Abstract

In order to replace the application of electroplated hard chromium in the aviation industry, the work aims to develop new wear-resistant coating preparation processes. TiCN coatings were prepared on various substrates through multi arc ion plating technology. The corrosion resistance, wear resistance, adhesion and other properties of the coatings were systematically studied. The thermocouple pair composed of 4130 steel and 4130 steel samples with ion coated TiCN coating had high sensitivity to galvanic corrosion (severe grade E). For the thermocouple pair composed of TC4 titanium alloy and TC4 titanium alloy samples with ion coated TiCN coating, the sensitivity of thermocouple corrosion was not high (grade B, which was not severe). The bonding strength of TiCN coating on titanium alloy, 4130 steel, and 30CrMnSiA steel substrates was 30-35 N, 15-20 N, and 15-20 N, respectively. When TiCN coating is used to protect 4130 steel components, attention should be paid to controlling the defects of TiCN coating and ion plating TiCN coating can be used to protect TC4 titanium alloy components from significant galvanic corrosion. The wear resistance of TiCN coating by multi arc ion plating is poor, so the coating cannot effectively improve the wear resistance of TC4 titanium alloy and 30CrMnSiA steel.
