To improve the surface hardness and wear resistance of metal parts. Ni-based chromic carbidecomposite coating was prepared on the carbon steel (0.45 mass% C) substrates by laser cladding. Microstructure and wear properties of composite coatings were investigated by SEM, EDS, XRD, Vickers micro-hardness tester and wear machine. The results show that good metallurgical bonding between the Ni-based chromic carbidecomposite coating and carbon steel substrate. Micro-hardness of Ni-based Cr3C2 composite coating along the layer depth presents an evident stepladder distribution. The average micro-hardness of the laser clad coating is about 950 HV. The result of wear experiment shows that Ni-based Cr3C2 composite coating processes good wear resistance.

TiC-TiB2/ Fe matrix composite coatings were in-situ synthesized in the surface of Q235 steel substrate by TIG/cored-wire weld overlaying. The microstructure, micro-hardness and wear resistance of the weld overlay coating were investigated using SEM, XRD, Micro-hardness Tester and Pin-disc Wear Tester respectively. The results showed that the weld overlay coating presented a dense microstructure with defect-free of pore and crack, and better metallurgical bond with the substrate; TiC and TiB2 particulate distributed dispersively in Fe matrix of the weld overlay coatings. The highest Micro-hardness of the weld overlaying was 1657.58HV, which is 6 times higher than the substrate, and wear resistance are also improved at the room temperature under normal atmosphere conditions.

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.

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.

TiC – Fe composite coating was produced on AISI 1020 steel by the tungsten inert gas (TIG) cladding process to increase the hardness and wear resistance properties of the substrate. In this paper authors have investigated the effect of process parameters on the microstructure and hardness value of the coated layer. In this TIG cladding process the variable parameter is only current, whereas the other parameters such as scanning speed, standoff distance, and voltage and gas flow rate are fixed. Fe and TiC powders were mixed in the proper ratio of 80wt% - 20wt% and 90wt% - 10wt% respectively. The microstructure and micro-hardness value of the samples were investigated by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Vickers micro hardness tester. The result of SEM shows the distribution of the coating powder in the cladded zone. Micro hardness profile shows the variation of the hardness value in the cladded zone as well as in the substrate. The hardness value decreases with increase in distance from top surface of the cladded layer, which is due to difference in cooling rate. Also, the hardness value of cladded layer decreases with increase in current from 140A to 150A. The maximum hardness value of cladded layer was achieved as 262 HV0.05 with 140A current and composition of 90 wt.% - 10wt% (Fe - TiC), which was nearly two times higher than that of the as received AISI 1020 steel substrate.

γ-Fe/(Cr, Fe)7C3 lamellar eutectics reinforced the composite coating was deposited onto the 16Mn steel surface to enhance its surface hardness and wear resistance. The microstructure, phase composition, microhardness as well as wear resistance of the cladding coating were explored. Results indicated that the coating showed the dense and defect-free metallurgical bonding with the substrate and mainly consisted of (Cr, Fe)7C3, γ-Fe/(Cr, Fe)7C3 lamellar eutectic, B4C and carbon fibers. (Cr, Fe)7C3, B4C and carbon fibers were tightly embedded in the γ-Fe/(Cr, Fe)7C3 lamellar eutectics matrix. The microhardness and wear resistance of the coating compared with that of the substrate were highly improved by nearly 5 and 3 times, respectively.

By plasma jet surface metallurgy, the thick composite coatings reinforced by in-situ TiC were produced on low carbon steel. Composition, microstructures and performance were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-hardness tester and wear tester. The results showed that the excellent bonding between the coating and the carbon steel substrate was achieved by strong metallurgical interface. The microstructure of the coating is mainly composed of γ-(Fe, Ni) dendrite, M23C6, CrB and in-situ synthesized TiC ceramic particle. Because of the particulate reinforcement, the dispersion strengthening, refinement strengthening, micro-hardness and wear resistant of Fe-based coating can be enhanced.

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.
