Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a method of forming dense protective coatings of co-deposited aluminum oxide and titanium oxide on wear surfaces. The coating is formed by simultaneously reacting an aluminum halide gas and a titanium halide gas with water vapor on a surface maintained at a temperature of about 900 DEG to about 1250 DEG C. Reaction conditions are maintained to assure mixing of the titanium halide gas with the other reactants only in the reaction zone and compositions of the reactant gases are limited to produce a coating comprising alpha alumina (Al2O3) with about 2% to about 10% hexagonal alpha titanium oxide (Ti2O3) dispersed in the alumina matrix.
