Abstract

The nanoscratch behaviour of TiN/CrN nanolaminates has been investigated in the present study. The critical load (LcSUB align=rightL) during the loading process characterises the fracture resistance of the coating, whereas that during unloading (LcSUB align=rightU), characterises the adhesion strength between the coating and the substrate. For all coatings, the nanoscratch profiles indicate three distinct regimes: elastic deformation, elastic plastic deformation and delamination with material removal. Multilayer coatings show significantly higher critical loads than monolayer coatings. SEM characterisation indicates the cracking mechanisms are different for monolayer and multilayer coatings explaining why the multilayer coatings withstand higher critical loads. © Copyright 2008, Inderscience Publishers.
