Effect of furnace pressure on intensity of parts carburization in a gaseous atmosphere

Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Abstract

Gas carburizing in an endothermal, controlled atmosphere with the addition of natural gas is the standard chernicothermal treatment. The efficiency of the process is determined by its duration (which must be minimal for a given thickness of the layer) and the stability of the characteristics of the diffusion layer (carbon content and thickness). This paper deals with the intensity of parts carburization at different furnace pressures.
