Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce a stainless steel sheet excellent in corrosion resistance by subjecting a stainless steel sheet arranged in a plasma contg. gaseous nitrogen and hydrogen to heating to a prescribed temp. ands impressing a minum bias thereto. CONSTITUTION:The inside of a sealed container 1 is fed with gaseous nitrogen and gaseous hydrogen at 0.5 to 5.0 hydrogen/nitrogen partial pressure ratio to regulate the total pressure to 0.5 to 10Torr. The space between electrodes 2a and 2b for electric discharge arranged to face oppositely is impressed with the electric power of a power source 6, and the same gaseous mixture is plasmatized at 5 to 50W/cm<2> plasmatizing electric power density. In this plasma, a stainless steel sheet 3 is arranged and is heated to 300 to 600 deg.C by heating controlling mechanisms 7a and 7b. Moreover, this stainless steel sheet 3 is impressed with a minus bias of 5.0 to 100V to the counter electrode 4 by a direct power source 5. Thus, the surface of the stainless steel sheet 3 is enriched with nitrogen, and high corrosion resistance is imparted thereto.

2. Description of the Related Art A typical stainless steel plate is a ferrite SUS4 containing Fe-Cr as a main component.
There are 30 steel plates and an austenitic SUS304 steel plate containing Fe-Cr-Ni as a main component. It is known that these stainless steel sheets exhibit higher corrosion resistance than ordinary steel materials by forming a passivation film containing chromium oxide as a main component on the surface thereof. Therefore, stainless steel sheets are widely used for various exterior materials for buildings, furniture such as sinks and bath tubs, and household products such as knives and forks, which require corrosion resistance.

Particularly, recently, the number of examples used for building materials has been increasing. Building materials are exposed to harsh conditions such as wind and rain and humidity cycles, and higher corrosion resistance is required.
The brightly annealed stainless steel plate is used for this purpose because it prevents the formation of thick oxide scales found in materials that have been pickled and polished, and has a more excellent corrosion resistance. Is formed. However, with the expansion of applications, examples of use in the harsh environment in which rust is a problem is often found in the brightly annealed stainless steel sheets. In addition, users' demands for corrosion resistance are becoming stricter, and further higher corrosion resistance of stainless steel sheets is required.

That is, in this technique, it is essential to completely cover the surface of stainless steel with the compound thin film. If fine defects such as holes and cracks are present in the thin film, corrosion progresses inward from these defects, and the thin film no longer functions as a film for exhibiting high corrosion resistance. Since it is practically difficult to form a defect-free thin film having no defects on a practical material, there is often a problem that a part of the compound thin film-coated stainless steel plate is partially corroded. In addition, the adhesion between the thin film and the stainless steel plate is often insufficient, and the thin film often spontaneously peels off during use of the stainless steel plate, and there is a problem that corrosion progresses from there. As described above, the compound thin film-coated stainless steel sheet has a problem in reliability as a material, and its improvement is required.

Next, the procedure for forming the nitrogen-enriched layer on the surface of the stainless steel plate by the apparatus of the present invention will be described.
First, after the stainless steel plate 3 to be nitrided is installed, the gas inlet 8 is closed and the gas in the closed container is exhausted by 11. After the degree of vacuum in the closed container reaches the desired pressure,
To control the desired composition including nitrogen and the flow rate to the gas inlet 8
Is opened and allowed to flow into the closed container, and 11 is controlled to set the pressure inside the closed container to a desired pressure. The degree of vacuum that can be exhausted and reached in a closed container is easily reached with a rotary pump. 1
A vacuum degree higher than 0 -3 Torr is sufficient. The pressure in the container during the nitrogen enrichment treatment may be 0.5 Torr or more and 10 Torr or less. When the total pressure is 0.5 Torr or less, the nitrogen-enriched surface is damaged, and when it is 10 Torr or more, the nitrogen-enriching rate is remarkably reduced. The hydrogen / nitrogen pressure ratio is 0.5 or more and 5.
0 or less is good. When the hydrogen / nitrogen pressure ratio is 0.5 or less, the oxidation reaction has priority, and when the hydrogen / nitrogen pressure ratio is 5.0 or more, the denitrification reaction has priority, and the nitriding enrichment reaction is suppressed.

Next, the stainless steel plate 3 to be nitrided is heated to a desired temperature by using the heating control mechanism 7. The heating temperature is
The temperature is preferably 300 ° C or higher and 600 ° C or lower. Nitrogen enrichment occurs even at room temperature, but the amount of nitrogen enrichment is small and the effect of improvement by nitrogen enrichment is low. Further, at a high temperature, the reaction with the element on the surface of the stainless steel plate becomes active and the nitrogen enrichment reaction becomes active, as well as the denitrification by hydrogen and the oxidation reaction by the residual oxygen in the closed container become active, and the nitrogen enrichment effect decreases.
After holding at the heating temperature, a desired electric power is applied between the electrodes 2-a and b by using a current of 6 to generate plasma.

Above 50 (W / cm 2 ), the nitrogen-rich surface is damaged. At the same time, a DC voltage that makes the stainless steel plate negative is applied to the stainless steel plate 3 and the electrode 4.

The bias applied to the sample is negative, and its value is preferably 5 V or more and 100 V or less. The polarity applied to the sample promotes the attraction of the activated plasma nitrogen to the sample surface by giving the sample a negative polarity because the plasma nitrogen ionizes positively. When the bias is -5 V or less, the attracting effect is small and the nitrogen enriching effect is low. Above 100V, it damages the nitrogen-rich surface. After holding for a desired time, the plasma power supply is turned off, the heating power supply is turned off, the bias power supply is turned off, and after the temperature of the stainless steel plate is sufficiently lowered, the inlet and the outlet are closed, the leak valve 12 is opened, and the inside of the closed container is closed. Atmospheric pressure is set and the stainless steel plate is taken out from the closed container.
