High-temperature surface oxidation kinetics were determined for low-carbon steel using a Joule heating device on hollow cylindrical specimens. The growth of the oxide layer was measured in situ between 800 and 1050 ∘C under isothermal oxidation conditions and in an air laboratory atmosphere (O2 = 20.3% and humidity = 42%). Through a laser and infrared measuring system, the expansion and temperature were measured continuously. From the data acquired, the oxidation kinetic parameters were obtained at different temperatures with a parabolic-type growth model to estimate the rate of oxide layer generation. The convergence degree of the data fitted with the oxidation model was acceptable and appropriately correlated with the experimental data. Finally, comparisons were made between the estimated kinetic parameters and those reported in the literature, observing that the activation energy values obtained are in the range of the reported values.

A low carbon steel was hot-dip aluminized, and corroded in the N2/0.4%H2S-mixed gas at 650-850°C for 20-50 h in order to find the effect of aluminizing on the high-temperature corrosion of the low carbon steel in the H2S environment. A thin Al topcoat and a thick Al-Fe alloy layer that consisted primarily of Al5Fe2 and some FeAl and Al3Fe formed on the surface after aluminizing. The corrosion rate increased with an increase in temperature. Hot-dip aluminizing increased the corrosion resistance of the carbon steel through forming a thin protective α-Al2O3 scale on the surface. The α-Al2O3 scale was susceptible to spallation. During corrosion, internal voids formed in the Al-Fe alloy layer, where the Al5Fe2, AlFe, and Al3Fe compounds gradually transformed through interdiffusion.

A role of oxi-nitrocarburizing technique for low-carbon steel was intensively evaluated as a means of reducing the problem of corrosion in gas nitrocarburizing, which is a vital disadvantage of gas nitrocarburizing. Oxi-nitrocarburizing was carried out by a two-step process: Gas nitrocarburizing at 560 °C and oxidation. In order to characterize two different methods of oxi-nitrocarburizing, oxidation was performed under two different conditions: Air and steam as oxygen sources. To analyze the microstructural, physical, and chemical properties of the thin oxide layer and nitride layer, which are the surface hardened layers formed on low-carbon steel by oxi-nitrocarburizing, several methods, such as electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nanoindentation tests, and potentiodynamic polarization tests were applied. The results indicated that the EPMA and EBSD methods are powerful techniques for the analysis of microstructure, such as phase analysis and metallic element distribution in the oxide layer of magnetite and compound layer of ε-phase and γ'-phase, for oxi-nitrocarburized low-carbon steel. Additionally, the nanohardness using the nanoindentation test and corrosion resistance using the potentiodynamic polarization test for the oxi-nitrocarburized specimens are useful methods to understand the mechanical and corrosion properties of the surface hardened layer.

Electrical contact resistance is an important parameter in resistance welding. In this article, a Gleeble 3500 thermal-mechanical testing machine was employed to measure the contact resistance. The machine is equipped with a special electrical resistance measuring system. The contact resistance is experimentally investigated for welding low carbon steel to themselves. A detailed work was carried out to investigate the influence of pressure, temperature on the contact resistance of low carbon steel. The experimental results show that the contact resistance decreases when pressure or temperature increases.

A borocarburized layer was successfully fabricated on the surface of Q235 low-carbon steel via double glow treatment to improve the wear resistance at elevated temperature. The phase composition and microstructure of borocarburized layer were investigated by XRD and SEM. The microhardness of borocarburized layer from the surface to the substrate were detected. And the tribological behaviors of borocarburized layer and substrate were investigated under the dry-sliding against ZrO2 ball at three temperatures. The results indicate that the borocarburized layer consists of an outermost boride layer and a transition layer of carburized layer. The boride layer with main phase of Fe2B has a high hardness around 1700 HV, and the hardness of transition layer with main phase of Fe5C3 is around 600 HV. The novel gradient structure of an outermost boride layer and inner carburized layer is design in this research decreases the hardness mismatch of coating to prevent the boride layer peeling off. The friction coefficient and specific wear rate of borocarburized layer are much lower than that of substrate at the same temperature. In addition, the wear mechanism of substrate is mainly fatigue wear and slightly adhesive wear at 20℃. When the wear test performs at 200℃, the substrate wear mechanism is adhesive wear and fatigue wear. The wear mechanism of borocarburized layer is main abrasive wear at 20℃ and 200℃. And the wear mechanism of both substrate and borocarburized layer are main oxidation wear and adhesive wear at 500℃. The borocarburized layer effectively improves the wear resistance of low carbon steel due to the higher hardness and great thermal stability at high temperature.
