A microblasting treatment carried out on CrN coated samples was studied to investigate the induced effect on corrosion and wear resistance. CrN coating was deposited through Cathodic Arc Evaporation technique on quenched and tempered steel. The properties of the coating were studied by hardness measurements, scratch, potentiodynamic, and pin-on-disk tests. The results show that microblasting reduces the corrosion resistance while improving the wear behavior.

The current market requirements are related to the introduction of new protective coatings for tools and machine parts with much better performance properties. These requirements are met by the AlCrSiN coatings; however, knowledge on the adhesion of these coatings to the substrate, as well as on their corrosion resistance, is deficient. The article presents the results of technological works on the coating deposition from AlCrSi cathodes with a silicon concentration from 0 at% to 10 at% by the cathodic arc evaporation and the results of systematic studies of their structure, mechanical, tribological and electrochemical properties. A correlation between the above-mentioned properties and the silicon concentration in the AlCrSiN coatings has been found and discussed. The coatings formed from cathodes containing less than 5 at% Si crystallize in the cubic structure. The size of the crystallites decreases with the silicon concentration increase. The coatings are characterized by a high hardness with a maximum of about 37 GPa (2 at% Si). The adhesion of the coatings is almost independent of the concentration of silicon. The wear rate is about one order of magnitude higher for coatings deposited from cathodes with a silicon concentration of 5 at% and 10 at% compared to a coating with a lower silicon concentration. This finding is consistent with the results of corrosion resistance studies. The coating deposited from the cathode with 10 at% of silicon exhibits the best anticorrosion properties against the salt solution.

TiN/CrN nanoscale multilayered coatings have been deposited using cathodic arc evaporation system. The coatings were deposited using one Ti target and one Cr target with a fixed power output in the processes, whilst the bi-layer thickness was varied by rotation of the substrate holder to obtain different nanoscale multilayered period thickness. The texture structure, residual stress and nanoscale multilayer thickness of the coatings were determined by X-ray diffraction using both Bragg-Brentano and glancing angle parallel beam geometries. Hardness and adhesion strength of the coatings were measured by Vicker's and Rockwell-C indentation methods. It has been found that the structural and mechanical properties of the films were correlated with nanoscale bi-layer thickness and crystalline texture. The maximum hardness of nanolayered TiN/CrN multilayer coatings was approximately 28 GPa, which the bi-layer thickness was 4 nm.

TiAlN, and TiAlN/CrN nanolayered coatings were synthesized by cathodic-arc evaporation with plasma enhanced duct equipment. Chromium and TiAl (50/50 at %) alloy cathodes were used for the deposition of TiAlN/CrN coatings. The effects of bilayer thickness and chromium content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of TiAlN/CrN nanolayered coatings were studied. The preferred orientation was changed from (200) in TiAlN monolayered coatings to (111) plane in the multilayered TiAlN/CrN coatings. The multilayered TiAlN/CrN coating with periodic thickness of 20 nm and the smallest crystallite size of 28 nm exhibited the highest hardness of 39 GPa. The multilayered TiAlN/CrN coatings also showed the best adhesion strength using scratch tests. It has been found that the structural and mechanical properties of the films were correlated with the addition of chromium and nanolayer thickness.

Coatings were deposited by pulsed cathodic arc evaporation (PCAE) of a TiC–NiCr–Eu2O3 cathode fabricated by the powder metallurgy method. The deposition was carried out in different gas media, including Ar, N2, and C2H4. The structure, elemental, and phase compositions of coatings were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Raman spectroscopy, and glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES). Coatings were tested in terms of their hardness, elastic modulus, elastic recovery, friction coefficient, and wear and corrosion resistance. The obtained results demonstrated that the coatings deposited in Ar possessed higher hardness up to 20 GPa and an elastic recovery of 92%. Coatings produced using С2H4 showed the minimum friction coefficient (0.35 ± 0.01). The use of nitrogen as a gas medium led to the formation of coatings with the best corrosion resistance in sulfuric acid. Coatings formed in N2 had a free corrosion potential of +0.28 V and a corrosion current density of 0.012 µA/cm2.
