    The effects of conventional heat treatment and boronizing on abrasive wear and corrosion of SAE 1010, SAE 1040, D2 and 304 steels
    Atik, E; Yunker, U; Meriç, C
    The effects of conventional heat treatment and boronizing on SAE 1010 and SAE 1040 structural steels, D2 tool steel, and 304 stainless steel were investigated. During this investigation, layer thicknesses, corrosion and wear strength were examined by applying carburisation, nitriding, transformation hardening and boronizing to the specimens. Abrasive wear tests were carried out in a wear cup model device. Sand of 1 mm diameter was used and the test duration was 40 hours with a velocity 0.157 m/s. Corrosion tests were undertaken in a 10% H2SO4 solution at a temperature of 56degreesC. Through metallographic analyses, hard layer thicknesses and Vickers hardness values were determined for each hardening treatment. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
