The surface of 45 steel is quenched by CO2 laser with scanning speed 1000 mm/min and different laser power 1000W, 1200W, 1400W, 1600W and 1800W. Experiments are carried out to analyze microstructure, friction and wear properties of quenched 45 steel. The results show that the quenching layer thickness increases gradually with the increase of laser power,and the maximum value of quenching layer hardness increases first and then decreases. When the laser power is 1600W, the maximum hardness value is 883HV0.5. But when the laser power is 1800W, the hardness of quenching layer becomes to decrease. The reason is the surface of 45 steel becomes to melt. The wear volume increases first and then decreases too. When laser power is 1600W, the minimum wear volume is 0.08mm3, which is 6.4% to the wear volume of 45 steel matrix without laser quenching. Therefore, better microstructure and properties of 45 steel can be obtained when laser scanning speed is 1000mm/min and laser power is 1600W.

The experiments of laser cladding on the surface of 20 steel were made. High-chromium (Cr) cast iron powder was used as cladding material. The microstructure and hardness of laser cladding layers under different scanning speed were studied. The experiments showed that high-Cr cast iron cladding layer had better properties such as minute crystals, high density, no crack, no gas cavity and good metallurgical bonding with base metal. When the scanning speed was low, such as 10mm/min, the microstructure of cladding layer was cellular dendrite. There were much carbide with the shape of fish-bone distributing among cellular grains. Under higher scanning speed (from 100mm/min to 300mm/min), needle-shaped primary cementite would come into being. When laser scanning speed was 500mm/min, the carbide of cladding zone was very thin. With the increasing of laser scanning speed, the average hardness of cladding zone increased from 388HV0.2 to 580 HV0.2.

To explore the effect of laser scanning speed on the microstructure and performance of Cr3C2-NiCr cermet layers fabricated by in-situ laser cladding, Cr3C2-NiCr cermet layers were laser cladded from Ni/Cr/Graphite (25:65:10 wt.%) elemental powder mixtures. The microstructures of the laser cladded cermet layers and the formation mechanism were investigated. In addition, the effect of laser scanning speed on the microstructure, friction and corrosion performance of the Cr3C2-NiCr cermet layers was studied. The results indicated that the in-situ laser cladded Cr3C2-NiCr cermet layers were composed of NiCr binder and Cr3C2. The laser scanning speed had a significant influence on the carbide content, composition and size. Furthermore, it affected the in-situ laser cladded cermet layer’s hardness and wear resistance. The corrosion resistance of the in-situ laser cladded cermet layer was superior to that of laser cladded nickel-based alloy and was improved with decreasing laser scanning speed.

Ni60WC35 self-fluxing composite coating was fabricated by transverse-flow CO2 laser apparatus on 45 medium-carbon steel surfaces. The microstructure and phase transform behavior of WC reinforced particles under the laser cladding conditions was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The results show that laser scanning speed has a great important influence on the microstructure of Ni-based WC composite coating, WC particles has a transition to the Ni-based coating. The main feature of WC particle is its edge hard phase has transformed into needle phase, and the needle phase areas increase with the decrease of the laser scanning speed. Some WC particles turn into needle clusters structure, and then white block phase. In addition, WC particle has some microscopic defects, and the surface priority defect can be dissolved. When the pool temperature rises to 1250°C, WC decomposition reaction become W2C and C. The elements diffusion can promote the dissolution of WC particles when the pool temperature rises continuously.

The hard and corrosion resistant coatings of Mo2NiB2 cermet were prepared by the laser cladding technique. The influences of the Mo:B ratio and the laser scanning speed on the microstructure and property of the Mo2NiB2 cermet coatings were investigated. The results showed that the laser scanning speed of 1.5 mm/s and the Mo:B ratio of 1 were more beneficial to the formation of Mo2NiB2 cermet than 2.0 mm/s and 0.8, 1.2, respectively. The amount of the Mo2NiB2 ceramic phases were decreased from the top layer to the bottom layer of the coating. The changes of microstructure and composition led to the changes of hardness and corrosion resistance of the Mo2NiB2 cermet coatings. The coating prepared at the Mo:B ratio of 1 and the scanning speed of 1.5 mm/s possessed the highest hardness, and the hardness gradually decreased from the top layer to the bottom layer of the coating. The formation of Mo2NiB2 and {FeM} phases led to the enhanced corrosion resistance of the Mo2NiB2 cermet coatings, and the coating prepared at the Mo:B ratio of 0.8 possessed the best corrosion resistance and the minimum corrosion current.

