and most preferably between 5 and 10% by volume helium.
  • the shielding gas can be comprised
  • the use of a shielding gas mixture having a composition that fulfills the standards listed above for use in the MSG welding, in particular the MAG welding, of rust-proof steels, especially nickel-based materials, specialty steels, or high-alloy steels, is recommended.
  • high-temperature nickel-based alloys such as alloy 602 CA (material No. 2.4633) can be MAG welded.
  • the mechanical-technological properties of the weld seam are nearly completely retained, as compared with the base material.
  • the shielding gas specified in the invention contains argon, and if applicable helium, in addition to carbon dioxide and nitrogen.
  • the portion of CO 2 presumably promotes arc stabilization and the prevention of fusion problems.
  • the share of nitrogen presumably exerts a metallurgical influence. Also probable is a desirable effect on the absorption of nitrogen in the welding material by the CO 2 .
