A possibility of increasing wear resistance of Ti6Al4V alloy after cathodic plasma electrolytic nitriding in a solution of ammonium chloride and ammonia is shown. The competing effect of the surface erosion by the actions of discharges and high-temperature oxidation on the morphology and roughness of the surface was revealed. The complex effect of the surface roughness and surface layer hardness on the wear resistance of the titanium alloy was determined. It was found that the greatest decrease in the weight wear by a factor of 2.7 was observed for the sample with the maximum microhardness of the surface layer, reaching 820 HV, and the smallest surface roughness. It was shown that the friction coefficient decreased in proportion to the treatment time when the surface layer had low hardness, favoring the sliding of the counter-body.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
