Abstract:

A composite surface layer was fabricated on a high-vanadium alloy steel (HVAS) plate by means of a surface gas nitriding at 550°C for 70h. The microstructural charaterization and phase analysis of resultant nitride layers were performed using optical, scanning electron microscopy, electron probe microanalyzer, X-ray diffraction methods and hardness measurements. The results of the investigation showed that a composite layer consisting of ε-Fe_2–3N and γ'-Fe₄N phases is feasible on the surface of HVAS. Vickers hardness test indicate that the hardness value of the nitrided sample is about 1100 HV at the top surface, and decreases gradually to about 700 HV in the matrix. The depth of hardened layer after surface gas nitriding was about 200 μm.
