Abstract WC-Co reinforced C276 alloy composite coatings are fabricated on Q235 steel by laser melting deposition. The microstructure, hardness, wear performance, and electrochemical corrosion behavior of composite coating are studied. The results show that WC-Co particles are mostly uniformly distributed in the coating and provide favorable conditions for heterogeneous nucleation. The microstructure of C276/WC-Co composite coatings is composed of γ-Ni solid solution dendrites and MoNi solid solution eutectics. The WC-Co particles can effectively improve the hardness and wear resistance of C276 alloy. The average hardness of the composite coating containing 10-wt% WC-Co (447 HV0.2) are 1.26 times higher than that of the C276 alloy (356 HV0.2). The wear rate of composite coating containing 10-wt% WC-Co (6.95 × 10 -3 mg/m) is just 3.5% of that of C276 coating (196.23× 10 -3 mg/m). However, comparing with Hastelloy C276,the corrosion resistance of C276/WC-Co composite coating decreases.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
