The increase of hardness and other improvements of the Ti6Al4V alloy surface allow wider applicability of this material in several industrial areas, in particular, biocompatibility applications. One of the used processes was Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PIII), where the three-dimensional samples can be homogeneously treated. In such technique, the target is surrounded by the plasma and the pulse biased to high negative voltage. Another technique studied in this article was the process of nitrogen plasma jet. In this case, a reactor of low lasma density is the source of an expansion gas through a constriction hole that separates the source chamber from the vacuum chamber., where teh nitriding is processed. Physical and chemical characterizations of nitrided samples were carried out to formulate the correlations between superficial characteristics of the material and of the parameters of the ion nitriding process. %T Surface Modification of Ti6AI4v alloy two process: Immersion Ion Implantation and Plasma Jet %@nexthigherunit 8JMKD3MGPCW/3ET2RFS %K Haemocompatibility, Ion Implantation, Ion Nitriding, Plasma Jet, Ti6AI4V alloy. %@secondarytype PRE PN %@archivingpolicy denypublisher allowfinaldraft %@usergroup Michelle %@usergroup administrator %@usergroup marciana %@group LAP-INPE-MCT-BR %@e-mailaddress ueda@plasma.inpe.br %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %F self-archiving-INPE-MCTIC-GOV-BR %@issn 1422-6375 %2 sid.inpe.br/jeferson/2004/12.14.15.47.54 %B Journal of Metastable and Nanocrystalline Materials %@versiontype publisher %P 213-218 %4 sid.inpe.br/jeferson/2004/12.14.15.47 %@documentstage not transferred %D 2004 %V 20-21 %A Barbieri, F.
