Mechanical-and-physical properties’ research of resistant vacuum coatings and films on a special precision equipment
Research technique of mechanical-and-physical properties of resistant vacuum coatings and films on a special precision equipment are considered. KaloMAX NT II equipment of the company «BAQ GmbH», Germany is demonstrated. It is used for wearing and coating thickness tests, besides for test of coating layers with micron-accurate and kaloSOFT program. Scratch tester equipment of Nanovea system was applied for determining of adhesion, strains, peeling by scoring, investigation of fracture mode, microhardness of layers and coatings.
