Kinetic Aspects of Formation of Carbonitride Layer

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The laws of formation and growth of carbonitride layer in steels 40G2, 38KhMA, 40KhN2MA, and 09GSF at a temperature of 560°C are studied. Metallographic methods are used to determine its composition, location and length. Equations for computing the lengths of the carbonitride phase and of the layer due to surface cyaniding are derived.
