Abstract
The presented investigations concern PVD/CVD surface treatment performed on samples of heat treated cast magnesium and aluminium alloys and properties modelling of obtained coatings using the finite element method (FEM). In order to identify the structure and fractures of the analysed surface coatings, investigations using the scanning electron microscope Zeiss Supra 35 were performed. Evaluation of the adhesion of the PVD/CVD coatings was carried out using a scratch test. The obtained coatings—Ti/Ti(C,N)-gradient/CrN; Ti/Ti(C,N)-gradient/(Ti,Al)N; Ti/(Ti,Si)N-gradient/(Ti,Si)N as well coatings: Cr/CrN-gradient/CrN; Cr/CrN-gradient/TiN and Ti/DLC-gradient/DLC are characterized by a clear heterogeneity of the surface associated with the presence of microparticles in the structure in form of droplets broken out of the target during the deposition process, as well immersions occurring in the surface due to the loss of some droplets during solidification. It was also found that the applied coatings are characterized with a mono-, di-, or multi-layer structure according to the applied layer system; the individual layers are applied uniformly and tightly adhere to the substrate and to each other. The obtained results of the numerical FEM analysis, have enabled a full integration of the material engineering knowledge and informatics tools, confirming compliance of the simulation model with the obtained experimental results.
