Abstract

In order to improve the wear resistance and service life of die steel, Ni-based alloy coatings with different amount of WC–TiC ceramic particles were fabricated on the substrate of Cr12MoV die steel by laser. Scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to analyze the microstructures and phases of four coatings. The results show that four coatings have a good metallurgical bonding with the substrate and no crack and porosity on the surface. The reinforced phases were mainly γ~(Fe, Ni), Cr23C6, WC and Cr2Ti. The microstructure was mainly columnar dendrite, cellular dendrite and equiaxed crystal. When the mass fraction of WC particles was 40%, equiaxed crystal appeared in the coating. The WC and TiC particles were evenly distributed among γ~(Fe, Ni) and Cr23C6 phases. With the increase of WC mass fraction, the values of microhardness increased significantly, which were 680.5, 704.3, 752.6 and 806.4 HV0.5, respectively. The coating of 40% WC particles had the maximum microhardness (806.4 HV0.5). The wear volumes of four coatings were 0.47, 0.44, 0.26 and 0.40 mm3, respectively. With the increase of WC content, the wear resistance increased firstly and then decreased. When the mass fraction of WC particles was 30%, the coating had the minimum wear volume (0.26 mm3) and obtained the best wear resistance. It can be seen that the proper amount of WC and TiC ceramic particles enhanced the wear resistance of laser cladding coating.
