In situ reaction synthesized TiB reinforced titanium matrix composites were fabricated using rapid non-equilibrium synthesis techniques of laser cladding. TiB/Ti composite coating was treated on Ti-6Al-4V surface using Ti and B powder mixture by laser cladding. Microstructure and dry sliding wear behavior of the in situ synthesized TiB/Ti composite coatings were investigated by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), hardness tester and friction and wear tester. The composite coatings consist of Ti, TiB and intermetallic compounds. The TiB reinforcement dispersed homogeneously in the composite coatings. The wear tests show that the friction coefficient and wear weight loss ratio of the coatings is lower than that of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The composite coating was reinforced by the in situ synthesized TiB ceramic particles. Based on the SEM observation, effects of scan speed on hardness and wear resistance of the laser cladding coatings were investigated and discussed.

In order to improve the wear resistance of Ti alloys, different mass ratios of Ti-Si-Al powders were designed to fabricate hard phases reinforced intermetallic matrix composite coatings on the Ti-6Al-4V substrate by laser cladding. The corresponding coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and high resolution transmission microscopy (HRTEM). The HV-1000 hardness tester and MM200 wear test machine were employed to test the hardness and the wear resistance of the composite coatings, respectively. The composite coatings mainly consisted of the reinforcements of Ti5Si3, Ti3AlC2 and Ti7Al5Si[Formula: see text] and the matrix of Ti3Al, TiAl, TiAl3 and [Formula: see text]-Ti. The micro-hardness of the Ti-35Al-15Si coating was from 956 HV[Formula: see text] to 1130 HV[Formula: see text], which was approximately 3–4 times of the substrate and the highest in the three samples. The wear rate of the Ti-35Al-15Si coating was 0.023[Formula: see text]cm3[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]min[Formula: see text], which was about 1/4 of the Ti-6Al-4V substrate. It was the lowest in the three samples.

In the present study, plasma spray welding was used to prepare an in-situ niobium carbide (NbC) reinforced Ni-based composite coating on the low carbon steel, and the phase composition and the microstructure of the composite coatings were studied. The wear resistance and the wear mechanism of the composite coatings were also researched by the wear tests. The results showed that the main phases of the composite coating were NbC, γ-Ni, Cr23C6, Ni3Si, CrB, Cr5B3, Cr7C3 and FeNi3. A number of fine in-situ NbC particles and numerous chromium carbide particles were distributed in the γ-Ni matrix. The increase in the mass fraction of Nb and NiCr-Cr3C2 could lead to the increase in NbC particles in the composite coatings. Due to the high hardness of NbC and chromium carbides, the micro-hardness and the wear resistance of the composite coatings were advanced. The composite coating with the powder mixtures of 20% (Nb + NiCr-Cr3C2) and 80% NiCrBSi had the highest micro-hardness and the best wear resistance in this study. The average micro-hardness reached the maximum value 1025HV0.5. The volume loss was 39.2 mm3, which was merely 37% of that of the NiCrBSi coating and 6% of that of the substrate under the identical conditions.

Tc4 Alloy

TiN and WS2 + hBN reinforced Ni-based alloy self-lubricating composite coatings were fabricated on TC4 alloy by laser cladding using TiN, NiCrBSi, WS2, and hBN powder mixtures. Energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), and optical microscopy (OM) were adopted to investigate the microstructure. The wear behaviors of the self-lubricating composite coatings were evaluated under large contact load in room temperature, dry-sliding wear-test conditions. Results indicated that the phases of the coatings mainly include γ-Ni, TiN, TiNi, TiW, WS2, and TiS mixtures. The average microhardness of the composite coating is 2.3–2.7 times that of the TC4 matrix. Laser cladding TiN/WS2 + hBN/NiCrBSi self-lubricating composite coatings revealed a higher wear resistance and lower friction coefficient than those of the TC4 alloy substrate. The friction coefficient (COF) of the coatings was oscillating around approximately 0.3458 due to the addition of self-lubricant WS2 + hBN and hard reinforcement TiN. The wear behaviors testing showed that the wear resistance of the as-received TC4 was significantly improved by a laser cladding TiN/WS2 + hBN/NiCrBSi self-lubricating composite coating.

