Influence of tribological properties of Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Cr,Al)N and Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Mo,Al)N multilayer nanostructured coatings on the cutting properties of coated tools during dry turning of Inconel 718 alloy
Wear(2023)
Abstract
The article studies the tribological properties of multicomponent nanostructured coatings of Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Cr,Al)N and Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Mo,Al)N, as well as the wear resistance and fracture behaviour of cutting tools with the mentioned coatings during the turning of Inconel 718 alloy. The Ti–TiN-(Ti,Cr,Al)N coating was also considered as a reference coating. While the Ti–TiN-(Ti,Cr,Al)N coating is characterized by high hardness, it also demonstrated high coefficients of friction (COF) at temperatures of 600 °C and above (i.e., at temperatures in the cutting zone). The Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Mo,Al)N coating has a balanced combination of high hardness and low COF at cutting zone temperatures. As a result, the Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Mo,Al)N-coated tool demonstrated wear resistance 2.4 times higher than that of the Ti–TiN-(Ti,Cr,Al)N-coated tool. During the process of cutting, zirconium (Zr) and chromium (Cr) oxides are formed in the Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Cr,Al)N coating, and the formation of zirconium and molybdenum (Mo) oxides is detected in the Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Mo,Al)N coating, which can have a positive effect on cutting conditions. Under the cutting conditions, the oxidizing action caused an almost complete transformation of a nitride coating structure into an oxide structure, while the nanolayer structure was partially preserved.
