Abstract
The paper anlyses the influence of the environment on gas content and density of a high-nickel (60-70 % Ni) weld metal, structure and properties of different zones of the welded joint. In order to improve the indices of their mechanical properties, the alloying, modifying and surface-active elements should be further added to the charge of the flux-cored wire.
Keywords: underwater welding, flux-cored wire, deposited metal, HAZ, gas content, structure, mechanical properties
