The Effect of Nitrogen Implantation on Martensite in 304 Stainless Steel
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Martensite will form in austenitic 304 stainless steel when it is deformed. Transmission electron microscope studies show that nitrogen ion implantation causes a reversion of the martensite to austenite. Specimens containing martensite resulting from fine surface polishing and heavy rolling are examined. The transformation is shown not to occur because of temperature increases during implantation. The effect is related to recent wear results in 304 stainless steel.
