Summary: -o
The paper analyzes the VPS - Ti / TiC composite coating. The powder 2 was deposited at low pressure with an F4 plasma gun produced by Plasma Technik AG because ofthe influence ofthe environment on | powder oxidation. The main goal of the work was to prevent low-pressure JS decomposition ofTiC cubic carbide into TiO2 and NiTiO3 oxides that reduce: adhesion, cohesive strength, TiC hardness, and abrasion resistance to wear. The mechanical properties and the structure of the Ti / | TiC coating were analyzed in accordance with the Pratt & Whitney standard. The microhardness values of the coating layers were in the range of 750-837 HV03, and the substrate/coating bond strength was 84 MPa. The coating microstructure was examined by the light microscopy technique. The distribution of TiC in the Ti base is uniform and the deposited layers are obtained without segregation effects. The coating structure consists of titanium layers with £> - Ti and a - Ti modifications and § TiC cubic layers. In the microstructure, there are unmelted TiC particles present in a smaller share as well as micropores that did not affect the coating strength. The tests showed that the VPS - Ti / TiC composite coating has good mechanical properties and a good microstructure, which fully enables its application on substrates of biomedical implants.
Keywords: microstructure, coatings.

elements require different material properties. These factors often make the production of medical implants harder when using one type of material. Many implant elements, such as knee replacements, only include relative movement between the components while functioning. In such conditions, polyethylene applied on supporting metal surfaces is currently widely used. However, although polyethylene as a whole is biologically inert in the body, microscopic polyethylene particles formed by wear may be poisonous if present in large quantities and they can lead to osteolysis (Pancanti et al, 2003, pp.777-785), (Atala et al, 2010), (Amstutz & Le Duff, 2012, pp.275-282), (Hamilton et al, 2013, pp.96100). This has led to an increasing interest in the fabrication of supporting surfaces of metal-on-metal implants, especially in applications involving a large contact surface (Liu et al, 2005, pp.319-328), (Haruna et al, 2017, pp.95-101), (Goldsmith et al, 2000, pp.39-47), (Xia et al, 2017, pp.1205-1217). The metal-on-metal approach requires that the supporting surfaces be extremely hard and resistant to wear. Manufacturing a whole implant out of a hard material is not acceptable, because such hard materials would be too brittle to use. The best approach is the application of appropriate hard surface layers on the supporting surfaces of the implant. This approach allows the production of implants with biocompatible materials with the desired properties, and the surface requirements are met with biocompatible hard surface layers. Although the application of surface coatings is certainly an advantage, which is a great benefit in the process of implant making, there are, however, some issues relating to the coating materials that must satisfy some of the requirements, such as: coating material must be biocompatible, coatings must not be brittle or prone to other damage, coatings should have adequate hardness and wear resistance, and coating material should be metallurgically compatible with the carrier material of the implant. Most coating materials, such as carbides, borides, nitrides, and oxides (Al2O3, ZrO2, CaO, etc.), easily meet hardness and abrasion resistance requirements, but they are brittle and often not metallurgically compatible with metal substrates of implants. It is difficult to apply hard monophase non-metallic materials on metal substrates due to residual stresses at the interface and inside the coating; this causes brittleness, cracking of coating particles, peeling and separating coating parts from the metal substrate of the implant. For example, depositing a coating of pure TiC on the Ti alloy substrate is undesirable because the coating cracks (Liu & DuPont, 2003, pp.13371342). This has led to the use of composite coatings consisting of a tough metal substrate and hard non-metallic materials evenly dispersed
in the metal substrate. In this way, a coating with the desired g characteristics can be produced. A soft metal substrate provides toughness to the coating as well as the metallurgical compatibility / K bonding with the substrate, while hard non-metallic material reinforces the coating and provides adequate hardness and resistance to wear. Another important issue is a coating application method. In this respect, a g coating application method or process should enable the production of homogeneous and thick composite coatings. The coating must be able to achieve metallurgical bonding to the base material in order to achieve adequate adhesion and to allow a minimum heat input so as not to 8 damage the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the base y material. Today, Ti / TiC composite coatings are extremely suitable for application on parts of metal-on-metal implants exposed to excessive w wear. These types of coatings can be especially used on commercial titanium alloys for the production of high performance implants. The method of protecting implant parts consists of the deposition of a mechanical mixture of commercial Ti and TiC powders of Ar inert gas at low pressure by the plasma spray process in a vacuum. Depending on the working conditions of the coating, the VPS process allows the deposition of composite coatings in different quantitative relationships between carbide and metal. At low pressure of the inert gas, the reaction 3 of metal and carbide with the air is completely eliminated. The advantage of the process is the application of the transferred arc which cleans and preheats the substrate surface prior to depositing the powder thus increasing the adhesion and cohesive strength (Mrdak, 2017, pp.30-44). The properties of coating layers are directly connected to powder technology and powder deposition parameters. TiC is dark gray, with a low density of 4.93 g/cm3 and a high melting temperature of 3140 °C. TiC particles have shown great potential as a phase that reinforces the composite material due to its high hardness level, high modulus, low density and high thermal stability. TiC-based cermets have excellent resistance to wear, high temperature, chemical corrosion, oxidation, as well as a low coefficient of friction and density (Cai et al, 2013, pp.1681-1688). TiC coatings have superior resistance when exposed to abrasion. The Ti / TiC composite base can be another metal or alloy depending on different needs and applications. Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength to weight ratio and biocompatibility, titanium is used as the carrier material for the fabrication of metal parts of implants in a large number of applications (Okazaki et al, 2001, pp.599607). Ti has a polymorphism property, since it crystallizes from the liquid state to 1665 °C in a p-spatially centered cubic lattice, and when cooled

