Carburizing of Steel

Abstract: Abstract:Paraffin wax (sulfur and phosphorous free)used as carburizer material for low carbon steels(Steel20, Steel3, and Steel 20x) instead of kerosene. Results show 1) Carburized layer by wax is more depth than in case of kerosene for all the three types of steel, e.g. for steel 20x the depths are 1.336 0.001 and 0.98 0.15 mm respectively 2) More homogenized carburized layer by wax than by kerosene 3) Higher hardness carburized layer by wax than by kerosene, for steel 20x (61.5 and 59.5 Rockwell Respectively… Show more

“…In recent time, there has also been a trend to use carburize steel for medium and small machine parts, which has higher carbon content. A more grounded focal point has been put on steel with an expanding carbon content (0,25 to 0,35 percent) which allows the importance of a carburized case to be greatly reduced following warmth treatment [8]. The materials used in this study are pure waste materials which can be easily sourced for in the community.…”

“…In general, ST 37. steel can be used directly without undergoing heat treatment, unless special applications are needed [5]- [6]. To change the hardness value of low carbon steel, several metalworking processes are needed, one of which is through the process of adding carbon from the steel or what is often called carburizing [7].…”

“…The main purpose of the carburizing process is to have a hard and wear resistance surface on mechanical components by enrichment of the surface layer with carbon to a concentration from 0.75 to 1.2% . Low carbon steels, containing from 0.1 to 0.18 % carbon, may be subjected to carburizing [1]. Many researches have been conducting on carburizing process.…”
