The microstructure traits and structural integrity of Ti-6Al-4 V welds of 5 mm thickness are discussed. The use of activated flux in the tungsten inert gas (ATIG) welding technique is adopted in this study using the oxide surfactant. Bead on trials attested that the depth of penetration (DOP) is enhanced with a corresponding rise in welding current upon the use of oxide surfactant. Microstructure...
