Zinc Coating On Mild Steel & Aluminium During Friction Surfacing

The book aims at providing the unique information on friction Surface. Deposition of zinc on mild steel & Aluminium by mechanical process is challenging to improve the surface characteristics of mild steel & Aluminium. The corrosion resistances of steel & Aluminium were improved due to deposition of zinc. Solid metal deposited on another solid by mechanical action. The parameters are speed, feed and forward time used in the process to develop the coating. The analysis of XRD, EDAX and SEM results shows zinc deposited on mild steel & Aluminium varies with varying process parameters. The lower crystalline size of the zinc deposited on steel & Aluminium at higher speed, lower feed and lower forward time. The metal is softened at higher speed due to high friction generated. Zinc deposited on mild steel & Aluminium increased due to increased friction in the process. The coating thickness of the internal surface of the pipe varies with the speed of the pipe at the forward time and feed.
