Abstract: The effects of heat treatment temperature on the hardness, wear resistance and structure of a coating material consisting of Ni-0.45wt% RE4.8wt% B-6.2wt% Al2O3 have been discussed. The results showed that the hachess and wear resistance of the composite material reach the optimal values when heating temperature rises to 350℃ and 500℃ respectivelg. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy indicate that the composite material is amorphous in the as-coating state. The crystallized temperature of Ni-B alloy is increased when RE and Al2O3 particles are inserted. The hardness and wear resistance of the composite are raised obviously with addition of RE and Al2O3 particles.
