Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Mechanical and tribological characteristics of multicomponent nitride coverings on the basis of Zr, Ti, Nb, Cr and SiThe multi-component nitride coverings on the basis of (Zr-Ti-Nb)N, (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb)N and (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb-Si)N are received by the method of vacuum-arc deposition from multielement cathodes Zr-Ti-Nb, Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb, Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb-Si in the environment of nitrogen (N 2 ).The researches show that chemical composition, microstructure and mechanical and tribological characteristics of coverings are intimately bound to deposition parameters, in particular as: pressure of working gas and potential of shift on the substrate.It is defined that multi-component coverings (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb-Si)N and (Zr-Ti-Nb)N are simple face-centered cubic solid solution (FCC)).For coverings without Si the structure generally consists of the phase TiN (FCC) and trigonal modification Cr 2 N. The values of hardness were in the range (24-45 GPa).The coverings (Zr-Ti-Nb)N and (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb) of N provide the best adhesion strength in various conditions of a sliding friction.The coverings (Zr-Ti-Cr-Nb-Si)N showed the worst adhesion strength that is possible to explain with the relative low hardness.The data of coverings are submitted perspective as protective for couples of sliding friction and cutting instrument.
