Effect of 3D interconnected Zr-BN based hybrid filler on the tribological properties of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites

The rapid growth of portable electronics requires a multifunctional composite with superior wear capability. Exceptional wear resistance is crucial for preventing early failure of laminated materials in harsh operating conditions. Hence, fabricating novel materials with excellent anti-wear performance is the primary objective in forthcoming integrated devices. The coefficient of friction (COF) and specific wear rate (Ws) of the fabricated composites were evaluated by tribo-test. The worn surface was analyzed using atomic force microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. Incorporating the hybrid filler improved the wear performance of the corresponding composites. Compared to the CFRP composite, the COF and Ws of BN (60%)-ZrO2(40%)/carbon fiber/epoxy composite were reduced by ~56 and 92%, benefiting multifunctional thermal interface applications.

Evaluation of mechanical and wear properties of LM24/fly ash/titanium diboride hybrid metal matrix composites using stir casting

This study focuses on the development of novel hybrid composites based on the LM24 alloy, utilizing liquid metallurgy stir casting to incorporate dual reinforcements (titanium diboride (TiB2) and fly ash (FA)). The weight percentage of TiB2 was maintained at levels of 2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%, keeping the FA at 2.5% during the course of fabrication. The introduction of 7.5 wt% TiB2 and 2.5 wt% FA displayed a very notable 43.18% increase in hardness and a 21.53% increase in tensile strength of the hybrid composite compared to the LM24 alloy. Furthermore, hybrid composites with a total reinforcement of 10 wt% exhibited superior wear resistance across the entire range of applied loads. Tensile fractography revealed ductile fracture mode for the LM24 alloy, while hybrid composites displayed a mixed-mode fracture. High-load-induced abrasive wear with little plastic deformation was seen on worn surfaces of hybrid composites, whereas adhesive wear was the dominant type of wear in the LM24 alloy. The results show that hybrid composites have better mechanical and tribological properties because the reinforcement particles are well distributed and the load is transmitted optimally. However, it is noted that increased reinforcement levels lead to a reduction in ductility, resulting in decreased impact resistance for the hybrid composites.

Combinatorial Deposition and Wear Testing of HiPIMS W-C Films

We used high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) to deposit tungsten carbide films for superior wear protection in abrasive environments. In order to sample different W-to-C ratios more efficiently, a combinatorial approach was chosen. A single sputter target with two equal segments was used, consisting of an upper tungsten and lower graphite segment. This allowed us to vertically sample various elemental compositions in just one deposition run without creating graphitic nano-layers by rotating the substrate holder. The substrate bias voltage, being one of the most effective process parameters in physical vapor deposition (PVD), was applied in both constant and pulsed modes (the latter synchronized to the target pulse). A direct comparison of the different modes has not been performed so far for HiPIMS W-C (separated W and C targets). The resulting coating properties were mainly analyzed by nano-hardness testing and X-ray diffraction. In general, the W2C phase prevailed in tungsten-rich coatings with pulsed bias, leading to slightly higher tungsten contents. Hardness reached maximum values of up to 35 GPa in the center region between the two segments, where a mix of W2C and WC1-x phases occurs. With pulsed bias, voltage hardnesses are slightly higher, especially for tungsten-rich films. In those cases, compressive stress was also found to be higher when compared to constant bias. Erosive wear testing by blasting with alumina grit showed that the material removal rate followed basically the coating’s hardness but surprisingly reached minimum wear loss for W2C single-phase films just before maximum hardness. In contrast to previous findings, low friction that requires higher carbon contents of at least 50 at. % is not favorable for this type of wear.

Friction Performance of Three-Dimension Printed PEEK for Journal Bearing Application Under Grease Lubrication

Abstract Additive manufacturing revolutionizes component and part creation, offering unmatched flexibility and reducing production time. This innovation, especially significant with semicrystalline polymers like polyetheretherketone (PEEK) at high temperatures, expands applications, including sleeves and bushes. PEEK's mechanical and tribological properties make it an attractive long-term metal replacement. However, the 3D printed PEEK surface is pivotal, and the surface structure depends on infill density, which influences its response to sliding conditions, such as speed, load, and test duration. The PEEK structure's surface patterns facilitate lubricant accommodation, particularly during boundary lubrication tests, affecting the formation of a transfer layer. Surface properties directly impact friction in 3D printed PEEK against the counterbody. Lubrication decreases friction coefficients compared to dry conditions. Wear tests show that 3D printed PEEK parts outperform extruded rod samples, displaying superior wear resistance. Surface texture and properties directly affect contact characteristics and lubricant storage. In journal bearings, varying infill percentages create surface voids, efficiently accommodating polyalphaolefin (PAO)-based grease in PEEK-based applications where oil is not preferred for sliding operations.

