Abstract
Carburizing technologies are used to provide strength on low quality metals. This technology is being developing with novel improvements significantly. The carburizing process consists of, first releasing Carbon mono-oxide from charcoal material and then transfers carbon to raw metal. There are favorable upgradations in these technologies from researchers which have a paramount industrial importance. In Vacuum gas carburizing, the steel metal is carburized with (Acetylene and Propane) gases. These gases are at low pressure and high temperature. The results show that the metal is 1.5 times harder than its raw form. There are also used mathematical models to validate the results. It used gas and solid phases for validation. In pulse carburizing, carbon diffusion on steel is investigated with heat treatment. This process includes several carburizing stages. This process is based on Darken bi velocity and drift velocity. It accounts to demonstrate the kinetics of carbon transfer on steel surface. This design is very useful by regarding carburizing time for this process design. In Plasma carburizing, the mixtures of gases are used to harden the steel. The carburizing temperature was varied in cementite and mertensite. The favorable results show that these specimens have (Lower surface roughness, Higher surface hardness and Low wear rate). It is a most novel diffusion controlled novel process till the present time. The carburized metal is used in industry by including (Turbine gears and Air craft engine). Henceforth, It is of great importance to study the carburizing technologies for providing better strength on metal.
Highlights
The surface of the metal materials can be made stronger by using carburizing processes
The Carbon monoixide (CO) gas is released by using charcoal as the medium and surface of the metals are carburized simultaneously
The steel carburizing is a thermo-chemical process that starts upon heat treatment of steel surface with the carbon
Summary
The surface of the metal materials can be made stronger by using carburizing processes. The amount of carbon deposited on the steel surface is interlinked with the partial pressure of the carburizing gas. The Propane (C3H8) and Butane (C4H10) are fed in furnace Their products are CO, CO2 and H2O that react with metals surface to increase strength. There was increased in carbon transfer due to high temperature It was an advantage for steel strength. The optimization in gaseous feed rate leads to the uniform carburizing in Vacuum gas carburizing process. There are numerical methods, which are quite effective to demonstrate the physical phenomena in Vacuum gas carburizing process for steel strength. The M50NiL steel has surface harden microstructure that can be used in Aircraft engine This is a novel development in carburizing process [18,19,20,21].
