Research Abstract |
A surface hardening method was established for austenitic stainless steels without degradation of anticorrosion properties. It was clarified that the hardening is occurred by the increase of supersaturated interstitial concentration, which expands the lattice, the expansion induces the more super saturation of interstitials. The depth of the hardened surface layer can be thickened by effective additional substitutional elements. Further structure formation was tried by combination of DLC coating. Adhesion of the DLC coating to hardened S phase was clarified. It also clarified that the excess surface condensation formed at the surface of a duplex layer structure by carbon and nitrogen diffusion can be removed effectively by specific Ar plasma irradiation conditions.
