Abstract TC4 alloy belongs to (α+β) dual-phase alloy, it is widely used in the field of aerospace because of its advantages such as small density, high specific strength, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, non-magnetic and good compatibility. However, the low hardness and poor wear resistance of TC4 alloy limit its application and promotion to a large extent. So it is of great significance to modify the surface of TC4 alloy. Laser cladding technology is a new surface modification technology and it has been widely used in the field of surface modification of TC4 alloy due to its advantages in processable materials, high efficiency, good compatibility between cladding layer and substrate, material saving, environmental protection and pollution-free. Surface modification of TC4 titanium alloy by laser cladding technology began in 1980s. After nearly 40 years of research and exploration, researchers found that the factors affecting the quality and properties of the cladding layer were laser cladding materials, laser processing parameters and processing conditions.After considering the influence of various factors on the cladding layer, it is found that the laser cladding material plays a decisive role in the quality and performance of the cladding layer. According to the composition of materials, cladding materials can be classified into metal and metal alloy powder, ceramic powder, nano-ceramic powder, metal-ceramic composite powder and other powders. Among them, metals and their alloys have very high hardness, but they are not resistant to high temperature, so they are suitable for using at temperatures of 400 —900 ℃. Ceramic materials have high hardness and high melting point. They can be used as reinforcing phase in laser cladding process, but their toughness is low and cracks are easy to occur. Nano-ceramic materials can effectively alleviate the stress concentration at the interface and reduce the cracks and pore defects in the cladding layer. Cermet composites can combine the strength and toughness of metals with the wear resistance and high temperature resistance of ceramics by laser cladding technology, which is a research hotspot in the field of laser cladding at present. Other cladding materials, such as rare earth and its oxide powder, solid lubricant powder and coated powder have specific properties, and the properties of cladding layer can be significantly improved by adding a small amount of such powder into the cladding powder. This paper summarizes the research results of improving the surface properties of TC4 alloy by changing the composition of cladding powder.The classification of cladding powders is introduced.The advantages, disadvantages and application occasions of various powders are introduced. It is pointed out that the main problem of surface modification of TC4 alloy is the cracking of cladding layer. The causes of cracking are analyzed and the corresponding solutions are put forward.
