- Abstract
Fine particle peening (FPP) using hydroxyapatite (HAp) shot particles was performed to improve the fatigue strength and form a HAp transfer layer on a beta titanium alloy (Ti–22V–4Al). The surface microstructures of the FPP-treated specimen were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, micro-Vickers hardness testing, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, and electron backscattered diffraction. A HAp transfer layer with a thickness of 5.5 μm was formed on the surface of the Ti–22V–4Al specimen by FPP. In addition, the surface hardness of the Ti–22V–4Al was increased, and high compressive residual stress was generated on the specimen surface by FPP. Rotating bending fatigue tests were performed at room temperature in laboratory air over a wide cycle-life region (103–109 cycles). In the long cycle-life regime, the fatigue strength at 107 cycles of the FPP-treated specimen became higher than that of the untreated specimen. This result is attributed to the formation of a work-hardened layer with high compressive residual stress by FPP. However, the fatigue strength was not improved by FPP in the short cycle-life regime, because fatigue cracks were initiated at surface defects formed during the FPP process. The fatigue fracture mode of the FPP-treated specimens shifted from surface-initiated fracture to subsurface-initiated fracture at a stress amplitude level of 600 MPa.
