Processing of TiC-CNT hybrid composite coating on low alloy steel using TIG Torch technique

In the present study, a surface layer of TiC-CNT hybrid compositecoating has been developed on low alloy steel (LAS) by using powder preplacement and tungsten inert gas (TIG) torch melting techniques.The weighed powder mixture with the content of 1.0 mg per millimeter square area and containing T...