Titanium alloys have been used for variety of engineering applications but their relatively low hardness and low thermal conductivity are shortcomings that have reduced their potential use. In this work, attempts have been made to study the effects of laser scanning speed and admixed fraction of reinforced Ni–Co powders on clad layer formation and its corresponding properties on Ti–6Al–4V. Laser power of 750[Formula: see text]W, beam size of 3[Formula: see text]mm with argon shield gas flow rate of 1.2[Formula: see text]L/min was made constant, while the powders were premixed and deposited on Ti–6Al–4V with varying compositions at different scanning speeds of 0.6 and 1.2[Formula: see text]m/min. The microstructural analysis, phase constituents and hardness properties of Ni–Co intermetallics reinforced clads were also examined. The morphology of the resultant coatings was analyzed using X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The research results showed that laser cladding coatings displayed enhanced properties such as fine microstructure and good metallurgical bonding with the substrate containing minimal pores with respect to the substrate. Furthermore, the microstructure revealed the formation of various fractions of interdendritic compounds/intermetallics dispersed within the coating matrix which could be responsible for the increased hardness obtained. The average hardness of the coating was about 856[Formula: see text]HV [Formula: see text], which was about 2.5 times that of the substrate.

A thin strip of a Zr -based alloy with a composition of Zr 60 Cu 25 Fe 5 Al 10 (in atom percent) was used as a raw material, and the composite coatings containing Zr -based amorphous phase and crystallites on Ti substrate were fabricated by a one-step laser cladding method without protection. The microstructure, phase constitution, microhardness and wear properties of the coatings were investigated. The results indicate that the microstructure of the coatings is strongly dependent on the laser scanning speed under the conditions of the laser power of 1300 W and laser beam diameter of 6 mm, and the composite coating mainly containing amorphous phase with a small amount of the crystallites can be obtained at the laser scanning speed of 10 mm/s. The composite coating exhibits much higher microhardness than the pure Ti substrate, and thus it behaves superior wear resistance in comparison with the substrate.

In order to characterize the dissolution of cast WC particles in Ni-based WC coatings by laser induction hybrid rapid cladding, NiCrBSi+50 wt.% WC coatings are produced on A3 steel by low and high speed laser induction hybrid cladding (LIHC). When laser scanning speed is only 600 mm/min, the crack-free coating has pores and its dilution is as high as 45%. At the bottom of coating, the cast WC particles are dissolved completely and the herringbone M6C eutectics are precipitated. In the center of coating, the cast WC particles are also dissolved completely and the acicular, blocky and dendritic carbides with relatively low hardness are precipitated. At two sides of coating, some cast WC particles are dissolved partially and interact with Ni-based alloy to form an alloyed reaction layer, while others preserve the primary eutectic structure and high hardness. When laser scanning speed and powder feeding rate are increased to 1500 mm/min and 85.6 g/min, the coating has cracks but no pores. Its dilution can be markedly decreased to 7.8%. Moreover, a majority of WC particles are still composed of primary eutectic structure and keep their high hardness, which can play a positive role in strengthening Ni-based metallic matrix.

In this work we studied the microstructure and microhardness of standard AA2024 alloy and AA2024 alloy with the addition of 1.5% Y after pulsed laser melting (PLM) and selective laser melting (SLM). The SLM process was carried out with a 300 W power and 0.1 m/s laser scanning speed. A dispersed microstructure without the formation of crystallization cracks and low liquation of alloying elements was obtained in Y-modified AA2024 aluminum alloy. Eutectic Al3Y and Al8Cu4Y phases were detected in Y-modified AA2024 aluminum alloy. It is led to a decrease in the formation of crystallization cracks The uniform distribution of alloying elements in the yttrium-modified alloy had a positive effect on the quality of the laser melting zone (LMZ) and microhardness.
