Abstract
In this study, a laser remelting process was applied to the FeCrCoNiTiAl0.6 high entropy alloy coating in order to improve the density and the surface quality of the coating. The coating was fabricated by high-velocity-oxygen-fuel (HVOF) technology. The microstructure and phase composition of the coating were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and confocal scanning laser microscope (CSLM). Moreover, the wear behavior of the coating was evaluated by use of a ball-on-disc test. The coating was denser after laser remelting treatment by eliminating the previous lamellar structure. The microstructure of the laser-remelted coating exhibits two body-centered cubic (BCC) phases, which is different from the HVOF coating. In addition, aluminum oxide formed during laser remelting. Different from the wear mechanism of the HVOF coating, which comprised abrasion and fatigue, the major wear of the laser remelted coating was abrasion.This publication has 30 references indexed in Scilit:
