Surface modification of stainless steels by carbon/nitrogen implantation

  • Published:
Czechoslovak Journal of Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Plasma immersion ion implantation has been used for simultaneous implantation of carbon and nitrogen into austenitic, ferritic, and duplex stainless steels at 400°C for 3 h. The surface phase composition, studied by means of Conversion Electron Mössbauer Spectroscopy and X-Ray difraction, is correlated with the mechanical properties represented by hardness (Vickers) measurements. The results extend information about the expanded austenite phase formed during the low temperature modification of stainless steel surface by nitrogen.
