The effect of graphene nanosheet (GNS) reinforcement on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the titanium matrix composite has been discussed. For this purpose, composites with various GNS contents were prepared by cold pressing and sintering at various time periods. Density calculation by Archimedes’ principle revealed that Ti/GNSs composites with reasonable high density (more than 99.5% of theoretical density) were produced after sintering for 5 h. Microstructural analysis by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) showed that TiC particles were formed in the matrix during the sintering process as a result of a titanium reaction with carbon. Higher GNS content as well as sintering time resulted in an increase in TiC particle size and volume fraction. Microhardness and shear punch tests demonstrated considerable improvement of the specimens’ mechanical properties with the increment of sintering time and GNS content up to 1 wt. %. The microhardness and shear strength of 1 wt. % GNS composites were enhanced from 316 HV and 610 MPa to 613 HV and 754 MPa, respectively, when composites sintered for 5 h. It is worth mentioning that the formation of the agglomerates of unreacted GNSs in 1.5 wt. % GNS composites resulted in a dramatic decrease in mechanical properties.

In situ reaction synthesized TiB reinforced titanium matrix composites were fabricated using rapid non-equilibrium synthesis techniques of laser cladding. Titanium matrix composite were laser cladding treated on Ti-6Al-4V using Ti and B powder mixture, and the designed weight fractions of B were 10 wt.% in the starting powder mixture. The composite coating mainly consists of α-Ti and TiB. The reinforcement TiB is dispersed homogeneously in the composite coating with pre-placed powder thickness of 0.5mm. The influence of pre-placed powder thickness on microstructure of laser cladding coatings was discussed.

A titanium matrix composite coating reinforced by in situ synthesized TiB and TiC was deposited on Ti6Al4V by laser cladding. Microstructural analyses were made by means of X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Electron Probe Micro-Analysis (EPMA). The solidification process was also discussed in detail. The results show that the coating is composed of -Ti cellular dendrites and a eutectic in which a large number of needle-shaped TiB whiskers and a few equiaxial TiC particles are embedded. A thin dilution zone with a thickness of 50 m is observed at the interface, and consists of a few TiB and TiC and a large number of lamella grains in which a thin needle-shaped martensitic microstructure is exist. The solidification process could be divided into four stages: nucleation and growth of primary -Ti phase, precipitation of a binary eutectic -Ti+TiB, precipitation of a ternary eutectic -Ti+TiB+TiC and solid transformation from -Ti to -Ti.
