Full Description

Thermochemical Surface Engineering of Steels, Second Edition presents up-to-date information on a range of techniques and their applications. This edition expands upon the materials presented in the first edition, now including a discussion of high temperature processes for stainless steels as well as a chapter on solution nitriding and a full update on current materials. Part One presents foundational information regarding Thermodynamics; Part Two discusses the requirements for improved fatigue resistance for materials exposed to thermochemical treatments. Part Three looks at nitriding, nitrocarburizing, and carburizing. Final sections look at specific low temperature carburizing and nitriding and discuss various thermochemical surface engineering methods.
