A surface Ti-WC composite was fabricated on CP-Ti by surface friction stirring(SFS)using a pinless WC-Cotool at a processing window of 800−2500 r/min and 8−50 mm/min.At 1600 r/min-50 mm/min,a defect-free compositelaye...A surface Ti-WC composite was fabricated on CP-Ti by surface friction stirring(SFS)using a pinless WC-Cotool at a processing window of 800−2500 r/min and 8−50 mm/min.At 1600 r/min-50 mm/min,a defect-free compositelayer with an average hardness of~HV 1170 is formed.The hardness was increased by WC and TiN reinforcingparticles,dissolved Co atoms in Ti,and the formation of ultrafine grains.WC particles were incorporated into the Tisubstrate owing to the intense frictional interaction/heating at the tool-plate interface(~1000℃),which led to strengthloss and wear of the tool.The Williamson-Hall analysis of the XRD peaks of the SFSed sample confirmed a significantlysmall crystallite size(~100 nm).Wear tests showed that the wear resistance of the composite structure was about 4.5times higher than that of the CP-Ti.Friction analysis revealed a significant reduction in average value and fluctuations ofthe friction coefficient.展开更多
