Al,3,Ti reinforced Al-based composite coating was prepared by laser cladding on the surface of AZ91D magnesium alloy with Al,Ti and Ni/C mixed powder as raw materials,and compared with substrate and Al coating. Morphology and phase composition of the coatings were analyzed with scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer. Hardness and corrosion resistance of the coatings were measured with microhardness tester and electrochemical workstation. The results show that the Al coating consists of Al,3,Mg,2, and Al,12,Mg,17, phases and the reinforcing phase Al,3,Ti is synthesized in situ in the coating with 10%(Ti+Ni/C). Compared with the substrate,the hardness and corrosion resistance of the coatings are significantly improved. Compared with Al coating,the average hardness of the coating with 10%(Ti+Ni/C)increased by 41%,the self-corrosion potential increased by 167 mV,the self-corrosion current density decreased slightly,and the corrosion resistance is further improved. The EIS test results showed that the Rc and Rct values of the coating with 10%(Ti +Ni/C) are higher than that of Al coating and substrate,confirming that the coating with 10%(Ti +Ni/C) has the best corrosion resistance.
