Abstract:The primary objective of this study is to investigate the microstructural, mechanical, and wear behaviour of AZ31/TiC surface composites fabricated through friction stir processing (FSP). TiC particles are reinforced onto the surface of AZ31 magnesium alloy to enhance its mechanical properties for demanding industrial applications. The FSP technique is employed to achieve a uniform dispersion of TiC particles and grain refinement in the surface composite. Microstructural characterization, mechanical testing (h… Show more
