Effect of plasma processes of coating formation on the structure and mechanical properties of titanium

Resumo

The changes in the structure and mechanical properties of VT1-0 titanium alloy are investigated after deposition of coating by means of plasma spraying and micro-arc oxidation. The behavior of the structure and properties is found to be dependent on the deposition method. The differences observed are explained by the thermal effect of the micro-arc oxidation process on the substrate.
