A combination of high pressure (4 x 10(1)Pa), moderate temperature (up to 450degreesC) glow discharge nitriding with low pressure (8 x 10(-2)Pa) and low DC bias voltage ion nitriding (or DC PIII) was implemented. Depending on the particular conditions of the treatment and the depth probed, mixed phases of gamma(N) and epsilon were measured in the treated SS304 steel sample. This near surface modification resulted in an improved hardness (up to a factor of 2.7 x) of the sample which could also enhance its wear properties. Surface modification of T16Al4V alloy and SS304 steel by a combination of PIII and subsequent ion nitriding was investigated as well. Nitrogen ions were implanted into the specimens at 15 keV and then ion nitrided at low pressure (7 x 10(-2)Pa) with a bias of -800 V. Compared to the untreated samples, the hardness of Ti6Al4V alloy and the steels could be improved significantly. AES results indicated high retained doses in both samples, confirming the high efficiency of this hybrid process. . %8 Dec. %N 4b %T Results from experiments on hybrid plasma immersion ion implantation/nitriding processing of materials %K TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES, HIGH-PRESSURE, STEEL, METAL. %@secondarytype PRE PN %@group LAP-INPE-MCT-BR %@copyholder SID/SCD %@secondarykey INPE-12815-PRE/8105 %@issn 0103-9733 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais, Laboratorio Associado de Plasmas(INPE, LAP), %@affiliation Ctr Rossendorf, Inst Ion Beam Phys & Mat Res, Dresden, Germany, %@affiliation Univ Fed Parana, Dept Phys, Curitiba, Parana BR-80060000 Brazil, %@affiliation Nagoya Univ, Dept Mat Proc Engn, Nagoya, Aichi Japan, %@affiliation Technol Inst Aeronaut, Dept Mech Engn, Sao Jose Dos Campos, SP Brazil, %B Brazilian Journal of Physics %@language English %P 1632-1637 %D 2004 %V 34 %A Ueda, Mario, %A Gomes, Geraldo Francisco, %A Kostov, K.
