Triode plasma nitriding was used in conjunction with electron-beam plasma-assisted physical vapour deposition of TiN and CrAlN to enhance the wear resistance of Ti–6Al–4V titanium alloy. Linear reciprocating-sliding ball-on-plate wear tests were performed to assess the tribological performance of the treated alloy. Wear volumes were correlated to changes in coefficient of friction, which is often indicative of breakdown of the surface treatment. Debris generated during wear testing was characterised ...

Sequential triode plasma oxidation and nitriding have been used to provide enhanced load support for physical vapour deposited (PVD) hard coatings. The diffusion process has been designed to maximise process efficiency and coating adhesion, thereby significantly improving the tribological properties of the Ti–6Al–4V alloy — particularly at high contact pressures. This has been demonstrated using unlubricated linear reciprocating-sliding ball-on-plate wear tests and micro-scratch adhesion testing. Also, ...

In this paper dynamic ball-on-plate impact wear testing is utilised to evaluate the intrinsic fatigue strength of the surface of triode plasma diffusion treated, single-layered TiN-, CrAlN-, and WC/C-coated and duplex diffusion treated/PVD-coated Ti–6Al–4V. The test is used to assess the resistance of surfaces to dynamic, high-cycle loading caused by the repeated impact of a cemented carbide ball. The subsequent observation and comparison of the wear craters produced (and their measured volumes) ...

The use of high thermal conductivity copper alloys in plastic injection moulds provides the benefit of rapid moulding cycles through effective heat transfer. However, copper alloys are relatively soft and wear rapidly so manufacturers are now developing copper alloys with increased hardness and wear resistance. Their wear resistance can be further improved by the deposition of hard coatings such as electroplated chromium, electroless nickel and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) coatings. In this paper, ...

In this paper, the influence of different plasma treatments on wear regime transitions during sliding wear tests carried out on AISI 316L steel was investigated. Selected plasma treatments included plasma nitriding, plasma carburizing and a sequential process involving plasma carburizing followed by plasma nitriding. During sliding wear tests, sharp transitions in frictional force were detected after the initial running-in period. These transitions in frictional force, which were measured as a function ...

Shot peening and plasma processes are widely used to improve surface properties of several alloys. In this work, triode plasma nitriding (TPN) was applied to Ti-stabilized interstitial free (IF) steels in an attempt to increase their hardness without compromising their excellent conformability. Shot peening was also trialed before triode plasma nitriding in an attempt to enhance nitriding kinetics and achieve deeper case depths. Triode plasma nitriding was performed at 450 °C, 475 °C and 500 °C for 4 ...

Abstract Titanium alloys have been widely used in automotive, biomedical and aerospace industries due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, outstanding corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Although α–β alloys such as Ti–6Al–4V (workhorse of aerospace industry) and Ti–6Al–7Nb (much used for surgical implants) exhibit a good combination of mechanical properties, their tribological properties are still limited as they tend to seize and gall when in contact with other surfaces. In this paper, ...

Powder Immersion Reaction Assisted Coating (PIRAC) is a relatively simple nitrogen diffusion based process which has been proposed as a technique capable of considerable improvements in the tribological performance of ceramics and metals alike; however, the necessary exposure of the substrate material to high temperatures for several hours may have an adverse effect on the bulk properties of materials such as titanium alloys. The effect of PIRAC treatments on the bulk metallography and mechanical ...

The corrosion resistance of triode plasma-nitrided and oxynitrided Ti–6Al–4V was investigated in a hydrochloric acid solution using potentiodynamic polarisation, cyclic voltammetry, and immersion testing at OCP. The untreated and the PVD TiN-coated alloy were used as benchmarks. When compared to the untreated alloy and a PVD-TiN coating, the diffusion treated alloys proved to be more durable due to the presence of a Ti2N compound layer. The corrosion barrier properties of the nitrided alloy depend ...

Novel duplex titanium nitride-based coatings were produced on Ti6Al4V alloy by sequential PIRAC (powder immersion reaction assisted coating) nitriding and physical vapor deposition of multilayer TiN/Ti films. Extra load support provided by PIRAC nitrogen-hardened substrate resulted in superior coating adhesion and load-bearing capacity as demonstrated by 3-point bending, scratch test and Vickers indentation. The proposed duplex coating approach is suitable for applying hard, thick TiN layers with ...

Austenitic stainless steels exhibit excellent corrosion resistance but relatively poor wear resistance. Previous investigations have demonstrated that surface treatments consisting of plasma carburizing and plasma nitriding were able to successfully increase the wear resistance of austenitic stainless steels. In this work, the effect of a prior shot peening (SP) process on wear and corrosion resistance of sequentially plasma carburized and plasma nitrided AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel was ...
