Abstract
Ti6Al4V (TC4) slices were boronized with rare earth oxide (RE) addition in the agent at 950°C (below β phase transus of TC4). The morphology, phases, properties and structures of TC4 matrix and boride layers were studied. The results show that the boride layer on the surface of TC4 consists of TiB2 and TiB dual compounds. The boride layer is compact, uniform and less porous compared with that obtained at 1050°C (above β phase transus of TC4), and the hardness profile and brittleness of the layers are improved to a certain extent. Lower temperature boronizing can effectively prevent the growth of coarse β phase grains. Duplex microstructure is obtained in TC4 matrix, and the work piece distortion is reduced.
