dc.description.abstract | The current study investigates the development of a novel hybrid surface modification (HSM) technique to improve the surface integrity of Ti–6Al–4V alloy. The approach combines the mechanical shot peening (SP) and the deposition by Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) of a tungsten-doped diamond-like carbon coating (WC/C) on Ti–6Al–4V surfaces. The mechanical shot peening induced high surface roughness increasing the metallurgical bonding sites for the PVD deposition, whereas mainly the grain growth during the deposition, was successfully eliminated. The mechanical SP process induced the high strain lattice misorientations evident for increasing the dislocation density in the crystalline structure. The Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) results suggest that subjecting the SP specimens to a temperature of 240 ◦C for more than 3 h during coating deposition, results in a reduction of dislocation densities, presumably as a result of dislocation annihilation by heat-activated dislocation mobilisation. Hence, the presented Grain Orientation Spread maps suggest that some degree of macro and micro stress relaxation may have occurred during the coating deposition treatment. Further, the Raman spectroscopy confirms the existence of beneficial compressive residual stresses on both PVD and hybrid (HY) coated surfaces. Comparatively, the HY surfaces show a high hardness of 12.08 GPa and high elasticity indices (H/E ratios) of 0.1. | en_GB |
