Abstract

Results obtained with CO2 lasers on the effect of processing parameters were used to determine the operating regimes for laser sealing and laser cladding of ceramics with particular reference to zirconias. The specific energy required for laser cladding is higher by at least two orders of magnitude than that required for laser sealing of plasma-sprayed ceramics at a given power density.
