چکیده
M. Ogórek, Z. Skuza, T. Frączek, Czestochowa University of Technology, Czestochowa, Poland The study examined layers were formed on the outer surface of austenitic stainless steel 304 under glow discharge conditions in the low-temperature and short-term ion nitriding. The outer layers analyzed in the work produced in parallel in the classical process of cathode and a novel method of “active screen”, intensifying the process of nitriding.

Paper presents the research of austenitic steel AISI 304after ion nitriding at 400◦C and at t =4h, for the two different variants of samples distribution in the working plasma reactive chamber tube. In order to assess the effectiveness of ion nitriding variants emission spectroscopy – GDOES, surface hardness tests, microstructure research (LM) of nitrided layers were made. It has been found tha...
متن کاملSome Consideration on Double Layer Structure in Plasma Assisted Nitriding of Austenitic Stainless Steel
Low temperature plasma assisted nit riding treatments of 316 stainless steel produce a complex layer constituted by tow different metastable f.c.c. solid solution denoted ( γ N1 and γ N2 ). About the formation of these double layers, different hypothesis was proposed in the literature. For verifying these hypotheses, the effects of differentes conditions such as nit riding temperature, cleaning...
متن کاملAn investigation on the passivation behavior of nitrogen enriched AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel
In the present work the effects of plasma nitridization on the passivation behavior of AISI 316L was investigated. To do this; nitriding treatments were carried out at 420°C for 1, 2, 4 and 16 hours. The phase composition and structure of the nitrided layer were studied by Low Angle X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The hardness of samples also was evaluated by Vickers microha...
متن کاملSimulation , optimization and development of thermo - chemical diffusion processes by Yingying Wei
An alternative, subcritical-temperature austenitic nitriding process is evaluated in this paper with the purpose of accelerating the treatment cycle, optimizing the hardness gradient in nitrided layers and seeking improved process control. Comparing to the conventional nitriding processed at ferritic temperature and followed by slow cooling, the alternative process includes nitriding at elevate...
متن کاملThe effect of surface mechanical attrition treatment on low temperature plasma nitriding of an austenitic stainless steel
The combined effect of superficial nanocrystallisation by SMAT (Surface Mechanical Attrition Treatment) followed by plasma nitriding on the mechanical properties of a medical grade austenitic stainless steel was studied. SMAT conditions were optimised to enhance nitrogen diffusion. Experimental observations (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy profiles, cross-sectional optical micrographs, pha...
