Classification of arc welding fluxes by the method of their application, manufacture, composition and type of metal being welded

V.S. Sidoruk, V.I. Galinich

E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NASU 11 Kazymyr Malevych Str., 03150, Kyiv, Ukraine.

Abstract
A classification of welding fluxes by various features is proposed. It is suggested that the number of classification parameters is increased, compared to the existing ones, namely from 1 to 12 by the application method, from 3 to 7 by the manufacturing method, from 10 to 18 by composition, and up to 26 taking into account the forecast slag compositions, etc
Keywords: classification of fluxes, designation, submerged-arc welding, open-arc welding, welding with backing flux, fused, agglomerated, ceramic, synthetic, regenerated fluxes, mechanical mixture, slag mixture
