“…In other words, the material surface is processed by the FSP; hence, this technique is employed for surface modification of the materials [2,27,28,94]. It is noteworthy that these technologies, i.e., FSP and FSW, are such important and usable methods for the production of metal matrix composites (MMC) [27,[95][96][97]. This means that the secondary phase particles can be merged with the material.…”

“…Then, the secondary phase particles (i.e., reinforcement) are poured into the grooves. Finally, the particles are combined with the workpiece by rotating the tool, and a composite structure is developed [27,95,96]. Reinforcements can consist of ceramics such as nitrides, oxides, carbides, and other materials [96].…”

Friction stir welding (FSW) and friction stir processing (FSP) are two of the most widely used solid-state welding techniques for magnesium (Mg) and magnesium alloys. Mg-based alloys are widely used in the railway, aerospace, nuclear, and marine industries, among others. Their primary advantage is their high strength-to-weight ratio and usefulness as a structural material. Due to their properties, it is difficult to weld using traditional gas- or electric-based processes; however, FSW and FSP work very well for Mg and its alloys. Recently, extensive studies have been carried out on FSW and FSP of Mg-based alloys. This paper reviews the context of future areas and existing constraints for FSW/FSP. In addition, in this review article, in connection with the FSW and FSP of Mg alloys, research advancement; the influencing parameters and their influence on weld characteristics; applications; and evolution related to the microstructure, substructure, texture and phase formations as well as mechanical properties were considered. The mechanisms underlying the joining and grain refinement during FSW/FSP of Mg alloys-based alloys are discussed. Moreover, this review paper can provide valuable and vital information regarding the FSW and FSP of these alloys for different sectors of relevant industries.

“…Reinforcement material plays a crucial role in imparting the surface composite with peculiar properties, depending on its own basic properties. When the second phase particles are distributed uniformly they show a pinning effect to hold the boundaries and do not let the re-crystallization to happen [17].…”

Newer materials with unique properties are needed to cater the ever-increasing industrial demands to meet new challenges concerning technological advancements. Quest for special materials and processes is prevalent as conventional materials fail to level up. Composite materials promisingly bridge this gap by providing controllable properties at reasonable costs. Their scope of application can further be drastically enhanced by subjecting them to special surface processing treatments. Friction stir processing (FSP) is one such promising process that can meet the stringent applicational demands. Composites are increasingly being used in industries for properties like high strength to weight ratio, increased hardness, stiffness, ductility, corrosion resistance, etc. FSP, a solid-state material modification technique, has proved its caliber in surface composite fabrication. Some attention-seeking advantages of FSP include peerless efficiency, less tool wear rate, and ability to modify material locally are some of many attention-seeking advantages. Despite being cost-effective FSP also manages to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional manufacturing process. FSP reinforces a special material into the parent material surface to attain specific properties. Properties so developed depend on parameters like: tool geometry, traverse speed, rotation speed, number of passes etc. The present paper aims to review comprehensive information on fabrication of surface composites by FSP, process parameters, properties, industrial applications, and future scope. Key Words: Friction stir processing surface processing treatments surface composites material modification process parameters.

“…In addition to these unique properties, the hardness behavior improvement of AMCs has drawn considerable interest in the automotive and aircraft industries. Recent studies have adopted various existing manufacturing techniques, such as friction stir processing [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], mechanical alloying [ 17 , 18 , 19 ], friction stir processing [ 4 ], stir casting [ 20 , 21 , 22 ], and powder metallurgy [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ] to fabricate improved hardness and scratch-resistant AMCs. Interestingly, powder metallurgy (PM) has attracted increasing interest in producing AMCs due to its significant benefits, such as the uniform dispersion of reinforcement particles in the matrix and limited likelihood of forming interfacial phases owing to reduced processing temperature [ 27 ].…”

The tenacious thirst for fuel-saving and desirable physical and mechanical properties of the materials have compelled researchers to focus on a new generation of aluminum hybrid composites for automotive and aircraft applications. This work investigates the microhardness behavior and microstructural characterization of aluminum alloy (Al 7075)-titanium carbide (TiC)-graphite (Gr) hybrid composites. The hybrid composites were prepared via the powder metallurgy technique with the amounts of TiC (0, 3, 5, and 7 wt.%), reinforced to Al 7075 + 1 wt.% Gr. The microstructural characteristics were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) elemental mapping. A Box Behnken design (BBD) response surface methodology (RSM) approach was utilized for modeling and optimization of density and microhardness independent parameters and to develop an empirical model of density and microhardness in terms of process variables. Effects of independent parameters on the responses have been evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The density and microhardness of the Al 7075-TiC-Gr hybrid composites are found to be increased by increasing the weight percentage of TiC particles. The optimal conditions for obtaining the highest density and microhardness are estimated to be 6.79 wt.% TiC at temperature 626.13 °C and compaction pressure of 300 Mpa.
