ABSTRACT
In this paper, CrAlSiN coatings with different interlayer designs (without interlayer, Cr interlayer, CrN interlayer and Cr/CrN interlayer) were successfully obtained on 316L stainless steel and single crystal silicon by multi-arc ion plating technique. Coating microstructure, mechanical, anticorrosion and tribological behaviors in artificial seawater were systematically investigated by XRD, SEM, XPS, TEM, nanoindentation, electrochemical workstation and frictional tester system. Results showed that the CrAlSiN layer presented a typical nanocrystalline/amorphous structure, which consisted of CrN, AlN and Si3N4 phases. The Cr/CrN interlayer could obviously improve the adhesion, hardness and toughness of CrAlSiN coating. Compared with single CrAlSiN coating, the corrosion current density of Cr/CrN/CrAlSiN coating system was improved by 2 orders of magnitude and its inhibition efficiency was up to 98.82%. Under high applied load (15 N) condition, the CrAlSiN coating with Cr/CrN interlayer revealed the lowest COF (0.107 ± 0.009) and wear rate (7.3 × 10-8 ± 8.4 × 10-9 mm3 N-1 m-1) in seawater, which primarily attributed to the synergistic effect of ideal adhesion force, outstanding toughness and effectively barrier ability.
