Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb coatings were fabricated on the surface of low carbon steel using high power diode laser cladding of [(Fe0.5Co0.5)(0.75)B0.2Si0.05](95.7)Nb-4.3 amorphous powders at three different scanning speeds of 6, 17 and 50 m/s. At each scanning speed, laser power was optimized to obtain low dilution ratio. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometer and electron probe micro analysis were carried out to characterize the microstructure and chemical composition of the cladded coatings. Differential scanning calorimetry was also carried out to investigate the fraction of the amorphous phase. The results showed that dilution ratio and scanning speed were the two main factors for fabricating Fe-Co-B-Si-Nb amorphous coating by high power diode laser cladding. Low dilution ratio was crucial for the formation of amorphous phase. When the dilution ratio was low, the fraction of amorphous phase in the cladded coatings increased upon increasing the scanning speed. (C) 2012 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.

Mechanism and optimization of activating fluxes for process stability and weldability of hybrid laser-arc welded HSLA steel

Shiwei Zhang, Yadong Wang, Zhihui Xiong, Minhao Zhu, Zhijie Zhang, Zhuguo Li

Summary: The study investigated the effects of activating fluxes on weld bead morphology, arc behavior, electrical signals, and temperature field. Results showed that the addition of SiO2, TiO2, ZnO, and Fe2O3 improved weld formation and penetration depth, while also reducing welding voltage and increasing welding current. However, CaO and B2O3 dramatically deteriorated process stability.

Microstructure characteristics for quench sensitivity of in-situ TiB2/7050Al composite

Hongyu Xiao, Jiwei Geng, Yugang Li, Hongping Li, Dong Chen, Mingliang Wang, Zhuguo Li, Haowei Wang

Summary: In this study, the quench sensitivity of TiB2/7050Al composite was investigated using Jominy end quench test. It was found that the hardness decreased significantly with increasing distance from the quenching end, as more eta phases precipitated and coarsened on grain boundaries. The composite was observed to be more quench sensitive than its alloy counterpart, attributed to four microstructure characteristics inherited from the aluminum matrix and originating from the TiB2 addition.

Bolun Han, Chengcheng Zhang, Kai Feng, Zhuguo Li, Xiancheng Zhang, Yao Shen, Xiaodong Wang, Hiroyuki Kokawa, Ruifeng Li, Zhiyuan Wang, Paul K. Chu

Summary: The study fabricated a near full-dense hierarchical CrCoNi medium entropy alloy (MEA) using selective laser melting (SLM), achieving superior yield strength at 77K. The high strength of the material stems from a hierarchical microstructure composed of high-density dislocations and low-angle grain boundaries (LAGB). The results suggest that SLM is a viable technique for fabricating dense hierarchical CrCoNi MEA and offer a design strategy to further improve mechanical properties.
