The phase component, microstructure, composition distribution and properties of the composite layer were investigated. The composite layer has graded microstructures and compositions, due to the fast melting followed by rapid solidification and cooling during laser cladding. The TiC powders are completely dissolved into the melted layer during melting and segregated as fine dendrites when solidified. The size of TiC dendrites decreases with increasing depth. Y2O3 fine particles distribute in the whole clad layer. The Y2O3 particle enhanced Ni/TiC composite layer has a quite uniform hardness along depth with a maximum value of HV1380, which is 4 times higher than the initial hardness. The wear resistance of the Ti alloy is significantly improved after laser cladding due to the high hardness of the composite coating.展开更多

The results have shown that TiC particles are of two different morphologies f coarse dendritical primary TiC and short bar-shape eutectic TiC. Al content has great effects on the morphology of TiC. With the increasing of Al content, the morphology of primary TiC changes from coarse developed dendrite into short bar-shape or plate--shape TiC with 35%Al. Meanwhile, the structure of the matrix changes from single Ti to Ti and Ti3Al, and to Ti3Al and TiAl. However, the C content has no influence on the microstructure of matrix. When the C content is less than 1.2%, the dendrite TiC disappears and only short bar-shape or plate-shape TiC exists in the composites. In addition, the effect of he3t treatment on the morphology of TiC has also Studied.展开更多

The phase composition,microstructure and hardness of the TiC/Ti-6Al-4V composites were investigated by XRD,SEM and hardness testing equipment,respectively. The results show that the reinforcements are distributed uniformly in the matrix alloy. With the carbon content of the composites increasing from 0.15% to2.0%,the morphology of TiC transforms from particle into short-bar shape or chain-type consisting of featheriness or wheat-shape and finally into dendritic. Simultaneously,the hardness of the composites increases. The formation mechanisms of TiC can be analyzed as follows:the growth of dendritic primary TiC before the peritectic reaction is dominated by the solute concentration gradient,after peritectic reaction,the nucleation and growth of TiC in β-Ti leads to its forming of short-bar shape. The dendritic TiC mainly is distributed in the matrix grain,but the short-bar shape TiC mainly segregates at the grain boundary,especially at the triangular grain boundaries.展开更多
