Hybrid composites are materials that have a
combination of two or more reinforcements. These materials have
extensive engineering applications that have a low
strength/density ratio, low cost and ease of manufacturing. Hybrid
composites provide a combination of properties such as tensile
modulus, compressive strength and impact resistance, which
cannot be realized in composite materials. The surface properties
of the materials must be improved against corrosion and wear. It
is therefore essential and important that the coating layer has both
wear and corrosion resistant phases. In this study, the surface of
AISI 316L stainless steel is coated with metal powder having
different composition by tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding surface
coating method. Ti, B4C and SiC metal powders of different ratios
were used as coating powder. The corrosion properties of coated
samples were characterized by potentiostatic polarization test.
Corrosion test results showed that corrosion properties vary
depending on the coating components.
