Friction surfacing is an emerging surface engineering technology, developed on the basic principle of friction welding, for depositing wear and corrosion resistant metallic coatings. In the present work coating of tool steel M2 were made on mild steel by friction surfacing by using 2 factorial designs with 3 factors at two levels for each. Process parameters developed a satisfactory deposition ...

In this study, the effects of cerium (Ce) addition on the friction and wear properties of surface welding AZ91 magnesium alloys were evaluated by pin-on-disk dry sliding friction and wear tests at normal temperature. The results show that both the friction coefficient and wear rate of surfacing magnesium alloys decreased with the decrease in load and increase in sliding speed. The surfacing AZ9...
