Microstructure and properties of intermetallic composite coatings fabricated by selective laser melting of Ti–SiC powder mixtures

Effect of high dilution on the in situ synthesis of Ni–Zr/Zr–Si(B, C) reinforced composite coating on zirconium alloy substrate by laser cladding

“…where the P is the laser power, the v is the laser scanning speed, the d is the laser spot size and the t is the thickness of powder layer [30,31]. In order to guarantee enough high temperature and long time for the reaction of alloying elements with molten zirconium, the energy input in HAC was adjusted to higher than that in LAC.…”

Processing of Al–12Si–TNM composites by selective laser melting and evaluation of compressive and wear properties

“…There are also reports, where ceramic TiC and graphite are added to Ti-based matrices for producing composites using SLM. [31][32][33] The TiC reinforced composites were evaluated for both mechanical and tribological properties. [31][32][33] They also revealed a reaction between the reinforcement and the matrix during the SLM process.…”

In-situ synthesized Ni–Zr intermetallic/ceramic reinforced composite coatings on zirconium substrate by high power diode laser

“…where the P is the laser power, the v is the laser scanning speed, the d is the laser spot diameter and the h is the thickness of powder layer [27,28]. In order to eliminate the influence of different energy inputs on the quality of coatings, all groups in this study were carried out with the same processing parameters, the power of 3.8kW, a scanning speed of 3mm/s and a beam spot diameter of 5mm.…”
