Residual stresses resulted from carburizing and quenching were measured dy the etching method, using plate specimens of two kinds of steels. The microstructure after quenching is likely to include retained austenite due to high carbon content of the carburized layer, which may decompose into martensite in time at room temperature. To investigate the effect of aging on the distribution of residu...

The results of modifying the surface austenitic stainless steel by anodic plasma electrolytic treatment are presented. Surface was carried out in aqueous electrolytes based on ammonium chloride (10%) with addition ammonia (5%) as a source nitrogen (for nitriding), boric acid (3%) boron boriding) or glycerin carbon carburizing). Morphology, roughness, phase composition and microhardness diffusio...

This paper investigates the evolution of microstructure 17CrNiMo6 steel produced by carburizing and quenching through computer-aided engineering (CAE) experimental study. The chemical composition, microstructure, properties vary from surface to core during quenching, which makes CAE simulation temperature field more complex. performance–temperature performance–microstructure iterations using di...
