Application of Duplex Technology for Modification of Friction Pair Surfaces

Abstract

The set of studies on modified superficial layer friction pair parts made of X155CrVMo12-1steel was discussed. The said layer is produced according to the duplex process of nitriding and oxidation and is investigated using methods of metallography, X-ray diffraction analysis and micro-hardness measurement based on the oblique and transverse polished sections of the studied surfaces. The results produced proved the duplex process efficiency.
