St37 steel, widely used in many engineering applications, experiences significant losses in
its mechanical and physical properties over time due to reasons such as corrosion or wear …

Abstract 2205 duplex stainless steel despite possessing good corrosion resistance suffers
from low hardness. With a view to improve hardness and corrosion resistance, plasma …

Plasma nitriding is one of the effective methods for improvement of the hardness, wear and
corrosion resistance of steels. In this research AISI H11 hot working tool steel was plasma …

The effects of nitriding, nitrocarburizing and shot peening on fatigue behavior of AISI D3 cold
work tool steel were investigated. Five batches of fatigue specimens were manufactured …

17-4PH stainless steel was plasma nitrocarburized at 460° C for improving its mechanical
properties without compromising its desirable corrosion resistance. The plasma …

This paper compares the ferritic and austenitic plasma nitriding and nitrocarburizing
behavior of AISI 4140 low alloy steel carried out to improve the surface corrosion resistance …

Gas nitriding, as a surface modification technology to improve the wear resistance of
workpiece surfaces, is widely used in wind turbine gears, pressure vessel gears, high …

In this study, electrolytic plasma processing (EPP) was employed for surface nitrocarburizing
of AISI 1020 steel in a urea electrolyte, where the substrate samples were connected …

Rare earth nitriding was considered as an effective method to accelerate the nitriding
efficiency. However the catalytic mechanism was not clear due to the uncertainty of rare …

In this study, a novel duplex treatment (DT) combining plasma nitrocarburizing (PNC) and
plasma nitriding (PN) was primarily developed for AISI 1045 steel. The modified samples …
