High-entropy (CrNbSiTiZr)Cxcoatings were successfully fabricated by reactive radio-frequency magnetron sputtering using an equimolar CrNbSiTiZr alloy target under CH4-containing Ar flow. The effect of the CH4flow ratio on the chemical composition, microstructure, mechanical and tribological properties of (CrNbSiTiZr)Cxcoatings was investigated. The carbon content in the coatings varied from 36.7 at% to 87.8 at% with an increasing CH4flow ratio from 3% to 20%. The (CrNbSiTiZr)Cxcoatings revealed a simple NaCl-type FCC (face-centered cubic) structure. The maximum hardness of 32 GPa was obtained at the carbon content of 36.7 at% by applying substrate bias of −100 V. On the other hand, the coating with high carbon content of 87.8 at% possessed superior wear resistance, which friction coefficient and wear rate were, respectively, 0.07 and 2.0 × 10−7mm3/N·m.
