Abstract

Abstract A coated body consisting of a substrate that can be decarburized during a carbide, nitride or carbonitride coat­ing process comprising a first (innermost) carbon diffusion retarding coating of MetCO, MetCON, MetON adjacent to the substrate and a second (next innermost) wear resistant coat­ing of MetC, MetN and/or MetCN, where Met is Ti, Hf, V, Zr, Si, B or other metals of subgroup 3-7 of the periodic table of the elements, or a mixture thereof. The intermediate coating has been found beneficial in order to reduce or even eliminate the formation of eta phase in the substrate.
