nitride coatings are considered as a suitable option for tribological coatings due to their high hardness and chemical stability, and their abrasion resistance is generally assessed by pin-disc method. In this paper, the evaluation of the corrosion of physical vapor deposition coatings with solid particles and the relationship between this method and the results of the test of pin on the disk is considered. For this purpose, the TiN-CrN / TiN-TiAlN / TiAlCrSiCN multilayer nanostructure coating on 420 stainless steels was deposited by industrial process of cathodic arc furnace vapor deposition, and the samples were characterized by structural and The chemical composition was tested under abrasion tests (disks) and erosion (solid particles). The physical vapor deposition coating in the 1 N abrasion test improved the abrasion resistance of the steel substrate. In the erosion test due to the interaction of silica particles, it was found that the coated sample has a lower erosion rate than the substrate compared with hardened steel at low collision angles and shows better wear resistance. The roughness of the wear surface was obtained at a collision angle of 90 degrees, with silica particles 1.5 times higher than the angle of collision of 30 degrees. According to the overall findings of this study, it can be concluded that nitride nanostructured coating shows a high abrasive resistance in a bullet test on disk, but in an abrasive particle test, it only experiences high erosion at low angles.
