most of the materials used in the industry of aero-engine components generally consist of titaniumalloys. advanced materials, because of their excellent combination of high specific strength, lightweight and general corrosion resistance. in fact, chemical wear resistance of aero-engine alloyprovides a serious challenge for cutting tool material during the machining process. the reductionin cutt...

In this work, surface Ti-Cu-Al-V alloy was synthesized by compression plasma flows impact on Ti-6Al-4V titanium preliminarily coated copper. The treatment of Cu/Ti-6Al-4V samples carried out three pulses generated in the nitrogen atmosphere (energy density absorbed varied range 26-43 J/cm2 per pulse). phase and elemental composition, structure, microhardness friction coefficient formed were inv...

Due to recent concern about allergic and toxic effects of Ni ions released from TiNi alloy into human body, much attention has been focused on the development of new Ni-free, metastable beta-type biomedical titanium alloys with a reversible phase transformation between the beta phase and the alpha'' martensite. This study investigates the effect of the stress-induced alpha'' martensite on the m...

Titanium alloys have found increased applications in various industrial sectors. One of the critical issues in quality control is the weld penetration during welding. In the present paper, tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding of Ti-6Al-4V alloy with and without an activating flux was conducted. The effect of the activating flux on Ti alloy welding was investigated. A data acquisition system was use...

The lap shear strength of chromic acid anodized, primed, Ti-6Al-4V alloy bonded with a high performance FM-5 polyimide adhesive has been investigated as a function of thermal treatment for selected times at various temperatures in air. The research findings indicate that the lap shear strength decreases with the increase in duration of the thermal treatment at constant temperature and with the ...

Present work aims at multi-mechanical surface treatment of Ti-6Al-4V based-miniplate implant manufactured by electrical discharge machining (EDM) for biomedical use. Mechanical surface treatment consists of consequent use of ultrasonic cleaning, rotary tumbler polishing, and brushing. Surface layers are analyzed employing scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Al...

A low magnetic Zr-1Mo alloy was fabricated by a powder bed fusion (PBF) process using a fiber laser. The microstructure, surface morphology, and pore distribution of the as-built Zr-1Mo alloy were observed. Its magnetic susceptibility and Vickers hardness were evaluated by magnetic susceptibility balance and a microindentation tester, respectively. The as-built Zr-1Mo alloy mainly consisted of ...
