Diffusion kinetics of different boronizing processes on martensitic stainless steel AISI 420

Abstract: Martensitic stainless steels are much more considered using in many applications relating high loading and wear. A boride layer on martensitic stainless steel is generally accepted against wear and oxidation occurred during services. Boronizing processes, salt bath and powder pack, were performed on a martensitic stainless steel AISI 420 at a temperature range of 1123-1223 K with boronizing time up to 9 h. Boride layer thicknesses were measured using an optical microscope with an image analyzer program. An X-r… Show more

“…As it can be seen from optical micrographs, borided layer had smooth morphology and flat interface between layer and matrix. It was resulted from alloying elements of Cr, Ni due to high amount of Cr and Ni in the Mirrax steel matrix restricted the growing of borides layer [9,15,16,17]. These elements, especially Cr, also has higher dissolution ability in the layer according to iron matrix because of atomic number of Cr was lower than that of Fe and therefore, higher porosity can be seen towards surface of the borides layer.…”

“…Thus, there are many ways to improve the fatigue performance by modification or treatment of the surface regions, i.e., thermochemical or mechanical surface treatments. Some investigations of thermochemical surface treatments, e.g., carbonitriding or boronizing processes are reported and focused on the fatigue as well as kinetics [5][6][7][8]. Mechanical surface treatments, e.g.…”

“…A large SiC amount added prevents boron oxide formation and consumption because silicon oxide formation prevails over boron oxide formation. Potassium fluoroborate (KFB 4 ) is an activating agent to lower the temperature for boron thermochemical diffusion [73]. Common carbon steels or alloy steels may be suitable.…”
