Popis: An integrated low temperature nitriding process for TC4 (Ti6Al4V) has been developed and the effect on wear resistance has been investigated. Through the process of solid solution strengthening—cold deformation—nitriding at 400 °C, the TC4 alloy is nitrided on surface and dispersion strengthened in bulk at the same time. The white nitriding layer is formed after some time of nitriding. The nitriding speed increases with the deformation degree. The construction was investigated by XRD and the nitride is Ti3N2-X . The wear test was carried out and results exhibit that the nitrided samples have better wear resistance.
