Metallurgical response of an AISI 4140 steel to different plasma nitriding gas mixtures
Plasma nitriding is a surface modification process that uses glow discharge to diffuse nitrogen atoms into the metallic matrix of different materials. Among the many possible parameters of the process, the gas mixture composition plays an important role, as it impacts directly the formed layer'...
