Welding is a technique of fusion joining the material involving a process of inter-molecular diffusion adhesion. Polymer welding is an assembly method among several known assembly techniques such as gluing. This welding process applies to thermoplastics; they have the rheological or softening characteristics during melting. This process is fast and controlled in order to obtain a solid and durable mechanical connection on the series parts. This study focuses on the weldability of high density polyethylene (HDPE) using the friction stir welding technique. A parametric choice was made to optimize the operating parameters namely the shape of the welding tool, the speed of rotation and the speed of advance of the tool. Monotonic tensile tests were used to compare the mechanical characteristics between a HDPE test specimen and a specimen taken from an FSW weldment. It emerges from this study that the FSW welding introduces a weakening of the joints characterized by a clear decrease of the deformation at break. KEYWORDS.

INTRODUCTION riction stir welding is a recent permanent assembly process considered as a major technology in the industry, this type of welding is applied to thermoplastic materials including polymers, its principle is based on the softening phenomenon following the melting caused by the heating of the material (Fig. 1.a) assembled with a non- consumable special rotating tool (Fig. 1.b). The principle is to provide heat to the metal base by friction of the metal by a pin fixed on a base that rotates in the joint plane of the parts to be assembled. A metal layer in plastic and pasty form is formed under the base and around the pin. This process which performs the assembly at a temperature below the melting temperature of the metal to be bonded deforms less than the fusion processes. In addition, the mechanical characteristics of the welded materials remain close to the initial values of the base F http://www.gruppofrattura.it/VA/47/2208.mp4 K. Hachellaf et alii, Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, 47 (2019) 459-467; DOI: 10.3221/IGF-ESIS.47.36 460 materials. This process is well suited to alloys with a low melting point (aluminum, magnesium, copper) and found with these materials its main industrial applications: aeronautics, space, land transport, shipbuilding etc... During the welding operation the friction and the thermal field are factors that play an important role for the success of the FSW welding operation. The frictional heat of the shoulder of the tool and the heat of deformation of the tool spindle allow the material to soften without reaching the melting point. Significant plastic deformation and flow of this plasticized material occur as the tool is translated along the welding direction. The material is transported from the front to the rear edge of the tool, where it is forged to form a joint [1]. Panneerselvam and Lenin [1,2] observed that in the FSW of Nylon-6, a seal made with counter-clockwise rotation of the tool produced better material properties. Hoseinlaghab et al. [1,3] studied the creep properties of FSW-welded polyethylene plate assemblies and reported that under controlled conditions, the creep resistance of welds may be better than that of the base [1]. FSW can be used to join sheets and aluminum plates, without filler wire or shielding gas. Variety of materials ranging from aluminum alloys, copper, magnesium, lead, zinc and polymers and a material thickness ranging from 0.8 to 65 mm have been reported for successful welded joints at full penetration and without porosity and internal voids [4]. After the successful application of FSW on metals, Adeel et al. found that, depending on their physical and rheological properties, the welding parameters differ from polymer to polymer. Polymers with high melting temperature and viscosity require a higher speed of rotation and reach a sufficient heat and possibly a good resistance of the weld. In addition, to improve the welding force, the use of hot shoes or induction heating in situ showed good results [5]. Olivier L. has shown that temperature plays a key role in the success of welding and thus the understanding and control of the flow of the material are related to the temperature field and are critical for the success of FSW welding [6]. In other sense the improvement of mechanical properties such as fatigue, Zhou et al has confirmed through these tests on the service life is better in FSW (compared to other welding processes), higher service life for FSW welded joints (9 to 12 times higher) [7]. a) b) Figure 1: FSW welding principle. a) FSW welding process, [8]. b) FSW welding tool, [9]. In this work we highlight the weldability of HDPE polymer by friction stir welding technique (FSW), the HDPE material is used in the drinking water networks and thus the city gas networks. Three welding parameters, the speed of rotation, the speed of advance and the geometrical shape of the tools, were studied. Mechanical behavior tests were carried out to evaluate and optimize the necessary parameters involved in achieving a good weld. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE he material used is high density polyethylene (HDPE) is a thermoplastic polymer of high diffusion. It is part of the family of polyolefins, in the same way as low or medium density polyethylenes, used in the manufacture of pipes reserved for the supply and distribution of drinking water in accordance with Algerian standards NA7700-2 manufactured by the group CHIALI Sidi Bel-Abbes (Algeria), molar mass is of the order of 500 kg / mol and glass transition temperatures and melting are respectively (-125 ° C and 135 ° C) [10]. Tabs. 1 and 2 below show the mechanical and physical properties of HDPE (PE100). The tensile test carried out taken from a drinking water pipe made of HDPE (dumbbell type) in Fig. 2 according to the ISO 3167 standard [12]. Then perform the monotonic tensile operation to complete the main mechanical properties of a material (Fig. 3), such as yield strength, breaking strength and elongation. T K.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS he experiment was successfully carried out on HDPE plates with a thickness of 4 mm with all the parameters selected. Examination of these welded samples by both types of tools gives some good results for welding quality. The samples relating to the welding by the two tools T1 and T2 for rotation speed of 875 rpm and advance speed of 24 and 40 mm/min have a satisfactory appearance. For other cutting parameters, we notice a bad quality of welding. We also noticed that with a cylindrical pin, the kneading zone of the welded sample had a good surface state, which proves the effectiveness of the tool for kneading the softened polymeric material (Tab. 3). When the linear welding operation is finished sample preparation is carried out for tensile tests (Fig. 6), tensile test specimens made of Dumbbell form according to ISO 3167. Tensile tests are carried out under room temperature. T K.

