Preparation and characterization of Cr/CrC multilayer on γ-TiAl alloy by the double glow plasma surface alloying technology

Hard ceramic and ductile metal materials combined in multilayered structures provide superior wear and oxidation resistance to the single layer, which has been applied extensively to components subjected to high-temperature oxidation and wear. In this paper, the oxidation and wear properties of Cr/CrC multilayer coating obtained on γ-TiAl alloy by an emerging technology, that is double glow plasma surface alloying technology, were reported....
