Abstract

AISI 431 bead-on-plates were deposited on AISI 1010 by laser cladding, since it is a well-known corrosion-resistant material. The effects of laser power, scanning speed, powder feed rate and focal distance on the coatings’ geometry and dilution ratios, as well as microstructure evolution, iron dilution and microhardness of the beads were evaluated by optical and electron scanning microscopes, the last one coupled with x-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy, and microhardness test. The results showed that the clad height is mainly influenced by the scanning speed, while for the width, laser power, scanning speed and focal distance were crucial. Changing laser power has a more marked effect on the dilution than on the aspect ratio, while changing scanning speeds and focal distance shows a marked effect on both dilution and aspect ratio. The microstructure of coating zone is mainly composed by lath martensite. Furthermore, the average hardness by microindentation of the AISI 431 stainless steel cladding coating was about 5 times higher than that of the substrate.
