[MW:2463] Re: Casting WPS/PQR

Dear Mr Hedge,

For your info, the heat treatment mentioned for this kind of material
it is not called normalising heat treatment but called solution heat
treatment.
What happens during this treatment (when performed well) is that all
kind of negative micro structural issues, such as Chromium Carbides
and Sigma Phase, will be dissolved in the material by which the base
materials corrosion resistance properties increases. After casting
this is required for most Stainless Steels and Duplex Stainless
Steels. At the foundry where I work we don't specify interpass
temperature during welding below 250 °C, which normally is required
for such materials, only because we always execute Solution Heat
Treatment in order to ensure that all undesirable structure contents
will be dissolved.

Best Regards,

Herman Pieper
