The surface morphology, the adhesion of the oxide layer to the substrate, and their effect on the tribological characteristics of rolled sheets from alloy Ti - 6% Al - 4% V are studied at different temperatures and durations of oxidation of the surface. The methods of the study are measuring of microhardness, x-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The composition of the oxide layer exhibiting good adhesion to titanium, low friction factor and high wear resistance is determined.

Abstract
The surface morphology, the adhesion of the oxide layer to the substrate, and their effect on the tribological characteristics of rolled sheets from alloy Ti - 6% Al - 4% V are studied at different temperatures and durations of oxidation of the surface. The methods of the study are measuring of microhardness, x-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The composition of the oxide layer exhibiting good adhesion to titanium, low friction factor and high wear resistance is determined.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
