In the oxygen diffusion hardened condition,untreated and laser surface melted pure titanium alloy (TA4) by Nd:YAG pulsed laser,are hardened at temperatures of 650 to 700℃ with the end result being a passive,mechanically stable,abrasion resistant oxide ceramic rutile surface layer.The thickness of this surface layer depends on the time,temperature,and the microstructure of the Ti substrate.This paper describes the results of x-ray diffraction analysis,scanning electron microscope (SEM),microhardness measurements,and corrosion resistance measurements of hardened pure and laser treated Ti substrate.The oxygen diffusion hardened titanium alloy after laser surface melted samples (L-TA4) had a more pronounced grain structure and significantly higher roughness values than the untreated pure TA4 (U-TA4)samples.The L-TA4 samples also exhibited at least equivalent corrosion behavior and a definite increase in surface hardness compared to the U-TA4 samples.The results of this work suggest that laser surface melting plays a key role for effective oxygen diffusion hardening at 650-700℃ for pure and laser treated pure Ti alloys.
