In this work, for the first time, we applied and determined the mechanical characteristics of protective coatings made of high-entropy alloy (TiZrVCrAl)N with different architectures onto the surface of Ti-6Al-4V alloy with the initial coarse-grained and ultrafine-grained structure using arc physical vapor deposition. We designed and prepared three coating architectures: a monolayer nitride coating (TiZrVCrAl)N, a multilayer coating consisting of nine alternating layers of TiZrVCrAl and (TiZrVCrAl)N, and a multilayer coating consisting of 720 alternating layers of (TiZrVCrAl)N and TiN, with a total thickness not exceeding 2 microns. We evaluated their protective performances by nanoindentation and scratch tests. Importantly, the effect of the substrate microstructure on the coatings’ performance is investigated by comparing their mechanical behavior on coarse-grained and ultrafine-grained Ti-6Al-4V alloy surfaces.
