The poor wear resistance of carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) causes severe problems if the material is subjected to solid particle erosion. To overcome this problem, erosion resistant magnetron sputtered PVD coatings were deposited on CFRP substrates. Different 30µm thick metallic (Ti, Al, Cr) and multilayer (Ti/TiN) coatings were analysed in order to investigate the influence of the coating...
Carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRPs) are intensively used in aerospace applications due to their good strength to weight ratio. However, when subjected to solid particle erosion, wear rates of CFRP are more than one order of magnitude higher than steel. Protective coatings produced by physical vapour deposition (PVD) can increase the lifetime of CFRP components. In this work magnetron sputtering...
