Abstract
In order to improve the low hardness and low wear resistance of Ti-6Al-4V alloy, plasma carburization treatment and CrN film coating were carried out. Effects of the plasma carburization and CrN coating were analyzed and compared with the non-treated alloy by mechanical and creep tests. After plasma carburization and CrN coating treatments, the carburized layer was about 150 ${\mu}m$ in depth and CrN coated layer was about 7.5 ${\mu}m$ in thickness. Hardness value of about $H_{v}$ 402 of the non-treated alloy was improved to $H_{v}$ 1600 and 1390 by plasma carburization and CrN thin film coating, respectively. Stress exponent(n) was decreased from 9.10 in CrN coating specimen to 8.95 in carburized specimen. However, the activation energy(Q) was increased from 242 to 250 kJ/mol. It can be concluded that the static creep deformation for Ti-6Al-4V alloy is controlled by the dislocation climb over the ranges of the experimental conditions.
