"The present paper describes results from a recent research project aimed at forming a wear resistant coating based on chromium on tools to wood machining. Cr2N/CrN multilayer coatings deposited on HS6-5-2 steel substrates using cathodic arc evaporation were tested," investigators in Koszalin, Poland report. "These coatings were formed from 7 bilayers being ca. 340 nm thick and equally thick Cr2N and CrN layers. For comparison, Cr2N and CrN monolayer coatings were also prepared. Hardness measurements, indentation and scratch tests, friction and wear were performed to characterize the mechanical properties. The wear tracks and Rockwell indentations enable to assess wear...
