Titanium alloys are very attractive materials because they have high specific strength, excellent corrosion and erosion resistance in many active environments. However, their low hardness values and poor tribological properties require improvement of their surface properties. The present study is concerned with the fabrication of Zr and Zr–N alloying layers in the surfaces of Ti–6Al–4V substrates...
