Modification of non-metallic inclusions to improve the fatigue properties of nitriding steels
Nitriding processes are widely used to improve the fatigue properties of steel. Fatigue failures in nitriding steels initiate from sub-surface non-metallic inclusions, which are usually oxide inclusions. It is known that duplex oxysulphide inclusions are less harmful to the fatigue properties of ste...
