Abstract
The process of deposition of coatings of titanium carbide, vanadium carbide, and chromium carbide on the surface of the tungsten-free hard alloys TN20, KNT16, and KKhN15 is investigated. The structure and phase composition of specially created layers are explored and the microhardness measured (11.5-24.5 GPa). The optimal temperature-time conditions for deposition of carbide coatings is determined. The ultimate transverse bending strength of hard alloys with and without coatings is determined. From the results of industrial tests, a two- to five-fold increase in the durability of plates in cutting was noted.
