Commercially available carbon-based thin films consisting of single layers of amorphous diamond-like carbon or multilayers of crystalline TiAlN or CrN with diamond-like carbon top coatings were evaluated in relation to their electrochemical corrosion behavior in chloride ions containing electrolytes. The hardened working steel (an alloy of 0.9% C, 4.1% Cr, 4.9% Mo, 1.8% V, 6.4% W) was used as a substrate material.The potentiodynamic corrosion behavior of coated samples was tested in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution and Hank's balanced body solution, HBBS (0.89 wt.% NaCl, further chlorides, sulfates, carbonates and phosphates). The multi-layers TiAlN + a-C:H:W and CrN + a-C:H:W exhibited only a minor improvement in corrosion resistance. Single layers of amorphous diamond-like carbon coating without hydrogen (a-C) spall off during the corrosion tests in chloride containing media. A minor improvement of the corrosion resistance is possible. The a-C:H and the a-C:H:Si, which contain hydrogen, showed the best corrosion resistance with a 100 times lower corrosion current density.
