Basics
- May need a better name, but:
- This page aims to determine the environmental impact via looking for existing / making a rudimentary LCA of the equivalent Consumables needed for Shielded Metal Arc Welding ( and the similar Flux Core Arc Welding and Submerged Arc Welding Processes) vs Gas Shielded Arc Welding / Gas Tungsten Arc Welding
- IE Stick Welding vs MIG/TIG Welding
Common Welding Rods
7018
Flux
- Chemistry is Life - Chemistry of a Welding Rod (shitty article, may be able to grab more from it's guts later)
- Weldwire . net Products - E7018 AWS: A5.1 (Lists standards for chemical deposits/composition / whole, not much specifics on ingredients)
- Attatched PDF of a MSDS / MDS from the above source, page 2 "Section 3" of is titled "COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS"
- Grab specifics later, but:
- Iron
- Limestone ( Calcium Carbonate )
- Aluminium
- [[Sodium Silicate
- Cellulose
- Mineral Silicates
- Titanium Dioxide
- Potassium Silicate
- Magnesium Carbonate
- Magnese
- Aluminum Carbonate
- Silicon
- Quartx
- Flurospar
- Magnesium Oxide
- Zinc Oxide
GMAW
- Shield Gas
