Abstract
The possibility of increasing the hardness to 1420 HV and the corrosion resistance of the CP-Ti surface using a combined plasma electrolytic treatment consisting in anodic plasma electrolytic nitrocarburising in a solution of ammonia, acetone and ammonium chloride at 900 °C and subsequent plasma electrolytic polishing is shown. The morphology, surface roughness, phase composition, structure and microhardness of the modified layer were studied. The corrosion characteristics of the treated surface were studied through potentiodynamic tests and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. It has been shown that an increase in the surface roughness has a negative effect on the corrosion resistance. The proposed plasma electrolytic polishing makes it possible to remove the outer porous oxide layer, providing increased corrosion resistance. The highest reduction in the corrosion current density, by 13 times compared to CP-Ti and by two orders compared to a plasma electrolytic nitrocarburising sample, is achieved after plasma electrolytic polishing in a solution of ammonium fluoride (4%) at 300 V for 3 min.
