Abstract
Hard coatings, in particular TiN, are widely used as coatings for cutting tools and in the agri-food industry. In the literature, however, few characterizations of hard coatings can be found which define the minimum applied load when the coating starts to fail. In the present study TiN coating was deposited on stainless steel X2CrNi18-9. Vickers and Brinell indentation tests with a wide load range were performed. The main results revealed that the increase of the applied load in Vickers and Brinell indentation influenced the coating and coating/substrate damage evolution. SEM investigation of the Vickers indentation area shows five modes of damage: inclined cracks, radial cracks, lateral cracks, edge cracks, and shear steps. Each damage mode occurs at a specific load range. Parallel cracks already appeared at the edges of the indents at the lowest load of 2 N. For Brinell indentation, cracks start in the coating only at loads higher than F = 307 N. The SEM examinations present damage modes such as circumferential cracks in the border and additional circular cracks in the center of the indent, creating a crack network. Numerical simulations of Brinell indentation were carried out in order to determine the stress distribution in the indent. The comparison of the numerical simulation results with the experimental findings revealed that the coating started to fail at a stress range above 5735 MPa which corresponds to a normal load range of higher than 307 N in Brinell indentation tests. At a load of 613 N cracks were observed.
