Microstructure and Microhardness of Laser Cladding NickelBased Gradient Coating on Ti6Al4V Alloy

CO_2 laser was performed to prepare laser cladding Ni-based gradient coating on the surface of Ti6Al4V alloy so as to improve the wear resistance and high-temperature oxidation resistance of the alloy. The microstructure and microhardness of the laser cladding Ni-based gradient coating were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope and microhardness meter, respectively, using the Ti6Al4V substrate as the reference. As a result, it was feasible to prepare continuous and homogeneous Ni-based coating free of pores and cracks by optimizing the laser cladding parameters. The resulting Ni-based laser cladding coating was composed of dendrite and intergranular eutectic and had good metallurgical bonding to the substrate. Moreover, the Ni-based coating had gradient microhardness, with the maicrohardness to gradually vary from the surface to the Ti-alloy substrate.
