A "poison pad" is intended to permit the welding of dissimilar materials without affecting the parent (corrosion resistant) material's metallurgy. A prime example is the welding of carbon steel legs to stainless steel vessels to save cost- doing so directly without a poison pad would potentially introduce carbon into the HAZ of the vessel shell.
