“…The results showed that high amounts of reinforcing particles caused cracks and reduced mechanical properties. Soleimanipour et al 29 presented a numerical model for FSE process of AA1050 aluminum alloy. They indicated that the rotational speed exhibited the most effective parameter on the temperature and strain rate of produced sample.…”

In this study, the friction stir extrusion process as a new method was used to produce AA 1050 aluminum composite wires reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) powder. The effect of process parameters on temperature (T), porosity (P) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) was evaluated using the response surface method based on the Box-Behnken design. The input parameters included rotational speed (RS), extrusion force (EF) and reinforcement weight percentage (RF). Moreover, the microstructural evaluation of composite samples was conducted using optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. Finally, analysis of variance and regression analysis were used to obtain an appropriate model and confirm the accuracy of the results. The results showed that the temperature was increased by increasing the rotational speed to 1000 r/min and decreasing the extrusion force to 5.5 kN. Moreover, the lowest porosity value (averaged = 0.5%), and the highest tensile strength value (averaged = 153 MPa) were obtained at RS = 750 r/min, EF = 10.5 kN and RF = 3%. This can be attributed to the uniform distribution of reinforcing particles and strong interfacial bonding between SiC particles and the aluminum matrix. Also, the most effective parameter in the process was rotational speed which exhibited the greatest influence on P (53%) and UTS (41%) of composite samples. However, reinforcement weight percentage had the least effect on P (14%) and UTS (28%).

Friction stir extrusion (FSE) is a versatile technique that plays a dual role in sustainable recycling and shaping of materials. This method involves a rotating mandrel and a fixed matrix within a mold, where compressed waste metal chips or primary bulk materials are introduced. The rotating mandrel exerts continuous axial pressure, generating frictional heat that softens and bonds the materials together. As the mandrel advances, the materials are reshaped and extruded through the cavity inside the mandrel or the space between the mandrel and the matrix, resulting in the desired product, such as wires or pipes. FSE finds applications in recycling machining wastes, improving powder metallurgy products, producing wire raw materials, creating structures with fine microstructures, and developing new alloys and composites. The resulting materials exhibit refined grains, leading to enhanced mechanical and metallurgical properties. This review article compiles experimental studies exploring the mechanical and microstructural characteristics of samples manufactured using FSE for recycling, reshaping, alloying, or bilayer production. Additionally, it discusses various tool, mold, and machine designs proposed by researchers. Beyond its unique properties, FSE is highlighted as an energy‐efficient, sustainable, and eco‐friendly process.
