Abstract

In the first part of the paper the microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V with laser embedded SiC particles is explained. The interfacial reaction between Ti and SiC is responsible for the largely improved wear resistance of the Ti alloy. In the second part the phase responsible for the intergranular corrosion susceptibility of an Al-Mg alloy when annealed above 65 °C is identified and possible mechanisms to solve this interfacial problem are proposed.
