Abstract

The X6CrNiTi1810 austenitic stainless steel samples nitrided by plasma immersion ion implantation at 300 °C/3 h are studied by slow positron implantation and conversion electrons Mössbauer spectroscopies completed with X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. The surface layers consist of N-Fe expanded austenite and -Fe2N nitride. The changes in hyperfine parameters and relative representation of both phases during the interrupted long-time annealing at 150 °C are discussed from the point of view of nitrogen migration and changes in defect structure.
