چکیده مقاله
Friction stir welding FSW is a solid state welding process which has been successfully applied in several industries such as aerospace and automotive for joining materials The friction stir tool is the key element in FSW process In this study, the influence of four different tool pin geometries on tensile strength of two types of polypropylene composite plates with 30% glass fiber GF and 30% carbon fiber CF have been investigated For this purpose four different stir pins namely threaded taper pin, square pin, four flute threaded pin and threaded taper pin with chamfer were made and used to carry out butt welding of 5 mm thick plates Standard tensile tests were performed to evaluate the tensile strength of the welded specimens The results indicated that threaded taper pin with chamfer produced welds with better surface appearance and higher tensile strength It was also found that with this tool, the tensile strength of the specimens for GF composite and CF composite were about 30% and 34% that of the base materials respectively
