Article Abstract

In this paper, CrAlSiN coatings with different interlayer designs (without interlayer, Cr interlayer, CrN interlayer and Cr/CrN interlayer) were successfully obtained on 316L stainless steel and single crystal silicon by multi-arc ion plating technique. Coating microstructure, mechanical, anticorrosion and tribological behaviors in artificial seawater were systematically investigated by XRD, SEM, XPS, TEM, nanoindentation, electrochemical workstation and frictional tester system. Results showed that the CrAlSiN layer presented a typical nanocrystalline/amorphous structure, which consisted of CrN, AlN and SiN phases. The Cr/CrN interlayer could obviously improve the adhesion, hardness and toughness of CrAlSiN coating. Compared with single CrAlSiN coating, the corrosion current density of Cr/CrN/CrAlSiN coating system was improved by 2 orders of magnitude and its inhibition efficiency was up to 98.82%. Under high applied load (15 N) condition, the CrAlSiN coating with Cr/CrN interlayer revealed the lowest COF (0.107 ± 0.009) and wear rate (7.3 × 10 ± 8.4 × 10 mm N m) in seawater, which primarily attributed to the synergistic effect of ideal adhesion force, outstanding toughness and effectively barrier ability.

In this study, as-cast ductile iron was austempered to produce austempered ductile iron (ADI). A CrAlSiN film was then deposited on the surface of ADI specimens using the cathodic arc deposition (CAD) method. The gas flow ratio of Ar/N varied (2, 2.

This paper provides a detailed analysis of the operation of representative forging tools (in the context of using various surface engineering techniques) used in the process of the hot forging of nickel-chromium steel elements. The influence of the microstructure and hardness of the material on the durability of the tools is also discussed, which is important for understanding the mechanisms of their wear. The research showed that the standard tools used in the process (only after nitriding) as a reference point worked for the shortest period, making an average of about 1400 forgings.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined CrAlSiN coatings with varying nitrogen content (42 to 54 at. %) and tested their microstructure and oxidation resistance at high temperatures (700 or 900 °C).
  • At lower nitrogen levels (42-45 at. %), the coatings displayed a hybrid amorphous/nanocrystalline structure, while higher nitrogen contents (above 52 at. %) resulted in a columnar structure dominated by Cr(Al)N.
  • The optimal nitrogen content of around 52 at. % provided the best oxidation resistance, characterized by a stable AlO-rich monolayer, while lower nitrogen coatings formed thicker CrO layers and showed elemental segregation after high-temperature exposure.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the interface adhesion work in three terminal systems involving CrAlSiN and WC-Co, finding that the CrAlSiN/WC-Co model had the highest adhesion work, indicating better bonding properties, while the others had lower values.
  • Rare earth oxides CeO and YO were then introduced into the Al terminal model, leading to the construction of doping models for various interfaces, where doping with CeO and YO generally reduced adhesion work in the WC/WC and CrAlSiN/WC-Co interfaces but improved it in the WC/Co interface.
  • The study also examined charge density differences and bond populations, revealing that doping with YO resulted in stronger atomic interactions and improved bonding strength at the interface compared to CeO
