Elektrochemische und werkstoffphysikalische Untersuchungen von Laserstrahl-umgeschmolzenen Eisenwerkstoffen

Electrochemical and material-physical investigations of laser melted iron materials The surfaces of pure iron, St 38 and KT 45 samples were melted by a CO₂-cw laser. Electrochemical and material-physical properties of the generated surface layers were investigated. There exist significant differences between untreated and laser melted samples, whose possible causes are discussed.
