Abstract

The effect of high-dose aluminum implantation on the structural-phase state of the surface layer of titanium alloy VT6 with a fine structure (average grain size 2.3 μm) on the mechanical and corrosion properties has been investigated. It is shown that, as a result of ion irradiation, polyphase implanted layers based on α-titanium grains are formed, containing an intermetallic Ti3Al phase along the grain boundaries of α-titanium. The modified surface layers are characterized by improved mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The noted effect is enhanced by the use of preliminary helium implantation with a dose of 1.3 × 1017ion / cm2.
