Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the surface observation of PEO-treated Ti-6Al-4V alloy after 2-step nano-mesh formation was investigated by FE-SEM, EDS, and XRD. Anodic oxidation treatment was performed on the electrolyte containing 0.8 wt.% Na/F and 1M H₃PO₄ to form a nanotube structure on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. After removing the nanotube layer, PEO-treatment was performed on the electrolyte containing Mg and Zn ions. After forming the nanotubes, the nanomesh surface was obtained by removing the layer, and the surface roughness increased with cycle number of nanotube formation. Also, as the number of nanotubes increased, the anatase peak increased.
