Method for extracting non-metallic weld metal inclusions

摘要

A method for analyzing non-metallic inclusions in a weld metal. The method includes etching a weld bead or weld bead sample to at least partially expose a plurality of non-metal inclusions in the weld bead or weld bead sample, applying a conductive tape to and then removing the conductive tape from at least a portion of the etched weld bead or weld bead sample, and analyzing the non-metal inclusions on the conductive tape.
