[0005] Patent Document 1, although the film composed of a composite nitride containing at least two metal nitrides among nitrides of Cr, Ti, Al, and V is High hardness, excellent wear resistance, but insufficient seizing resistance, and not good enough for use in severe environments such as plastic processing with high surface pressure
In addition, the underlayer described in Patent Document 2 is formed with one or more of nitrides, carbides, and carbonitrides mainly composed of one or more metal elements selected from among Ti, V, Cr, Al, and Si. On the surface of the base layer, an outermost film mainly composed of Ti, V, Cr, Al, Si, and Cu is formed. Like the film described in Patent Document 1, it has high hardness and excellent wear resistance, but Poor burning resistance
In addition, although the coatings described in Patent Document 3 and Patent Document 4 are provided with a surface layer made of sulfide for improving seizing resistance, the sulfide is relatively soft and has excellent sliding properties at the beginning of use. A bit true, but it decays over time, long-term durability is an issue

Embodiment 1

[0095] Using a metal target composed of metal element M or a composite target composed of metal elements M and B, using figure 1 In the cathode discharge type arc ion plating apparatus shown, films having the respective compositions shown in Table 1 were formed on the substrate surface. In this Example 1, first, in order to confirm the composition of the coating and measure the hardness of the coating, a cemented carbide whose surface was mirror-polished was used as a substrate, and coatings of the compositions shown in Table 1 were formed on the surface. In addition, as a sliding test, an SKD11 substrate (hardness HRC60) was used as the base material. In order to improve the adhesion to the surface of the base material, after forming a CrN layer with a thickness of 3 μm, the surface of each layer shown in Table 1 was formed on the surface. composed of membranes.

[0096] Initially, these substrates were placed on the substrate platform of the arc ion plating device, and then...

Embodiment 2

[0117] As the metal element M, Ti is used as the metal target, the same as in Example 1, using such as figure 1 The cathode discharge type arc ion plating device shown makes the arc current, methane (CH 4 ) The partial pressure was varied as shown in Table 2, and a superhard alloy whose surface was mirror-polished was used as a base material, and a hard film was formed on the surface. Also, the arc evaporation source used, that is, the evaporation source, is figure 2 shown using evaporation source A, image 3 shown using evaporation source B, Figure 4 The three shown use evaporation source C. The substrate voltage during film formation was 200V.

[0118] Also, in Example 2, only Ar and methane (CH 4 ) gas, other experimental conditions follow the experimental conditions of embodiment 1 to carry out. Confirmation of the component composition of the film was analyzed by an electron beam microanalyzer (EPDA). The results of its analytical confirmation are shown in Table ...

Embodiment 3

[0128] The metal element M is W, and W composed of WC is used as a target 0.5 C 0.5 Target (hot pressed product ¢100mm), with figure 1 In the shown cathode discharge type arc ion plating apparatus, a hard film containing W is formed on the surface of the substrate.

[0129] As the conditions for forming a hard film containing W, the arc current was 150A, methane (CH 4 ) flow ratio at 0 to 30vol%, nitrogen (N 2 ) The flow rate ratio is changed between 0 and 30vol%, and then Ar is supplied into the vacuum container to adjust the total pressure to 1.33Pa. In the case of No. 15 to 17 with added B, supply B into the vacuum container 2 h 6 gas. The film forming temperature was 400°C, and the bias voltage was 100V.

[0130] The film thickness of the formed hard film containing W was 10 μm, and the crystal structure of this film was identified by X-ray diffraction. The conditions for X-ray diffraction were to use Cukα as a line source, and measure the region of 10° to 100° by ...

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to, for example, a hard film formed on the surface of a metal mold for metal forming, a jig for metal processing, etc., which has excellent sliding properties, and also relates to a method for forming the hard film. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, for metal molds for metal forming and jigs for metal processing, improvement of wear resistance and seizing resistance by nitriding treatment have been promoted. In recent years, instead of this nitriding treatment, improvement of wear resistance and seizing resistance has been studied by vapor phase coating such as PVD. [0003] For example, the technique described in Patent Document 1 is to form a film composed of a composite nitride containing at least two kinds of metal nitrides among nitrides of Cr, Ti, Al, and V to improve sliding properties. In addition, the techniques described in Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3 form one of nitrides, carbides, and c...
