A microwave hybrid heating technique was applied to produce the NiCr-Mo-SiC composite cladding on Titan-31. The developed claddings were tested for microstructural features, phase analysis, microhardness, and surface roughness parameters using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (X...
