Diffusion interlayers may be interpreted as welded joint microstructure defects, since their formation can cause premature failure of the product under high-temperature operation conditions. In addition, with a certain chemical and structural-phase composition of the welded metals, brittle interlayers formation and development of cracks in the weld zone may be occurred. To identify diffusion interlayers, the acoustic emission (AE) method is used in this research. Specimens cut from welded joints were tested by tension until rupture with simultaneous recording of AE signals. Based on the research results, particular AE data signatures corresponding to the specimens with diffusion interlayers were identified. The main feature indicating the presence of diffusion interlayers is an increase in the amplitudes of AE impulses and AE activity at a stress value of 300 MPa, corresponding to the ultimate strength of the ferrite phase.
