Two welding techniques were used to fabricate 9% Cr and CrMoV dissimilar welded joint. The results show that the carbon migration only appears in the specimen using narrow gap submerged arc welding （NG-SAW） technique, yet it can be effectively prevented by adding tungsten inert gas （TlG） overlaying process before the NG-SAW. The carbon migration occurred in NG-SAW resulting from the sharp transition of the strong carbide-forming element Cr between the weld （-2.7 wt%） and the base metal （- 9 wt%）. On the contrary, the application of TIG overlaying layers can promote the diffusion of Cr element, and therefore result in its much smaller concentration gradient. That is to say, a gentle transition zone of Cr element can be created among the SAW weld, TIG overlaying layers and the base metal, which effectively prevents the carbon migration and therefore produces a decreased carbon concentration adjacent to the fusion line.展开更多
