This resistance is evident for example from course of friction coefficient, which does not show strong deviation of friction coefficient values. By AlTiN and TiAlSiN layers is wear of "PIN" ball covered by transfer layer . 3/18 Matrib 2005
University of West Bohemia in Pilsen Transfer layer ransfer layer T This layer inhibits contact of "PIN" ball with surface of thin layer. These layers are strongly adhesively connected with the ball surface. By CrAlSiN layer this phenomenon did not arise. Depends on the type of thin layer and on conditions load /frictional speed. Layer sticks (adheres) on ceramics during friction and forms on it a transfer film influences the results. Most important factors: adhesion TiAlSiN and friction between surfaces (important is toughness of the layer). Adhesion is influenced by presence of impurities. AlTiN CrAlSiN 4/18 Matrib 2005

University of West Bohemia in Pilsen Layer AlTiN Layer AlTiN T= 500°C, 700°C, F= 2N, 3 500 cycles At 500°C there are evident two increases of friction coefficient values. Friction coefficient at 700°C is stationary. Higher friction coefficient at 500°C is probably caused by adhesive wear. During this test the oxidation of wear debris creates compact unit - glaze. It is probable that the time to the glaze creation is connected with increasing friction coefficient. After its creation only slight wear appears. This claim confirms the fact, that the wear of "PIN" ball is very low. At 700°C is friction coefficient influenced by thick oxidised film, whose plasticity at 700°C is lower than at 500°C, which may result in decrease of friction coefficient. 7/18 Matrib 2005

At 500°C only very small a) T= 500°C with marked area of “ plastic flow of the layer“ b) T= 700°C wear of “PIN” ball appeared. Spot, which was created on the “PIN” ball at 700°C, had irregular shape. At its margin of the spot is caught small debris from the layer. Wear of „PIN“ ball: a) T= 500°C, b) T= 700° 8/18 Matrib 2005
University of West Bohemia in Pilsen Layer TiAlSi AlSiN N Layer Ti Courses of friction coefficients, T= 500°C, 700°C, F= 2N Friction coefficient also in this case was higher at 500°C than at 700°C. At 500°C happens similar phenomenon as in the case of layers AlTiN (creation of "glaze"), but in case of TiAlSiN there is no such a high ploughing of “PIN” ball in the thin layer. This documents the SEM analysis. It is possible to think, that even microhardness of thin layer TiAlSiN is at these temperatures higher than microhardness of AlTiN layer. At thermal stress of 700°C there is frequent failure of oxidised film, thereby “PIN” ball gets in the contact with thin layer and marked deviation of friction coefficient follows. 9/18 Matrib 2005

Track is created by debris from damaged thin layer and from oxidised film. This oxidised film is very fast adhesively connected with TiAlSiN layer. 10/18 Matrib 2005

However differences between friction coefficients are smaller than by other layers. During thermal exposition of CrAlSiN layer creates on its surface highly efficient oxidised protective layer Cr-Al-O, which prevents further oxidation of the layer. 12/18 Matrib 2005
