Abstract:Nickel-based superalloy Inconel 601 has been used as tool material during friction-stir butt welding of AA6061-T6 plates. The unique properties of Inconel 601 viz. excellent high-temperature strength, strong work-hardening tendency, and high resistance to wear have been reported beneficial to utilize the material for potential use of FSW tool. Welding has been carried out in different combinations of tool rotation and traverse speed; joint performance in terms of ultimate tensile strength and micro-hardness ha… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
