Article Synopsis
- The study examined how a high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) sprayed WC-17Co coating affects the fatigue resistance of TC21 titanium alloy.
- Various tests, including X-ray diffraction, surface roughness, micro-hardness, and scanning electron microscopy, were conducted to analyze the coating's properties with and without shot peening.
- Results showed that the polished coating had comparable fatigue resistance to the titanium substrate, mainly due to induced compressive stress, while moderate shot peening significantly enhanced fatigue resistance by improving surface toughness and distributing residual stress.
