Cm - NaOH Electrolytic Etched MacroDf - Weld Metal in the Center
Micrography of the weld metal (cap) at the surface. It is clear that the last bead of the weld was remelted in an autogenous condition, probably to create a better finish, since the layer is less than 2 mm deep. This is a typical bad practice since a large amount of ferrite is retained by the quick cooling.
