N2 - Because of its biocompatibility with the human body system and its abundance in nature, magnesium and magnesium alloys present themselves as materials of choice for the development of diverse biomedical components. In view of this, research on the development of various magnesium composites to meet specific applications has been in increase. In this study, magnesium surface composites were developed by means of friction stir processing which happened to be an upcoming manufacturing technique. Stainless steel powder particles were used as reinforcing elements and analysis of the developed composite were considered along the longitudinal direction of the surface of the stir zone. Microstructural observation showed proper distribution of refined particles. The derived surface roughness parameters exhibited values (are 1.79, 8.21 and 10.41 μm) similar to those often seen in such composites. Slight increase in the hardness (69.84, 72.55 and 73.24HV) of the composites in comparison to the base material proved the effect of the process as well of that of the reinforcing powder. The coefficient of friction was much stable at higher load (0.538 at 10 N).
