N. Vershinin et al., Corrosion behaviour of the protective and decorative TiN coatings on largearea steel strips, SURF COAT, 125(1-3), 2000, pp. 229-232
Decorative and protective TiN coatings were vacuum are deposited in an indu
strial installation 'Nikolay' allowing coating of strips with maximum size
2100 x 1300 x 8 mm. Titanium nitride (TiN) coatings on stainless steel stri
ps have been characterized in terms of microstructure and corrosion resista
nce. The vacuum are deposited TiN coatings have a higher corrosion resistan
ce compared with TiN coatings on steel produced by plasma assisted chemical
vapour deposition, glow discharge deposition, direct current magnetron spu
ttering or magnetron sputter deposition. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All
