Nitriding (N) and nitrocarburizing (NC) are thermochemical treatments that diffuse nitrogen and carbon into the surface of metals. Nitriding is used on ferrous, titanium, aluminum, and molybdenum ...
Hardenability is the term used to describe the effect of various elements on the transformation characteristics of steels and the resultant microstructure after cooling from the austenitising (or ...
Let's be honest about traditional cookware. We all want the healthy thermal mass of iron, but we hate the back-breaking routine required to use it. That is why hard nitriding cast iron skillets ...
Laser surface engineering methods apply precise laser energy to metal surfaces to increase hardness and wear resistance. A recent study published in Metals found that combining laser surface ...
John D'Amico of Onvio LLC compares nitriding to carburizing gears in planetary gearboxes for hardness. 2:47 Machine Design distills the cutting-edge landscape of advanced manufacturing through the ...
I have had several people ask me to explain the salt bath nitriding process that several rifle and pistol barrel manufacturers utilize. The Idaho State Journal invites you to take part in the ...
A recent study in Advanced Materials Interfaces examined γ’-Fe₄N nitride layers, formed on iron, as a potential barrier against hydrogen permeation. Using a simple gas nitriding process at 570 °C, ...
