The microstructure, mechanical properties and tribological properties of CrAlTiN coatings
with various atmospheric annealing temperature are systematically investigated. The results …

It was shown in the paper that the operational properties of sialon tool ceramics coated PVD
coatings, both in conventional process as well as in hybrid ALD/PVD process, depend …

High-energy Ar+ cleaning pre-treatment was used to enhance the adhesion strength of
AlTiSiN composite coatings to a cemented carbide substrate. Then, AlTiSiN composite …

During the hard machining of powder metallurgical high-speed steel, finely dispersed
carbides in the steel expose tools to both thermal and mechanical load. PVD hard coatings …

Metastable solid solutions of cubic (c)-(Ti x Cr y Al z) N coatings were grown by a reactive
arc evaporation technique to investigate the phase transformations and mechanisms that …

Material properties of the machined parts are changed in metal cutting operations due to
generated heat and friction in chip formation process. Temperature distributions in cutting …
