Abstract: Laser-assisted cold spray (LCS) is a new coating and fabrication process which combines some advantages of CS: solid-state deposition, retain their initial composition and high build rate with the ability to deposit materials which are either difficult or impossible to deposit using cold spray alone. Stellite 6 powder is deposited on medium carbon steels by LCS using N2 as carrier gas pressure. The topography, cross section thickness, structure of the coatings is examined by SEM, optical microscopy, EDX. The results show that thickness and fluctuation of coating are improved with increased deposition site temperature. Porosity of coating is affected by N2 and deposition site temperature. In this paper, it presents optimal coating using N2 at a pressure of 3 MPa and temperature of 450 ℃ and deposition site temperature of 1 100 ℃.

Key words: surface and interface of materials, medium carbon steel, laser- assisted cold spray, Stellite 6, deposited coating
