2. Case hardening Gear tooth Carburizing - pack & gas - add C from CO gas Nitriding - add N from NH 3 Carbonitriding - add C & N from CO & NH 3 Case must be Q & T, except for nitrided

3. Case hardening Alternate case hardening method Induction hardening - surface heating by high-frequency AC, then Q & T

4. Truck rear axle shaft Ford uses SAE 1050 steel with manganese content modified from 0.80 to 1.10% in rear axle shafts. Normally 0.60-0.90 Mn YS = 49 ksi, TS = 90 ksi, EL = 15% (hot-rolled) YS = 80 ksi, TS = 120 ksi (Q+T) depends on heat treat conditions Ford uses SAE 1050 steel with manganese content modified from 0.80 to 1.10% in rear axle shafts.

12. Corrosion Hint for exams (and life): A substance which is corrosive will corrode other substances SS is thus certainly non-corrosive But it is also non-corrodable (in most instances) Hint for exams (and life): A substance which is corrosive will corrode other substances SS is thus certainly non-corrosive But it is also non-corrodable (in most instances)

13. Corrosion Most corrosion is electrochemical Galvanic cell is necessary No corrosion if one of these is missing: anode cathode electrolyte electrical connection No corrosion if one of these is missing: anode cathode electrolyte electrical connection anode cathode electrolyte electrical connection

14. Corrosion Most corrosion is electrochemical Galvanic cell is necessary Corrosion at anode Me = Me +n + ne – (metal dissolves) Corrosion at anode Me = Me +n + ne – (metal dissolves) anode cathode electrolyte electrical connection No dissolution at cathode

15. Corrosion What constitutes an anode/cathode pair? Zn Cu electrolyte electrical connection Dissimilar metals Ex: Cu & Zn (Zn corrodes) Ex: Cu & Zn (Zn corrodes) How do we know? Many combos tried experimentally How do we know? Many combos tried experimentally
