Al2O3 Coating on the polished Ti-6Al-4V disks, 16mm diameter, was carried out by HVLTS (High Voltage Low Temperature Sputtering)

IBC Coatings Technologies uses a thermochemical quench-polish-quench (QPQ® see registered trademarks disclaimer at the bottom of the page) nitriding process equivalent to Melonite® to harden, strengthen, and improve the corrosion resistance of metal components and equipment. Unlike some other finishes and treatments, Melonite® has a predictable and consistent outcome that significantly strengthens the surfaces of carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and austenitic steel products. It can also be highly effective when used for cast iron and sintered iron, as well. Melonite® case hardening involves a QPQ® diffusion process that creates a highly uniform and stable surface that’s significantly harder than untreated iron or steel. Thus, parts, components, and equipment treated with this form of nitrocarburizing (also called liquid nitriding) are far more resistant to normal wear and tear, even under the harshest conditions.
