Nitrocarburointi
Nitrocarburiing is a thermochemical surface hardening process used to improve the wear resistance and fatigue strength of steel components. It involves diffusing both nitrogen and carbon into the surface layer of the metal simultaneously. This process is typically carried out at elevated temperatures, usually between 500°C and 570°C, in a controlled atmosphere. The atmosphere is rich in nitrogen and carbon-containing gases, such as ammonia and hydrocarbon derivatives.
The diffusion of nitrogen and carbon creates a compound layer on the surface, which is very hard
Nitrocarburiing is often performed in gas furnaces, salt baths, or plasma environments. The specific parameters, such
Benefits of nitrocarburiing include enhanced wear resistance against abrasion and adhesion, improved fatigue life, and increased
