Abstract
ABSTRACTA layer of AlTiN coating was deposited on YT14 cutting tool by cathodic arc ion plating (CAIP) and the coefficients of friction (COFs) of the AlTiN coating under different loads at a temperature of 800°C were investigated with a high-temperature wear tester. The wear morphologies, chemical elements, and phases of the coating after wear were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively, and the contours of wear tracks were investigated with a comprehensive measurement tester for material surface performance. The effects of loads on COFs and wear resistance of the AlTiN coating were analyzed, and the wear mechanism of the AlTiN coating at high temperature is discussed. The results show that the mixed oxides of Al2O3 and TiO2 are produced under high temperature to improve the lubrication performance and wear resistance of the AlTiN coating. The average COFs of the coating under loads of 5, 7, and 9 N are 0.6495, 0.5897, and 0.3898, respectively. The COFs of the coating decrease with increasing load; as a result, the AlTiN coating is suitable for heavy loads at high temperature. The friction and wear mechanisms of the AlTiN coating are primarily composed of oxidation wear and abrasive wear, accompanied by fatigue wear and adhesive wear.
