ZrTiCN is a transition metal carbonitride composite combining zirconium, titanium, carbon, and nitrogen—a hard ceramic compound that blends properties of both carbides and nitrides. This material family is primarily researched and developed for hard coating applications where extreme wear resistance and thermal stability are critical, competing with established alternatives like TiN and CrN coatings but offering potential advantages in adhesion and toughness at elevated temperatures.
