Abstract: To increase the strength and wear resistance of material surfaces, various combinations of B4C and 80TiFe powder were mixed into a Fe60 self-fluxing alloy powder; the composite coatings reinforced by TiB2–TiC were successfully prepared on Q235 steel surfaces by laser cladding. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to study the microstructure and chemical and phase composition. Microhardness and wear testers were used to investigate the mechanical properties. The results show that the interfaces of composite coatings and substrate materials are excellent for metallurgical bonding. The block-like TiB2 particles and flower-like TiC particles are uniformly distributed in the cladding coating. When the mass fraction of the mixed powder is 30%, the average microhardness of the coating is approximately 1100 HV0.2, which is 50% higher than that without the mixed powder, and demonstrates the best wear with a performance twice as better as that of the substrate.