Measurement of volumetric wear of printed polymer resin and milled polymer infused ceramic network definitive restorative materials.

Currently there is no regulatory requirement or international standard for the wear resistance of dental materials and therefore no need to test prior to market launch. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the total volumetric wear characteristics of milled polymer infiltrated ceramic network (MPICN) and printed polymer resin (PPR) as substrates opposing five antagonists, human enamel (EN), lithium disilicate (LD), zirconia (ZR), MPICN, and PPR, and to evaluate and compare the volumetric wear of these same materials as antagonists. Ten of each antagonist for a total of 50 EN, LD (IPS e.max CAD), ZR (IPS e.max ZirCAD MT), MPICN (Crystal Ultra), and PPR (Crowntec for NextDent) were shaped into spherical heads and were tested against 2 disk-shaped substrates, MPICN (Crystal Ultra) and PPR (Crowntec for NextDent). Specimens were tested in a wear machine with a third-body food substitute and loaded with a force of 20 to 70N at 1Hz for 100 000 cycles. The total wear volume was digitally measured by comparing scans before and after cycling. The area of the wear facet of the antagonists was measured in a similar way and used to estimate the total volume loss of the antagonists. Data were analyzed using 2-way and 1-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey multiple comparisons post hoc test (α=.05). Antagonist type was found to significantly affect the total volume wear of the substrate (P=.022). EN was found to cause significantly more wear in opposing substrates than ZR and PPR. Substrate material did not significantly affect the wear rate of the substrates (P=.345) nor did the interaction between substrate and antagonist type (P=.150). Antagonist wear was significantly affected by antagonist type (P<.001), with ZR showing no visible signs of wear and MPICN showing the most wear overall; substrate type (P=.002), with antagonists opposing MPICN showing more wear than PPR; and their interaction (P=.031). Differences in the wear resistance of milled polymer infiltrated ceramic network and printed polymer resin definitive restorative materials were found but varied depending on the opposing material. No material showed superior wear resistance across all tests. Overall, printed polymer resins created less wear in opposing antagonists than milled polymer infiltrated ceramic network materials.

Influence of Fiber Direction on the Tribological Behavior of Carbon-Reinforced PEEK at Elevated Temperature for Application in Gas Turbine Engines

Abstract The aerospace industry aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, requiring gas turbine engines to reduce CO2 emissions. This will impact engine material selection due to harsher operating conditions, limiting traditional metal/alloy use. While fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are commonly used in the aerospace industry, their use in gas turbine engines is often restricted by the lower operating temperatures of the polymer matrix. However, many studies have demonstrated the tribological potential of FRP in the fan section of the engines, but little attention has been given to the potential of orienting the fibers in the normal (i.e., out-of-plane) direction relative to the wear surface to leverage the anisotropic properties of FRP composites. This study investigates the impact of fiber orientation on the tribological properties of carbon fiber/polyetheretherketone (PEEK) (CF-PEEK) at elevated temperatures. Three CF-PEEK samples with different fiber orientations were selected for this study (parallel, antiparallel, and normal directions), as well as a fourth sample of pure PEEK. Tribological tests were conducted using a ball-on-disk tribometer at an elevated temperature of 200 °C to evaluate wear and friction behavior. The worn surfaces and counterfaces were analyzed using confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The findings reveal that CF-PEEK with fibers oriented in the normal direction demonstrates significantly enhanced tribological performance at elevated temperatures, achieving a 95% reduction in the friction coefficient and a 92% decrease in the wear-rate compared to pure PEEK. A wear mechanism has been proposed to explain the superior wear resistance of normally oriented fibers in CF-PEEK, linking it to the development of a fiber-based interface during the run-in phase and the formation of a uniform transfer film.

