Effect of Heat Treatment Austenitic Stainless Steel on Microstructure and Property of Laser Cladding Ni-Based Composite Coatings
Ni60CuMoW+1.00%Ti alloy powder laser cladding composite coatings was fabricated on 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel surface with normalizing treatment by 6 kW transverse-flow CO2 laser apparatus. The clad coatings was examined and tested for chemical composition, microstructure feature, phase structure, microhardness, corrosion behavior and metallography by X-ray diffraction (XRD), microhardness test, electrochemistry workstation and optical microscopy (OM), respectively. The results show that some new phases are formed in the cladding layer which consist of γ-(Fe, Ni) solid solution, intermetallic compound NiCu, CrNiFeC, CuNiTi2, Mo9Ti and harden phase Ni2Si, Fe3Ni3B, WC, TiC. OM observation displays that the microstructure of cladding layer is homogeneous, compactness and forming a good metallurgical bonding interface. Micro-hardness measurement exhibits that the highest hardness lies in 0.5~1.0 mm range from the surface and reaches 649 HV. Electrochemical corrosion test in 5.0% NaCl saturated solution indicates that the self-corrosion potential (Ecorr) of composite coating sample increases by 192.8 mV and the corrosion current density (Icorr) decreases by 26.8%. Compared with the substrate and the composite coating, the corrosion resistance of stainless steel with normalizing samples improved significantly.
