Laser Coating Of Zirconium And ZrO2 Composites On Ti6Al4V For Biomedical Applications

Coating is a technology for improving the surface properties of components. Laser coating produces uniform composition with thickened layers that display a good metallurgical bond to the base material. These coatings are dense and crack-free, and have non-porous microstructures. The advantages of th...
