Abstract

This paper describes the structure and properties of nitrided layers produced on the Inconel 600 alloy (16.5wt%Cr, 9wt%Fe, 2wt%Mn, 0.4wt%Co, balance-Ni). The characteristics of the nitrided layers at the surface were investigated by microscopic examinations, X-ray diffraction analyses, hardness measurements and wear tests. It was found that the diffusion-type chromium nitride layer produced on the alloy surface greatly decreased wear rates and slightly increased surface hardness.
