Abstract:

In this study, physical vapor deposition (PVD) Ti-Cr-N coatings were deposited at two different temperatures 100 and 400ºC on hardened and tempered tool steel substrates. The influence of the applied deposition temperature on the physical and mechanical properties of coatings such as roughness, thickness, phase composition, hardness and Young’s modulus were evaluated. Phase compositions were studied by X-ray diffraction method. Mechanical properties were determined by Nano indentation. The results showed different behavior s in the mechanical properties by changing the deposition temperature. (Ti, Cr)N and TiN coatings consisted of only one solid solution cubic phase, while CrN coatings exhibited hexagonal Cr2N and cubic CrN phases. Mechanical behavior of the (Ti, Cr)N coatings was related to the Ti content and their hardness reduced by decreasing the Ti content. (Ti, Cr)N coatings deposited at high temperature exhibited better mechanical properties compared to the coating deposited at low temperatures.

Determination of Optical Properties in Germanium Carbon Coatings Deposited by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition

In this research, Germanium-carbon coatings were deposited on ZnS substrates by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using GeH4 and CH4 precursors. Optical parameters of the Ge1-xCx coating such as refractive index, Absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient and band gap were measured by the Swanepoel method based on the transmittance spectrum. The results showed that the refra...

Antibacterial and Tribological Performance of Carbonitride Coatings Doped with W, Ti, Zr, or Cr Deposited on AISI 316L Stainless Steel

Carbonitride (CNx) coatings have existed for several decades but are not well understood. Related studies have indicated that CNx coatings exhibit behaviors comparable to diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings. Metal-doped CNx coatings are expected to show superior performance to single CNx coatings. In this study, a CNx coating and a group of CNx coatings with 6 at. % metal doping (W, Ti, Zr, or C...

Comparison of Properties of Ti/TiN/TiCN/TiAlN Film Deposited by Cathodic Arc Physical Vapor and Plasma-assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition on Custom 450 Steel Substrates

This study investigated the effects of deposition techniques on the microstructural and tribological properties of Ti/TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multilayer coatings onto a Custom 450 steel substrate. The coatings were produced using cathodic arc physical vapor deposition (CAPVD) and plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD). The microstructural of the coatings was evaluated using (SEM), and phase f...
