Preliminary study on diffusion welding of marine grades grey cast iron to low carbon steel

Experimental research on joining of grey lamellar graphite cast iron to low carbon steel specimens is being performed under various diffusion welding parameters and variables to examine the effects on their microstructural and mechanical properties. Optimum conditions that produce excellent welding...
