Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hard metal body, in particular a hard metal cutting tool, with a coating based on carbides and / or nitrides of elements from IV.
  • Such tools are used primarily in the machining of materials, in particular metalworking.
  • Use A large number of coated hard metal bodies with a base body and mostly multi-layer coatings are known, but there is always the endeavor to achieve high cutting speeds with as little wear as possible and also to have a tool available which can also withstand high mechanical stresses, such as those with an interrupted one Occur cut, withstands. All efforts are aimed at still increasing the service life of the tools and the ease of machining. So z. B.
  • such phenomena should be reduced if care is taken to ensure that oxygen introduction is avoided at least in certain areas of the base body coating by first providing the base body with a carbide-nitride or carbonitride layer, Then diffusion from the substrate into the layer or vice versa takes place, which is followed by a highly wear-resistant coating with oxide. Before this oxidic layer is applied, the intermediate coating can be oxidized from the outside in order to improve the adhesion, but only in a layer thickness that does not reach the substrate.
  • a multi-layer coating is also known from EU-A-0 083 842, in which a binding layer made of carbide or oxycarbide compounds is oxidized on the surface and bears an oxidic wear layer.
  • the surface oxidation of the binding layer is intended to improve the adhesive strength of the oxidic outer layer, an intermediate layer between the binding layer and the substrate also being proposed.
  • Such bodies can admittedly have a wear layer adhering firmly to the binding layer, in the binding layer itself or in the zones on the substrate surface, brittle layers arise in particular as a result of the oxygen diffusion when subjected to thermal stress, which layers adversely affect the performance properties of the tools.
  • a coating is made known which is formed from homogeneous individual layers with an alternating composition, whereby the thermal stresses are to be reduced and the wear resistance is to be increased. If the individual layers are applied alternately with up to seven intermediate layers, flaking of the coating can occur in practical use due to the resulting stress.
  • Patent Abstracts of Japan, unexamined applications, Field C, Volume 6, No. 186, September 22, 1982; The Patent Office Japanese Government, page 7 C 126; Kokai no. 57-98 670 (Sumitomo) has become known a cutting tool made of coated hard metal, in which one or more titanium compounds are applied to a substrate, on which there is an outer layer made of A1 2 0 3 .
  • the titanium compound (s) consists of a titanium oxide, the oxygen being partially replaced by carbon and nitrogen. At higher working temperatures, in particular due to oxygen diffusion, intermediate layers of this type lead to brittle layer regions which favor the chipping of the cover layer, in particular on the substrate, as a result of which the service life of the tool is reduced.
  • the invention relates to a hard metal body, in particular a hard metal cutting tool, of the type mentioned at the outset, which is characterized in that a first coating formed from one or more layers with at least one 0.1 to 2.5 atom% is formed directly on the substrate of the basic body.
  • the above-mentioned inclusions have at least substantial proportions of metal boride.
  • the body can optionally be heat treated and / or compacted.
  • the oxycarbide, carbonitride or nitride - particularly preferred oxycarbonitride - of the first coating has an aluminum content of 0.5 to 2 atomic% and an oxygen content of 1 to 5 atomic%, this is particularly reliable adhesion guaranteed both coatings, it should be noted that even with zirconium oxide-containing second coating aluminum alone is able to bring the beneficial effect.
  • the first coating has two or more layers of oxycarbide, oxycarbonitride or oxynitride, preferably oxycarbonitride, at least one of the above-mentioned elements, the aluminum content of the individual layers being one of them directly on the substrate bordering layer is rising away to the outside.
  • the oxygen content with concentrations of 0.1 to 8 atom%, preferably 1 to 5 atom%, of the oxycarbide, oxycarbonitride or oxynitride layer (s) of the first coating has no adverse effect.
  • the first coating comprises two or more layers with an oxycarbide or oxycarbonitride or oxynitride, preferably has oxycarbonitride, at least one of the above-mentioned elements, the oxygen content of the individual layers increasing outwards from the layer directly adjacent to the substrate, with even better operating behavior being achievable if the oxygen content in the first coating is different layer directly adjacent to the substrate, preferably substantially linearly increasing. Very thin individual layers can also be present, so that the increase is practically continuous.
  • the oxidic coating it is advantageous if it or at least some of its layers have or have zirconium of 1 to 20% by weight, preferably 2 to 15% by weight.
  • the second coating has two or more oxide layers
  • the zirconium content of the individual layers increasing outwards from a layer which may be zirconium-free and which immediately adjoins the first coating, can be removed among others estimate the abrasion on the surfaces subject to wear and thus the remaining tool life, whereby an essentially linear - gradual or continuous - increase in the zirconium content is particularly favorable in this respect.
  • unintentional downtimes can be largely avoided.
