It is shown that, in the course of mechanical pulsed treatment of steel with the use of 10% aqueous solution of aminil, the surface layers are saturated with nitrogen. This leads to the increase in the microhardness of hardened layer up to 12 GPa. As a result, the wear resistance of the friction couple becomes 1.6–1.8 times higher and the corrosion resistance of steel (according to its corrosion rate and depth index) also increases.
