Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biocompatible stainless steel and beta-type Ti alloy with high-nitrogen surface layer were fabricated by solution-nitriding method. Type 304 stainless steel and beta-type Ti alloy were solution nitrided at high temperature. Solution nitriding resulted in the formation of surface-hardened layer, which was beneficial for wear resistance. In Type 304, fatigue strengths in laboratory air were highly improved by solution nitriding due to the surface-hardened layer. However, precipitation of chromium nitrides (CrN) occurred during solution nitriding, resulting in the formation of Cr-depicted zone along grain boundary. Consequently, corrosion fatigue strengths in 3%NaCl solution decreased compared with un-treated material. Solution-nitrided beta-type Ti alloy exhibited lower fatigue strengths in laboratory air than un-treated material due to the sever grain growth during solution nitriding.
