    Effect of MoZrN Coating on a Steel XC100
    (JOURNAL OF NANO- AND ELECTRONIC PHYSICS, 2016-04-12) A. Abboudi; B. Meddour; B. Chermime; H. Djebaili; M. Brioua
    The zirconium nitride ZrN coatings are deposited on substrates of XC100 steel using physical vapour deposition (PVD) technique. Coatings based on nitrides of transition metals (Nb, Zr, Ti, V, ) developed by PVD are known to increase the life of cutting tools, and so they naturally have seen a rapid industrial growth. It is possible to produce ZrN-coatings with variations of nitrogen partial pressure, the residual stresses, the thickness of the thin film, and the friction coefficient depending on the nitrogen content. Usage of nitrogen is a good way to enhance wear resistance and effectiveness in tribological applications.
