Low magnification micrography of the welded region, showing the interface between the base in the bottom and the fusion zone (between the liquidus and solidus temperatures), as well as the weld metal in the top. There are pores close to the weld metal and in the fusion zone the interdendritic space was melted and the eutectic morphology was changed. Keller etch.

Image by scanning electron microscopy of the metallurgically bonded interface of the composite seamless tube (carbon steel externally claded with stainless steel), in the side of the stainless steel where a strain hardening effect plus a carbide precipitation in twins is shown. The hardness of this region (279 HV0.3) is a lot higher than the value obtained out of this region (167 HV0.3) for the same stainless steel.
