Abstract:
The TiCN films were prepared by multiple micro-pulse high power magnetron sputtering technique.The HIPIMS work voltage was 430 V,the ignition pulse voltage was 750 V,and the ignition pulse number was 3 constantly.Influence of C
2H
2gas flow on the structure and properties of TiCN films was studied.Cross-section morphology,structure,friction and wear performance,electrochemical corrosion resistance were respectively characterized by SEM,Raman spectroscopy,ball-disk friction and wear tester and electrochemical analyzer.The results show that with the increase of C
2H
2 gas flow rate,the deposition rate of TiCN film increased and the friction coefficient firstly decreased.Moreover,the wear width first decreased and then increased and the corrosion resistance of TiCN film declined initially and then remain stable.When the C
2H
2of gas flow rate was 1.4 mL/min,the wear width was 80.4
μm.
