ABSTRACT
The operating characteristics of metals and alloys comprising corrosion and erosion resistance, fatigue failure, friction, wear and crack resistance under corrosion fatigue and a number of other properties are determined by the structure-phase condition of the surface layers [1-3]. The technique of ion implantation is a promising method of modification of the operation properties for many construction materials and, in particular, titanium alloys [4-6]. The given method allows us to reduce the time and temperature of the effect on the material by tens of times, to carry out selective treatment of certain parts of the components as well as automates the process of treatment to a certain extent. However, ion synthesis is a complicated physicalmechanical process, in which the formation of secondary phases, their morphology, structure and surface layers properties are determined by a complex of physical conditions, depending on which they can change over a wide range. The implantation of the alloying elements ions into the titanium alloys surface layers by ion-beam techniques results in the formation of inter metallide secondary phases providing not only high mechanical properties but also good physical-chemical characteristics (antifriction and anticorrosion).
