Investigation into Performance of Multilayer Composite Nano-Structured Cr-CrN-(Cr<sub>0.35</sub>Ti<sub>0.40</sub>Al<sub>0.25</sub>)N Coating for Metal Cutting Tools

This paper deals with the Cr-CrN-(Cr<sub>0.35</sub>Ti<sub>0.40</sub>Al<sub>0.25</sub>)N coating. It has a three-layered architecture with a nano-structured wear-resistant layer. The studies involved the investigation into the microstructure (with the use of SEM an...
