Friction stir welding (FSW) was successfully performed about 900MPa grade Twinning Induced Plastisity (TWIP) steel. A PCBN tool with convex-type shoulder was applied. Optimal process conditions were deduced. Microstructure and mechanical properties such as hardness, tensile strength and impact absorbed energy were observed and evaluated, respectively. An optical microscope (OM) and a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) was selected for observing the grain structure. |
