Abstract

The chapter studies the triple equilibrium diagram of B-C-Fe system and its isothermal sections at 700, 800, 900 and 1000 °C which are used for determining the thermal-concentration conditions for boriding and phase composition of estimated layers which are formed under the saturation of iron-carbon smelts. The isothermal section of three-component equilibrium diagrams of smelts like Me-B-Fe (where Me is Cr, Mn, Mo, V, W) which can be used for determining the phase composition of boronized layers in alloy steels and the properties of obtained protective layers. Temperature-concentration conditions of boriding of multicomponent smelts (n > 4) can be simplified by using the schemes of these multicomponent diagrams in traditional coordinates: temperature-concentration of components. The authors propose and analyze the original method for building these schemes of multicomponent diagrams of smelts by using the developed divergent coordination grid, the law of areas (for building the distribution stencil of alloy elements in the foundation of concentration polyhedron) and the rule of eutectic reaction. The use of developed methods resulted in the construction of four-component (Fe-Ni-Cr-B) and five-component (Cr-Mo-Fe-W-B) diagrams, liquidus and solidus surfaces and polythermal cuts of different sections. The obtained schemes of multicomponent equilibrium diagrams were used as a technological blueprint while determining the temperature of boriding and the phase composition of high-temperature smelts and high-speed steels.
