Popis: | Nb1−xAlxN hard coatings were synthesised by cathodic arc-evaporation with different Al contents to study its influence on the tribological properties. Ball-on-disc tests at temperatures up to 700 °C were performed and the recorded coefficient of friction was generally in the range from 0.8 to 1.0. Subsequent analysis of the coating wear track and the counterpart wear scar by optical profilometry and Raman spectroscopy revealed details on the wear behaviour of the tested coatings. The best wear performance for the Nb-rich coatings was in the temperature range of 300–500 °C, whereas at the maximum testing temperature the higher oxidation resistance with increasing Al content was beneficial in terms of wear resistance. |
