dc.descriptionThe aim of this paper is to study and analyze the effects of a surface controlled salt bath nitriding on the microhardness of AISI 1045 steel. The nitriding process was implemented in the salt bath component at ten different times (from 1 h to 10 h) when the temperature was constant at (520ºC). The nitriding process repeated of other specimens at the same times, but the temperature was (580ºC).The microstructure of the surface layers was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy. Hardness profiles were measured with lowload hardness testing to determine the growth of the case depth after nitriding. Microhardness testing was carried out on samples to investigate the hardness profile at the transition from the compound to the diffusion layer. The microhardness of the surface of the nitrided sample at 520ºC and 580ºC was observed in the range of 318–430 HV0.3 and 329–421 HV0.3, respectively. Experimental results showed that the nitrides ε-Fe2-3(N, C) and γ’-Fe4(N,C) present in the compound layer increase the microhardness , It also showed that the Increasing the salt bath nitriding parameters (treatment time and temperature) increases the surface hardness and hardness profile.
