This chapter presents a novel method for analysis and optimization of the in-situ formation of TiC-reinforced composite surface layers (TRL) on a ductile cast iron substrate during the laser surface alloying process, combining the experimental approach with the computational thermodynamics. The microstructure of the TRLs has been assessed by light optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results of thermodynamic calculations with the Scheil-Gulliver model showed a good agreement with the experimental results, indicating that the actual solidification path for the analyzed Fe-C-Si-Ti alloy systems under the investigated range of laser processing conditions is close to the Scheil-Gulliver assumption.

AbstractDiode laser surface alloying process was used to the in-situ synthesis of TiC-reinforced composite surface layers on the ductile cast iron substrate. The obtained composite surface layers were investigated using optical and scanning electron microscopy, and XRD diffraction.It was found that the morphology and fraction of TiC phase is directly dependent upon both the concentration of titanium in the molten pool and also the solidification rate. With increasing titanium content, the fraction of TiC increases, whereas the fraction of cementite decreases. The TiC phase promotes a heterogeneous nucleation of primary austenite grains, what reduces a tendency of cracking in the alloyed layers.
