Abstract

Elemental compositions and structure-phase states of titanium nitride coatings on the flat surface and in a cut of substrate from 10Cr18Ni10Ti steel are investigated by the methods of x-ray microspectral analysis, Auger electron spectroscopy, and dark-field electron microscopy analysis of the bending-torsion of the crystal lattice. It is established that the coating in the cut, unlike the coating on the frontal surface, has a modified elemental composition and a two-layer structure whose special features and thicknesses change with distance from the sample surface. It is shown that these changes are caused by phase transformations, decreased number of defects, dispersion of layer structures, and increased concentration of impurities with increasing distance from the substrate surface. Based on the results obtained, possible conditions for coating structure formation in the cut of the substrate surface are discussed.
