Titanium Nitride Coating: What is,and How Does it Work?
Titanium Nitride (TiN) is a ceramic coating. It has a metallic gold color and is applied to metal surfaces using a vacuum. The coating is skinny—just a few microns—but tough.
TiN forms a strong outer layer that resists wear, heat, and corrosion. It sticks well to metals like steel, titanium, and carbide. This makes it useful for cutting tools, molds, and medical devices.
