Nanoindentation Study of Superhard Tisin, Diamond-Like Carbon (Dlc), and Tisin/DLC Hybrid Coatings on Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tools
Abstract:The nanoindentation technique has emerged as a powerful method for precisely assessing the mechanical properties of materials such as hardness and modulus at the nanoscale. This paper elaborates the capabilities of nanoindentation to determine the intrinsic mechanical properties, particularly hardness and elastic modulus of advanced coatings TiSiN, DLC, and a novel TiSiN/DLC hybrid coating on tungsten carbide cutting tools. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed unique peak orientations for each coating, wi… Show more
