Abstract

The mechanism of boron diffusion under conditions of simultaneous saturation of steels with boron, chromium and titanium are poorly represented in the literature. It is noted that exactly three-component saturation with boron, chromium and titanium allows to obtain diffusion coatings with unique properties. The microhardness of such coatings can achieve 5000 HV, which corresponds to the microhardness of boron carbide B4C. In addition, such coatings, depending on the saturation parameters and the saturable material, can also show high durability values. The microstructure of the diffusion coatings on carbon steels Grade C and steel 1045 has been studied. It has been shown that during the simultaneous diffusion of boron, chromium and titanium under the boride layer additional perlite volumes are formed. The perlite that existed in the steel before the diffusion processes, as a result of diffusion, is fragmented.
