Magnesium alloys are one of the most promising lightweight structural materials. However,
the poor corrosion and wear resistance restrain their further application. As a kind of surface …

This paper describes the numerous aspects of the hardfacing of iron-based alloys. A
systematic review has been conducted to explore the effect of various alloying elements …

Abstract In this study, TiC/TiAl composite coatings are prepared on TC4 substrate via laser
cladding. The effect of TiC content (5, 10, 15, and 20 vol%) on the microstructure …

In the process of strengthening the substrate's surface properties, it is easy to produce
cracks or air holes and other defects between the coatings and the substrate, and rare earth …

In this paper, the effect of rare earth oxide additive on coating material deposited by laser
cladding process on various engineering materials has been discussed. The purpose of rare …

Y 2 O 3 particles act as nucleation sites in the additive manufacturing (AM) process of
titanium alloy, making its microstructure refined and homogeneous, which is very beneficial …

Micro-and nano-structured WC reinforced Co-based cladding layers on Ti single
bond6Alsingle bond 4V substrates were synthesized by laser cladding. The structure, phase …

As an essential material of aviation composite forming mold, Invar alloys will produce
defects such as wear and crack during long-term service. In this paper, the rare earth oxide …

Multi-track Ti-based wear-resistant composite coatings were fabricated on TC4 alloy
surfaces using laser-clad TC4+ Ni45+ Co–WC mixed powders with different Y 2 O 3 …

In situ TiC–VC reinforced Fe-based cladding layer was obtained on low carbon steel surface
by laser cladding with Fe–Ti–V–Cr–C–CeO 2 alloy powder. The microstructure, phases and …
