2017-10-2 One of the most common methods to improve hardness, wear resistance and, as consequence, component life, is thermochemical heat treatment. Sola et al. in Ref 1 and Mittemeijer et al. in Ref 2 demonstrate that nitriding and nitrocarburizing greatly improve wear and corrosion resistance of medium carbon steel (es. 42CrMo4 and 41CrAlMo7).

2016-5-16 Nitriding is the most commonly used surface treatment for hot forging dies. Boriding (also called boronizing) and surface welding are also used in many cases. Surface welding is also used to rebuild worn dies. The vapor deposition techniques such as PVD, CVD are more commonly used for cold forging applications but also have some success in hot and warm forging applications. The cost of surface
