Partial Report on Research on the Weldability of Iron Alloys Development of Manganese-Silicon High-Tensile Steels

Abstract

A study has been made of the weldability of 48 experimental manganese-silicon steels with and without titanium or vanadium additions and additions and 19 commercial steels including one mild steel and 18 high-tensile manganese steels. The experimental manganese-silicon steels without vanadium and titanium had better weldability than the commercial carbon-manganese steels, and compared favorably with commercial vanadium and titanium high-tensile steels. The manganese-silicon steels have less tendency for under-bead cracking tendency for both commercial and experimental steels.
