Production of carbon-nitrogen coatings modified by titanium nitride

We offer a method of producing composite coatings based on carbon-nitrogen compounds modified by titanium nitride clusters. The structure of the material obtained is studied by transmission electron microscopy. A comparison between electron diffraction patterns from carbon-nitrogen and titanium-nitride modified coatings reveals the presence of a hexagonal syngony in the carbon-nitrogen condensate. The mech-anism of the modification effect on the structure and properties of the obtained coating is discussed.