Hachellaf et alii, Frattura ed Integrità Strutturale, 47 (2019) 459-467; DOI: 10.3221/IGF-ESIS.47.36 465 Tab. 4 shows the tensile strength values and their effectiveness on the weld bead for different parameters and for the two tools with cylindrical and conical pins. The cylindrical pin tool achieves maximum efficiency of the joint strength respectively 14.94% and 6.07% for advanced speed 24 mm/min and 40 mm/min and in parallel for the conical tool profile has a value of 13.12% for a speed of 24 mm/min. The experimental results shown in Fig. 7 (stress-strain curves) for tensile tests with a strain rate of 0.01s-1 at room temperature are compared to those of the no welded test specimen. According to these results of the FSW welding on HDPE, it can be seen that these results are very satisfactory, especially the tools T1 and T2 for the two advanced speed 24 and 40 mm/min, where a remarkable improvement is observed caused by the temperature welding effect on the material that is triggered at the beginning of the tensile stress on the elastic zone (Fig. 7). from Fig. 7, we remarked also that the maximum stress Rm = 24.3 MPa became important, an improvement of the modulus of elasticity with respect to that of the no welded specimen which was of value Rm = 20.41 MPa, at the same time or we have a reduced plastic part noticing on the curves where the plasticity domain of the material (plastic side on the tensile curve) was lost, therefore the material has become rigid, the latter linked to several phenomena and several parameters influenced by the FSW welding operation and even the material as there are other parameters that play an important role, all due to the influence of the machined weld joint that changes the mechanical behavior of the FSW welded material. These experimental results obtained allowed us to better understand certain phenomena resulting for example the flow of the material around the tool. MICRO HARDNESS TEST he Vickers micro-hardness test is done on a very sophisticated automatic FT-ARS 9000 laboratory mechanical engineering tester with a load of 500 gf for 10 seconds at room temperature [15]. The determination of the hardness value of the weld seams for comparing the results to those of the non-welded material, the micro-hardness was measured on the mid-thickness of the welded joints perpendicular to the welding axis are made (Fig. 8) with a step of 1 mm between the points measured, where the measurements are carried out symmetrically with respect to the main axis of welding. Figure 8: Profile of welded joint on half thickness. The results of the Vickers micro-hardness (HV) shown in (Fig. 9), made on the average thickness of two welded plates (lateral side) of the welded bead (Fig. 8 ) with a spacing of 1 mm ,Within a limited range of (-15 to +15 mm) from the center of the weld, variable hardness applies over 4 main thermal zones, the core zone (or nugget zone NZ), thermo- mechanical affected zone (TMAZ), heat affected zone ( HAZ) and base material (BM) which is not affected by the FSW welding process. The mechanical properties vary between deferent component zones of the welding. The micro-hardness profile exhibits an increase in all cases which reaches a maximum value at the core zone (NZ) which is the equi-axed zone is harder than the other zones, the curve is fairly symmetrically to the axis, ie the core zone is very hard relative to the base material zone BM. the micro-hardness decreases towards the less hard zone, the latter represents the normal state of the non-welded material, this zone is located outside the thermal deformation during welding, so it retains its original granular structure without change. According to [16, 17] the hardness value in the NZ zone should be higher than the other zones because of its structure. The distribution of microhardness is almost symmetrical with respect to the median weld line because the field plastic flow on both sides of the weld center is uniform [16, 18]. T K.

CONCLUSIONS he characterization of the mechanical behavior of the materials through the various tests carried out, the results obtained show the complex relationship between material and tool which contributes to the physicochemical change modified by several welding parameters such as the advance speed, the rotation speed and tool geometry. This study, we concluded that the behavior of the welded joint FSW strongly depends on the geometry of the tool which plays an important role with the chosen parameters. The union of all these parameters proves that FSW welding of HDPE gives very satisfactory and important results. It should be noted that the analysis of the results made it possible to understand the influence of the tool geometry and cutting parameters used in FSW. According to the results obtained, it is observed that the best results were obtained by the cylindrical profiled tool T2 which have a maximum efficiency of the weld of 14.94% compared to the base material, better than the tool T1 with a conical profile which reaches a efficiency of 7.94%, the cylindrical profile with a dynamic volume ratio produces better results than the conical profile are suitable to obtain a good quality of welding of thermoplastic materials such as HDPE. This work is a real experimental challenge. To do this, we have developed a technique for welding HDPE. With regard to the influence of tool geometry on FSW welding, tools T1 and T2 are suitable for obtaining good welding quality. REFERENCE [1] Vijendra, B., Sharma, A. (2015).
