welding with single-component Fluxes, Journal of Materials
Processing Technology 99 (2000) 260-265.
activated flux TIG (ATIG) welding process
thin layer of an active flux that results in a great increase in
weld penetration
This effect is, generally, connected to the capture of electrons
in the outer parts of the arc by elements of high
electronegativity, which constrict the arc causing an effect
similar to that used in plasma arc welding.
