Electrospark treatment of a titanium alloy Ti6Al4V in a mixture of granules allows the formation of intermetallic Ti-Al coatings. The coating structure is penetrated by a network of cracks with a thickness of 0.46 to 1.19 microns and a specific area of 1.5 to 3.4%. A change in the ratio of Ti to Al in the mixture of granules does not lead to a monotonic change in the thickness and number of cracks. A decrease in the pulse duration from 200 to 20 μs leads to a slight decrease in the thickness of cracks and significantly increases their total area from 2.1 to 3.4%. An increase in the discharge pulse repetition rate can significantly increase the thickness of cracks in Ti-Al electrospark coatings.

This paper presents the laser surface polishing of titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) by using a nanosecond pulse laser. Air, nitrogen and argon were employed as a shielding gas in this study, where the areal roughness (Sa) of laser-polished surface was measured and compared. The results showed that argon was the suitable assist gas for improving the metal surface without causing the oxidation. The effect of laser pulse repetition rate and scan speed on the surface roughness was also investigated in this study. The use of high repetition rate together with slow scan speed was able to reduce the surface roughness of titanium alloy. The roughness was found to be reduced by 47% when the pulse repetition rate of 500 kHz and scan speed of 50 mm/s were applied.

Two approaches are proposed for the synthesis of bimetallic Au/Ag nanoparticles, using the pulsed laser ablation of a target consisting of gold and silver plates in a medium of supercritical carbon dioxide. The differences between the two approaches related to the field of “green chemistry” are in the use of different geometric configurations and different laser sources when carrying out the experiments. In the first configuration, the Ag and Au targets are placed side-by-side vertically on the side wall of a high-pressure reactor and the ablation of the target plates occurs alternately with a stationary “wide” horizontal beam with a laser pulse repetition rate of 50 Hz. In the second configuration, the targets are placed horizontally at the bottom of a reactor and the ablation of their parts is carried out by scanning from above with a vertical “narrow” laser beam with a pulse repetition rate of 60 kHz. The possibility of obtaining Ag/Au alloy nanoparticles is demonstrated using the first configuration, while the possibility of obtaining “core–shell” bimetallic Au/Ag nanoparticles with a gold core and a silver shell is demonstrated using the second configuration. A simple model is proposed to explain the obtained results.

Single-grain grinding test plays an important part in studying the high speed grinding mechanism of materials. In this paper, a new method and experiment system for high speed grinding test with single CBN grain are presented. In order to study the high speed grinding mechanism of TC4 alloy, the chips and grooves were obtained under different wheel speed and corresponding maximum undeformed chip thickness. Results showed that the effects of wheel speed and chip thickness on chip formation become obvious. The chips were characterized by crack and segment band feature like the cutting segmented chips of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V.
