Abstract:To enhance the performance of TC4 titanium alloy, laser cladding technology was used to prepare a Ti-Al/WC composite coating on its surface, and the influence of laser power on the physical phase composition, microstructure, friction and wear properties and hardness of the coating were studied. The studies indicate that the coating consists of Ti3Al2, TiAl, Ti3Al gray matrix organization and TiAl, Ti2AlC gray-white precipitation organization. When laser power increases, the gray-white precipitated tissue incre… Show more
