The microstructure evolution, mechanical properties, and tribological properties of deposited metal Fe-C-Cr-Ti-B alloy by self-shielded flux-cored wire electrode (FCAW S) with the introduction of exothermic addition and without it are investigated. Experimental studies showed that the introduction o...
