Abstract: The effects of rare earth Ce on the hydrogen-absorption tendency of Sr modified molten Al-5Si welding wire, hydrogen content of the welding wire and porosity of the welds were investigated by means of pressure reduction and solidification method, solid-state hydrogen measurement and X-ray detection, respectively. A notable increase in the hydrogen content of Al-5Si aluminum alloy welding wire and porosity of the welds was observed when 0.02wt% Sr was added exclusively. Additionally, when 0wt%~0.05wt% Ce was introduced into Al-5Si-0.02Sr wel-ding wire, the increase of Ce content brought about the decline in hydrogen content of Al-5Si-0.02Sr-xCe welding wire. And Al-5Si-0.02Sr-xCe welding wire achieved the minimum hydrogen content of 0.07 mL/(100 g Al) under the condition of 0.05wt% Ce, which was 81.6% lower than that of Al-5Si-0.02Sr welding wire. Further raise of Ce content to 0.1wt% failed to make any difference in the hydrogen content of Al-5Si-0.02Sr welding wire. In terms of the weld porosity, it generally shared the same variation trend of hydrogen content of the welding wire caused by the increasing Ce content. Moreover, welds free of gas pore was successfully accessible, when Ce content was no less than 0.05wt%. Adding Ce to Al-5Si-0.02Sr welding wire could scarcely exert any effect on the tensile properties of the welding joints, but obviously improve the bending pro-perties and ductility.