further to 882 °C it goes into an a-hexagonal tightly packed grid. Titanium is a metal with a low density of 4.5 g/cm3, which in combination with good mechanical properties, such as high strength and hardness, gives high specific strength. The Ti/TiC coating consists of a mixture of coarse non-molten, partially molten and completely molten TiC particles uniformly distributed in the titanium base with p-Ti and a-Ti modifications. With the increase of the TiC content in the coating, the coating hardness and resistance to wear increases. Besides by the TiC content, the coating microhardness is also affected by the content, size and distribution of micropores in the deposited layers. The coating friction coefficient depends on the content of carbides in the coating. When the content of TiC particles increases, the coefficient of friction of composite coatings decreases. The friction coefficient decreases with the increase of the content of TiC particles in the coating.
The main objective of the paper is to deposit layers of coating with primary cubic titanium carbide (TiC) in a vacuum at low pressure of inert gas, which gives excellent resistance to wear, high temperature, oxidation and corrosion. Studies have shown that the VPS - Ti/TiC coating has good mechanical properties and a microstructure in which there are no oxides of TiO2 and NiTiO3. The coating layers have adhesion and cohesion strength values which are in agreement with the coating microstructure in which the primary cubic carbide TiC dominates, thus making such a coating capable of modifying the surface of biomedical implants.
Materials and experimental details
A VPS-Ti/TiC composite coating was made from a mixture consisting of a commercially pure Ti powder of 60 wt% and TiC of 40 wt%. The morphology of powder particles was examined on a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Powder particles are of irregular shape with sharp edges, obtained by a grinding technique with a powder range ranging from 45 ^m to 150 |jm. Figure 1 shows a SEM micrograph of Ti powder particles, and Figure 2 shows a SEM micrograph of TiC powder particles. The substrates on which the layers were deposited were made of steel C.4171 (X15Cr13 EN10027).
In order to test the microhardness of the Ti-TiC composite coating layers, 70x20x1.5mm samples were made, while the samples for testing the bond strength had the dimensions of 025x50mm. The microhardness of the layers was assessed by the HV03 method and the bond strength by tensile testing.

In order to assess the coating homogeneity, the layer microhardness was measured in the direction along the lamellae, in the middle and at the ends of the samples. Five readings were carried out at three measuring points, and the microhardness range from the minimum to maximum value was displayed. The coating/substrate interface strength was tested by tensile testing with a tensile speed of 1mm/1min. Five test

specimens were used and the average values were presented in the report. The microstructure of the deposited layers was examined on a light microscope. The share of micropores in the coating was analysed by processing 5 micrographs at a magnification of 200x, and the report shows the average pore content in the coating. The coating mechanical and microstructural characteristics were examined in accordance with the standard (Pratt & Whitney, 2002).
Prior to the deposition of the mechanical mixture of Ti and TiC powders, the surfaces of the substrate were roughened with white corundum particles of 0.7 - 1.5 mm. The powder was deposited on the Plasma Technik AG system with a F4 plasma gun. The microprocessor unit of the VPS Plasma Technik AG has a program for depositing a powder mixture. All process parameters were included in the program, such as: chamber vacuuming, plasma gas flow, cleaning the substrate with a transferred arc, powder mixture flow, coating deposition rate, substrate cooling and vacuum chamber ventilation. The substrate surface was cleaned with a transferred arc using Ar / He gases. The powder mixture was deposited with a mixture of Ar/H2 plasma gases. The coating was deposited with a thickness of 90-100 ^m.
The plasma spray parameters of the Ti-TiC powder deposition on the samples are shown in Tablel.

