Abstract

Multilayer CrN/ZrN coatings deposited by the vacuum-arc method were subjected to thermal cycling in a furnace. The change in surface roughness of the coatings was studied using laser scanning confocal microscopy. Additional research was carried out using synchrotron radiation in asymmetric mode to detect the effect of thermal cycling on coating degradation. An analysis of the experimental data showed that the deposited coatings gradually degraded as the number of heating cycles increased. It should be noted that coatings obtained at substrate holder speeds of 5 and 8 rpm are more resistant to this type of impact than those obtained at speeds of 0.5 and 3.5 rpm. It is also noted that holding for 10 cycles has practically no effect on the phase state of the coatings. X-ray diffraction patterns showed the presence of β-Zr phase in the samples obtained at a substrate holder rotation speed of 5 and 8 rpm, which affected their thermal stability. However, after 40 cycles, the CoWO4 phase was detected in the coatings, which indicates the oxidation of the substrate and the loss of the protective functions of the coatings.
