Use of a TiBN Multilayer Coating for Wear Reduction
Abstract
The near surface area of forging dies is exposed to high mechanical loads. Additionally thermal and chemical stresses occur during the forging process. Depending on the number of forged parts, several kinds of damage develop in the surface area, which lead to failures of forging dies. Die wear is the main reason of failure with a 70% ratio. The abrasion resistance of the surface area of forging dies has to be increased in order to reduce wear. Therefore different methods were examined such as the increase of the abrasion resistance by plasma nitriding and by coating with ceramic layers (TiN, TiCN, TiC, CrN). These layers are applied to the forging die by using PACVD or PAPVD treatment. At the Institute of Metal Forming and Metal-Forming Machines of the University of Hanover a wear reduction by factor 3.5 compared to nitrided forging dies for forging helical gears was achieved. This was possible by using a coating compound of 18 ceramic layers. These excellent results for the multilayer system can be explained through the energy reduction at the inner boundaries and a crack deflection effect at the phase transitions. The layer support of neighboring layers and a stress relaxation through the stackedmore »

The layer support of neighboring layers and a stress relaxation through the stacked construction of the layer system are also improving the durability of the coating. This multilayer coating consists of a TiN-TiCN-TiC layer system with an overall thickness of 1.8 {mu}m. This paper presents investigations of this multilayer compound and further research to reduce wear through an additional TiBN coating layer. With this additional top coating an increase of the thermal resistance and the oxidation resistance can be achieved. As a result of this enhancement a further increase of the wear reduction was expected.},

This work employs the PVD process to deposit coatings of single layer TiN, binary layer TiN/TiCN, multilayer TiN/Ti/TiN, and sequenced TiN/TiCN/TiN multilayer coatings with variable individual TiN-layer and TiCN-layer thicknesses on tungsten carbide disks and inserts. Also investigated are the fracture mechanisms and the influence of sequence and thickness of these coatings on cylinder-on-disk, line-contact wear mode and ball-on-disk, point-contact wear mode through SRV reciprocating wear tests. Actual milling tests identify wear performance. Experimental results indicate that the coating with a total thickness of 7 {micro}m and layer sequence TiN/TiCN/TiN exhibits good wear resistance on SRV wear test and millingmore »

Ultrananocrystalline diamond film as a wear resistant and protective coating for mechanical seal applications.
Mechanical shaft seals used in pumps are critically important to the safe operation of the paper, pulp, and chemical process industry, as well as petroleum and nuclear power plants. Specifically, these seals prevent the leakage of toxic gases and hazardous chemicals to the environment and final products from the rotating equipment used in manufacturing processes. Diamond coatings have the potential to provide negligible wear, ultralow friction, and high corrosion resistance for the sliding surfaces of mechanical seals, because diamond exhibits outstanding tribological, physical, and chemical properties. However, diamond coatings produced by conventional chemical vapor deposition (CVD) exhibit high surface roughnessmore » -
Pulsed electrode surfacing of steel with TiC coating: Microstructure and wear properties
In the present study, pulse electrode surfacing (PES) technique was employed to deposit ultrahard and wear-resistant titanium carbide (TiC) coating on AISI 1018 steel. Wear resistance of the coated surface increased significantly. An attempt was made to correlate the thermodynamic predictions and experimental observations. A composite coating that is adherent, crack free, and defect free in nature was obtained, with TiC being the most stable phase. Islands of TiC of various shapes and sizes are present in the Fe-rich matrix in the coating. Microhardness measurements suggest high hardness values in the coating region. Tribological properties such as wear resistance andmore » -
Wear resistance of a protective coating of a nickel boride-nickel alloy
The investigations reported on in this paper show that the friction pair consisting of the coating of the nickel boride-nickel alloy and rubber is characterized by high endurance in the condition of sliding friction in a clay solution with an abrasive material. The wear resistance of the coating was compared with that of 40KhA and 20Kh13 steels (HRC /SUB r/ 52-55). The tests were conducted on the specimens in the form of the rotor of a screw drilling motor D85. The counterbody was represented by the specimens' having the profile of the stator of the same motor. The axis ofmore »
