Welded joints of the alloys were fabricated under 70%environmental humidity conditions at 10°C with single pulse GMAW welding technology. The alloys and their joints were tested and examined with impact toughness, porosities distribution and Synchrotron Radiation. The element results showed that the elements of Zn and Mg were the main factors that affect impact properties of the alloys. The #2 alloy which has the element of Zn-4.29 Mg-1.56 Mn-0.22 Cr-0.14 Zr-0.01 Ti-0.027 had the best impact properties which were 20.76J.The results indicated that the #2 had the lest stomatas only 22 and had the lowest porosity rate of 0.009% . Weld zone compared with the base material, the content of Mn and Ti had reduced.the#2 residual stress evenly distributed,the maximum tensile stress was 99Mpa in weld and the maximum compressive stress -66Mpa in base metal.forming .
