T1 PHASE COMPOSITION MODIFICATION OF THE Cr/Ti SYSTEM BY COMPRESSION PLASMA FLOWS AND HIGH-CURRENT ELECTRON BEAMS JF High Temperature Material Processes: An International Quarterly of High-Technology Plasma Processes JO HTM YR 2013 FD 2015-07-02 VO 17 IS 2-3 SP 101 OP 115 K1 titanium K1 compression plasma flows K1 low-energy high-current electron beams K1 phase composition K1 titanium nitride K1 alloying K1 structure K1 microhardness AB The main laws governing the titanium surface layer alloying with chromium atoms by compression plasma flows (CPF) and the influence of low-energy high-current electron beams (HCEB) are investigated. Titanium samples with a previously deposited chromium coating were subjected to the CPF impact and HCEB. In both cases, the presence of chromium atoms promoted the stabilization of the high-temperature cubic β-Ti phase. In the case of CPF treatment, the subsurface layer contains β-Ti(Cr) solid solution, martensite phase α'-Ti, and orthorhombic martensite phase α"-Ti. The treatments of titanium result in the modification of the mechanical properties of the surface layer. In particular, the microhardness increases up to 6.4 GPa after exposure to CPF.
