(Ti,Mo)C multiple carbide reinforced Fe-based composite coating was produced by laser melting a precursor mixture graphite, ferrotitanium (Fe–Ti), and ferromolybdenum (Fe–Mo) powders. The results showed that flowerlike and cubic type (Ti,Mo)C multiple carbides were formed during laser cladding process. The selective area diffraction pattern analysis indicated that (Ti,Mo)C crystallizes with cubic structure, which indicates that (Ti,Mo)C carbides were multiple carbides with Mo dissolved in the TiC structure. The formation of (Ti,Mo)C particles was achieved via a nucleation-growth mechanism during the laser cladding process. Increasing the amount of Fe–Mo in the reactants led to a decrease of carbide size and an increase of volume fraction of carbides. The coating possessed good cracking resistance when the amount of Fe–Mo was controlled within a range of 15 wt %. The Fe-based surface coating reinforced by (Ti,Mo)C multiple carbides gave an excellent wear resistance.

Iron-based composite coatings reinforced with TiB2–TiC multiple ceramic have been fabricated from a precursor of B4C , TiO2 and Al powders by laser cladding. The effect of TiO2 and Al on the microstructure and wear properties of the coatings was investigated. The results showed that the volume fraction, type and size of the reinforcements were influenced by the content of TiO2 and Al . TiB2 and TiC were evenly distributed in the coating; however, most of Al2O3 were ejected from the coatings, only few of them retained in the coating acting as nucleation core of reinforcement or inclusion. The microhardness and wear resistance of the coatings were improved, whereas the friction coefficients of the coatings were considerably lower than that of substrate.

Ni-Co-W composite coatings modified by different contents of Co-based alloy powder in the Ni-based alloy with 35 wt.% WC (Ni35WC) were deposited on stainless steel by laser cladding. The influence of compositional and microstructural modification on the wear properties has been comparatively investigated by XRD, SEM, and EDS techniques. It was found that the austenite dendrites in the modified coating adding 50 wt.% Co-based alloy were refined and a lot of Cr23C6 or M23(C, B)6 compounds with fine lamellar feature were formed around austenitic grain boundaries or in the intergranular regions. The contribution of element Co to the modification of Ni35WC coating is that it cannot only promote the formation of more hard compounds to refine austenite grains, but also refine the size of precipitates, and change the phase type of eutectic structure as a result of disappeared Cr boride brittle phases. A noticeable improvement in wear resistance is obtained in the Ni35WC coating with 50 wt.% Co-based alloy, which makes the wear rate decreased by about 53 % and 30% by comparison to that of the substrate and the Ni35WC coating, respectively. It is suggested that the improvement is closely related to the composite coating being strengthened owing to the increase of coating hardness, formation of a fine-grained microstructure caused by Co, and fine hard precipitate phases in the eutectic structure.

Laser cladding of the Fe3Al + B4C/TiN + Al2O3 pre-placed powders on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy can form the Ti3Al/Fe3Al + TiN/TiB2 composite coating, which improved the wear resistance of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface. In this study, the Ti3Al/Fe3Al + TiN/TiB2 composite coating has been researched by means of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. It was found that during the laser cladding process, Al2O3 can react with TiB2 , leading to the formations of Ti3Al and B . This principle can be used to improve the Fe3Al + B4C/TiN laser-cladded coating on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Furthermore, during the cladding process, C consumed the oxygen in Fe3Al + B4C /TiN + Al2O3 molten pool, which retarded the productions of the redundant metal oxides.

In this paper, the ((CoCrFeNi)95Nb5)100−xMox (x = 1, 1.5 and 2) high-entropy alloy (HEA) coatings were fabricated on the substrate of 45# steel by laser cladding process under different laser beam power. The influence of laser beam power and molybdenum element content on the microstructure and microhardness of the HEA coatings was investigated. Results show that the HEA coatings were composed of face-centered cubic (FCC) phase and Laves phase, had low porosity, and bonded well to the substrate. The Mo1 coating is composed of cellular dendritic structures and columnar dendritic structures. With the increase of molybdenum element content, the columnar dendritic structures disappeared, the grains are refined, and the arrangement of grains is more compact. The volume fraction of the interdendritic phase under the laser beam power of 800 W was small and irregular. After the laser beam power was increased to 1000 W, the volume fraction of the interdendritic phase was increased. Under the laser beam power of 1200 W, the volume fraction of the interdendritic phase was small again. Therefore, the coatings fabricated under the laser beam power of 1000 W had a larger volume fraction of the interdendritic phase and higher microhardness. With the increase in molybdenum content, the grain changed from columnar dendrite to cellular dendrite, and the microhardness of the coating increased. The characteristics of the laser cladding process, the formation of Laves phase, and the fine grain strengthening lead to high microhardness of the coatings.
