This paper represents a partial report on studies on the electrode for metallic arc welding of D-quality steel carried on at Fujinagata Dockyard Co., Ltd. under the author. The investigation has been undertaken with the object of acquiring data concerning this subject, and it is solely because sufficient data had not been found in published techinical literature that it was decided to make above subject known at once.
The first, the coatings whose constituents were so chosen as to bring out the specific effects on the slag constituents of addition of ferro-manganese in varying proportion are' placed in a vertical mild steel dipping tube of about 1.5 inches diameter and 20 inches high and the ordinary electrode rods immersed and slowly withdrawn. After the coat the rods are thoroughly air dried and then heated at a temperature of 105°C. for 4 hours in the drying chamber.
The weight of the coating of a rod should then be constant by weighing with the rough balance.
The welded-metals and butt-welded-test plates were made by depositing the coated electrodes. From these all-welded-metal and welded-test plate specimens and samples for chemical analyses were made and tested, respectively. The data were tabulated in the order of increasing ferro-manganese (-manganese-) for comparison and interpretation of results. The effects of ferro-manganese are shown by grouping the specimens according to slag constituents and plotting curves for each group, with values from test for ordinates and ferro-manganese (-manganese-) contents for abscissa.
