Article Synopsis
- A commercial purity Grade 2 titanium (Ti) underwent high-pressure torsion (HPT) at 3.0 GPa, reducing grain size from ~8.6 μm to ultra-fine grains of ~130 nm.
- Tensile tests revealed that the HPT-processed Ti achieved high ultimate tensile strength (~940 MPa) and reasonable elongation to failure (~23%).
- TiN coatings applied via physical vapor deposition on UFG Ti exhibited significantly better scratch resistance and wear resistance compared to coatings on coarse-grained Ti, suggesting its potential use in bio-implants.
