（Ti,Al）N Film on Normalized T8 Carbon Tool Steel Prepared by Pulsed High Energy Density Plasma Technique

Under optimized operating parameters, a hard and wear resistant （Ti,Al）N film is prepared on a normalized T8 carbon tool steel substrate by using pulsed high energy density plasma technique. Microstructure and composition of the film are analysed by x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Hardness profile and tribological properties of the film are tested with nano- indenter and ring-on-ring wear tester, respectively. The tested results show that the microstructure of the film is dense ahd uniform and is mainly composed of （Ti,Al）N and A1N hard phases. A wide transition interface exists between the film and the normalized T8 carbon tool steel substrate. Thickness of the film is about lO00nm and mean hardness value of the film is about 26 GPa. Under dry sliding wear test conditions, relative wear resistance of the （Ti, Al）N film is approximately 9 times higher than that of the hardened T8 carbon tool steel reference sample. Meanwhile, the （Ti,Al）N film has low and stable friction coefficient compared with the hardened T8 carbon tool steel reference sample.     

Influence of ion species ratio on grid-enhanced plasma source ion implantation

Grid-enhanced plasma source ion implantation (GEPSII) is a newly proposed technique to modify the inner-surface properties of a cylindrical bore. In this paper, a two-ion fluid model describing nitrogen molecular ions N_2^+ and atomic ions N^+ is used to investigate the ion sheath dynamics between the grid electrode and the inner surface of a cylindrical bore during the GEPSII process, which is an extension of our previous calculations in which only N_2^+ was considered. Calculations are concentrated on the results of ion dose and impact energy on the target for different ion species ratios in the core plasma. The calculated results show that more atomic ions N^+ in the core plasma can raise the ion impact energy and reduce the ion dose on the target.

Properties of TiN coating on 45# steel for inner surface modification by grid-enhanced plasma source ion implantation method

Using a new inner surface modification method named GEPSII (grid-enhanced plasma source ion implantation), which is designed for inner surface modification of tubular work pieces, we successfully produced polycrystalline TiN coating on 0.45% C steel (45^# steel) samples. Compared with the uncoated 45^# steel sample, the electrochemical corrosion test on the coated 45^# steel samples presents evident improvement in their corrosion resistance. Two implanted voltages, direct current (－2kV) and pulsed negative voltage (－10kV), are applied on the substrates. It is shown that the direct current implantation is more effective than the pulsed implantation in the surface corrosion resistance. AES depth profile shows that coating thickness is about tens of nanometres. The preferred orientations expressed by peaks at (111) and (200) can be seen clearly in XRD patterns.
