Patent ID: 8309234

Claim:
A multilayer film-coated member fabricated by coating the surface of a substrate with at least two hard coating films having different compositions, which has at least a first composition hard coating film to be the outer layer of the member and a second composition hard coating film to be the inner layer thereof, and in which the first composition hard coating film represented by Si a B b N c C d O e with a+b+c+d+e=1, 0.1≦a≦0.5, 0.01≦b≦0.2, 0.05≦c≦0.6, 0.1≦d≦0.7 and 0<e≦0.2, the second composition hard coating film is a hard film having at least two selected from Al, Ti, Cr, Ni, Ce, Mg, Nb, W, Si, V, Zr and Mo and at least one selected from B, C, O and S and in X-ray photoelectric spectrometry (XPS) of the first composition hard coating film, Si—O bond and B—O bond are detected, the ratio of the peak area α of Si—C to the peak area β of Si—O, α/β, as obtained from the peak separation of the 2p orbit of Si, satisfies 10.0≦α/β≦20.0, and the ratio of the peak area X of B—O to the peak area Y of B—N, X/Y, as obtained from the peak separation of the 1s orbit of B, satisfies 5.0≦X/Y≦10.0.
