The nitrided layer formed on Type 304 steel after gas nitriding was studied using TEM and so on. (1) Dependency of the nitriding temperature and time on the depth of the nitrided layer was studied. The following equation was obtained. L2=8.7*108*EXP(-146,000/RT)*t (2) Nitrided layer formed at both 570°C for 3 hrs and 410°C for 48 hrs had high density of dislocation, stacking fault and lattice strain. (3) Nitrided layer formed at 570°C was mainly composed of є-Fe3N, and had much Fe4N and CrN. (4) On the other hand, the nitrided layer formed at 410°C was mainly composed of S-phase, є-Fe3N was not detected and Fe4N and CrN were very little. N content in the nitrided layer formed at 410°C was about 7-8 mass%. (5) Nitrided layer formed at 410°C showed good corrosion resistance.

AISI 310 is an austenitic stainless steel that accomplished in high thermal applications like turbines, boiler parts etc. In this study AISI310 was treated with salt bath nit- -riding for 60min, 120min and 150min and gas nitriding for 6hrs, 12hrs and 18hrs at the temperature of 5700 c respectively. Comparison study of nitrided specimens were performed under various metallographic tests like scanning electron microscope, X-ray Diffraction, pin on disc apparatus. Experimental results shown that when salt bath nitrided sample at 150min showed a white layer called “S-phase” layer which was detected. In gas nitriding also “S-phase” layer, an expanded austenite was observed, after 18 hrs, CrN phase was discovered after the decomposition of s-phase layer gas nitrided sample of 18hrs which showed the best corrosion resistance .Salt bath specimen 150 min showed minimum wear loss and gas nitrided sample of 18hrs showed more hardness, minimum wear and improved corrosion resistance compared to untreated sample.

Biometallic materials for implant devices not only have to good corrosion resistance but also stable nonmagnetic properties. Various method have been developed for enhanced the corrosion resistance i.e low temperature gas nitriding treatments. Unfortunatelly, low temperature gas nitriding produce weakly ferromagnetic due the presence of expanded austenitic phases. Another treatments methods which is capable for improvement the mechanical properties is high temperature gas nitriding. However, the evaluation of magnetic properties of austenitic stainless steel 316L and 316LVM not yet investigation. The evaluation of magnetic properties of austenitis stainless steel 316L and 316LVM after high temperature gas nitriding treatments have been succesfully done. The magnetic properties are evaluated by vibrating sample magnetometre (VSM) test. The magnetic properties such as magnetic remenance, magnetic saturation and magnetic permeability are improved. As treated 316L and 316LVM have more stable non-magnetic properties and they more safe and compatible for MRI test

Samples of AISI 201 austenitic stainless steel were produced by plasma nitriding at 350[Formula: see text]C, 390[Formula: see text]C, 420[Formula: see text]C, 450[Formula: see text]C and 480[Formula: see text]C for 5[Formula: see text]h. Systematic characterization of the nitrided layer was carried out in terms of micrograph observations, phase identification, chemical composition depth profiling, surface microhardness measurements and electrochemical corrosion tests. The results show that the surface hardness and the layer thickness increased with increasing temperature. XRD indicated that a single S-phase layer was formed during low temperature ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]420[Formula: see text]C), while Cr2N or CrN phase was formed besides S-phase when nitrided at 450[Formula: see text]C and 480[Formula: see text]C. The specimen treated at 390[Formula: see text]C presents a much enhanced corrosion resistance compared to the untreated substrate. The corrosion resistance deteriorated for samples treated above 450[Formula: see text]C due to the formation of chromium nitrides.
