Abstract

AbstractNanocrystalline carbonitrides were performed by pulsed plasma electrolytic carbonitriding on hard chromium coating deposited on AISI 1035 substrate by electroplating. The electroplated samples were connected cathodically to a high‐current pulsed power supply and biased to a negative voltage. The treatment times were 30, 60 and 60 min. A thick compound layer was formed on the surface of Cr coating with microhardness of about 1 200 HV0.15. The nanostructure of the treated layers depends strongly on the applied voltage. The wear resistance of the treated layers depended on process parameters. Overall mechanical properties of treated samples show strong relation to morphology and distribution of complex carbonitride nanocrystallites.
