P. Myslinski et al., Effects of TiN coating of iron detected by temperature modulated thermomagnetometry and dilatometry, J THERM ANA, 64(3), 2001, pp. 1201-1207
The aim of the present work is to find relation between the state of cerami
c coating of iron and the physical properties of coated samples as a functi
on of temperature. The iron samples coated by plasma assisted physical vapo
r deposition (PA PVD) with layers of TiN were investigated with new techniq
ue - temperature modulated thermomagnetometry (TM TMAG) and thermal dilatom
etry (TM DIL). From the irregular behavior of the thermal dilatation and ma
gnetic susceptibility, the process of the coating degradation can be resolv
ed.
