Abstract
This paper shows that the laser cladding and alloying of a Ni-base sup eralloy on a substrate of plain carbon steel can be successfully carri ed out by irradiating a bilayer sample formed by metallic sheets mecha nically clamped together. Under laser irradiation, both the overlayer and the subs:rate are locally melted. Controlled dilution of the alloy elements of the superalloy in the melted pool allows a variety of sur face chemical compositions and microstructures to be obtained.
