Titanium nitride (tin) coatings. January 1972-Hanuary 1990 (a Bibliography from the COMPENDEX data base). Report for January 1972-January 1990

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7173214
This bibliography contains citations concerning deposition methods, structures, properties, and applications of titanium nitride (TiN) coatings. Advantages of TiN coatings include excellent adhesion to substrates, resistance to abrasive wear and elevated temperatures, reduced friction with most workplace materials, and high chemical inertness. Deposition methods include chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, ion plating, magnetron sputtering, and activated reactive evaporation. TiN coatings on machine tools, dies, molds, high-speed steels, automotive parts, heat mirrors, and solar cells are discussed. Citations concerning machine tool wear are examined in a separate bibliography. (Contains 165 citations fully indexed and including a title list.)
