Owing to their combination of high hardness and increased fracture toughness, CrTaN coatings have re- cently gained increasing interest as suitable candidates for metal cutting applications. However, up to now, the detailed mechanisms underlying the oxidation of this promising coating system are not thor- oughly understood. Thus within this work, the evolution of microstructure and phase composition of a cathodic arc evaporated Cr$_{0.74}$Ta$_{0.26}$N coating were illuminated in ambient atmosphere up to 1400 ��C. In situ high-energy X-ray diffraction showed that powdered face-centered cubic (fcc) CrTaN displays an excellent oxidation resistance up to ���1050 ��C, where the formation of tetragonal (t) CrTaO$_4$ and rhom- bohedral (r) Cr$_2$O$_3$ sets in. The compact CrTaN deposited on sapphire subjected to 1225 ��C in ambient atmosphere exhibits intact fcc-CrTaN regions near the substrate, a porous intermediate layer of r-Cr$_2$O$_3$ and t-CrTaO$_4$ and a dense r-Cr$_2$O$_3$ oxide scale at the surface.
