Abstract
Wear resistance, corrosion properties and structure of reinforced layers deposited on steel AISI 321 with carbonitriding by the quench-polish-quench (QPQ) Tennifer® process with subsequent oxidation are studied. The structure of the layers is investigated by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive local analysis and x-ray diffractometry. Steel wear resistance is determined by a pin-on disk test, and oxide layer adhesion is determined by a scratch method. Pitting corrosion resistance is determined by plotting cyclic polarization curves.
