  2. 21. Arc Evaporated Titanium Carbonitride Coatings

    Author : Lennart Karlsson; Wolf-Dieter Münz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : TiCxN1-x thin films is an important group of coatings for enhancing wear-resistance of, e.g., tools for metal cutting. The influence of microstructure, composition, and residual stress state, on the mechanical properties of such films, have been investigated. READ MORE

  4. 22. TiAlN-based Coatings at High Pressures and Temperatures

    Author : Robert Pilemalm; Magnus Odén; Mikael Olsson; Rachid M'Saoubi; Mats Jöesaar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Materials science; thin films; coatings; spinodal decomposition; TiAlN; TiZrAlN; HPHT; high pressure high temperature; BELT-press; transmission electron microscopy; x-ray diifraction; microhardness;

    Abstract : TiAlN and TiAlN-based coatings that are used of relevance as protection of cutting tool inserts used in metal machining have been studied. All coatings were deposited by reactive cathodic arc evaporation using industrial scale deposition systems. The metal content of the coatings was varied by using different combinations of compound cathodes. READ MORE

  5. 23. Thin film growth and characterization of Ti-Si-C MAX-phases

    Author : Jens Emmerlich; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the growth of Ti-Si-C MAX-phases on A12O3(0001) and MgO(111) substrates with the emphasis on epitaxial Ti3SiC2 thin films by means of DC magnetron sputtering. Ti3SiC2, Ti4SiC3 as well as the two intergrown structures Ti5Si2C3 and Ti7Si2C5 were grown using sputtering from three individual elemental targets of Ti, Si, and C, respectively. READ MORE

  6. 24. Thermal Barrier Coatings : Durability Assessment and Life Prediction

    Author : Robert Eriksson; Sten Johansson; Michael Schütze; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems are coating systems containing a metallic bond coat and a ceramic top coat. TBCs are used in gas turbines for thermal insulation and oxidation resistance. READ MORE

  7. 25. Engineering of metal microstructures : process-microstructure-property relationships for electrodeposits

    Author : Jens A. D. Jensen; Dieter Landolt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The relationships between growth-conditions, topography and microstructure, and physical properties of electrochemically deposited copper, nickel and zinc-iron alloys were studied. Growth was investigated while systematically varying process parameters such as electrolyte chemistry, type and concentration of additives, current density, and mass transport. READ MORE
