Processing titanium (Ti)-based materials in high-concentration nitrogen gas (N 2)
atmosphere is credited with reducing ductility/plasticity arising from the excessive formation …

This work focuses on the tribological behaviour of PVD coated Ti-6Al-4V. Commercially
available single layer CrN, CrN/NbN superlattice and multilayer WC/C coatings were taken …

A high power direct diode laser, emitting in the range of near infrared radiation at
wavelength 808–940 nm, was applied to produce a titanium matrix composite on a surface …

The directed energy deposition (DED) process can directly build full-density, high-
performance, complex metal parts by melting metal powder with laser scanning. Functionally …

Owing to poor tribological properties, titanium (Ti) alloys are usually surface-treated to
enhance their surface properties. Laser surface nitriding, among others, is a common …

In this paper, the CrN and CrNiN coatings were deposited on the non-nitrided and nitrided
Ti6Al4V alloys with the method of closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputter ion plating …

In this study, the nitrided layer was prepared on Ti6Al4V alloy by laser gas nitriding using the
scanning galvanometer (G-LGN). Its typical features were investigated in comparison to that …

Abstract The Ti-35Nb-7Zr-5Ta (TNZT) alloy has received much research attention among the
biomedical titanium alloys for its low Young's modulus and outstanding biocompatibility. This …

A nitrogen plasma can be sustained in air using a high-power CO 2 laser. If nitriding of a Ti
substrate is performed in the presence of such laser-sustained plasma (LSP) in open …

The friction-stir processing (FSP) method was employed to the surface modification of Ti–6Al–
4V alloy applying different processing parameters. The defect-free friction-stir processed …
