Quinary Ti-Al-Si-C-N films were successfully synthesized on SUS 304 substrates and Si wafers by a hybrid coating system combining an arc ion plating technique and a DC reactive magnetron sputtering technique. In this work, the effect of Si content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-Al-C-N films were systematically investigated. It was revealed that the microstructure of Ti-Al-Si-C-N coatings changed from a columnar to a nano-composite by the Si addition. Due to the nanocomposite microstructure of Ti-Al-Si-C-N coatings, the microhardness of The Ti-Al-Si-C-N coatings significantly increased up to 56 GPa. In addition the average friction coefficients of Ti-Al-Si-C-N coatings were remarkably decreased with Si addition. Therefore, Ti-Al-Si-C-N coatings can be applicable as next-generation hard-coating materials due to their improved hybrid mechanical properties.

Nano-multilayered, crystalline AlTiSiN thin films were deposited on WC-TiC-Co substrates by the cathodic arc plasma deposition. The deposited film consisted of wurtzite-type AlN, NaCl-type TiN, and tetragonal $Ti_2N$ phases. Their oxidation characteristics were studied at 800 and $900^{\circ}C$ for up to 20 h in air. The WC-TiC-Co oxidized fast with large weight gains. By contrast, the AlTiSiN film displayed superior oxidation resistance, due mainly to formation of the ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$-rich surface oxide layer, below which an ($Al_2O_3$, $TiO_2$, $SiO_2$)-intermixed scale existed. Their oxidation progressed primarily by the outward diffusion of nitrogen, combined with the inward transport of oxygen that gradually reacted with Al, Ti, and Si in the film.

$Ti_{0.26}Al_{0.16}Si_{0.01}N_{0.57}$ (at%) coatings were synthesized on stainless steel 304 by using arc ion plating systems (AIPS). Targets employed for the deposition were Ti, AlSi(67:33at%) and AlSi(82:18at%). The thickness of TiAlSiN coatings is $4{\mu}m$. The oxidation characteristics of the deposited coatings were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in air between 800 and $900^{\circ}C$ for 75 hr. The oxide scale formed on the TiAlSiN coatings consisted of $rutile-TiO_2$ layer and ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$. At $800^{\circ}C$, the coatings oxidized relatively slowly, and the scales were thin and adherent. When oxidized above $900^{\circ}C$, $TiO_2$ grew fast over the mixed oxide layer, and the oxide scale formed on TiAlSiN coatings was prone to spallation. Microstructural changes of the TiAlSiN coatings that occurred during high temperature oxidation were investigated by EPMA, XRD, SEM and TEM.

Ti-Al-N ($Ti_{75}$ $Al_{25}$ N) and Ti-Al-Si-N ($Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{8}$N) coatings synthesized by a DC magnetron sputtering technique were studied comparatively with respect to phase characterization and high-temperature oxidation behavior. $Ti_{69}$ $Al_{23}$ $Si_{ 8}$N coating had a nanocomposite microstructure consisting of nanosized(Ti,Al,Si)N crystallites and amorphous $Si_3$$N_4$, with smooth surface morphology. Ti-Al-N coating of which surface $Al_2$$O_3$ layer formed during oxidation suppressed further oxidation. It was sufficiently stable against oxidation up to about $700^{\circ}C$. Ti-Al-Si-N coating showed better oxidation resistance because both surface Ab03 and near-surface $SiO_2$ layers suppressed further oxidation. XRD, GDOES, XPS, and scratch tests were performed.

$Si_3N_4$ is a ceramic material attracting attention in many fields because of its excellent abrasion resistance. In addition, Ti and TiAl alloys are metals used in a variety of high temperature environments, and have attracted much attention because of their high strength and high melting points. Therefore, study of the interface reaction between $Si_3N_4/Ti$ and $Si_3N_4/TiAl$ can be a useful practice to identify phase selection and diffusion control. In this study, $Si_3N_4/Ti_5Si_3+TiN/TiN/Ti$ diffusing pairs were formed in the $Si_3N_4/Ti$ interfacial reaction and $Si_3N_4/TiN(Al)/Ti_3Al/TiAl$ diffusion pathway was identified in the $Si_3N_4/TiAl$ interfacial reaction. The diffusion layers of the interface reactions were identified and, to investigate the kinetics of the diffusion layer, the integrated diffusion coefficients were estimated.