Tc4 Alloy

In this paper, TiC reinforced composite coatings were fabricated on TC4 alloy by laser cladding Ti,Al,Si, TiC and Y2O3 mixed powders. Microstructures and properties of the clad coatings with and without Y2O3 were discussed by comparative experiments. SEM, XRD and EDS were employed to discover the microstructures and the composition of phases. The hardness and wear resistance of the coatings were tested by the MM200 wear test machine and a HV-1000 digital hardness tester, respectively. The results showed that the coating was majorly composed of Ti5Si3, Ti7Al5[Formula: see text], Ti3AlC2, Ti3Al, Al3Ti, TiAl and Y2O3. The dilution zone exhibited a metallurgical bonding without pores and cracks. Compared with the TC4 substrate, the hardness and wear resistance of the coatings were heightened by 5–6 and 4.5–5.8 times, respectively. With 2.0[Formula: see text]wt.% Y2O3 addition, the microstructure of the coating was refined significantly, and the microhardness and dry sliding wear resistance were enhanced further. The effects of Y2O3 were attributed to heterogeneous nucleation of the residual Y2O3.

Az91d Magnesium Alloy

To improve the wear property of magnesium alloy, wear-resistant TiC and in-situ ZrC co-reinforced Zr-based amorphous composite coating has been fabricated on AZ91D magnesium alloy by laser cladding using mixed powders of Zr52.5Cu17.9Ni14.6Al10Ti5-TiC. The microstructure of the coating was characterized by XRD and SEM techniques. The wear resistance of the coating was evaluated under dry sliding wear test condition. The results show that the coating mainly consists of amorphous and different crystalline phases. The coating exhibits excellent wear resistance due to the recombination action of amorphous and crystalline phases, and the wear resistance improves further with the increase of TiC content. The main wear mechanism of the coating and the AZ91D sample are different, the former is abrasive wear and the latter is adhesive wear.

1045 Steel

A composite coating with enhanced mechanical properties including high hardness and excellent wear resistance was produced by laser cladding of mixed Ni45 and high-carbon ferrochrome powders on an ASTM 1045 steel substrate. Different quantities, ranging from 10 to 50 wt.% of high-carbon ferrochrome powder were added to the Ni45 powder to investigate the effect of mixture content on the cladding performance. The microstructure of the coatings were examined using scanning electron microscope, and the wear resistance was compared using a wear tester apparatus among the different cases. The results showed that the microstructure of the coating with 30 wt.% high-carbon ferrochrome content was mainly fine solid solution phase. With the increase of high-carbon ferrochrome content to 40 wt.% and above, cracks appeared on the cladding surface due to a large amount of chromium carbides formed during the process. The microhardness was enhanced remarkably by laser cladding the composite coating on the 1045 substrate, with 2.4 times higher than the hardness of the substrate when 30 wt.% high-carbon ferrochrome content was added. The best wear performance was achieved when the high-carbon ferrochrome content was 30 wt.%, demonstrating the smallest surface roughness and depth of wear marks. With further increased high-carbon ferrochrome content, microcracking and delamination were observed on the worn surfaces.

Ni-based TiN-TiC composite coating was fabricated on DZ125 superalloy surface by laser cladding. The phase constitution and microstructures were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Microhardness measurements and wear experiments without lubrication were also accomplished. The experimental results showed that a pore- and crack-free coating with metallurgical bonding to the substrate was obtained. Solidification morphologies along the section of the coating varied from directional dendrite in the interface to random dendrite in the surface. The coating was mainly composed of γ-Ni, M23C6, TiN, TiC particles and a small amount of NiTi, respectively. The average microhardness of 705HK for the coating was 2.3 times higher than that of the substrate. Wear tests indicated that wear resistance of the coating was significantly improved compared with that of the substrate. The improvement in hardness and wear resistance was attributed to TiN and TiC phase and chromium carbide uniformly dispersed in the matrix of the Ni-based TiN-TiC composite coating.
