Abstract
In this study, tool steel substrates were plasma-nitrocarburised at different processing parameters and afterwards tribologically tested under non-lubricated sliding conditions. It was observed that the micromechanical properties of the compound layer (thickness, hardness, roughness, surface topography) strongly affect the tribological behaviour of the nitrocarburised surface and can be tailored through the adjustment of the nitrocarburising parameters so that very favourable wear and friction behaviours can be achieved.
