The phase component, microstructure, composition distribution and properties of the composite layer were investigated. The composite layer has graded microstructures and compositions, due to the fast melting followed by rapid solidification and cooling during laser cladding. The TiC powders are completely dissolved into the melted layer during melting and segregated as fine dendrites when solidified. The size of TiC dendrites decreases with increasing depth. Y2O3 fine particles distribute in the whole clad layer. The Y2O3 particle enhanced Ni/TiC composite layer has a quite uniform hardness along depth with a maximum value of HV1380, which is 4 times higher than the initial hardness. The wear resistance of the Ti alloy is significantly improved after laser cladding due to the high hardness of the composite coating.展开更多

The results showed that LDC30 has a suitable chemical compatibility with NiO and NiO-LDC30 has a good thermal expansion matching with LDC30 interlayer and LSGM(La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.2O3-δ) electrolyte, so NiO-LDC30/LDC30 was considered as a feasible and novel anode system. It was also shown that NiO content plays a key role on polarization performance and morphology of the anode. When the content of NiO was 60%(mass fraction), the polarization loss of anode was the lowest. Next we will optimize the porosity and sintering procedure to modify the microstructure and performance of the anode.展开更多
