Modification of the surface layer of VT6 titanium alloy by ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) with addition of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$, $\beta$-Si$_3$N$_4$ and Al$_2$O$_3$ powders in the deformation zone is performed. As shown by means of X-ray phase analysis and scanning electron microscopy, the surface layers of composite are formed during severe plastic deformation induced by UIT. High-temperature oxidation of composite layers leads to the formation of continuous coatings. As shown by the gravimetric analysis of samples during the cyclic high-temperature oxidation in the air (20 cycles for 5 hours at a temperature of 650°C), the heat resistance of the modified surface of titanium alloy VT6 is increased. The highest heat resistance is observed for composite coating contained $\beta$-Si$_3$N$_4$ particles. The UIT-synthesis of composite layers/coatings increases corrosion resistance of VT6 alloy in 3.5% NaCl aqueous solution and its wear resistance at dry friction. The highest rates are registered for composite coating contained Al$_2$O$_3$ particles.
Key words: ultrasonic impact treatment, composite layers, oxide/nitride powders, coating, heat resistance, corrosion, wear resistance.
