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.

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.
