Abstract
Stainless steel is widely used where corrosion resistance is importance. Stainless steel has its origin excellent corrosion resistance due to the nature of presence Cr as alloying element to form stable passive layer that protects the steel. Due to its inherent austenitic structure, this material has relatively low hardness as well as poor wear resistance which hinders a wider applicability of the material and may cause problems in existing applications. The gaseous thermochemical treatments to improve surface properties of material are typically carried out in carbon and/or nitrogen bearing gases and usually associated with temperature above 500 °C.
