Abstract
- Abstract: Chromium nitride-based coatings are often used in application at high temperature. They possess high wear and oxidation resistance; however, the friction coefficient is typically very high. Therefore, we doped CrN coatings by carbon with the aim to improve tribological properties at elevated temperature, particularly to lower the friction. CrCN coatings were prepared by cathode arc evaporation technology using constant N2 flow and variable C2H2 flow. The coatings with a thickness of 3–4μm were deposited on hardened steel substrates and high-temperature resistant alloy. The carbon content varied from 0at.% (i.e. CrN) up to 31at.%. The standard coating characterization included the nano-hardness, adhesion, chemical composition and structure (including hot X-ray diffraction). Wear testing was done using a high temperature tribometer (pin-on-disc); the maximum testing temperature was 700°C. The coatings with carbon content 12–31at.% showed almost identical tribological behaviour up to 700°C. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
