Investigating the tribological characteristics of copper surface composites reinforced with high entropy alloy (AlCoCrCuFe) through friction stir processing

Abstract The present investigation focuses on the fabrication of Copper-High Entropy Alloy (HEA) surface Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) using the solid-state Friction Stir Process (FSP) and the characterization of wear characteristics. Higher hardness values at the level of 770HV were the cornerstone...
