Study of the Local Mechanical Properties of Magnetron Sputtered Nanolaminate Coatings

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nanostructure coatings based on boroncarbide were prepared using magnetron sputtering technique. The mechanical properties of the coatings were tested using quasi-static and dynamic nanoindentation tests with Berkovich and cube-corner indenters. The fracture resistance of the coatings and the coating/substrate interface was studied. Moreover, the dynamic wear and scratch resistance of the coatings was evaluated by means of impact and scratch tests.
