Abstract

The surface structure of a X 12 CrNi 1810 Ti low-carbon steel after saturation with nitrogen and carbon as a consequence of electrolytic plasma nitriding and carbonitriding was studied in this work. It turned out that the X 12 CrNi 1810 Ti steel surface has a modified martensite structure and high hardness after electrolytic plasma processing. It was determined that carbide and nitride particles are formed in the surface layer during nitriding and carbonitriding followed by tempering. The X 12 CrNi 1810 Ti steel wear resistance after carbonitriding and nitriding was investigated and a decrease of the friction coefficient was observed.

Kurzfassung

Die Oberflächenstruktur eines niedrig-kohlenstoffhaltigen Stahls X 12 CrNi 1810 Ti nach Sättigung mit Stickstoff und Kohlenstoff infolge von Plasma-Nitrierens und Plasma-Carbonitrierens wurde in der diesem Beitrag zugrundeliegenden Studie untersucht. Es stellte sich heraus, dass die Stahloberfläche ein martensitisches Gefüge und eine hohe Härte nach dem elektrolytischen Plasmaprozess aufweist. Hierbei wurde festgestellt, dass sich Carbid- und Nitrid-Partikel in der Oberflächenschicht während des Nitrierens sowie des Carbonitrierens und nachfolgendem Anlassen bilden. Der Verschleißwiderstand des X 12 CrNi 1810 Ti Stahles nach dem Carbonitrieren und dem Nitrieren wurde untersucht und eine Abnahme des Reibkoeffizienten beobachtet.
