碩士 === 大同大學 === 材料工程研究所 === 93 === The 316 austenitic stainless steel and 410 martensitic stainless steel have been studied on their corrosion resistance and tribology properties after they were plasma nitrided at high temperature(550℃) and low temperature(420℃). Some of the nitrided specimens were subjected to be oxidized at 350℃ and 500℃ for investigating the effect of post-oxidation treatment on their properties change. The active screen employed in low temperature nitriding has been proved that it can enhance the hardened layer formation and not to deteriorate the corrosion resistance of the stainless steels, due to the elimination of CrN formation. The post-oxidation treatment also proved that it can effectively improve the corrosion and wear resistance of the coated layers. In this research, using DC plasma system to proceed high temperature (550℃) plasma nitriding; active screen technique assists DC plasma system to proceed low temperature (420℃) plasma nitriding. Active screen technique can improve the disadvantage of DC plasma nitiriding, such as arcing damage, edging effect and hollow-cathode effect. Proceeding 350℃ and 500℃post-oxidation treatment in the air follow by plasma nitriding treatment.
