Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Abstract

Besides unalloyed titanium, titanium alloys are coming into increasing use in technology today. The application of titanium alloys, however, has been limited by the low resistance to various types of wear as well as a tendency to adhere and become scratched during work in subassemblies involving friction. It is thus of interest to develop a method of surface hardening of these materials to improve their wear resistance. The article reports the results of studies on the structure of diffusion layers in a and α + β titanium alloys after ion-beam nitriding.
