Abstract

One of the most important applications of surface engineering is producing a hard layer on the surface of a tough material to improve, e.g., wear resistance. Therefore, different types of thermochemical treatments are used to obtain good surface properties. Among these methods, nitriding is extensively used in industry. The base of this method is diffusion of atomic nitrogen into the surface of steel while it is in ferritic state.
