Characterization of (Ti, Al) N Films Synthesized by Arc Ion Plating

Article Preview

Abstract:

(Ti, Al) N coating had been deposited by Arc Ion Plating, in an atmosphere of nitrogen. The structure of the coatings was examined as a function of deposition conditions by X-ray diffraction, and the crystallographic orientation was determined by use of a texture coefficient. The coatings on ground titanium substrates developed a strong (111) orientation from the earliest stages of growth, although the degree of orientation was dependent on deposition conditions. TiAlN coatings, however, showed relatively multiple orientations mainly of (111) and (200). Furthermore, TiAlN films demonstrated superior corrosion resistance in a molten aluminum alloy at 680°C. This paper described in detail the corrosion and mass loss phenomena related to this steel-cast metal interaction.
