The novel technology of multilayer coating deposition combining electric-spark alloying (ESA), pulsed arc evaporation (PAE), and magnetron sputtering (MS) in one vacuum process is presented. Layers can be deposited using a single electrode material at operating pressures from 0,1 Pa to atmospheric pressure. The lower ESA layer provides increased substrate toughness, perfect adhesion and a relatively high (up to 100 μm) coating thickness. The upper PAE or MS layer up to 10 μm in thickness provides high mechanical and tribological characteristics. The technology of double-layer PAE–ESA and MS–ESA coating deposition was tested on substrates made of structural and tool steels, titanium alloys using electrodes of cemented carbides (WC–Co, TiCNiAl) and carbon (low-porous graphite).

In this study, three kinds of coatings, AlTiN, AlTiN–Ni, and AlTiN–Cu were deposited via the cathodic arc evaporation method. The microstructure, mechanical properties, oxidation resistance, and cutting behavior of these coatings were then investigated. The incorporation of Cu(Ni) into AlTiN eliminated its columnar structure and led to an increase in the growth defects of its macroparticles. The addition of Cu and Ni decreased the hardness of the coatings, their elastic moduli, and their friction coefficients. All of the AlTiN, AlTiN–Ni, and AlTiN–Cu coatings presented sufficient adhesion strength values. The oxidation resistance of these three coatings was determined to be in the following order: AlTiN > AlTiN–Ni > AlTiN–Cu. Titanium turning experiments indicated that the cutting force was reduced and the tool life was improved through doping with Cu(Ni) elements, dependent on cutting speed. The AlTiN–Ni coating showed the best performance at a high cutting speed, whereas the AlTiN–Cu coating was more successful at a lower cutting speed.

AbstractThin films of titanium oxides, titanium oxynitrides and titanium nitrides were deposited on glass substrates by the methods of direct current (DC) and pulsed magnetron sputtering and cathodic arc evaporation. Phase analysis of the deposited films by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) showed the presence of phases with various Ti oxidative states, which indicated a high concentration of oxygen vacancies. The films morphology was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Investigations of the films wettability, either with water or ethylene glycol, showed that it depends directly on the concentration of oxygen vacancies. The wettability mechanism was particularly discussed.
