I. INTRODUCTION
Weld hardfacing techniques are employed mainly to
extend or improve the service life of engineering
components and to reduce their cost, either by rebuilding or
by fabricating in such a way as to produce a composite wall
section. Other desired properties obtained may include
wear resistance, corrosion resistance, etc. In recent years,
weld hardfacing processes have been developed rapidly and
are now applied in numerous industries, e.g., chemical and
fertilizer plants, nuclear and steam power plants, pressure
vessels and agriculture machines, railways, and even in
aircraft and missile components [1]. Hardfacing is
primarily done to enhance the surface properties of the base
metal (substrate) and hardfaced materials generally exhibit
better wear, corrosion, and oxidation resistance than the
base metal. Percentage dilution plays a major role in
determining the properties of a hardfaced surface [2].
