Abstract
Pure magnesium, despite its advantages, lacks crucial strength and corrosion resistance. With a continuous quest for improved materials and techniques, this study investigates innovative composite materials and the use of FSP for broader industrial applications. The study succeeded in producing this composite with enhanced properties compared to pure magnesium. Notably, the composite exhibited better corrosion resistance, increased strength and hardness. The grain size in the stir zone was significantly smaller, the grain structure was fine without defects, and recrystallized grains were present, resulting in more grain boundaries. Importantly, the properties of this surface composite approached or even surpassed those of some conventionally cast magnesium metal matrix composites. This suggests the potential for using this surface composite and FSP in industrial applications with further process parameter optimization. These findings highlight the promising prospects of surface composites and FSP in replacing traditional methods and bulk composites in specific industries.
