“…Hence, the best wear resistance is achieved at the slower end of the rotation and traverse speed combinations [43]. Jerome et al [44] also conducted a preliminary study on the influence of the microstructure and experimental parameters on the mechanical and wear properties of Al-TiC surface composites; they found that the microhardness increases as the rotational speed increases which subsequently improved the wear resistance.…”

Friction stir processing (FSP) being a novel process is employed for the improvement of the mechanical properties of a material and the production of surface layer composites. The vital role of the integrity of surface characteristics in the mechanical properties of materials has made the research studies into surface modification important in order to improve the performance in practical applications. This study investigates the effect of processing parameters on the wear resistance behavior of friction stir processed Al-TiC composites. This was achieved through microstructural characterization by using both the optical and scanning electron microscope (SEM), microhardness profiling, and tribological characterization by means of the wear. The microhardness profiling of the processed samples revealed an increased hardness value, which was a function of the TiC particles incorporated when compared to the parent material. The wear resistance property was also found to increase as a result of the TiC powder addition. The right combination of processing parameters was found to improve the wear resistance property of the composites produced.

“…Mainly, the micro hardness value depends upon the presence and uniform distribution of these particles. [11] Conclusion:-The correlation of mechanical properties and microstructure with the process parameters for the fabrication of AA6063/SiC composite material is a unique approach which has been the main motivation behind this project. Following conclusions were derived from the results of this experimental work.…”

“…The pin with help of shoulder produces frictional heat due to pressure and plastic deformation around the pin within the processing zone. As the tool pin moves, material is swept around the tool pin and retreating side of the tool (where the local motion due to rotation opposes the forward motion) and the surrounding un-deformed material [11]. The extruded material is deposited to form a solid phase behind the tool.…”

Purpose Friction stir processing (FSP) is overviewed with the process variables, along with the thermal aspect of different metals. Design/methodology/approach With its inbuilt advantages, FSP is used to reduce the failure in the structural integrity of the body panels of automobiles, airplanes and lashing rails. FSP has excellent process ability and surface treatability with good corrosion resistance and high strength at elevated temperatures. Process parameters such as rotation speed of the tool, traverse speed, tool tilt angle, groove design, volume fraction and increase in number of tool passes should be considered for generating a processed and defect-free surface of the workpiece. Findings FSP process is used for modifying the surface by reinforcement of composites to improve the mechanical properties and results in the ultrafine grain refinement of microstructure. FSP uses the frictional heat and mechanical deformation for achieving the maximum performance using the low-cost tool; the production time is also very less. Originality/value 100
