Recent developments in tensile properties of friction welding of carbon fiber-reinforced composite: A review

Abstract In this review article, the joining of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composite with metallic materials by using friction welding techniques was discussed and effects process parameters on weld properties were evaluated. Major involved in plunge depth (PD), dwell time, tool rotational speed. A successful joint poly laminate (CF-PPS)-metal formed an interlayer film additional polyphenylene sulfide. addition, a detailed overview discussed, such as stir spot (FSSW), (FSW), refill (RFSSW). current work, we had focused parameters, process, their development during similar dissimilar metals CFRP joint. Regarding FSSW review, best tensile shear load 7.1 kN obtained from AA5182 at speed 3,000 rpm 5 s time. The thickness for are 1.2 3 mm, respectively. most efficient speed, PD, shoulder penetration depth. heat generated its influence mechanical microstructure along possible defects internal cracks welded joints will be reviewed discussed.
