Diagnostics of the structure of materials is necessary for determining subsequent technological operations in the production of finished products. In the present paper, we propose to use synchrotron radiation for investigating the phase composition of metal-ceramic coatings with a titanium alloy as a matrix and powdered titanium boride as reinforcing elements. A comparison of the results obtained from the diffraction of x-ray tube radiation (Cu) and synchrotron radiation has shown that when it is necessary to determine the phases containing light elements (in the present case B), diffraction of synchrotron radiation makes it possible to unambiguously reveal TiB in the resulting coating, whereas diffraction of x-ray tube radiation could not allow unambiguous interpretation of results. Thus, the advantage of the synchrotron radiation in diffraction studies has been shown.
