Effects of the Processing Parameters of Friction Stir Processing on the Microstructure, Hardness and Tribological Properties of SnSbCu Bearing Alloy

In the study, the friction stir processing (FSP) method was used to modify the surface layer of a tin-based bearing alloy. The modification was aimed at extending the service life of bearings by improving their tribological properties. The results of investigations of the microstructure, hardness an...
