W-particle-reinforced Al alloys were prepared on a 7075 aluminum alloy surface via laser melt injection to improve their wear resistance, and the microstructure, microhardness, and wear resistance of the W/Al layers were studied. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results confirmed that a W/Al laser melting layer of about 1.5 mm thickness contained W particles, and Al4W was formed on the surface of the Al alloys. Due to the reinforcement of the W particles and good bonding of the W and Al matrix, the melting layer showed excellent wear resistance compared to that of Al alloys.
