Abstract

The paper presents the experimental results on the surface quenching by CO2 continuous wave laser action of solid phase steel with 1%C obtained, using different absorptive (ZnO, TiO2, ZrO2, graphite) powder coatings. The absorptivity of these coatings was determined by resolving the thermal conductivity equation for the irradiation with an energy punctual source on the massive body. Among the four investigated powders, for thermal treatment with laser of tools carbon steel it is recommend the powder of zinc oxide as coating with most efficient absorption capacity.
