Low alloy steel was pack-borided at different processing temperatures (at 850, 950, and
1050° C) and times (2, 4, and 6 h). The microstructural characterisation of boronized steel …

In this work, the ASTM A1011 steel substrate has been pack-boronized in the interval of
1123–1273 K for 2–8 h. With the used powders mixture (33.5 wt.% B4C, 5.4 wt.% KBF4 and …

Hard-coated surfacing of a few micrometers is widely applied to increase the efficiency of
tools, eg, for cutting, forming, and casting applications. Therefore, the base thermodiffusion …

In the present work, two mathematical diffusion models have been used to estimate the
growth of the iron monoboride and diiron boride coating formed on AISI 420 steel. The …

In this current research paper, the modelling of boron diffusion during the powder-pack
boronizing was achieved by utilizing two kinetics approaches: the integral method and …

New results about the influence of a small iron borided layer (~ 36 µ m) obtained by the
powder-pack boriding process (PPBP) and diffusion annealing post-process (DAP) were …
