摘要: Abstract A characterization study of the phases formed during aging ferrous materials nitrided in a microwave post-discharge was performed by microhardness, electron microscopy (SEM, TEM and HREM) X-ray diffraction. Iron AISI-1010 steel samples were for 10 min at 840 K then quenched Ar 273 K. The annealed treatment times ranging from 0.5 h to 8 673 results microstructural show presence compact surface layer composed epsilon nitride (Fe 2 – 3 N). For iron, Fe 4 N needles appeared underneath after nitriding. During annealing, amount, size morphology change as time progresses. 16 also detected aging. amount this phase increases with time. microhardness measurements correlate changes.