5성분계 Ti-Al-Si-C-N 코팅막은 하이브리드 코팅 시스템을 사용하여 실리콘 (Si) 웨이퍼와 SUS 304 기판위에 합성되었다. 본 연구에서는 Si 첨가에 의해 Ti-Al-Si-C-N 코팅막의 미세구조와 기계적 특성의 변화를 체계적으로 조사하였다. Si 함량이 증가됨에 따라 Ti-Al-Si-C-N 코팅막의 미세구조는 주상정에서 나노복합체를 가지는 미세구조로 변화하였다. 나노복합체의 고유한 특성에 의하여 미소경도는 약 56GPa로 증가하였고, Si가 증가함에 따라 평균 마찰계수도 크게 줄어들었다.

In this study, the effect of the reinforcement on the wear behaviour and mechanical properties of hypereutectic Al-Si alloys was investigated. The Gas atomized hypereutectic Al-20Si alloy powders were mixed with 1, 3, and 5 wt.% AlN and TiC ceramic particles and consolidated by hotpress. The Al-20Si powder has both finely dispersed primary Si phases and eutectic structures. The Al-20Si-AlN, TiC composites showed that the reinforcements were distributed along the boundary of the Al-20Si alloy. The UTS increased with increasing the AlN, TiC contents. At a lower load, with an increasing weight fraction of reinforcements, the wear rate decreased in both composites and the wear mechanism was adhesive wear. At a higher load, the shape of the debris changes the mechanism of the AlN composites to abrasive-adhesion wear and this resulted in an increase of the wear rate.

음극아크증착과 스퍼터링을 동시에 사용한 하이브리드 공정으로 제조된 TiAlSiN 코팅층의 물성을 평가하였다. TiAlSiN 코팅층은 음극아크 소스에 Ti-Al 타겟을 장착하고 스퍼터링 소스에는 Si 타겟을 장착하여 아르곤과 질소 가스의 혼합가스 분위기에서 스테인리스(SUS304)와 초경(cemented carbide; WC-15wt.%Co) 기판 위에 제조되었다. 음극아크 소스에 인가되는 전류는 고정하고 스퍼터링 소스에 인가되는 전력을 조절하여 TiAlSiN 코팅층의 Si 함량을 제어하였다. TiAlSiN 코팅층의 Si 함량이 증가하면 코팅층의 구조가 주상정에서 비정질 구조로 변화한다. 이는 Si 함량이 증가하면 코팅층에 형성되는 알갱이 구조의 크기가 줄어들기 때문이다. X-선 회절 결과와 Scherrer's equation을 이용하여 Si 함량에 따른 알갱이 구조의 크기를 계산하면 Si이 없는 코팅층은 약 14 nm의 크기를 보이며 8 at.% 이상의 함량에서 약 2.5 nm로 포화된다. TiAlSiN 코팅층의 경도를 Si 함량에 따라 측정하면 Si 함량이 증가하면 경도도 증가하는 경향을 보이며 약 9 at.%의 Si 함량에서 3200 Hv로 최대가 되고 이후에는 감소한다. TiAlSiN이 코팅된 스테인리스 시편을 대기에서 열처리하고 시편 무게증가를 측정하여 코팅층의 내열성을 평가하였다. Si 함량이 증가하면 내열성도 향상되는데 14.4 at.%의 Si 함량에서 $700^{\circ}C$까지 무게 증가가 없으며 $900^{\circ}C$까지 0.43 mg의 증가를 보인다. 본 실험을 통해서 얻어진 TiAlSiN 코팅층은 비교적 높은 경도와 내열성을 확보하여 절상공구 보호막 코팅 소재 등으로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

TiCrAlSiN films were developed in order to improve the high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties of conventional TiN films that are widely used as hard films to protect and increase the lifetime and performance of cutting tools or die molds. In this study, a nano-multilayered TiAlCrSiN film was deposited by cathodic arc plasma deposition. It displayed relatively good oxidation resistance at $700-900^{\circ}C$, owing to the formation protective oxides of $Al_2O_3$, $Cr_2O_3$, and $SiO_2$, and semiprotective $TiO_2$. At $1000^{\circ}C$, the increased temperature led to the formation of the imperfect oxide scale that consisted primarily of the outer ($TiO_2$,$Al_2O_3$)-mixed scale and inner ($TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $Cr_2O_3$)-mixed scale.
