Abstract

Electron beam glazed surfaces on a circular bar are of sufficiently good quality either for direct use or after light mechanical grinding. The technique may be applied for reconstituting plasma deposited layers thereby eliminating porosity and obtaining a highly homogeneous refined microstructure. By this treatment it was found that the microhardness of a plasma deposited layer of chromium carbide in molybdenum binder increased from 525 V.H.N. to 750 V.H.N.
