Thermo-mechanical treatments of engineering metallic materials yield non-equilibrium microstructures, which influence important mechanical properties. An example is friction stir welding as a solid state joining process. Occurring non-equilibrium phases potentially reduce strength and toughness of a joint and are thus important to be studied. The intermediate stages of phase transformations in steels during the joining process can only be registered by in situ experiments. Therefore, in situ diffraction measurements using a transportable friction stir welding system (FlexiStir) were performed at the HZG high-energy material science beamline (HEMS) at DESY. Additionally, the phase transformations occurring in the steels used for friction stir welding were studied using a dilatometer in the synchrotron beam. With a fast area detector, time-resolved measurements with image rates up to 10 Hz were possible for both setups. The results on the phase content as a function of time obtained from the diffraction data in combination with the dilatometer signal improves the understanding of the processes occurring during friction stir welding of the investigated steels.
