Abstract: Co-based alloy coating was cladded on T10 tool steel by the powder feeding and continuous CO2 laser. The results showed that compared to the unreinforced T10 tool steel substrate, the microhardness of the Co-based reinforced composite was significantly enhanced and the maximum value was existed in the middle of the cladding coating. The corrosion resistance of the cladding coating was also improved. After cryogenic treatment, there is no obvious change for the structure of the cladding coating while the phase is transformed, leading to an increase in the microhardness of the cladding coating.
