Recently, Ni-based weldments have been widely used in various industries, including aerospace, nuclear power, thermal power, and petrochemicals. In this paper, the classification and welding methods of Ni-based alloys are introduced. Fusion welding methods were mainly used for the welding of Ni-based alloys because of cost and technical limitations. The mechanism of welding cracks in Ni-based alloys and the effects of various elements on cracks are mainly reviewed. Solidification cracking, liquation cracking, ductility-dip cracking, and strain-age cracking frequently occurred in fusion welding processes. The appearance of a low-melting liquid film has been found to be the main reason for the relative clarity of the mechanisms of solidification cracking and liquation cracking. Ductility-dip cracking is still not clearly defined, and its mechanism in Ni-based alloys remains obscure. Strain-age cracking of Ni-based alloys is unique to precipitation-strengthened-Ni-based alloys and closely related to the precipitation rate. Though much research has been done, impurities and addition of elements have a major effect on welding cracks of Ni-based alloys. Therefore, the influence of most elements alone and the synergistic effects on cracks need further study.
