Descripción
CrN coatings deposited by Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) are widely used due to their high hardness and high wear resistance, low friction coefficient and superior corrosion resistance. The latter makes this coating appropriate for protecting forming tools, moulds and components used in chemical processing. In this work, single layer CrN coatings were deposited on plasma nitrided and non treated AISI 4140 steel. The influence of nitriding on the wear resistance, coefficient of friction and corrosion resistance in acidic solutions and chloride solutions was studied. Thickness of the coatings was measured using optical microscopy, and surface hardness was assessed with a Vickers microindenter. Adhesion was determined using Rockwell indentation applying 150 kg and scratch test as well as Scratch test at different constant loads. Sliding wear resistance was studied with Pin-on-Disk tests under different normal loads and sliding distances, the coefficient of friction was registered during the tests and volume loss was calculated. Corrosion test were carried out using a 3.5 % NaCl solution and a 0.5 M H2SO4 solution as electrolytes. Nitrided steel without any coating was used also as comparison. Coating thickness was approximately (2.6 ± 0.4) μm and surface hardness reached a value of (1960 ± 160) HV0.05, being this a composed hardness because of the low film thickness. Adhesion was good for both substrates, non nitrided and nitrided steel, in both cases, it could be classified as HF1 according to VDI 3198 standard. In the case of the Scratch test, in the only coated samples, without nitriding as pre treatment the film cracking was observed at 50 N in the track, whereas in the duplex sample the coating had a better load bearing capacity and reached 70 N without damage. No delamination was detected around the scratch track in all cases. Wear volume loss was undetectable in the pin-on-disk test for the coated systems, whereas it was approximately 30 x 10-3 mm3 for the nitrided steel and 150 x 10-3 mm3 for the untreated steel. In the corrosion tests, the coating showed a passive behaviour as tested in NaCl solution and the corrosion current density was significantly lower for coated samples in the H2SO4 solution, proving that the CrN coating is suitable for protecting steel substrate in both chloride and acidic media.
