Abstract
A novel method combining ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) with electrospark deposition was developed to prepare coatings on Ti-6Al-4V substrates. The microstructure, phase composition, residual stress, microhardness, and wear performance of the coating were studied, and new amorphous and nanocrystalline phases (titanium carbide nitride and iron titanium oxide) were found. In addition, the residual stress in the coating and in the substrate near the coating is compressive stress. The maximum compressive residual stress is about -717. MPa, and its depth is about 470. μm. Because of contributions from multiple factors, the wear volume loss of the sample subjected to combined UIT and electrospark processing was reduced by four orders of magnitude compared with that of the base material.
