Regularities of phase composition, structure, and substructure in coatings of quasi-binary Ti—W—C system fabricated in non-equilibrium conditions from ion and plasma flows are studied. As shown, if phases with different warmth of formation (TiC with rather high warmth of formation 183.8 kJ/mol and WC with rather low warmth of formation of 37.7 kJ/mol) are used as components of quasi-binary system, then it makes possible to change phase structure from monocarbide stable to high temperatures to a multiphase state, which consists of phases of the lowest carbides. The increase of substrate temperature during deposition leads to the anisotropic growth of crystallites with prior growth along the direction of particles falling. With increase of TiC content with high binding energy, the average size of crystallites increases. At the same time, the high WC content allows to transfer a structural condition of a material to a nanolevel with a size of crystallites of 4—20 nanometers.
