Samples were welded by metal inert gas welding method. 100% argon was used to protect fusion zone. Aluminum alloy 5356 was used as the filler metal. The samples for microstructure, corrosion, and wear tests were prepared from welded and repaired plates. To study the microstructural properties, the samples were mounted, polished, and then etched by the Keller's solution. Optical microscopy was used for metallurgical analysis. The corrosion behavior was evaluated in 3.5% NaCl solution and at a temperature of 25 °C using a potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy methods. Dry sliding wear behavior was evaluated by pin on disc method and scanning electron microscopy. %U https://ijogst.put.ac.ir/article_53910_dbc51cf360c7d0c2b84af29e4b8d5da5.pdf
