In this paper, arc thermal spray coating was conducted onto the SS400 steel using Inconel 625 wires in order to improve the durability of marine steel structures, and then investigated cavitation damage behavior of Inconel 625 coating layer in sea water. For the Inconel 625 coating layer, surface hardness appeared similar to that of existing high velocity oxy-fuel coating technology with 380~480 HV, but the porosity of about 6 % was larger relatively. During the cavitation experiment, pit damages were originated and grown at the rough surface and pore defect area of Inconel 625 coating layer. And, after the 72 hours of experimental time, weight loss of Inconel 625 coating layer exhibited gradually increasing tendency due to surface damage effect of the undercut.

In this paper, various electrochemical experiments were conducted in seawater solution to evaluate corrosion damage behavior of arc thermal sprayed Inconel 625 coating on SS400 steel in marine environment. As a result, corrosion damages of thermal sprayed Inconel 625 coating preferentially occurred at the defect area, and they were observed as a form of pitting corrosion in the galvanostatic experiments. In Tafel analysis, corrosion current density of Inconel 625 coating was relatively high due to influence of interconnected pores and Cr oxides in the thermal spray coating layer. On the other hand, the result of the potential measurement, thermal sprayed Inconel 625 coating should need the post-treatment which can compensate the defects like pores and cracks because Inconel 625 coating presented a higher potential of about 290 mV than that of the SS400 steel.

In the conventional GMAW of 9% Ni steel, Inconel wire has been employed. The major problem of the Inconel GMAW is that arc stability and fluidity of weld pool is poor. Lack of fusion and convex weld bead is liable to occur in case of 9% Ni steel because of low melting point of Inconel wire. In this study the effect of shielding gases on the Inconel 625 GMA weldability was investigated.

In this work, Inconel 600, Inconel 625 and Haynes 230 are welding using Nd:YAG laser and electron bear. These heat-resistant alloys are typically used for the liquid thruster. To examine, the affects of experimental parameters on weld ability, the plate welding of these materials were carried out using both Nd:YAG laser and electron bear. Also, the micro-structure, micro-hardness, and tensile strength of the specimens were analyzed. from the analysis of the experimental results of laser and electron beam welding, we have obtained the optimal welding conditions.

Above all Ni-alloys Inconel 625 is used widely in plate of welding structural materials such as turbine case, a combustor of liner. In general, weldability of Inconel 625 is not well because of poorly liquids of weld metal also it have a broken probability oj the welding crack. In case of FCAW weld process, it is not easy to develope of welding materials, because it is possible only fillet welding at view position of look down except for butt welding. But recently, though it is more used by FCAW process, owing to welding materials worked at the vertical position. the study for FCAW weld of Inconel 625 is actively not yet worked. In this study, the weldability and weld characteristics(mechanical characteristics, corrosive property) of Inconel 625 are considered in FC4W weld associated with the several shielding gases$80\%Ar\;+\;20\%\;CO_2,\;50\%Ar\;+\;50\%\;CO_2,\;100\%\;CO_2$ in viewpoint of welding productivity. The results of impact test are follows; It was evaluated 70J at shielding gase of $100\%\;CO_2$, and obtained about 35J at the other shielding gases. If it was used for parts be required the impact value at the extremely low temperature, it is expected to have the advantage of using the $100\%\;CO_2$ shield gase than the others.

Inconel 625 is useful in variety of industrial applications because of the resistance to attack in various corrosive media at temperatures from $200^{circ}C$ to over $1090^{circ}C$, in combination with good low- and high-temperature mechanical strength. Recently, this material is also used widely in offshore process piping in order to extend the maintenance term and improve the quality of anti-corrosion. Nowadays, the flux cored wire is developed and applied for the better productivity in several welding position including the vertical position. In this study, the weldability and weldment characteristics of inconel 625 are considered in FCAW weld associated with the several shielding gases in viewpoint of welding productivity.

Recently, Difficult-to-cut materials are used in many manufacturing industry. But the difficult-to-cut materials are difficult-to-cutting process. So difficult to cut material cutting process was used after heat treatment through preheating for easy cutting process. In this study, Inconel 625 was preheating using laser heat source in computer simulation. Laser heat source temperature applied $1290^{\circ}C$ that suitable preheating temperature for Inconel 625. And temperature effects such as temperature distribution for moving heat source studied apply to similar actual process condition. Simulation results for heat treatment effects through temperature distribution verified.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of bonding temperature and holding time on microstructure and mechanical properties in brazing joints of Ni-base superalloy using MBF-30 (Ni-4.5Si-3.2B [wt.%]). The heating rate was $20^{\circ}C$/min to the bonding temperatures $1050^{\circ}C$, $1070^{\circ}C$, $1090^{\circ}C$ under high vacuum condition. The holding times were 100s, 400s, 900s and 1600s. $Ni_3B$ phases and proeutectic Ni were observed in the interlayer of Ni-201. Then, Ni3B and Ni3Si were found in the middle region of brazing joint. Cr-boride phase appeared in the interlayer of Inconel-625. Tensile strength and elongation were decreased at $1050^{\circ}C$-1600s, $1070^{\circ}C$-900s and $1090^{\circ}C$-400s. After observation the fracture specimens, There was Ni3B which is very brittle phase in the grain boundary of Ni201.

In this study, to repair damaged economizer fin tubes on ships, sealing treatment was performed after applying arc thermal spray coating technology using Inconel 625. A solid particle erosion (SPE) experiment was conducted according to ASTM G76-05 to evaluate the durability of the substrate, thermal spray coating (TSC), and thermal spray coating+sealing treatment (TSC+Sealing) specimens. The surface damage shape was observed using a scanning electron microscope and 3D laser microscope, and the durability was evaluated through the weight loss and surface roughness analysis. Consequently, the durability of the substrate was superior to that of TSC and TSC+Sealing, which was believed to be owing to numerous pore defects in the TSC layer. In addition, the mechanism of solid particle erosion damage was accompanied by plastic deformation and fatigue, which were the characteristics of ductile materials in the case of the substrate, and the tendency of brittle fracture in the case of TSC and TSC+Sealing was confirmed.
