An Emerging Tool for Pioneering Engineers Co-published by the International Federation of
Heat Treatment and Surface Engineering. Thermal processing is a highly precise science …

Wear behavior of quenched-tempered AISI M2 tool steel samples has been studied after
plasma nitriding at different N 2–H 2 plasma gas flows containing 25, 50 and 75 sccm N 2 …

The nitriding behavior of AISI M2 steel was studied on samples previously submitted to two
different heat treatments in order to investigate the effects of the initial microstructure on the …

L'éco-conception est, depuis peu, une nouvelle problématique, que l'entreprise pourrait bien
prendre en compte pour en tirer, à terme, un avantage concurrentiel. C'est concevoir des …

Phase transformations during nitriding of a ternary carbon iron-based alloy Fe–3% Cr–
0.345% C were studied, aiming for a better understanding of residual stresses generation …

The current study focused on the surface integrity issues associated with broaching of
Inconel 718 and the structural stability of the broached specimen at high temperatures …

In this work, as-received and shot-peened SAF 2507 duplex stainless steel (DSS) is plasma
nitrided (PN) at 400° C for 6 h. Two different atmospheres are used: 75% N2-25% H2 and …

Pulsed plasma nitriding and post-oxidizing process have been applied to hot work H13 tool
steel to enhance the tribological properties (friction coefficient and wear rate). Nitriding was …

Abstract Development and evolution of compressive residual stress during nitriding
treatment are studied. A model carbon iron-based alloy Fe-3wt.% Cr-0.35 wt.% C was …

AISI 316 austenitic stainless steel samples were plasma nitrided in variable process times at
low temperature (300° C). Two different pretreatments were performed where ball milling …
