摘要

The influence of the deposition mode and test conditions on the structure and tribological properties of cathodic-arc MoN coatings was investigated. At bias voltages in the range from −30 to −70 V, 10 μm thick coatings based on hexagonal molybdenum nitride δ‑MoN with high nanohardness (up to 34.7 GPa) and elastic modulus (up to 471 GPa) are formed on a 15Kh12VNMF steel substrate. Tests of “coated plate–ball” tribopairs using ∅ 10 mm ceramic (Al2O3) and steel (ShKh15) balls without and with 10 μm thick CrN, TiN and MoN coatings show that the coating deposited at a bias voltage of −70 V has the best properties; the “plate with MoN coating–ball with TiN coating” pair is optimal by the tribological characteristics at 20 °C. At 500 °C the wear resistance of the MoN coating decreases rapidly, which is associated with its thermal instability and transformation into molybdenum oxide under the influence of contact stresses.
