Increase in wear resistance of titanium alloy parts (Review)

摘要

The paper gives the review of the methods to improve the wear resistance of titanium alloys, including chemico-thermal treatment, application of galvanic coatings, flame and plasma spraying, laser and electric-spark surface alloying, and brazing. Effectiveness of their application is assessed. It is shown that the most promising method is argon-arc cladding, requiring development of new filler materials.
