Pulsed plasma treatment of Ti–Al coatings produced by mechanical alloying method

Pulsed plasma deposition of Fe-C-Cr-W coating on high-Cr-cast iron: Effect of layered morphology and heat treatment on the microstructure and hardness

“…They can perform synchronous surface modification, strengthening and protective coating deposition on a variety of metallic materials [1][2][3]. Among these methods, the pulsed plasma techniques (PPTs) stand out due to the expanded capabilities of surface property improving arising from additional beneficial factors, such as shock-wave-induced strengthening and radiation stimulated diffusion [4][5][6][7]. PPTs may employ various devices based on different working principles of plasma flux generation [6,7].…”

Structure and high temperature oxidation of mechanical alloyed Fe-Al coating

“…In recent years, the mechanical alloying technique has been used to deposit multi-component structures, such as Ti-Al coatings [13], Al coating [14], TiN coating [15] and Cr coating [16] on different substrates. Zhan et al [17] show the formation FeAl layer during the deposition of Al coating on low carbon steel.…”

Effect of process parameters on the formation of Ti–Al coatings fabricated by mechanical milling

“…In our previous papers [1][2][3], we introduced the concept of mechanical alloying (MA), also known as the mechanical milling method; this method can be used for the fabrication of Ti-Al coatings. Fig.…”

“…This method is especially attractive for the fabrication of composite coatings [2,3]. Recent research has indicated that high ductility can be more easily achieved in multiphase structures and that grain boundary sliding can be a primary mechanism for superplasticity.…”