Experimental study on milling mechanism and surface quality of Mg2Si/Al composites

Mg2Si/Al composites are widely used in aerospace and automotive lightweight applications due to their excellent structural properties, such as superior specific stiffness, specific strength, and wear resistance. The removal mechanism of Mg2Si/Al composites is explored by establishing a finite element milling simulation model. A three-factor, four-level milling experiment based on the orthogonal experimental method is conducted to illustrate the patterns of the effects of milling parameters and surface defects on surface quality. Suitable milling parameters are successfully optimized by predictive modeling and experimental validation methods. The results show that the removal of Mg2Si/Al composites is mainly characterized by plastic deformation of the aluminum matrix and brittle fracture, crushing, bulging, and pulling out of Mg2Si particles.

Development of Fe/SiBr/Si₃N₄/silica fume nanocomposites from recycled metal waste for industrial applications

Due to the high cost of raw materials, this work aims to benefit from metal waste, especially iron (Fe) and silicon bronze, which results from turning workshops and recycling them to obtain nanocomposites for industrial applications. In this respect, Fe/SiBr/Si3N4/silica fume nanocomposites possessing superior mechanical, wear, and magnetic characteristics have been produced using powder metallurgy (PM) technology. Milled sample particle size, crystal size, and phase composition were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The powders were compressed and sintered in argon to get excellent sinterability. The sintered nanocomposites’ physical, mechanical, wear, electrical, and magnetic properties were investigated. The microstructure was also examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The results showed a noticeable decrease in the size of particles and crystallite size after adding reinforcements, reaching 22 nm for the sample improved with 5 vol% silica fume and 5 vol% Si3N4 (FS4). In addition, after adding reinforcements, there was a clear improvement in the microhardness, Young’s modulus, and wear rate of Fe-SiBr, reaching 58, 27.89, and 43.21% percent for the sample FS4. Adding reinforcements harms the electrical conductivity of Fe-SiBr, as it decreases to 8.64 × 106 S/m for the same previous sample. Finally, adding reinforcements slightly affects the decrease in magnetization of the nanocomposites.

Bio-lubricants as viable replacements for mineral oils in automotive engines: A review

This review paper explores the potential of bio-lubricants as sustainable alternatives to conventional mineral oils for the lubrication of automotive engines. Bio-lubricants, which are derived from renewable sources such as vegetable oils, provide substantial environmental advantages, such as reduced toxicity and biodegradability. The review summarizes the results of recent research, emphasizing the superior lubricity, oxidative stability, and wear resistance of bio-lubricants, particularly those that have been formulated with additives to improve performance. The chemical structure and fatty acid composition of vegetable oils, including soybean, palm, and cottonseed oils, are the subject of discussion, as they have a significant impact on their lubrication properties. The efficacy of advanced modeling techniques, such as genetic algorithm (GA) and artificial neural networks (ANN), in the prediction and optimization of bio-lubricant formulations is assessed. Despite their promising qualities, bio-lubricants encounter obstacles such as fluctuations in raw material quality and increased production costs. The review underscores the necessity of ongoing research and development to confront these obstacles, with an emphasis on enhancing performance consistency and cost-effectiveness. It is argued that the transition to bio-lubricants is a crucial step in the pursuit of sustainable automotive lubrication, as it reduces dependence on non-renewable resources and mitigates environmental damage. Future research directions and recommendations are suggested to further improve the applicability and adoption of bio-lubricants in the automotive industry.

Effect of composite magnetic microspheres and curing time on the corrosion and wear properties of phosphate ceramic coatings

In order to enhance the corrosion and wear resistance of ceramic coatings in marine environment, different types of micro-nano structures were constructed on the surface of phosphate ceramic coatings by magnetic polystyrene (PS@Fe3O4) microspheres and curing time. Subsequently, the surface properties of the magnetic composite microspheres and coatings were characterized, and the corrosion and wear properties of the coatings were investigated. The results revealed that the microspheres were gradually decomposed with the increase of curing time, and the surface of the coating presented different micro-nano structure with convex, flat and concave. Compared to unstructured coating (NSC), the convex micro-nano structured coating (CXMNC) and concave micro-nano structured coating (CEMNC) possessed outstanding superhydrophobicity. Through three tests of the knife scraping, tape peeling and sandpaper abrasion, the coatings showed excellent bonding strength and mechanical durability. After a long immersion period (256h), the impedance modulus of CXMNC and CEMNC were 27 and 15 times that of NSC, respectively. Compared with the NSC, the wear rate of CXMNC and CEMNC was reduced by 31.09% and 5.42%, respectively. Compared with the uncorroded samples, the wear rate of NSC, CXMNC and CEMNC after the immersion corrosion (30 days) was increased by 127.23%, 59.18% and 65.48%, respectively. Therefore, the micro-nano structured coatings have superior corrosion resistance and wear resistance to NSC, and CXMNC so as to CEMNC, which will provide better insight into the development of new corrosion-wear resistant materials.

