Nanocrystalline surface layer about 10~15μm thick was fabricated on the surface of Ti6Al4V sheet by means of the surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT). The average grain size was about 10nm and the grain characteristic presented equiaxed morphology. The nanocrystalline surface layer could be perfectly maintained below 550°C in the following thermal stability analysis. Neutral salt mixture was about 21% NaCl, 31% BaCl2 and 48% CaCl2 and additionally 5% Na2CO3 of total was utilized. After carburizing process, a continuous charcoal grey carburized layer was composed of TiC and carbon supersaturated solid solution, the hardening layer was about 10~15μm thick. The hardness of the outermost surface reached 1000HV, which was much higher than its coarse-grained counterpart in the same carburizing condition. The experimental result indicated that the carburizing kinetics was obviously enhanced by nanocrystalline surface layer assistance. Furthermore, the neutral molten salt-bath carburizing was verified that it could be performed in a relatively low temperature of 650°C.

Abstract This chapter presents the salts used and the process advantages of salt bath nitriding. It discusses the types of salt bath nitriding processes, such as preheating, immersion into the molten salt bath, cooling in still air or a suitable quench medium, postwashing, and optional polishing or oiling. The chapter provides a discussion on salt bath nitriding equipment and procedure. It describes the materials and equipment, analysis procedure, and determination of sodium carbonate and sodium cyanate for titration testing of the nitriding salt bath. The chapter explains the procedures for maintenance of the salt bath and related equipment. It also discusses safety precautions and design parameters for furnace equipment.
