“…The experimental conditions given in Table 2 show successful cladding of stainless steel on titanium by explosive welding. The welding interface has a wavy morphology (Figure .1.a), which is the typical of explosive welding as reported by earlier researchers [7][8]. However, some cracks in the outer border of the flyer plate, especially near the detonation region, have been observed.…”

Explosive cladding is a non-conventional, solid-phase bonding technique in which bonding between two plates is produced by their high velocity collision induced by the use of explosives. Attempts were made to explosive clad Titanium-Stainless steel (SS 304 L) plates (3.5 and 3.0 mm thick respectively). The experiments were designed to analyze the bonding interface parallel to the detonation direction. The presence of intermetallics, caused by the melting at the interface due to kinetic energy dissipation, was observed in some locations. The process parameters of the explosive welding of Titanium-Stainless steel combination are defined using the microstructural observations, microhardness at the interface, the results of X-ray diffraction study. A weldability window is also constructed for explosive welding of Ti /Ss.

“…On increasing the loading ratio, there is a transition of bond interface to a wavy pattern, which increases the mechanical interlocking and consequently increases the hardness and wear resistance of the coating [ 81 , 99 , 100 ]. Raghukandan et al found that wire mesh presence promotes the detonation propagation and absorption of excess energy [ 101 ]. The maximum temperatures were found in the top layer, which reduced towards the bottom due to the ceramic particles’ low thermal conductivity [ 102 ].…”

Ceramic coating has applications in enhancing the material’s properties and can significantly improve the material’s usability in varied temperatures and adverse operating conditions and widen its applicability scope. It can add to the various properties such as wear resistance, high-temperature degradation, thermal conductivity, material toughness, tensile strength, corrosion resistance, friction reduction, electric insulation, and the lifespan of the material. Various techniques have been suggested and implemented to achieve ceramic coating on a metal surface, each having their respective advantages and disadvantages. Hence, they can be distinguished for their applicability in different places. The bonding mechanism of metal particle systems has been researched to date, but there are still certain uncertainties regarding the ceramic particle system because of the dissimilarities in properties. The paper aims to profoundly investigate the various coating technologies available through welding processes and do a comparative study through numerical analysis and experimental results on the properties of coatings obtained from two broad categories of welding—solid-state and traditional/fusion processes. It was found that the solid-state processes in which the temperature remained well below the fusion temperatures overcame the mismatch in property and produced reliable coatings with enhanced mechanical properties.

“…Solid state welding processes is more advantageous than conventional processes in the production of wire mesh/ceramic particle reinforced composites due to minimum processing time and the cost effectiveness without compromising the mechanical properties [1]. Explosive cladding, suitable for the production of laminated metals in the form of sheets, rods or pipes improves the corrosion or wear resistance, thermal conductivity or even anti-friction properties [1][2][3]. Various researchers [2][3][4][5][6][7] employed multilayered and wire-reinforced explosive cladding of similar and dissimilar metals.…”

In this study, dissimilar grade aluminium plates were explosively cladded by placing a wire mesh/ceramic particle between them. The stainless steel 316 mesh with 90o orientation and SiCp (1.5 volume %) are employed to enhance the mechanical properties of the aluminium composites. Microhardness and microstructure of the explosively cladded composite materials were evaluated. Significant improvement in the microhardness of the wire mesh/ceramic particle reinforced aluminium composite is established.
