.../approach Pack boriding technique was used to form a hard boron diffusion layer on titanium substrate. A powder mixture of amorphous boron and anhydrous borax was used as a solid-state boriding media, and then the boriding was carried out under inert atmosphere. Findings A thick dual boride layer...

... in drilling Ti6Al4V is smaller than that in drilling AISI 1045 due to its lower cutting deformation. The effects of feed rate on the drilling forces distribution are not serious. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited 2013 Water Vapour pressure Lubrication Cooling systems Titanium Alloys Green...

...Bekir Sami Yilbas; Cihan Karataş; Bahadır Ersu; Sevil Gurgan Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the morphological and metallurgical changes of laser gas‐assisted nitriding of titanium implants. Design/methodology/approach Laser gas‐assisted nitriding of titanium implant...

... experiments were carrying out on it. Finally, CPMJ was applied to the grinding of titanium alloy to verify its cooling effects. Findings With high penetrative power and water mist of −5°C, CPMJ can greatly improve heat transfer efficiency in the grinding zone. Experimental results, including heat transfer...

... Great progress towards titanium designer surfaces has been made recently through the invention of the cost-effective thermal oxidation (TO) technique and the novel duplex system combining DLC coating with BDOX deep case hardening. Although it was observed in the early 1950s that the surface...

...Hanshan Dong; Tom Bell Despite their outstanding combination of properties, titanium and its alloys are very susceptible to severe adhesive wear in rubbing with almost all the engineering surfaces and can exhibit poor corrosion resistance in some aggressive environments. Surface engineering...
