TiAlN and CrN are gaining increasing importance in many industrial applications. To improve their mechanical and tribological properties further, these materials have been deposited to form 3 mu m thick superlattice structures of TiAlN-CrN (period 3.8 nm). The structural and tribological characteristics of TiAlN-VN (period 3.0 nm) and CrN-NbN (period 3.7 nm) have also been studied in comparison with TiAlN-CrN and monolithic TiAlCrN and CrN alloys. All coating were deposited using the combined steered cathodic are-unbalanced magnetron deposition method. The superlattice coatings generally showed increased hardness value and considerably reduced sliding and micro-abrasive wear compared with TiAlCrN and CrN. In the case of superlattice structured films TiAlN-VN films showed exceptional performance in dry sliding wear tests and, generally, all TiAlN-based films performed well in micro-abrasive wear trials. Corrosion tests revealed that CrN-NbN coatings exhibited clear passivation characteristics with considerably better corrosion resistance than stainless steel and significantly lower passive current density than electroplated hard chromium.
