AB - The possibilities for surface hardening of titanium alloys by alloying with nitrogen are reviewed. Alloying has been carried out in the solid state by plasma nitriding and in the liquid state by laser melting in nitrogen. Microstructure, hardness profiles, and fatigue and wear properties have been examined. Wear resistance was found to be greatly improved by both techniques, although at the expense of a drop in fatigue properties. Case depths of 0.1 mm were produced by plasma nitriding, while 0.5 mm case depths and a maximum hardness of 1400 HV0.1 were achieved by laser alloying.
