Description

Self-organized nanostructure oxynitride hard coating and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of coating materials, and particularly relates to a self-organized nanostructure oxynitride hard coating as well as a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The surface of the workpiece is plated with a hard coating, so that friction can be reduced, abrasion of the workpiece can be reduced, and the surface hardness, toughness, high-temperature stability and wear resistance of the product can be effectively improved, so that the service life of the product is prolonged. Modern manufacturing industry has increasingly high requirements on the performance of cutting tools, and parts used in friction environments, such as piston rings in internal combustion engines, various dies, etc., have extremely high friction losses, and the hard coating on the surface of the parts can prolong the service life of the parts. Hard coating materials have been widely used in the fields of automobile manufacturing, geological drilling, tool and die industry, marine turbines, aerospace, and the like.
Based on AlTiN and AlCrN hard coatings with good performance, researchers adopt PVD technology to prepare oxynitride hard coatings such as AlCrON and AlTiON. Based on the characteristics of good high-temperature performance stability and low thermal conductivity of the oxide coating, the high-temperature friction performance of the oxynitride coating is superior to that of the nitride coating, the thermal conductivity is reduced by 4-8 times, and the oxynitride coating has superior performance to that of the nitride coating when being applied to a cutter to cut processed materials such as stainless steel, cast iron and the like. Nevertheless, the comprehensive performance of the oxynitride coating still needs to be improved, and the nitrogen-rich oxynitride coating has a structure and performance similar to those of the nitride coating, and has poor high-temperature stability and friction performance compared with the oxide coating; and the toughness and hardness of the coating are sharply reduced when oxygen is enriched. The nitride coating and the oxide coating can be combined through the optimized structural design, so that the oxynitride hard coating has the advantages of high hardness, good toughness and excellent high-temperature performance.
Nanocomposites and nanolayers are important structural forms of nanostructured coatings. The nano composite coating is a composite structure coating formed by wrapping nano crystals in a mesh framework structure amorphous phase. Formation of the nanocomposite requires that the nanocrystalline phase and amorphous phase are immiscible with each other, for example, the AlTiSiN coating studied by Sui Xu et al is a composite structure system with both nanocrystalline phase and amorphous phase, and the nanoscale AlTiN crystal phase is wrapped in the network Si3N4In the amorphous phase, the network framework structure limits the growth of AlTiN grains, is influenced by Hall-Petch effect, achieves the effect of fine grain strengthening, and improves the mechanical properties of the coating such as hardness and the like.
The nano-multilayer coating has properties that are difficult to achieve with a single layer coating. The nano multilayer coating is formed by alternately depositing single-layer films of two or more components, and a multilayer film which completes one period every time the single-layer films are alternately deposited is called a modulation period. Due to the effects of lattice mismatch, template effect, modulus difference effect and the like between modulation layers, the nano multilayer coatingThe super-hard effect can be obtained, the hardness and the wear resistance of the coating can be obviously improved, and the toughness and the thermal stability of the coating can be improved. In many previous studies on oxynitride coatings, oxides are often present in an amorphous state, the modulus difference is not significant, the enhancement condition of the modulus difference effect is not satisfied, and the hardness of the coating is reduced due to the increase of the amorphous oxides. However, Liu Yan, Wei Li et al are studying TiN/SiO2AlTiN/AlON nano multilayer coatings have found that increased hardness can be obtained when the oxide layer is sufficiently thin to pseudomorphically grow in the nano multilayer with a nitride template. The inventor of K.Yalamarchli, P.C.Wo and the like finds that the ZrN/ZrAlN and TiN/TiSiN nano multilayer coating with high hardness and good toughness can be obtained by the synergistic effects of nano multilayer coherent strengthening, multilayer toughening, phase change toughening and the like.
