“…An increase in the dilution ratio leads to a decrease in Co, Cr, and Ta elements in the γ ′ and the β intermetallic compounds, as well as a decrease in Zr and Y elements in the clad zone of samples #2 and #3 (tables 4-6). Additionally, an increase in the heat input causes the grains to become larger, resulting in a decrease in the hardness value [7,35]. It is noteworthy that the microhardness of the clad zone is approximately 2.5 times that of the substrate due to the existence of very hard Zr and Y particles in the clad zone.…”

In this study, bilayer laser cladding of Inconel 713LC superalloy was performed by a Nd:YAG laser. Amdry 997 powder was used as the first layer and Metco 204NS ceramic powder as the second layer. The experiments were carried out with different laser parameters to investigate the influence of heat input and laser power density on the microstructure and the hardness of coating. The study revealed that the susceptibility to crack formation in the clad zone increases with the increase in the heat input due to the high cooling rate and intense thermal stress. The formation of shrinkage cavities in the lower half of the clad zone raises with the increase in the heat input owing to reduction in the solidification rate. Microstructural investigations show that a cellular structure is formed at the interface region. The middle area of coating features columnar dendrites, while the upper area of the coating displays very small equiaxed dendrites. The coating mainly comprises γ-Ni, β-NiAl and γ′-Ni3Al phases and the elements of Ni, Co, Cr, Al, Ta, Zr, and Y are homogeneously distributed in the clad zone. As the heat input increases, the microhardness of the samples decreases due to an increase in the dilution ratio. This leads to a decrease of Co, Cr, and Ta elements in the γ′ and the β intermetallic compounds, as well as a reduction of Zr and Y elements in the clad zone.