  • the doping of the first coating or of its layers with aluminum itself has a stabilizing effect, so that the presence of zirconium is not urgent per se, the oxidic layer of the second coating immediately adjacent to the first coating can therefore also have a zirconium-free layer with aluminum oxide.
  • a further substantial increase in wear resistance can be achieved if the boride-containing inclusions provided in the second coating are those with aluminum and / or zirconium boride.
  • a particularly intimate yet improved bond between the individual layers of the coatings can be achieved in particular by heat treatment or by means of hot pressing to be advantageously provided.
  • a body according to the invention is therefore particularly preferred if the substrate and layer (s) of the first and second coating each have diffusion zones with one another.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing hard metal bodies, in particular cutting tool bodies, as described so far, the body optionally being subjected to heat or heat treatment, preferably thermal diffusion treatment, in particular at temperatures from 900 to 1600 ° C., preferably from 1100 to 1500 ° C. and / or a post-compression process, preferably an isostatic hot pressing, in particular at pressures of 500 to 2500 bar.
  • heat or heat treatment preferably thermal diffusion treatment, in particular at temperatures from 900 to 1600 ° C., preferably from 1100 to 1500 ° C. and / or a post-compression process, preferably an isostatic hot pressing, in particular at pressures of 500 to 2500 bar.
  • Cuts made of hard metal (85% WC, 9.5% TiC + TaC, 5.5% Co) are heated in a furnace under protective gas or vacuum to a temperature of 1000 ° C, and then for 60 minutes with a gas mixture with 5 % TiCl 4 , 80% H 2 , 5% N 2 , 5% CH 4 and 5% CO treated. Then the gas mixture AICI 3 is mixed in amounts of 0.5% (test series 1a) and 1% (test series 1b) with small amounts of CO (2% each) based on AICI 3 .
  • the total pressure in the furnace is 150 mbar during the treatments. After a treatment period of 210 minutes, an approximately 3 ⁇ m thick, completely dense oxycarbonitride layer was formed, which, in each case on average in the case of the test series 1a with 0.5 atom% AI and in those of the test series 1 with 1.4 Atom% AI was doped.
  • Cuts made of hard metal (91% WC, 2.5% TiC + TaC, 6.5% Co) are heated in an oven under protective gas or vacuum to a temperature of 1000 ° C and then for 40 minutes with a gas mixture with 8% TiCl 4, 2% ZrCl4, 70% hydrogen, 15% N 2 and 5% C0 2 initially (experiment A) treated. Thereafter is replaced at intervals of 10 min each for 5 min the TiC1 4 by AICI 3 and continuously 2 content of the C0 2 content is increased from 5 to 15% under the corresponding reduction of the H.
  • the total pressure in the furnace during this treatment is 650 mbar. After 90 minutes there was an approximately 2.5 ⁇ m thick oxynitride layer in which the Al content was 0.9 atomic% on average and the oxygen content from the substrate to the outside from 0.5 to 3.5 atoms -% increase, trained.
  • test series 2a and 2b were maintained.
  • the coated material obtained contained no aluminum in its hard material layer.
  • Cuts made of hard metal (79% WC, 10% TiC + TaC, 11% Co) are heated in a furnace under protective gas or vacuum to a temperature of 1020 ° C, and then for 90 minutes with a gas mixture with 5% TiCl 4 , Treated 70% H 2 and 25% CH 4 .
  • the working pressure in the furnace is 200 mbar.
  • the temperature is then increased to 1050 ° C. and at a working pressure of 150 mbar, 5% AICI 3 and 5% CO 2 are then added alternately for 5 minutes to the gas mixture for 120 minutes, each time with a corresponding reduction in the hydrogen content.
  • test series 3a After a total duration of 150 min, a coating was formed in test series 3a which had an Al content of 1.5 atom% AI and 6 atom% oxygen enriched against the outer surface, while Al and the oxygen were close to the substrate -Content below 0.1 atom%.
  • Cutting bodies according to the preceding examples and test series are treated in a gas mixture with 10% AICI 3 , 80% H 2 , 5% CO 2 and 5% ZrCl 4 for 120 min at a temperature of 1020 ° C, during which period at regular intervals of 8 min the proportion of CO 2 is reduced in each case for 2 minutes and replaced by BCl 3 .
  • Oxidic coatings are formed on the cutting bodies, which have embedded borides of aluminum or zirconium.
  • Cutting bodies according to the preceding examples and test series are treated in a gas mixture with initially 10% AlCl 3 , 70% hydrogen, 12% CO 2 , 5% ZrCl 4 and 3% HCl at 1030 ° C and a working pressure of 200 mbar in such a way that the AlCl 3 content is continuously reduced to 60% of the initial value over a period of 150 min and at the same time the ZrCl 4 content is increased accordingly, so that the total AlCl 3 + ZrCl 4 remains constant.
