Abstract:
Microstructure of welding joints in TC4 alloy manufactured by laser processing was investigated by optical microscope and scanning electron microscopy. The microhardness from weld center of the joint to base metal was measured. The results show that, in the base metal, the microstructure is consisted of α phase and dispersed granular β. Microstructure of the welding joint is composed of coarse equiaxed zone, columnar grain zone, fine equiaxed zone and reheat microstructure. The structure in the coarse equiaxed zone is consisted of platelet α+β, widmanstatten structure α and basket weave α+β, which microhardness is lower than that of the columnar grain zone and fine equiaxed zone, but higher than the base metal. The structure in the columnar grain zone and fine equiaxed zone is mainly needle-shaped martensite. The microhardness of the columnar grain is the highest in the joint. The microhardness of HAZ is close to that of base metal.
