Abstract

In this work, the wear resistance and fracture characteristics of (Ti,Al)N-Cu, (Ti,Al)N-Ni, and (Ti,Al)N coatings deposited onto a carbide substrate by the filtered cathodic vacuum arc deposition method were investigated comparatively under various loading and friction conditions. The (Ti,Al)N-Cu and (Ti,Al)N-Ni metal-ceramic coatings showed an equiaxial structure with a ceramic phase grain size of about 15–20 nm. The coatings showed a hardness of about 50 GPa and maintained their fracture toughness (the relative work of plastic deformation was ~65%). The (Ti,Al)N ceramic coating showed a columnar structure having elements with a diameter of about 120 nm. This coating exhibited a hardness of about 27 GPa and was characterized by a significantly lower fracture toughness (the relative work of plastic deformation was ~45%). The tribological properties of these coatings were examined at 20 and 500 °C. It was found that the metal-ceramic coatings showed significantly lower friction coefficient values (~0.56 and 0.61) than the ceramic coatings (~0.68 and 0.70). The fracture pattern of the metal-ceramic coatings was obtained by simulating their abrasive wear during a scratch test. Complete abrasion of the coatings was not observed until 90 N. Under similar tests, the (Ti,Al) N coating showed adhesive destruction by the separation of large fragments from the substrate. Complete coating wear was observed at a load of ~70 N. The erosion of the coatings during hydroabrasive treatment under multicycle impact loading was investigated. It was found that the nanostructured (Ti,Al) N-Cu and (Ti,Al)N-Ni coatings were 1.5 and 2 times less susceptible to wear than the (Ti,Al) N coating, respectively. The wear characteristics of the coatings were analysed on the basis of their structures and physical and mechanical properties, including their H/E and H3/E2 parameters, which denote the resistance of a material to elastic and plastic deformation respectively.
