CO2Argon
CO2argon is a binary gas mixture consisting of carbon dioxide (CO2) and argon (Ar). The proportions of these gases can vary depending on the specific application. This mixture is commonly used in the welding industry, particularly in gas metal arc welding (GMAW), also known as MIG welding. In this context, it acts as a shielding gas.
The primary function of CO2argon as a shielding gas is to protect the molten weld pool from
The presence of CO2 in the mixture contributes to arc stability and influences the weld bead profile.