Multi-functional AA6061 alloy hybrid composites via friction stir processing: tailoring properties with TiNi and ceramic nanoparticles

ABSTRACT This study presents a novel approach to developing hybrid aluminum matrix composites by combining the friction stir processing (FSP) of AA6061 with TiNi particles and secondary ceramic reinforcements (TaC, BN, Al2O3). This distinctive combination maximizes the properties of mechanical, tribological, and corrosion resistance. The FSP, when used in combination with TiNi particles, caused a marked reduction in grain size, especially in the presence of Al2O3, owing to enhanced dynamic recrystallization. Thus, the most promising mechanical characteristics among the composites were demonstrated by AA6061/TiNi+TaC, which is 50% higher than base alloy AA6061. Incorporating TiNi particles alone through FSP enhanced wear resistance by 16% and microhardness by 15.4%. Adding TaC nanoparticles further improved wear resistance by 65% and microhardness by 43.8%. BN nanoparticles provided the most significant wear resistance improvement (83% reduction) and a 35.1% increase in microhardness, while Al₂O₃ improved wear resistance by 29% and microhardness by 23.2%. The combination of FSP with TiNi and TaC nanoparticles offers a promising route to achieving a balance of high strength, stiffness, and corrosion resistance, while BN additions prioritize superior wear resistance and low friction.

Performance research and structure optimization of quartz-covered alumina high-strength wear-resistant yarn

Improved abrasion resistance and shear performance of alumina fiber yarns is crucial to the weaving process. Herein, a series of novel SiO2@Al2O3 single-layer and double-layer covered yarns were prepared by winding 48 tex quartz yarn on the outer layer of 120–600 tex alumina yarn with wrapping twist of 50–500 twists/m. Wear resistance, shear force, and tensile fracture properties of the covered yarn were tested and analyzed. Wrapping twist ranges from 50 to 400 twists/m, with increased wrapping twist improving the SiO2@Al2O3 covered yarn's breaking strength, shear force, and wear resistance. As wrapping twist ranges from 400 to 500 twists/m, uneven winding and wear of quartz yarn weaken the breaking strength, wear resistance, and shear properties of SiO2@Al2O3 covered yarn. SiO2@Al2O3 double-layer covered yarn exhibits superior shear force, wear resistance, and tensile breaking strength compared with its single-layer counterpart. In comparison with the initial alumina yarn, wear resistance of SiO2@Al2O3 covered yarn improves by 50%, whereas the maximum shear strength and tensile breaking strength increase by 125% and 15%, respectively. High-strength, wear-resistant SiO2@Al2O3 covered yarn is suitable for alumina fabrics and braid structures, and is expected to be widely used in aerospace and the high-temperature insulation industry.

Comparative tribological analysis of Al-Fe-Si and Al-Fe-Cr based alloys

This study presents a comparative investigation of the tribological behaviour and microstructural characteristics of two different alloys, namely 77.3 % Al-1.8 % Fe-16.7 % Si and 54.1 % Al-12.8 % Fe-27.8 % Cr. High temperature alloys are fabricated by stir casting technique. Tribology analysis is conducted to assess wear, crack formation, and cavity zones for both alloys using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Additionally, optical micrography is employed to examine their microstructures. The results reveal significant differences between the two alloys, with the 77.3 % Al-1.8 % Fe-16.7 % Si alloy exhibiting higher Vickers hardness and superior wear resistance compared to the 54.1 % Al-12.8 % Fe-27.8 % Cr alloy. Optical micrographs confirm a well-defined grain distribution for the former alloy and a similar homogeneous microstructure for the latter.

