As a result metallographic investigations we have found that Cr2N-TiN coating has the best adhesion with a thickness of 2 to 5 microns, otherwise there is a violation of the integrity of the surface layer.As a result of electron microprobe analysis, it was found that the portion of titanium is prevalent in the coating.The method of quality X-ray analysis, which was conducted by setting the MSD 50 allowed to trace the distribution of chemical elements in the coating of TiN-Cr2N, the transition zone and the matrix, as well as to identify the inclusion of various kinds.The results of X-ray and micro X-ray spectral studies have shown that increasing the wear-resistant coatings TiN-Cr2N, established at the optimum value of thickness 4 microns, due to the presence of titanium and corrosion resistance - chrome.
