Abstract
This research focused on friction-based techniques for modifying the wear properties of a titanium alloy, particularly under seawater conditions. The surface modification processes employed were powder intrusion and friction stirring. Three different kinds of powder materials were used for the surface modification: Cr2N,TiN and Al2O3. Wear tests were conducted on the specimens under both dry and artificial seawater conditions. The results revealed that the Cr2N modified material presents excellent wear resistance under dry conditions, whereas modification using Al2O3 and Zn-coated Cr2N led to excellent wear properties under artificial seawater conditions.
