Laser cladding of the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 pre‐placed alloy powder on the Ti–6Al–4 V alloy in nitrogen protective atmosphere can form the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN composite coating, which can dramatically improve the wear resistance of the Ti–6Al–4 V alloy surface. In this study, the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings on the Ti–6Al–4 V alloy have been researched by means of X‐ray diffraction, SEM and energy dispersive spectrometry. It was found that there is a metallurgical combination between the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN composite coating and the substrate. The microhardness of the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings were 3 ~ 4 times higher than that of the Ti–6Al–4 V alloy because of the actions of the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN hard phases and the grain refinement strengthening. Moreover, the wear mass losses of the Ti 3 Al + TiB 2 /TiN composite coatings were much lower than that of the substrate. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
