Influence of plasma glow discharge on nitriding process of technical titanium

Abstract

Purpose: This article compares selected properties of surface layers produced by plasma nitriding. Additionally, the temperature at the onset of the production of surface layers with uniform characteristics over the entire sample surface was determined. Design/methodology/approach: The selected properties of the surface layers were compared using the following test methods: microhardness measurement by the Knoop method, GDEOS profile analysis, XRD analysis, topography analysis. Findings: It was found that nitriding in plasma glow discharge at 700°C results in obtaining homogeneous surface layers over the entire surface of the sample Research limitations/implications: The ion nitride processes did not allow a complete reduction in the oxygen content. Practical implications: The adopted plasma nitriding parameters will allow homogeneous properties of the surface layers over the entire surface of the sample to be obtained. Originality/value: The effect of plasma glow discharge on the properties of surface layers was determined.
