Microstructure and Material Properties of Ti-15mass%Nb Alloy after Gas Nitriding and Quenching Process

The α′ martensite of Ti-15mass%Nb alloy exhibits high internal friction with high damping properties. However, its structure is smoother than the α + β structure. Therefore, a hardened surface layer is required for abrasion resistance. This study fabricated a martensite structure inside the nitridin...
