摘要： In order to study the effect of TiC on the microstructure and properties of cladding coatings, TiC/TiAl composite coatings have been prepared by using a laser cladding technique on TiAl alloy, and the microstructure and properties of the resulting composite coatings have been investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), micro-hardness testing, X-ray stress measurements, friction and wear testing, and an electrochemical workstation. The results showed that when the particle size of TiC is up to micron, the growth of TiC is more developed, the dendrite growth direction is disordered, and the cladding quality is poor. When the particle size of TiC is nanoscale, the morphology of the reinforcement phase TiC is mainly granular and thin rods, which is uniform in the coating and the direction of growth is regular. When the concentration of TiC reaches 20%, the microstructure of the cladding layer grows well and is dense. The microhardness and wear resistance of the coatings prepared by adding nano TiC are better than those of the coatings prepared by micron TiC. When the content of nano TiC in the coatings increases from 10% to 20%, the microhardness and wear resistance of the coatings are obviously improved. The residual stress of the coating is positively related to the crack rate. The residual stress in the coating is tensile stress, and the crack type is the crystal crack in the hot crack. When the particle size of TiC is small and the concentration is high, the coating shows better corrosion resistance.
