Description of Chromium Nitride Powder
Chromium Nitride (CrN) powder is a gray, hard ceramic material known for its excellent wear resistance and high hardness, typically around 1400-1800 HV. It has good thermal stability, corrosion resistance, and can withstand oxidation at high temperatures. CrN powder is often used in coatings for cutting tools, improving their durability and reducing friction. It’s also applied in protective coatings for aerospace and automotive parts that endure harsh environments. Additionally, it finds use in surface engineering and biomedical devices due to its chemical inertness and biocompatibility.

Reference
- Nitrides of transition metals have good wear- and corrosion-resistant properties because of their high hardness and chemical stability. Chromium-nitride coatings can be deposited by ion plating; however, the thin thickness due to the slow deposition rate must be improved for severe wear-resistant applications. The main objective in this paper is to realize good structural control in the processing of chromiumnitride in situ composite coatings formed at a high deposition rate. They were synthesized by reactive low-pressure plasma spraying using elemental chromium powder as a spray material. The transferred arc between the gun electrode and the substrate was used to accelerate the nitriding reaction. The sprayed coatings consist of chromium, Cr2N, and CrN, which have a composition gradient from the substrate interface to the surface.
