Reihe: Advances in Surface Engineering and Tribology

Microwave Claddings presents an effective approach for improving the surface properties of materials, providing distinct advantages compared to conventional procedures such as flame spraying or arc welding. It explains how composites, metals, ceramics, and polymers can be coated with microwave claddings to improve resistance to corrosion, durability, and strength.

Exploring this promising application of microwave technology, the book demonstrates its usage in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and oil and gas, due to its capacity to accurately regulate heat input, reduce distortion, and attain exceptional metallurgical bonding. It discusses the mechanics of microwave heating, cladding processes and materials, computational modeling, and quality control methods. The book includes practical case studies and the critical factors that impact microwave cladding, including substrate material, power level, frequency, and particle feed rate.

The book will interest engineering students and researchers studying tribology, cladding and microwave technology, and manufacturing.
