In this study,Fe-Ti-V-B-C alloy coatings reinforced by ceramic particles are produced by laser cladding on the Q235 steel,the influence of ferroboron on the microstructure and property of the coatings is investigated by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD),optical microscope(OM),scanning electron microscope (SEM),micro-hardness tester and wear tester. Results show that the coatings are free from slag inclusion,exhibit high formability and good metallurgical bond with the substrate. The boron addition not only refines ceramic particles,but also changes the microstructure of the matrix of coatings from acicular ferrite to pearlite or high carbon martensite. The micro-hardness of the coatings increases while ferroboron content increases,however,when the ferroboron content is beyond mass fraction of 25%,the crack extending along longitudinal direction of the coating is found. Through the test of wear resistance,the weight loss of the coating,which contents mass fraction of 20% ferroboron,is just one tenth of that of the substrate.
