The Influence of Boron Carbide on the Mechanical Properties and Bonding Strength of B4C/Nickel 63 Coatings of Brake Disc

Metal-based ceramic composite laser cladding offers substantial compensations in enhancing brake disc surface characteristics. Laser was utilized to combine B4C powder (10–40%) with Ni 63 make Boron Carbide (B4C)/Nickel coatings. For the subsequent experiments, specimens were ground and polished. Bonding strength, fracture toughness, residual stress examined content. The morphologies checked using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). It observed that bonding strength of various coatings might approach 175 MPa. Best when level between 15% 30%. porousness coating continuously raised as content increased. coating’s maximum permeability 5.6% after reached As grew, compression resistance decreased. within desirable limits, consistently strong. material bending increased materials reduced below 35%; at this level, highest. covered by optimal range strength. Good mechanical characteristics achieved 20% had smoothest strongest making it most stable. estimation total matrix deformation corresponding on coated discs, Ansys software create static structural model.
