摘要
The serious interferences from the surrounding water severely limit the process stability and joint quality of the current underwater welding technologies. To effectively isolate the welding area, a mixture of epoxy resin and submerged-arc flux was innovatively prepositioned in the welding area during underwater welding process. Butt welding experiments of a typical high strength marine steel were conducted to verify the advantages of this technique. Compared with the traditional underwater wet welding, underwater submerged-arc welding significantly optimized the arc burning environment due to the covering and isolation, which effectively improved the stability of welding process. Defectless joints with microstructure that full of fine acicular ferrite and high-quality mechanical properties, especially, outstanding performance of ultimate strength and plasticity were obtained. The results are expected to positively widen the practical application of underwater welding in many water related industries. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
