Abstract
The Ti–29Nb–13Ta–4.6Zr alloy (TNTZ) is a β-Ti alloy that has a potential for use in biomedical applications as an alternative to the less-compatible Ti64 alloys. Enhancing the strength and the surface finish of TNTZ is essential for biomedical applications. In this research, a combination of high-pressure torsion (HPT) and laser treatment was used to improve the TNTZ properties. The HPT-treated samples showed significantly enhanced mechanical properties when compared with the traditional solution-treated TNTZ. A laser surface treatment immediately forms a hydrophilic surface that transforms into a steady hydrophobic state after 14 days in air and the surface roughness increases with an increase in laser power and a slower scanning rate. The corrosion resistance of TNTZ improves significantly after laser treatment, with the corrosion current dropping from 1 × 10−8 to 1.2 × 10−9 A and the corrosion potential peak shifting to a more positive value from − 0.349 to − 0.158 V. The friction coefficient after laser treatment decreased from 0.134 to 0.093 and then further reduced to 0.082 after 14 days in air thereby suggesting an enhancement in the tribological properties. Overall, the results show that HPT processing combined with a post-HPT laser treatment is beneficial for enhancing the mechanical properties and the corrosion and wear performance of the TNTZ alloy.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
