Title A comparison of tribological and corrosion behavior of PVD-deposited CrN/ CrAlN and CrCN/CrAlCN nanostructured coatings
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Multi-layer coating CrN/CrAlN CrCN/CrAlCN Wettability Wear Corrosion
Abstract The present study evaluates the tribological and corrosion behavior of CrN/CrAlN and CrCN/CrAlCN nanostructured coatings applied on 430 stainless steel. These coatings were applied using the physical vapor deposition method from the vapor phase through the cathodic arc technique. X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and nano-indentation techniques were utilized for the coatings characterization. Moreover, the adhesion of the coatings to the substrate was evaluated by the adhesion test according to the VDI3198 standard.
