Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Ferrite and Pearlite
Micrographic detail of the very refined ferritic structure of the base metal, in the longitudinal section, indicating that the material was heat treated, since no banding is not detectable at this magnification.

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Bainitic HAZ
Micrographic detail of the weld metal in the last bead. The microstructure shows primary ferrite in the (previous austenite) grain boundaries, some regions of ferrite with aligned second phases and acicular ferrite in the center of the columnar grains.

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Columnar Grains
Micrographic detail of the refined ferritic microstructure, with equiaxial grains, of the weld metal in the root, reheated by the fill pass. At this magnification it is possible to see that the agglomerated carbides ar located in ferritic grain boundaries.
