Abstract Selective Laser Melting (SLM), which is a kind of laser powder bed fusion additive
manufacturing technology, is commonly used in the manufacturing of AISI 316L stainless …

Rock breaking has always been a challenging problem that must be solved in projects such
as excavating mountains, drilling wells, and constructing railways. Among the rock-breaking …

Titanium (Ti) is a promising biomedical material due to its superior corrosion resistance, low
elastic modulus and favorable biocompatibility. Nevertheless, Ti faces a dilemma because of …

The wear performances of titanium oxide films, produced by anodic oxidation, in vacuum
conditions were investigated. Anodic oxidation treatments were carried out at− 3 and 40° C …

Thermal oxidation treatment was carried out on novel TiZrNbTaMo biomedical Medium-
entropy alloy (bio-MEAs) at 400∼ 600° C for 2 h in air. The extracted results demonstrated …

The aim of the present work is to identify an environmentally clean coating process that will
present lower influence in the Ti–6Al–4V fatigue strength. Axial fatigue tests of Ti–6Al–4V …

The effects of plasma nitriding (PN) temperature and time on the structural and tribological
characterisation of Ti 6Al 4V alloy were investigated. PN processes under gas mixture of …

The nitriding behavior of AISI M2 steel was studied on samples previously submitted to two
different heat treatments in order to investigate the effects of the initial microstructure on the …

Abstract The Ti-35Nb-7Zr-5Ta (TNZT) alloy has received much research attention among the
biomedical titanium alloys for its low Young's modulus and outstanding biocompatibility. This …

In the present work, tribological performances of duplex coatings (Ti/TiN PVD and WC-Co
HVOF) on Ti6Al4V substrates were investigated by analytical modelling and experimental …
