Abstract
A Fe-based amorphous composite coating doped by molybdenum was fabricated by the pulse laser cladding technology. The substrate was a low carbon steel plate. The nominal composition of the powder in the range from 100 to 200 meshes was (wt.%) Cr:14.95, Mo:25.7, B:1.24, C:3.45, Y:3.40, Fe:51.29, which was selected for the laser cladding process. The microstructure, phase composition, hardness and corrosion resistance of the coatings were characterized by means of SEM, EDS, XRD , DSC and potentiodynamic polarization test. The results show that the coating which was composed of amorphous and nanocrystal phases had the dense structure and metallurgical bonding with the substrate, meanwhile with low porosity and cracks. The addition of molybdenum played an important role in improving the corrosion resistance of the coatings. With the increasing content of molybdenum, the hardness had no significant change, while the corrosion resistance of the coatings significantly increased. From the results of polarization curves, the corrosion current density of the coating added 0 wt.% Mo is higher than that of the coatings added 2 wt.% Mo and 10 wt.% Mo. The molybdenum has a superior effect on the corrosion resistance in Fe-based amorphous composite coating.
