Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical vapor deposition technology, and more particularly to a chemical vapor deposition method for reducing product deformation rate. Background Technology

[0002] Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) coating is a coating technology with high hardness and good wear resistance, widely used in cutting tools, molds, and other fields. However, CVD treatment requires high temperatures, typically around 1000℃, exceeding the austenitic transformation temperature of most alloy tool and die steels. Therefore, during the coating process, tool and die steel parts re-enter the austenitic state, and the parts need to be cooled to lower temperatures after CVD, resulting in annealing. Their microstructure is usually in a pearlitic state, which cannot meet the mechanical performance requirements of mold products. Therefore, CVD-coated parts usually require re-heat treatment to obtain the desired mechanical properties. However, repeated heat treatment leads to significant heat treatment deformation, affecting the dimensional accuracy of the product. Generally, the deformation rate of tool and die steel parts after CVD coating and heat treatment is about 0.1%-0.2%, which cannot meet the precision requirements of high-precision products. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a technology that can effectively reduce heat treatment deformation of CVD-coated products to improve product accuracy. Summary of the Invention
