Cu-TiB2 composite coatings were in-situ synthesized on the copper substrate by using a Nd: YAG laser. The microstructure of the coating and the bonding interface between the laser cladding layer and the substrate were studied by X-ray and SEM. The microhardness and the wear resisting property were tested. The results show that the TiB2 particles were well-proportioned and spherical existing in the coating layer, the bonding interface between the layer and substrate was metallurgical bonding. The microhardness reaches HV450 and the wear resistance is about 10 times as much as that of Cu substate.

To increase the strength and wear resistance of material surfaces, various combinations of B4C and 80TiFe powder were mixed into a Fe60 self-fluxing alloy powder; the composite coatings reinforced by TiB2–TiC were successfully prepared on Q235 steel surfaces by laser cladding. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to study the microstructure and chemical and phase composition. Microhardness and wear testers were used to investigate the mechanical properties. The results show that the interfaces of composite coatings and substrate materials are excellent for metallurgical bonding. The block-like TiB2 particles and flower-like TiC particles are uniformly distributed in the cladding coating. When the mass fraction of the mixed powder is 30%, the average microhardness of the coating is approximately 1100 HV[Formula: see text], which is 50% higher than that without the mixed powder, and demonstrates the best wear with a performance twice as better as that of the substrate.

Laser cladding of Co50 alloy coating and Co50 composite coatings doped with 10, 20, and 30 wt.% TiC particles was performed on the H13 steel surface. The effects of TiC concentration on the phase composition, microstructure, and microhardness of the coatings were studied. The results indicated that, in 10% TiC coating, the “bright band” is a quite flat-growth tissue, while with 20% TiC, the “white bright band” contains a large amount of black TiC particles. The composite coating Co50, 10% TiC, and 20% TiC samples can clearly distinguish the cladding zone, bonding zone, and heat-affected zone, and a good metallurgical bond is formed between the coating and the substrate. The 30% TiC coating and the substrate are not well bonded, which is attributed to the high TiC content in the coating; however, it has the best surface morphology, and there is no porosity on the surface. 10% TiC coatings have poor surface quality, show a spraying material phenomenon on two side edges which is quite serious, and a lot of porosity on the surface of the coating. In addition, 10% TiC coating includes the original TiC particles and primary TiC particles that are precipitated in situ from the liquid phase during solidification; 20% TiC coating indicates a large amount of TiC in the form of cross petals and twigs, and the figure points out that TiC exists like a large number of diffusely distributed spherical structures in the 30% TiC coating. The coatings of TiC/Co composite with less than 20% TiC showed good metallurgical bonding characteristics with the H13 steel surface.

The non-smooth surfaces on 45 steel were prepared by laser cladding with KF-300A alloy powder on the basis of the bionic non-smooth morphology of shark scales. The rib-type coatings were composed of hot-rolled steel 45 and clad layers containing hard phases such as WC/W2C. In this paper, the influence of laser power and defocusing distance on the quality of cladding layer were investigated. The microstructure of the coatings was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, with attached energy dispersive spectroscopy microprobe, and by X-ray diffraction. SEM inspection of the samples showed that all coatings exhibited similar phases in their microstructure, but the phases presented differ in morphology, size and distribution. Dilution and interaction zone of the coatings were also discussed in this paper. The results showed that the non-smooth coatings were crack-free and had a good metallurgical bonding with 45 steel trenches with a low dilution under the optimum laser conditions (P=700 W, f =14 mm, V=3 mm/s, continuous powder feeding voltage 2.1 V, nitrogen protection).

Laser cladding was applied to deposit in situ Fe - Ti - B composite coatings on mild carbon steel with precursor of ferrotitanium, ferroboron and pure Fe alloy powders. The composite coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). Wear resistance of the laser-cladded Fe - Ti - B coatings was evaluated under dry sliding condition at room temperature using block-on-ring wear tester. Results indicate that in situ reinforcements of TiB 2 and Fe 2 B can be synthesized in the Fe - Ti - B coatings. The amount of TiB 2 increases with the increase of content of ferrotitanium and ferroboron in the precursor. Reinforcements are formed through the liquid-precipitation route following the solidification path of the Fe - Ti - B system. Hardness and wear properties of the coatings improved significantly in comparison to the as-received substrate due to the presence of hard reinforcements.

The Fe-based composite coating reinforced by in situ synthesized multiphase ceramic particles has been successfully prepared by laser cladding preplaced powder on 42CrMo steel. The experimental results of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron micrograph indicate the coating is consisted by γ-Fe phase and Fe-Cr fine phase which possesses the better oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance. In-situ synthesized V(C,N), Cr2B3 and Cr3C2 particulates which are uniformly distributed in the composite coatings. The wear test showed that these reinforcement particulates improved significantly wear resistance of the coatings. The wear mass loss of the coating is about one tenth of the 42CrMo substrate. Laser cladding layers have better oxidation resistance. The oxide scale of the coatings is one eighth of the substrate through 750 constant temperature for 120h oxidation.

The Ni60A powder was clad on the copper by the laser through coaxial power feeding. The hardness and erosion resistance of the substrate and the cladding layer were measured and made contrasts. The morphology and the microstructures of the cladding layer were analyzed by scanning electronic microscopy as well as the microstructure of bonding interface. The contents of major elements in the bonding interface were studied by energy dispersive spectrometer. Moreover, large amount of (Cu and Ni) solid solution formed a metallurgic and tight bonding with the good dilution between the substrate and cladding layer.

Abstract In the study for this contribution, production of in situ synthesized TiB2 particles in iron-based composite coatings using four different submerged arc welding powders (fluxes) containing increasing amounts of ferrotitanium and ferroboron with S1 welding wire, were targeted. For this purpose, coating deposition was carried out to improve the hardness and wear properties of the AISI 1020 steel surfaces using hybrid submerged arc welding. In hybrid submerged arc welding, the welding pool is protected by both welding powders and an argon gas atmosphere. To examine the composite coatings, visual, chemical, microstructural analyses and hardness and wear tests were carried out. With the use of increasing amounts of ferrotitanium and ferroboron in the welding powders, it was observed that the microstructure of the coatings changed in terms of TiB2 particle geometries such as rectangular and hexagonal; volume fractions of TiB2 particles in the coating microstructures increased; hardness values of coatings were enhanced from 34 HRC to 41 HRC; the wear resistance of the coatings improved, and worn surface images of the coatings caused by the counter body changed from continuous with deep scratches to discontinuous with fine scratches and crater cavities.

The Ni–Cr–Fe metal powder was deposited on EA4T steel by laser cladding technology. The microstructure and chemical composition of the cladding layer were analyzed by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The bonding ability between the cladding layer and the matrix was measured. The results showed that the bonding between the cladding layer and the EA4T steel was metallurgical bonding. The microstructure of cladding layer was composed of planar crystals, columnar crystals and dendrite, which consisted of Cr2Ni3, [Formula: see text] phase, M[Formula: see text]C6 and Ni3B phases. When the powder feeding speed reached 4 g/min, the upper bainite occurred in the heat affected zone (HAZ). Moreover, the tensile strength of the joint increased, while the yield strength and the ductility decreased.
