플라즈마 침류질화처리된 SKD61강의 표면경화층의 미세조직과 특성
Microstructures and Properties of Surface Hardened Layer on the Plasma Sulfnitrided SKD61 Steel
E-mail:
Plasma sulfnitriding technology was employed to harden the surface of SKD61 steel. The plasma sulfnitriding was performed with 3 torr gas pressure at 580 ? C for 20 hours. Plasma sulfnitriding resulted in the formation of very thin 2?3μm FeS sulfide layer on top of 15?20μm compound layer, which consisted of predominantly ε - Fe2?3 N and a second phase of Υ ′ ?Fe 4 N. In comparision with plasma nitriding treatment, plasma sulfnitriding treatment showed better surface roughness and corrosion resistance due to the presence of the thin FeS layer. which coated microvoids and microcracks on top of the nitrided layer. It was also found that plasma sulfnitrided sample showed better wear resistance due to the presence of the thin FeS layer which acted as a solid lubricant.
