Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of materials, in particular to a nano Ti / TiN gradient film on the surface of a titanium alloy and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to its low elastic modulus, good biocompatibility and applicable mechanical properties, titanium alloys are widely used in load-bearing parts such as human spinal orthopedic fixers and artificial joints. However, the low wear resistance of titanium alloys makes the implants prone to wear during long-term use and produce abrasive particles, causing aseptic loosening, which seriously affects their safety and service life. TiN has excellent corrosion resistance, wear resistance and good biocompatibility, and has been designated by the US Food and Drug Administration as a surface coating material for cardiac, oral and orthopedic implants. As a human implant component, the TiN coating should not only have high hardness, wear resistance, impact toughness...
