Abstract
In order to improve the wear resistance of 62Cu-38Zn brass, bionic coupling units were fabricated by laser cladding using Ni-based, Fe-based and Co-based self-fluxing alloy powders. The microstructures, chemical composition and mechanical properties of the units were studied in this paper. Wear resistance of samples was examined by dry sliding wear. Good metallurgical bonding between the unit and substrate was obtained, and fine dendritic microstructure was resulted in the unit zone, which proved marked availability of laser cladding on brass. Laser cladding treatments with different self-fluxing alloy powders were beneficial to reinforcing the surface of brass and then improved its wear resistance with various results. The Ni-based alloy powders led to the best wear resistance amongst the all samples.
