In the present study, the surface of commercial purity titanium (CP-Ti) was alloyed with preplaced powder of Fe, C and Si using a tungsten inert gas (TIG) at different energy input. The effect of energy inputs (1080 and 1350 J/mm) on the melt geometry, topography, microstructure and hardness were...
