| In the most modern applications, stainless will also be treated by the Melonite process, a nitriding process that makes the surface file-hard and highly corrosion resistant. |
| On the other hand, the effects of the glow discharge were both heating and ion nitriding of the samples. |
| The nitriding process is based on the affinity of nascent nitrogen for iron and certain other. metallic elements. |
| Typical applications include processes involving annealing, brazing, carburizing, hardening, nitriding, normalizing, sintering, stress relieving and tempering. |
| Active screen plasma nitriding is one of the novel surface hardening methods which is usually used for formation of iron nitride coating. |
| However, the full effect of nitriding will not be realized unless alloy steel is selected. |
