“…Figure 2 exhibits the XRD patterns (Figure 2a) and Raman spectra (Figure 2b) of the 7LC and 11LC coatings on 316L SS substrates. The films presented a similar crystalline structure with the combination of δ-TaN (JCPDS 49-1283) and β-Ta (JCPDS 39-1280) phases with some peaks of the FeCr structure of the 316L alloy [26,29]. In the same way, the pattern of the 7LC coating presents a different peak at 39.5°that represents the Ta2N [30,31].…”

The AISI 316L stainless steel (316L SS) is commonly used in the orthopedic prosthesis field due to its mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance. However, due to its high density and low wear resistance during sliding-contact operations, it may cause an allergic reaction due to the release of toxic ions and wear particles liberated during the sliding-contact operations. The modification of this class of metallic implants' surface characteristics represents the most common solution to change the surface's properties of the metal substrate, especially to improve the surface's mechanical and tribological behavior. DC magnetron sputtering (DCMS) is a suitable technique to deposit a layer with special characteristics due to its high control of deposition parameters, improving the film quality control. On the other hand, the binary (MN) and ternary (MXN) transition nitride coatings have shown promising results, especially the titanium (Ti), tantalum (Ta), and zirconium (Zr) nitride films, showing a high wear and corrosion resistance in mono-and multilayer arrangement. This technique can control the deposition time and temperature, working pressure, substrate rotation, the flux of gases, and the distance between the substrate and targets that modify the coating characteristics. This work presents the tribological analysis of the tantalum-zirconium-nitride/tantalumzirconium (TaZrN/TaZr) multilayer coatings sliding-contact operations. Films with 7 and 11 layers were produced using DCMS, controlling the number and thickness of the layers' coating (LC) with the nitrogen injection to the work chamber. The films presented similar structures and chemical compositions. Similarly, the elastic modulus of both films was similar, but the 7LC coating exhibited a high harness (20 ± 0.6) than the 11LC film (17.2 ± 0.4). The variation of mechanical properties was reflected in the plastic deformation resistance (H3/E*2) and the elastic strain to the failure (H/E) ratios. Reciprocating sliding-contact tests carried out the tribological tests at applied loads of 0.5, 1, and 2N at dry conditions, employing an alumina (Al2O3) ball as a counter-body. The 7LC coating presented a higher coefficient of friction (CoF) and wear rate than 11LC film at 0.5N and 1N, but at 2N, the 11CL film was detached from the surface, increasing the wear rate value. On both films, the wear tracks presented a high material transference that produces a protected layer of tantalum oxide (Ta2O5), as was observed in the Raman spectra.

“…Tantalum is another attractive metallic component for use in biomedical applications because it induces minimal adverse biological responses and has outstanding corrosion resistance [11,12]. García et al [13] reported that tantalum and zirconium in ternary nitride system coating (TaZrN) deposited by magnetron sputtering onto Ti-6Al-4 V alloy were found to enhance both corrosion resistance and wear resistance.…”

This work investigated the tribological performance of (Ta/ZrN) n multilayer coatings against ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) material. Three multilayer coatings with different designs were deposited on Ti-6Al-4 V substrate and subjected to wear testing under lubrication of diluted bovine calf serum. The results revealed an improvement in wear resistance of (Ta/ZrN) n multilayer coatings and low coefficient of friction under an applied load of 1 N. High hardness, excellent biotribological properties, and low residual stresses were obtained in the multilayer coating with the thinnest ZrN as the topmost layer of 100 nm. This work demonstrates that Ta/ZrN multilayers can be promising coatings for prosthesis applications.

“…Alloy materials cannot be directly used in ornaments for two reasons: (1) the color itself is dull [3]; and (2) contacting with air and other surfaces lets the alloy readily oxidize and corrode, and makes the alloy quality deteriorate [4]. The surface film is considered as an ideal technique to isolate the alloy from the external environment and improve its performance and ornamental value [5,6].…”

Three typical surface pretreatment strategies (grind, drawing, polishing) are employed to explore the influence of alloy substrate treatment on microstructure and surface performances of arc-ion plated TiN and ZrN films. The luminance and color of the films are measured by the color coordinate value of CIELab system (a color system which is defined by the International Commission on illumination). The crystal phases, morphology and microstructure are characterized and analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). In addition, the anti-alkali, salt corrosion and anti-oxidation performances of films are systematically researched. The results show that the films with grinding pretreatment are more like gold color, “L” values are 77.27 cd/m2 and 80.30 cd/m2. The “b” value of TiN film is 29.96, which is the same as that of pure gold. The “a” value of ZrN film is 0.31, which is the same as pure silver. The density of TiN and ZrN films is the best, and both TiN and ZrN films were crystalline. They have the best anti-alkali and anti-oxidation performance. The films with drawing pretreatment show slant red color and have medium brightness values (74.07–76.37 cd/m2), worse compactness, obvious furrows and holes in their microstructures and worse salt corrosion and anti-oxidation performances. However, the TiN films are in amorphous states. The films with polishing pretreatment have the lowest brightness (72.66 cd/m2), gold-like color, superior compactness and best salt corrosion performance, which have a small number of holes. The TiN films with polishing pretreatment are also in amorphous state. Above all, alloy substrate pretreatment by grinding has the best gold-like color, brightness, compactness and corrosion resistance performance. This work exclusively sheds new light on surface pretreatment of alloy substrate by arc-ion plated films and also provides a reference for corrosion resistance performance of gold-like films.
