Patent ID: 10737332

Abstract:
Provided is a coated cutting tool comprising a substrate and a coating layer formed on a surface of the substrate. The coating layer includes an alternating laminate structure of an alternating laminate of: a first composite nitride layer including a compound having a composition represented by (TixAl1-x)N (wherein x denotes an atomic ratio of the Ti element based on a total of the Ti element and the Al element and satisfies 0.10≤x≤0.35); and a second composite nitride layer including a compound having a composition represented by (TiyAlzM1-y-z)N (wherein: M denotes an element of at least one kind selected from Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W, Si and Y; y satisfies 0.30≤y≤0.90; z satisfies 0.10≤z≤0.70; and y and z satisfy y+z≤1). The first composite nitride layer includes a phase having a lattice constant of from 0.400 nm or more to 0.430 nm or less and a phase having a lattice constant of from 0.755 nm or more to 0.810 nm or less.
