Tribo-mechanical and electrochemical properties of plasma nitriding titanium
Titanium nitrides have good tribo-mechanical and biomedical properties. They are employed to harden and protect cutting and sliding surfaces for industrial purpose and as a non-toxic outer-surface for bio-medical applications. In this study, pure titanium was nitrided using RF plasma technique. The microstructural, mechanical, tribological, electrochemical and biomedical properties of nitrided titanium were investigated. The X-ray diffraction demonstrates the formation ... Read more
