Production of PVD Coatings Based on Nb(CN)

Technology Benefits
-New combinations of hardness, toughness, and elastic properties to enable coatings with better performance in industrial tooling applications.-PVD is an established technique
Technology Application
Industrial cutting or forming tools.
Detailed Technology Description
None
*Abstract
Problem:Need for harder, tougher, and more elastic coatings for better performance in tool applications.Technology:This invention uses the traditional Physical Vapor Deposition method to create coatings from pure NbC, multilayer NbC/TiN and NbC particles distributed in a nickel matrix. All coatings are sputtered from pure compounds and cosputtering of NbC and nickel.
