Abstract
The paper presents the research results of corrosion and mechanical properties of the AISI 316L stainless steel after the surface treatment. This treatment includes the formation of the titanium-based surface alloy provided by the low-energy high-current electron beam. The obtained surface alloy used as an underlayer, is then coated with the a-C:H:SiOx film using the PACVD method. It is shown that such a combined treatment of the steel surface improves its corrosion resistance, i. e., reduces the current density from 110-7 to 910-10 A/cm2 and corrosion rate from 1.110-3 to 9.310-6 mm/year. The resulted modified steel surface possesses high mechanical and tribological properties
