PVD coatings are a popular choice for many industries due to their durability and resistance to wear and corrosion.
Among the various PVD coatings, Titanium Nitride (TiN) stands out as the most widely used.
TiN is known for its exceptional hardness, durability, and resistance to corrosion and scratches.
These coatings are extremely thin, typically ranging from 0.25 microns to 5 microns.
They are produced using advanced vapor deposition technology in a vacuum environment.
5 Key Benefits of Titanium Nitride (TiN)
1. High Level of Control Over Coating Properties
PVD coatings offer a high level of control over the density, structure, and stoichiometry of the films.
This control allows for the desired attributes such as adhesion, lubricity, or hardness.
2. Reduced Friction and Damage Resistance
These coatings help reduce friction and act as a barrier against damage.
They significantly increase surface hardness, making them highly scratch resistant.
3. Wide Range of Applications
In addition to TiN, other materials can be used for PVD coatings, including aluminides, MCrAlYs, Al2O3, ZrO2, ZrN, CrN, TiCN, TiAlN, and diamond-like coatings (DLCs).
These coatings find applications in various industries, such as electronic circuitry, optics, plastics, gas turbine blades, and machine and press tools.
4. Continuous Expansion and Market Share
While CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) has certain advantages, PVD has been continuously expanding its range of coating materials.
PVD currently holds a significant market share in the tool market.
5. Durability and Color Options
Overall, PVD coatings, particularly TiN, are highly durable, scratch resistant, corrosion resistant, and offer a wide range of color options.
They are a valuable choice for various applications that require wear protection and improved surface properties.
