Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of the TiN coating and the TiN/AlN superlattice coating on the fatigue performance of titanium alloys. The effect of the coating on the fatigue property of the titanium alloy is studied through the coating-substrate interaction. The results show that the TiN/AlN superlattice coating with high hardness and fracture toughness inhibits strain localization on the surface, changes the location of fatigue crack initiation and improves the fatigue strength at 107 cycles by 23.7%. Dislocation redistribution and “secondary slip” are found in the titanium alloy to eliminate stress concentration.
