Özet

Ti-6Al-4V alloy produced by additive manufacturing method and Ti-6Al-4V alloy coated with BN ceramic were analyzed in SRIM/TRIM Monte Carlo Simulation program at 662 keV energy using parameters such as displacement, ionization and phonon, which provide information about radiation damage, using Cs-ion. Postproduction coating thicknesses were determined by taking SEM images of the produced samples. As a result of coating the Ti-6Al-4V alloy with BN, the ion range decreased from the target depth of 3067 & Aring; to 2447 & Aring;. The total amount of damage to the material after coating decreased by approximately 21.1 % ensuring less phonon formation of the implant material exposed to the same gamma energy through the coating process, its negative effect on corrosion resistance, which is important in implant materials, is reduced.
