The presence of the nitrogen-expanded martensitic phase, induced by nitriding, imparts superior surface properties to the material, including increased hardness, wear, and corrosion resistance 9. Thus ...

After nitriding, quenching is not necessary to produce hardening in the nitrided layer. Plasma nitriding differs from traditional nitriding in that it uses a nitrogen gas ionization process during ...

Case hardening heat treatments, which includes nitriding, nitrocarburizing, carburizing and carbonitriding, alter a part’s chemical composition, unlike annealing. It focuses on surface ...

In addition, the company has targeted on achieving an annual growth rate of 23-28% during 2023 to 2024 in line with the increased inventory capacity and the addition of nitriding hardening ...

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 ...
