In this study the effects on resistance to corrosion of a low alloy steel after plasma nitriding has been reported. Nitriding was performed at temperature 450 °C and also 520 for same duration 10 h in nitrogen hydrogen (80:20) gas mixture. Sample holder biased −250 V working pressure kept around 500 Pa. After samples along with bare were exposed X-ray diffraction (XRD) understand phase formatio...

Nitriding is a technology that leads to an increase in the utility value of product. It’s most im-portant benefits include increased corrosion resistance, abrasion wear resistance fatigue failure under cyclic loading, and many others. The design suitable nitriding not only on basis empirics requires closer study relationship between structure layer, its properties course particular degrad...

Surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT) is an effective method to accelerate the nitriding process of metallic materials. In this work, a novel technique named surface nano-alloying (SNA) was developed on the basis of surface mechanical attrition treatment, which was employed as a pretreatment for the nitriding of low carbon steel materials. The microstructure and surface properties of tr...
