Abstract
Surface modification techniques are used to enhance the service life of several engineering components by combating wear. Material loss due to wear in various industries is significantly high. Surfacing is a cost-effective and proven method of depositing protective coating. Research is going on over years to reduce the corrosion, erosion, and wear either in the form of using a new corrosion-, erosion-, and wear-resistant material or by improving these properties in the existing material by using surface modification techniques such as hardfacing and surface coating. The economic success of the hardfacing process depends on selective application of hardfacing material and its chemical composition for a particular application. In this paper, an attempt has been made to discuss the various types of surface modification techniques such as hardfacing and surface coating used for combating wear. Surface protection by different hardfacing techniques and surface coatings employed on the substrate surface of material by different methods and their advantages have been discussed.
