Ammonia, which dissociates into hydrogen and nitrogen at high temperatures, is used as the gas for releasing atomic nitrogen.

[0009] The compound layer is almost pore-free. The ratio of γ' phase to ε phase can be adjusted by processing parameters, and in the most preferred case the γ' layer is 100%. Austenitic and high chromium-containing steels can each be nitrided without chemical pretreatment. The method is suitable for processing workpieces in any number and without geometrical restrictions. The number depends solely on the size of the furnace available. A typical method for a chamber furnace is 0.2
It can be heated to temperatures below 1200° C. at an absolute internal pressure of ~10 MPa. The process parameters, namely temperature, time, absolute pressure and partial pressure of the nitrogen release gas, can be adjusted to provide optimal process conditions for each workpiece. Values for the nitriding temperature of 500 DEG to 900 DEG C. have proven advantageous. Furthermore, it is important that the nitriding be carried out under constant pressure over the entire nitriding time. Pressure fluctuations deteriorate the good properties and reproducibility of the compound layer. The processing time depends on the type of steel and the desired layer thickness.
