What is Nitriding Process for Steel Hardening about?
Nitriding is a surface hardening process that introduces nitrogen into steel rather than carbon like carburizing. Special alloy steels are used because nitriding occurs at lower temperatures than carburizing. The steel requires a high core hardness to withstand loads. Nitrogen diffuses more slowly than carbon, so nitriding takes longer. It produces a harder surface than carburizing. The nitriding process involves heating steel in an ammonia atmosphere, which dissociates into nitrogen gas. The nitrogen forms
