Friction and wear resistant coating for titanium and its alloys

摘要

For titanium and titanium alloys in tribological applications under boundary lubrication conditions, there are employed epoxy coatings adhered to the surface of the titanium or titanium alloy by a titanium oxide primer layer. The anti-wear properties of the epoxy coating can be improved by incorporation of an anti-wear filler such as diamond powder. These coatings improve the friction coefficient and anti-wear properties of the titanium and titanium alloys.
