Journal ArticleDOI
Corrosion protection with hard coatings on steel: Past approaches and current research efforts
TL;DR: In this paper, a review on published results on the corrosion behavior of hard coatings deposited on steel substrates by mainly physical vapor deposition (PVD) or in some cases by plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition(PACVD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of the corrosion resistance of hard wear resistant coatings by intermediate plasma etching or multilayered structure
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of intermediate plasma etching on the corrosion resistance of PVD hard coatings was investigated in a series of experiments with the aim to deposit thin films onto high-speed steel by magnetron sputtering which possess a high corrosion resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corrosion behaviour of decorative and wear resistant coatings on steel deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering – Tests and improvements
TL;DR: In this paper, the corrosion behavior of the coated high speed steel substrates was studied in sodium chloride containing media by open-circuit potential measurements, potentiodynamic corrosion tests and salt spray tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deposition of NbN thin films onto high-speed steel using reactive magnetron sputtering for corrosion protective applications
TL;DR: Hard niobium nitride films were deposited onto high-speed steel (HSS) using reactive magnetron sputtering as discussed by the authors, and the porosity and corrosion behavior of the NbNx/HSS samples were studied by a copper decoration test and by potentiodynamic corrosion tests in 0.8 M NaCl solution (pH 7).
Journal ArticleDOI
Some properties of (Ti,Mg)N thin films deposited by reactive dc magnetron sputtering
TL;DR: In this article, the chemical composition, morphology and structure of the (Ti,Mg)N coatings were investigated by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and XRD, respectively.
