Microstructure, micro-hardness, adhesion strength and cross-sectional morphology of the obtained multilayer coatings were investigated. The results show that the Vickers hardness of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating, with a film thickness of 11.37 μm, is 29.36 GPa. The erosion and salt spray resistance performance of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates can be evidently improved by Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coating. The surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates plays an important role in determining the mechanical and erosion performances of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings. Overall, a low value of the surface roughness of substrates corresponds to an improved performance of erosion and salt spray resistance of multilayer coatings. The optimized performance of Ti/TiN/Zr/ZrN multilayer coatings can be achieved provided that the surface roughness of Cr_17Ni_2 steel substrates is lower than 0.4μm.展开更多

The SEM, XRD and microvicker’s hardness as well as the indentation test were used to study the microstructure and mechanical properties of TiN/Ti(C,N) multilayer coatings. The results show that TiN/Ti(C,N) coatings are fine and have free column structure, and carbon atoms take the place of some nitrogen atoms in Ti(C,N) coatings when lower flow ratio of CH 4 is used. The microvicker’s hardness and interfacial adhesion between TiN/Ti(C,N) coatings and Cr12MoV substrate increases more obviously than that of TiN single hard coatings due to the more dense and free column structure when process is optimized.展开更多

The results show that the (Ti, Al)N monolayer and TiN/(Ti, Al)N multilayer coatings perform good affinity to substrate, and the TiN/(Ti, Al)N multilayer coating exhibits higher hardness, higher toughness and better cutting performance compared with the (Ti, Al)N monolayer coating. Moreover, the strength measurement indicates that the physical vapour deposition (PVD) coating has no effect on the substrate strength.展开更多
