Application of Friction Surfacing to the Production of Aluminum Coatings Reinforced with Al2O3 Particles
The aim of this work was to produce deposits of AA6351-T6, reinforced with alumina (Al2O3) particles, over a substrate of AA5052-H32 through friction surfacing. AA6351-T6 consumable rods were drilled with one and two holes, which were filled with Al2O3 particles posteriorly. To perform the deposition, a conventional KONE KFE-3/BR milling machine was used. The results showed that Al2O3 particles increase the hardness values of the produced deposits when compared to those without particle addition. The coatings presented a fine equiaxed grain size distribution, once the grain refinement was nearly 48% lower than the as-received material. Moreover, deposit regions that showed finer grain boundaries also showed a higher volume fraction, which can be related to the particle stimulated phenomenon. Electron backscatter diffraction results showed the occurrence of low angle grain boundary substructures and lattice rotation, indicating that the material undergoes dynamic recrystallization during friction surfacing.
