Aluminum welding

Hydrogen is very soluble in liquid aluminum. As the filler material and aluminum base metal become liquid during the welding process, they absorb hydrogen and can hold it in solution. Once the molten material starts to solidify, it can’t hold the hydrogen in a homogenous mixture anymore. The hydrogen forms bubbles that become trapped in the metal, leading to porosity.
