Surface Layer Properties of Sintered Ferritic Stainless Steel Remelted and Alloyed with FeNi and Ni by HPDL Laser

Article Preview

Abstract:

Laser surface remelting and alloying of sintered stainless steel type 410L with FeNi and Ni have been studied for improvement of corrosion resistance and hardness increase. The influences of high power diode laser (HPDL) processing conditions, laser power in range 0.7-2.1 kW on the microstructure and properties of alloyed surface layer have been evaluated. The FeNi alloyed layer shows microstructure composed of austenite and martensite formed, due to high cooling rate in laser remelting process, with average Ni content in range of 39 to 8% depending on laser processing conditions. The Ni alloyed layer was composed of austenitic microstructure with Ni content from 65% to 33%. The improvement in microhardness was achieved by laser surface alloying and remelting. Excellent corrosion properties were observed for such remelted and alloyed layers in salt spray test.
