Determination of inclusion chemistry and size distribution in steel weldments by analytical electron microscopy

The U.S. Navy has been concerned about reducing the number of inclusions in steel weldments to increase the toughness of the weld metal. Research has shown that particular inclusions can nucleate the acicular ferrite micro structure in the weld metal, which can increase toughness without compromisin...
