Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for heat treatment of metallic Workpieces, especially for nitriding or nitrocarburizing alloyed Ferrous materials, such as higher alloy steels.
  • the invention further relates on the use of a device for performing such a method.
  • thermochemical heat treatment To create defined workpiece properties, such as a high one Wear resistance or sufficient corrosion resistance metallic workpieces are subjected to a thermochemical heat treatment.
  • the result of the heat treatment is, for example, nitriding or nitrocarburizing Enriching the edge layer of the workpieces with nitrogen and / or Carbon in order to achieve the required mechanical and to impart chemical properties on the surface and in the edge area.
  • the surface layer is enriched with nitrogen by the ammonia (NH 3 ) contained in a reaction gas at temperatures of generally over 500 ° C under the catalytic effect of the surface of the workpieces to be nitrided breaks down into nitrogen (N) and hydrogen (H).
  • the ammonia molecule is adsorbed and gradually degraded on the workpiece surface, releasing the required nitrogen in atomic form and making it available for solution in iron and for the formation of iron nitride (Fe x N).
  • the surface layer is simultaneously enriched with carbon.
  • Atomic carbon (C) diffuses in an analogous manner through the workpiece surface into the boundary layer.
  • the surface layer which, in addition to hexagonal ⁇ -nitride (Fe 2-3 N), also face-centered cubic ⁇ '-nitride (Fe 4 N) and also nitrides of nitride-forming alloy elements, such as chromium, molybdenum, manganese, titanium, niobium, tungsten, vanadium or aluminum nitride.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method for the heat treatment of metallic workpieces, in which a largely uniform nitriding layer can be achieved even with workpieces consisting of higher alloyed iron materials.
  • Such a procedure embraces the surprising finding that a largely uniform nitriding layer can be achieved if the Workpieces before the actual heat treatment in process step d, for example, nitriding or nitrocarburizing, initially only in one ammonia-containing gas atmosphere warmed and then in an additional one Gas atmosphere containing oxidizing agent to the treatment temperature,
  • the nitriding temperature, heated and then for a certain Duration may be kept at this temperature with the result that possibly in the case of high-alloy materials, existing passive layers are eliminated or something that be converted into a uniform diffusion of nitrogen into the Material is favored.
  • the temperature at which in each Process steps is heated, and the length of time for which the workpieces in the respective gas atmospheres are based on the Composition of the reaction gas and the material to be treated Workpieces and the desired treatment success.
  • the ratio of the amounts of ammonia and the oxidizing agent in the gas atmosphere is expediently between 1: 1 and 5: 1 if air is used as the oxidizing agent and between 1: 0.1 and 1: 1 if carbon dioxide, water vapor or nitrogen dioxide Oxidizing agents are used.
  • a particularly advantageous procedure is also given when the Time period when the workpieces are kept in an ammonia or Ammonia and the carbon-donating gas atmosphere in Dependence on the desired thickness of the surface layer to be enriched is chosen.
  • Procedural management may also be useful as carbon donor substance carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide or Hydrocarbons can be used individually or as a mixture.
  • the workpieces in one reducing or neutral gas atmosphere for example from an endogas or nitrogen, or in a liquid quenching medium Room temperature can be cooled to an economically beneficial Ensure procedure.
  • the first workpiece sample shown in FIG. 1 was preheated to a temperature of approximately 450 ° C. in an endogas-containing gas atmosphere and then in a reaction gas consisting of 50 vol.% Ammonia (NH 3 ) and 50 vol.% Endogas the nitriding temperature of approx. 580 ° C warmed. After approximately 240 minutes, during which the workpiece sample was exposed to the gas atmosphere at this temperature, the workpiece sample was cooled to room temperature in an endogenous gas atmosphere.
  • a reaction gas consisting of 50 vol.% Ammonia (NH 3 ) and 50 vol.% Endogas the nitriding temperature of approx. 580 ° C warmed.
  • the second workpiece sample shown in Fig. 2 was first preheated in an ammonia-containing gas atmosphere to a temperature of about 450 ° C and then in an ammonia-containing reaction gas, the air as an oxidizing agent in a ratio of 3.5 (ammonia): 1 (air ) was added, heated to the nitriding temperature of approx. 580 ° C. The workpiece sample was then held at this temperature and in this gas atmosphere for a period of about 1.5 hours. The gas atmosphere was then exchanged and the workpiece sample was exposed at 580 ° C.
  • the comparison of the micrographs shown in the drawing shows that the 1, structure of the first produced by conventional nitriding Workpiece sample in the range from 0 ⁇ m to 40 ⁇ m from the edge uneven nitriding layer, while that after the last Methodically generated nitriding layer of the second workpiece sample is evenly formed.
  • Iron materials such as stainless steels
  • their high corrosion resistance is inextricably linked to surface passivation, on proportionate achieve better treatment results in a simple way.