Results and discussion
Along the lamellar microstructure of the Ti / TiC coating, the microhardness values range from 750 HV03 to 837 HV03. The measured values indicate that the coating microstructure contains an undeveloped primary carbide phase TiC due to the powder deposition in an inert atmosphere of Ar at low pressure, which is confirmed by the analysis of the microstructure of the coating layer on a microscope (OM). Such a microhardness range of the deposited layers of the Ti / TiC composite coating is caused by the influence of softer Ti layers, a hard TiC carbide phase, and the presence of micropores. The tensile strength of the bond between the metal substrate and the Ti / TiC composite coating is 84 MPa. High tensile bond strength values are generally characteristic of deposited coatings in a vacuum. The roughening of the metal substrate surface and the subsequent cleaning of the substrate surface with a transferred arc at low pressure resulted in a better adherence of molten powder particles to the substrate, which led to a high adhesion value. The values of microhardness and tensile bond strength are always in correlation with the microstructure of layers.
Figures 3 and 4 are the micrographs of the structure of the deposited layers of VPS - Ti / TiC composite coatings. The qualitative analysis has shown that there are no defects in a form of discontinuity of the deposited layers, microcracks, macrocracks and separation of the coating layers from the substrate at the interface. In some places, at the substrate/coating interface, there are dark areas formed by TiC carbide particle exctraction during the sample preparation. This effect is known as pull out and, in the micrograph, it is clearly visible that these dark areas retain the morphology of an original TiC carbide particle with its angular and sharp edges.
The boundary at the substrate/coating interface is extremely clean, indicating that the substrate surface was perfectly cleaned with a transferred arc. Dark micropores of irregular shape are present in the coating layers at the lamellar borders of Ti and TiC carbides. The average value of the share of micropores was 2.7%. A smaller part of the coating contains unmelted TiC particles that are irregular in shape and darker in the micrograph. The Ti/TiC composite coating microstructure shows that the Ti and TiC layers are uniformly deposited without segregation, which is crucial for the coating good resistance to wear.

Through the coating layers, no precipitates are observed, and longitudinal oxide lamellae are not observed at the interlamellar boundaries either. This confirms that the vacuum plasma spray process
allows the deposition of coating layers without the content of TiO2 and NiTiO3 oxides which reduce the coating mechanical properties, thus showing a great advantage over other thermal spray processes. The microstructure of the Ti / TiC cermet coating is lamellar with good interlamellar bonding of longitudinal Ti lamellae which form the basis of the coating composed of p-Ti and a-Ti modifications and longitudinal g lamellae of TiC cubic carbide. Good interlamellar bonding in the deposit increases microhardness values and fracture toughness, as confirmed by mechanical tests of the coating. The inner layers of the coating are free | of microcracks. The tests have shown that the VPS - Ti / TiC composite 8 coating has such mechanical and structural properties which allow it to y be used in exploitation on parts of implants exposed to wear and -corrosion of liquids of living tissues.

a
In this work, the vacuum plasma spray process was used for depositing Ti/TiC composite coating layers. The mechanical e characteristics and the microstructure of the coating in the deposited state were analyzed, based on which the following conclusions were drawn.
The vacuum plasma sprayed Ti/TiC composite coating had the microhardness values of 750 HV0.3 to 837 HV0.3. The adhesion strength between the composite coating and the substrate had a high value of 84 MPa. Cleaning the substrate surface with a transferred arc led to a better adhesion of molten particles, which reflected in the resulting adhesion value. The microhardness and adhesion strength of the Ti/TiC composite coating bond were in correlation with the microstructure of the deposited layers.
The coating microstructure is lamellar with uniformly distributed lamellae of the basic Ti coating composed of p and a modifications and longitudinal lamellae of Ti cubic carbide. At the interlamellar surfaces, there is a share of micropores of 2.7%. Through the coating layers, the segregation of the TiC carbide phase in the Ti base is not observed, which enables uniform wear of the coating in exploitation.
The vacuum plasma sprayed Ti/TiC composite coating has good mechanical and structural characteristics, and the goal was to produce a coating of increased resistance to wear and corrosion for its application in biomedicine to modify the surface of parts of biomedical implants.
