Abstract : Abstract- This study aims to evaluate and compare the mechanical and metallurgical properties of similar and dissimilar
metal weld joints between duplex stainless steel/duplex stainless steel and duplex stainless steel/corten-A steel by gas
tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process. Plates of 2 mm thickness of duplex stainless steel, conforming to grade AISI 2205
and high strength low alloy steel conforming to grade ASTM A242 Corten-A were butt welded using gas tungsten arc
welding with argon as shielding gas. Electrode conforming to specification E 309L was used as filler metal. The joints were
evaluated for microstructure and mechanical properties. Tensile, Bend, and Hardness tests were carried out to evaluate the
mechanical properties. Micro structure was examined with optical microscopy. Micro examination of the weld region
revealed dendritic grains of austenite with ferrite. The structure was free from sigma, intermetallic phases and other
precipitates in similar metal. Micro examination of the weld region revealed dendritic structure in dissimilar metal.
