...Figures 9 and 10 give an insight into the already established fact that the deposition occurs on the Ti-alloy surface in the form of a recast layer....
[...]
...This results in low heat concentration over the Ti-alloy work surface, creating smaller craters, thus reducing the SR. Additionally, as the WS2 powder content varies from 6 to 12 g L−1, large-sized craters are formed as a result of the primary discharges and get suppressed due to the accumulation of excessive powders in the gap....
[...]
...Therefore, brass does not favour the absorption of enough heat energy, which eventually gets distributed throughout the work piece, forming tinier or smaller craters on the Ti-alloy surface....
[...]
...The high heat generated in the powder-rich spark gap allows the molten material flow coming towards the Ti-alloy work surface....
[...]
...In the current research, the influence of different micro-tools (brass and tungsten), the infusion of powders in the EDM oil (dielectric liquid), and the coating process parameters on the surface modification of Ti-alloy were investigated....
