Abstract:Because of the microstructural anisotropy for laser cladding materials, the tribo-corrosion performance can vary significantly with different directions. In this study, one certain Fe-based coating was fabricated by laser cladding. To study the effects of anisotropy, three working surfaces (0°, 45°, and 90° to the building direction) were machined from the laser cladding samples; as-cast samples with an approximately homogeneous structure were prepared as controls. The tribo-corrosion tests were conducted in a… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
