Study of Surface Treatment by Ionic Plasma and Self-Protective Pastes of AISI 304 and 316L Stainless Steels: Chemical, Microstructural, and Nanohardness Evaluation

This work studied the effect of self-protective paste nitriding (SPN) and ion plasma nitriding (IPN) on the surface chemistry, microstructure, and nanohardness of AISI 304 and 316L stainless steels, with both treated at 440 °C for 5 h. Surface modifications analyzed using SEM and nanoindentation rev...
