In this work the influence of the number of layers and
nitriding process was studied on the mechanical and
tribological properties of multilayer TiCrN coating
deposited on DIN 1.2379 cold work steel subsrate by
cathodic arc deposition. By X-ray diffraction (XRD), a
cubic crystal structure centered on the faces (FCC) was
observed for all coatings. Atomic force microscopy
determined that by nitrided layer, the roughness of
coating decreased. By indentation it was found that the
hardness (H) increases due to nitrided layer. By
reciprocating wear test at 15N load, no change in the
coefficient of friction was observed which was related
to hardness and the roughness. According to the SEM
/EDS results of the wear scar, oxide residues formed due
to abrasive wear were not found in coated samples.
