Friction and wear behaviours of Ti(C,O,N) dark decorative coatings

Functional behaviour of TiO2 films doped with noble metals

“…This physical vapour deposition technique was chosen since it is known to be an environmentally friendly coating process that provides durable materials with lowcost production, when compared to the traditional preparation methods 42 . The determination of hardness, reduced Young's modulus, wear rate and critical loads [36][37][38] was performed in order to evaluate the brittleness of the coatings and to correlate the mechanical behaviour with the composition and (micro)structure of the films 17,[39][40][41][42][43][44] .…”

The effect of WC-Co substrates on TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiCNO multilayer coatings

“…However, the adhesion strength and and low adhesion strength, the wear resistance of Coating-6Co is inferior to Coating-7Co conversely. (6) In order to make good use of Coating-6Co, some post-deposition treatment techniques that can reduce residual tensile stress and improve adhesion strength effectively should be considered.…”

“…To meet the increasing requirements of high-speed cutting and dry machining, many attempts to further improve the properties of TiN/TiCN/Al 2 O 3 / TiCN multilayer coating are conducted. TiCNO coating has high hardness, oxidation resistance and wear resistance [3][4][5][6][7]. Furthermore, the bronze colour makes TiCNO layer a good wear indicator during machining.…”

Deposition of titanium nitrides composite ceramic coating by reactive plasma spraying method

“…Titanium nitrides composite ceramic coatings have gained much attention recently due to its low friction coefficient, high hardness, high melting point, excellent chemical stability and wear reaistance [4], being used for coating the cutting tools to increase their lifetime.Titanium nitrides composite ceramic coatings can be obtained by various methods such as laser, reactive plasma spraying,PVD(physical vapor deposition) and CVD(chemical vapor deposition) [5]. However, there is a fatal disadvantage of PVD and CVD methods that the coating is thin.Reactive plasma spraying is often used for the deposition of titanium nitrides composite ceramic coatings with high quality [6] which presenting several advantages in comparison with the CVD and PVD methods, namely: the thickness can be higher and the deposited layers present high toughness, which will provide adequate strength of the layer to shocks which can occur during the operation.…”
