Abstract:Copper, of which small amounts are usually contained in steel scraps, has been the target of the elimination from automotive or machine-grade carbon steels for a long time. However recently its effectiveness on steel's mechanical properties has been revealed and application to commercial products has begun. In this paper, the effect of Cu up to 1.0 mass% on the nitrocarburizing characteristics for 0.35 mass% C steels has been studied. (1) Mechanical properties of Cu-bearing samples showed Cu has an effect on t… Show more
