| Summary: | The present work shows AISI-SAE 1020 steel's nitrocarbide layer's microstructure and micro-hardness profile following 4 hours at 700ºC using methanol, isopropanol and triethanolamine. The steel was then hardened by quenching it in water and then tempered at 350ºC for 1 hour. Its surface had been partially oxidised by heating it at 400ºC for 1 hour. An example is given of other researchers analysing microstructure and propierties in steel having 0,5% C, using endothermic gas and different amounts of ammoniac. |
