High-Mn and high-Nb anti-crack-defect nickel-based welding wire and welding method

Abstract

The invention provides a high-Mn and high-Nb anti-crack-defect nickel-based welding wire and a welding method. The high-Mn and high-Nb anti-crack-defect nickel-based welding wire comprises, by weight, less than 0.04% of C, 0.10-0.20% of Si, 3.8-4.2% of Mn, less than 0.003% of S, less than 0.003% of P, 28.0-31.5% of Cr, less than 0.01% of Mo, less than 0.05% of Cu, 2.2-2.5% of Nb, 0.4-0.9% of Ti, less than 0.50% of Al, 8.5-10.5% of Fe, less than 0.005%of Ca, less than 0.005% of Mg, less than 0.005% of O, 0.20-0.40% of N, less than 0.001% of B, less than 0.005% of Zr, less than 0.02% of Ta, and the balance of Ni, wherein the sum of the Mn and Nb is 6.2-6.6%; the sum of other impurity elements is less than 0.10%. The welding wire is suitable for welding of nuclear island main equipment (including bead welding of pressure vessel drive tube sockets, connection tube safety ends, reactor core bearing blocks and steam generator tube plates and welding of tubes and tube plates), and the problem that an existing welding wire is prone to having a crack defect under the field welding and other severe conditions is solved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a welding wire, specifically a nickel-based welding wire. Background technique [0002] In the 1950s, the original steam generator used Inconel600 alloy as the heat transfer tube material, so the tube sheet was welded with ERNiCr-3 welding material (Inconel82), and ERNiCr-3 welding material was also used for heat transfer tube and stacking. Welding of the solder layer. But then intergranular stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) was found in the above welds, so we started to develop new heat transfer tube materials. After a period of research, Inconel690 alloy was used as the heat transfer tube material in the 1980s. And use ERNiCrFe-7 (Inconel52) welding material for surfacing and welding. The chromium content of this material reaches about 30%, so the occurrence of intergranular stress corrosion cracks is effectively avoided. But in recent years, the U.S. Navy has discovered a defect called DDC in the weld of Inconel52. Later, aft...
