Description
The friction stir welding of copper for the production of spent nuclear fuel storage disposal canisters was investigated. Initial trials were conducted on UNS-C10100 plate of 10 mm thickness. The high temperatures required the use of a sintered tungsten tool; the high mechanical stresses required the drilling of a pilot hole for the tool probe. Argon shielding gas was used. The joints were investigated by metallography, bend testing, and the measurement of the ultimate tensile strength. Modified tool design and strengthening of the welding machine traversing table mechanism permitted the welding of plate of up to 50 mm thickness.
