Abstract

Recycling equipment (waste/sea water/chemicals) need high tribocorrosion resistance. In this work High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering technique deposited nanoscale CrN/NbN multilayer coating for tribocorrosion resistance is explored. Sliding-wear experiments were conducted on CrN/NbN coated High Speed Steel (HSS) test coupons with an alumina (Al2O3) ball as a counterpart in a corrosive environment (3.5% NaCl solution) under potentiodynamic and potentiostatic conditions. Results reveal that coated substrates exhibited (by a factor of 3) lower corrosion currents and high tribo-corrosion resistance (Kc = 2 × 10−15 m3N−1m−1) as compared to uncoated HSS specimens. The alumina counterpart exhibited negligible wear in all the tests. Superior adhesion and dense microstructure consisting of flat and well-defined hard nitride nanolayers leads to stable friction coefficients and retain the unique nanoscale layer-by-layer wear mechanism without delamination. Effect of corrosion on friction coefficients, wear mechanisms and vice versa has been presented.
