“…Nanoindentation results correlate with the WDS analysis, because mechanical properties increase with Al content and reach a maximum value at 43-44 at. % of Al, close to the results reported by other groups [25,36]. Moreover, the deterioration of mechanical properties with the increase in nitrogen content can be related to the achievement of saturation level due to higher nitrogen pressure leading to excess of nitrogen in the interstitial sites [37].…”

“…TiN is the most studied and used coating system for its high hardness, low coefficient of friction, and good adhesion to the substrates. However, its rapid oxidation starting at 550 °C limits the application in high speed machining [7,8]. TiCN coatings are known for their self-lubricating property and the particular low coefficient of friction [9][10][11][12].…”

“…TiAlN is also a widely applied system. The addition of Al increases coating hardness significantly [8,13]. Moreover, the formation of dense Al2O3 layer at high temperature effectively prevents the inward diffusion of oxygen, and also enhances the hot hardness and chemical stability of coatings [14,15].…”

“…The hardness of the TiAlN coating should increase with an increasing negative substrate bias due to the increasing Al content; however, there is an optimum Al content that can enhance the TiAlN hardness [12]. The hardness increases with an increasing Al concentration and reaches a maximum value at an Al concentration of 50 mol% [13]. A further increase in the Al content causes the hardness to decrease rapidly due to the appearance of the B4 structure (hexagonal structure).…”
