Yttrium-doped ZrO2 coatings are well-known to protect metallic tools and injection molds from wear and corrosion. This material is a highly anti-corrosive and wear resistant ceramic. It is particularly suitable for coating steel substrates, because their thermal expansion coefficient and mechanical properties are similar. We used a mixture of metal acetylacetonates in a 3D conformal aerosol-assisted chemical vapor deposition process. These precursors decompose at low temperatures (<500∘C) and, thus, allow the deposition of layers into narrow cracks and holes without corroding or mechanically harming the steel substrates. We deposited films with excellent adhesion and wear properties at a nearly constant coating rate in aspect ratios up to 1:50 in 0.1 mm thin columns.
