      The objective of this work was to improve the tribocorrosion performance of biomedical grade 316LVM stainless steel via the application of duplex layered coatings. Two different PVD coatings were deposited via magnetron sputtering: (1) an underlying CoCrMo carbon S-phase layer followed by an outermost CrN layer designated as CrN/S and; (2) an underlying CrN layer followed by an outermost CoCrMo carbon S-phase designated as S/CrN. Tribocorrosion of the coated and uncoated 316LVM was studied against an alumina ball which was made to slide in a reciprocation motion in Ringer's solution. The contributions of wear, corrosion and their synergy were elucidated by performing tests under open circuit, cathodic and anodic potential conditions. The resultant wear scars were analysed via SEM, EDS, optical microscopy and contact profilometry. Both coatings displayed superior tribocorrosion response to AISI 316LVM with CrN/S exhibiting the best performance. CrN/S displayed lowest coefficient of friction under all electrochemical conditions (~0.10–0.15) and a material loss under anodic condition with a 93% decrease when compared to 316LVM. The CrN/S scars exhibited a smooth morphology under all test conditions in contrast with the other two test materials which displayed shearing marks oriented along the sliding direction under OCP and anodic conditions. By considering the resultant scar morphologies, a hypothesis is being proposed to explain the tribocorrosion degradation mechanisms encountered. ; peer-reviewed
