Abstract

TiAlSiN coating was painted on the surface of 42CrMo steel by arc ion plating technology, and the influence of excitation coil voltage on the structure and friction property of the coating were analyzed. Results showed that there were a lot of holes on TiAlSiN coatings under different voltages. With the increase of voltage, the structure and friction property changed a lot: the roughness and thickness of the coating increased obviously and all layers were in a state of tight bond and formed a columnar structure; many voids appeared led to the decrease of coating density; the coating with higher microhardness was obtained, which was higher than that of alloy steel substrate; the friction coefficient and wear rate of the coating first decreased then increased, and the minimum wear rate occurred when the voltage reached 30 V, under condition of which the coating mainly suffered from abrasive wear, so more flat surface and denser structure of the coating formed, which significantly improved the wear resistance.
