Abstract
Austenitic and duplex stainless steels are used in a variety of industries due to their high corrosion resistance. However, this is countered by a high coefficient of friction and thus a limited wear behaviour, which restricts the technical application possibilities. Coatings or conventional hardening processes, such as solution nitriding above 1000 °C, offer a certain reduction of these wear phenomena, but are associated with the risk of delamination and/or loss of corrosion properties. In addition, the hardening effect is limited for austenitic and duplex grades. The low temperature surface hardening process below 500 °C offers the possibility to overcome these limitations. In this article the technology of this process is explained. In addition, research results show the positive influence of this treatment on the lifetime of components made of corrosion resistant steels. As a future outlook, possible properties and applications for the prospective increasing number of hydrogen applications are explained.
Kurzfassung
Korrosionsbeständige austenitische und Duplex-Stähle finden aufgrund ihres hohen Korrosionswiderstandes in einer Vielzahl von Industriezweigen Anwendung. Dem steht jedoch ein hoher Reibkoeffizient und damit ein limitiertes Verschleißverhalten entgegen, welche die technischen Einsatzmöglichkeiten stark beschränken. Beschichtungen oder konventionelle Härteverfahren wie das Lösungsnitrieren über 1000 °C bieten eine gewisse Reduktion dieser Verschleißerscheinungen, sind jedoch mit dem Risiko der Delamination und/oder dem Verlust der Korrosionseigenschaften verbunden. Zusätzlich ist bei austenitischen und Duplex-Stählen der Härtungseffekt nur limitiert. Das Niedertemperatur-Oberflächenhärteverfahren unter 500 °C bietet eine Möglichkeit, diese Einschränkungen zu überwinden. In diesem Artikel wird die Technologie dieses Verfahrens erläutert. Zusätzlich zeigen Untersuchungsergebnisse den positiven Einfluss dieser Behandlung auf die Lebensdauer von Bauteilen aus korrosionsbeständigen Stählen. Als ein Zukunftsausblick werden die möglichen Eigenschaften und Einsatzmöglichkeiten für die perspektivisch steigende Anzahl von Wasserstoff-Anwendungen erläutert.