Performance analysis of 3D orthogonal polymeric composites reinforced with metallic and glass fibrous z‐binders of varying sizes

AbstractDespite the wide use of three‐dimensional (3D) woven composites in different applications, their production is often costly. This study explores cost‐effective 3D orthogonal woven polymer composites to enhance mechanical performance. Four 3D composite variants, each incorporating different volumes of z‐binders (copper wires or glass fibers), were compared to a 2D woven composite. All composites were produced using a simple, economical hand lay‐up method. Wear resistance, in‐plane shear strength, and impact strength were assessed. Results indicated that all 3D composites surpassed the 2D composite in impact strength, especially those reinforced with glass fiber z‐binders. The single glass fiber z‐binder composite exhibited the highest impact strength increase (20.6%). Most 3D composites showed slightly reduced in‐plane shear strength compared to the 2D composite, with the smallest decrease (1.68%) observed in specimens with a small copper z‐binder. Notably, all 3D composites demonstrated superior wear resistance to 2D counterparts under various loads. Glass fiber z‐binder reinforcements outperformed copper z‐binders, with double fiber z‐binders yielding the maximum wear resistance enhancement. These findings underscore the potential of 3D woven composites for applications demanding high impact and wear resistance, such as automotive, structural components, and sports equipment.Highlights 3D woven composites are widely used in various engineering applications. Limited studies explore the in‐plane shear and wear behavior of 3D composites. Copper and glass fiber z‐binders were used in manufacturing 3D woven composites. The used hand lay‐up method reduces manufacturing costs. 3D woven composites improve impact and wear resistance compared to 2D ones.

Forming Control and Wear Behavior of M2 High-Speed Steel Produced by Direct Energy Deposition on Curved Surface.

Direct energy deposition (DED) technology shows promising applications in the production of roller die cutters. The optimization of process parameters, scanning strategies, and analyses of compressive properties and wear behavior are required prior to application. Therefore, this work investigated the influence of scanning strategy and overlap ratio on the microstructure, microhardness, compressive properties, and wear resistance of M2 high-speed steel (HSS) with DED on a 316 L cylindrical surface. The results reveal that along the deposition direction of the sample, the grain size gradually decreases, with hardness increasing from 187 HV in the matrix to 708 HV. As the overlap ratio increases, the grain size initially rises and then decreases, while hardness first declines and subsequently increases. The cross-scanning strategy effectively enhances the compressive strength by reducing porosity defects. Furthermore, the compressive strength of the samples initially increases with the overlap ratio before experiencing a slight decrease. The M-3 sample with a 50% overlap ratio exhibits the best compressive strength (3904 MPa). The wear rate decreases and then increases with the rising overlap ratio. Therefore, the M-3 sample, prepared using cross-scanning strategies with an overlap ratio of 50%, demonstrates a uniform and dense microstructure, resulting in superior wear resistance, and the wear rate is as low as 8 × 10-6 mm3·N-1·m-1. The current experimental results provide valuable references for the DED of die-cut knives.

Effect of Y Addition on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of CoCrFeNi HEA Coatings by Laser Cladding

In this study, CoCrFeNiYx (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) high entropy alloy (HEA) coatings were produced on Ti6Al4V by laser cladding. The influence of Y on the microstructure and mechanical properties of CoCrFeNi HEA coatings was systematically examined. The analysis uncovered that the coatings primarily consist of three principal phases: α(Ti), Ti2Ni, and TiC. The incorporation of Y led to enhanced lattice distortion, which positively influenced solid solution strengthening. Moreover, grain refinement resulted in a denser microstructure, significantly reducing internal defects and thereby enhancing the coating’s performance. The average microhardness of the CoCrFeNiY0.2 coating was 702.46 HV0.2. The wear rates were 1.16 × 10−3 mm3·N−1·m−1 in air and 3.14 × 10−3 mm3·N−1·m−1 in a neutral solution, which were 27.0% and 30.8% lower than those of the CoCrFeNi coatings, respectively, indicating superior wear resistance. The Y content in the CoCrFeNiY0.3 coating was excessively high, resulting in the formation of Y-rich clusters. The accumulation of these impurities at the grain boundaries led to crack and pore formation, thereby reducing the wear resistance of the coating. Our study demonstrated that laser cladding an optimal amount of Y-doped CoCrFeNi HEA coatings on the Ti6Al4V substrate significantly enhanced the microstructure and mechanical properties of the substrate, particularly its wear resistance in both air and neutral environments, thereby improving the durability and reliability of titanium alloys in practical applications.

Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of 28 % High Chromium White Cast Iron

The chemical composition of the metal and carbide phase, hardness, and common mechanical properties of cast iron, ICH28H2 cast iron, a type of high-chromium white cast iron, and the dependence of hardening, annealing, and tempering process types were studied. Therefore, annealing and hardening heat treatments were employed, and the results were compared to measurements in the as-cast state. The metal matrix exhibited content within the range of 16.8% to 19.7% Cr and 71.9% to 76% Fe, while the carbide phase showed 63.4% to 64.7% Cr and 23% to 24.8% Fe. The Cr carbide in high Cr white iron primarily appeared as (Fe, Cr)7C3 type, leading to the calculated chemical formula of the eutectic carbide as (Fe2Cr5)C3. The as-cast white iron displayed a hardness of 53 HRC, which increased marginally to 56.2 HRC after hardening. This suggests that the 28% Cr white iron alloy does not exhibit a significant hardness enhancement compared to the cast state, attributed to its high Cr content. The hardness of the metal phase directly influences the overall hardness change of the alloy, while the carbide hardness is dependent on its Cr content. Abrasive wear studies revealed that 28% Cr white cast iron exhibited superior wear resistance in the as-cast state compared to the hardened state, aligning with research indicating that cast iron demonstrates optimal wear resistance in its cast state.

Friction Behaviors and Wear Mechanisms of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Composites for Bridge Cable.

Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy resin composites (CFRP) demonstrate superior wear resistance and fatigue durability, which are anticipated to markedly enhance the service life of structures under complex conditions. In the present paper, the friction behaviors and wear mechanisms of CFRP under different applied loads, sliding speeds, service temperatures, and water lubrication were studied and analyzed in detail. The results indicated that the tribological properties of CFRP were predominantly influenced by the applied loads, as the tangential displacement generated significant shear stress at the interface of the friction pair. Serviced temperature was the next most impactful factor, while the influence of water lubrication remained minimal. Moreover, when subjected to a load of 2000 g, the wear rate and scratch width of the samples exhibited increases of 158% and 113%, respectively, compared to those loaded with 500 g. This observed escalation in wear characteristics can be attributed to irreversible debonding damage at the fiber/resin interface, leading to severe delamination wear. At elevated temperatures of 100 °C and 120 °C, the wear rate of CFRP increased by 75% and 112% compared to that at room temperature. This augmentation in wear was attributed to the transition of the epoxy resin from a glassy to an elastic state, which facilitated enhanced fatigue wear. Furthermore, both sliding speed and water lubrication displayed a negligible influence on the friction coefficient of CFRP, particularly under water lubrication conditions at 60 °C, where the friction coefficient was only 15%. This was because the lubricant properties and thermal management provided by the water molecules, which mitigated the frictional interactions, led to only minor abrasive wear. In contrast, the wear rate of CFRP at a sliding speed of 120 mm/s was found to be 74% greater than that observed at 60 mm/s. This significant increase can be attributed to the disparity in sliding rates, which induced uncoordinated deformation in the surface and subsurface of the CFRP, resulting in adhesive wear.

Characterization of Ti-48Al-2Cr fabricated by multi-wire arc additive manufacturing: Microstructure, mechanical, and oxidation resistance properties

Utilizing a multi-wire arc additive manufacturing process applied with high-frequency induction heating wire technology (MWAAM-HF) proposed in this study, Ti-48Al-2Cr alloy straight-walled component was fabricated. During the MWAAM-HF process, three types of wires melt simultaneously and transfer smoothly into the weld pool to form satisfactory component without discernible cracks. The upper and lower regions have higher hardness compared to the middle region in both Z and Y direction. Along the Y direction, the upper region exhibited the highest UTS and YS, while the minimum values were observed along the Z direction. Superior wear resistance was observed in the upper and lower regions. Distinct regions exhibited different levels of high-temperature oxidation resistance and the upper region has superior high-temperature oxidation resistance.
