Seramik Karoların Altın Dekorasyonunda Katodik Ark- FBB TiN Kaplama Proses Parametrelerinin Optimizasyonu

Bu çalışmada, seramik karo yüzeyinde dekoratif altın renginde TiN kaplamalar üretmek için Katodik ArkFBB proses parametrelerinin optimizasyonu amaçlanmıştır. Kaplama ünitesinde; altlık malzemesi olaraksırlı seramik karolar, katot olarak saf Ti diskler ve reaktif gaz olarak da nitrojen (N2) kullanılmıştır.Kaplama işlemi; sabit biriktirme süresinde (90 sn), katod akımı (100-150-200A) ve N2 akış oranı (550-650-750 sccm) değiştirilerek gerçekleştirilmiştir. Üretilen kaplamaların L*a*b* renk parametrelerispektrafotometre ile ölçülmüş ve ticari TiN kaplamaların L*a*b* değerleri ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Sonuçolarak, TiN stokiyometrisine yakın olduğu düşünülen proses parametreleri ile (550 sccm-150 A ve 650sccm-200 A) ticari TiN kaplamalara benzer altın renginde kaplamalar üretilmiştir.

Optimization of Cathodic Arc-PVD TiN Coating Process Parameters on the Gold-like Decoration of Ceramic Tiles

In this study, the optimization of Cathodic Arc PVD process parameters to obtain gold-like colour TiN coating for ceramic tile decoration was aimed. Glazed ceramic tiles as substrate, pure Ti discs as cathode and nitrogen (N2) as reactive gas were used in the coating unit. Coating trials were performed at constant deposition time (90 s) and varying cathode currents (100-150-200 A) and N2 gas flow rate (550-650-750 sccm). L*a*b* colour parameters were measured by spectrofotometer and compared with that of commercial TiN coatings. It was observed that, processing conditions that are considered to be close to obtaining stoichiometric TiN (550 sccm-150 A and 650 sccm-200 A) resulted in gold-like coloured TiN coating, similar to commercial ones.
