Abstract: Due to economical demands to further increase the efficiency of production processes, it is essential to exploit the full potential of wear resistant hard coatings. This is, however, possible only if the coating microstructure and properties are well characterized. Thus, in the present work, recently suggested advanced characterization techniques for coatings are reviewed. The application of atom probe tomography, electron backscatter diffraction and synchrotron X-ray nanodiffraction enables previously unrevealed insights in their chemical composition, microstructure and crystallographic structure. For the determination of mechanical and tribological properties at elevated temperatures, high-temperature nanoindentation and high-temperature ball-on-disk tests in combination with in-situ measurement techniques are discussed. Utilization of micromechanical tests for coatings provides information about their fracture toughness and rupture strength. High-temperature X-ray diffraction and biaxial stress temperature measurements for the determination of the coefficient of thermal expansion are compared. The thermal conductivity as well as the specific heat capacity of coatings can be studied using the 3- ω technique, time domain thermoreflectance and differential scanning calorimetry. The introduced portfolio of characterization techniques enables the determination of a complementary microstructural, mechanical and thermo-physical fingerprint of wear resistant hard coatings, which allows to understand the complex structure–property relations in these materials and subsequently to further improve their performance.
