Microstructure development in weld material containing Ti and B has been in-situ observed by using laser scanning conforcal microscopy, with various cooling rate. The samples with different aluminum contents were prepared for the observation. In the sample with low Al/O ratio (0.48–0.73), acicular ferrite microstructure transforming from intragranular nucleation site was in-situ observed. On the other hand, with high Al/O ratio, the bainite microstructure originating from grain boundary of austenite was in-situ observed. The transformation temperature decreased with increasing aluminum content. It was cleared that the microstructure difference was due to the different inclusion in the matrix. Based on those observations, the chemical composition, cooling rate and the microstructure were systematically related and the microstructure developments were summarized as a CCT diagram.
