“…This alloy is characterized by high corrosion resistance, friction wear resistance, and good properties at elevated temperatures; however, its wear resistance and hardness in demanding applications may not be satisfactory. One way to improve these properties is to add high hardness and wear resistance particles such as tungsten [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ] and titanium [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ] carbides to the powder and others [ 24 , 25 , 26 ]. As a result of remelting the mixture of these materials, a composite layer can be obtained in which carbides are reinforcing particles distributed in the alloy matrix.…”
