Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the gouge resistance of gas-soft-nitrided steel parts. SOLUTION: Steel parts are subjected to gas soft-nitriding treatment at <590 deg.C as the A1 transformation point of Fe-N. Subsequently, the steel parts are heated to >=590 deg.C to partially form the nitrogen diffused layer into austenitic structure. Successively, quenching is performed to convert austenite to martensite, by which the hardness of the diffusion layer is increased and the iron-nitrogen compound layer at the surface is reinforced from the part below.

Generally, when a gas nitrocarburizing treatment is applied to a steel part, an iron-nitrogen compound layer is formed on the outermost surface, and a nitrogen diffusion layer is formed below the compound layer. in this case,
The nitrogen content of the iron-nitrogen compound layer is 8 to 10 wt% and the nitrogen content of the diffusion layer is 1 to 5 wt%. Referring to the iron-nitrogen phase diagram of FIG. It can be seen that the eutectoid transformation is present and the eutectoid temperature (A 1 transformation point) is 590 ° C. The iron-nitrogen compound layer is mainly composed of an ε phase (Fe 2-3 N). As is well known, the A 1 transformation point of the iron-carbon system is 723 ° C., and the A 1 transformation point of the diffusion layer is considerably lower than that of the iron-carbon system.

(B) Hardness test The hardness test was carried out using a Vickers hardness tester with a load of 100 gf.
And the hardness distribution from the surface to the core was determined.
FIG. 3 shows the results. The results of Examples 1 and 2 according to the present invention are higher than those of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 subjected to the standard gas nitrocarburizing treatment. It is clear that the hardness is high in the range from 0.1 mm on the side to 1 mm on the core side. Among the comparative examples, the comparative example 3 subjected to the nitrocarburizing treatment at a high temperature (620 ° C.) has a relatively high hardness in the same range.
This iron - for treated beyond the A 1 transformation point in the nitrogen phase diagram (FIG. 2), the diffusion layer is estimated to be due to partially martensitic transformation. However, Comparative Example 3 is inferior in corrosion resistance, as is apparent from the results of the corrosion resistance test described below, and is not preferable in practical use. In addition, the material subjected to the refining treatment (induction quenching and tempering) (marked with ◆) has a substantially constant hardness up to a depth of about 1 mm from the surface. It is considerably lower than the one subjected to the nitriding treatment, and a problem remains in terms of wear resistance.
