Abstract

In this study, tungsten carbide (WC) ceramic particles were introduced into the molten pool of gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) to successfully prepare a composite coating without solidification cracking and with lower dilution. The formation mechanism and properties of the bonding interface are deeply analyzed. Results demonstrate that metallurgical bonding was achieved. The dissolution behavior of WC particles and the diffusion of W element into the heat-affected zone promoted the formation of a special β(Ti, W) diffusion layer below the fusion line. (Nb, Ti)C was mainly found distributed close to the diffusion layer. Nanoindentation test results show remarkable inhomogeneity in the interface area. The fracture surface of the broken coating revealed that the titanium matrix exhibited quasi-cleavage fracture, while the particles displayed brittle fractures. The fracture surface of coatings that experienced decohesive rupture in the shear test underwent plastic deformation in the shear direction.
