Nitrogen Diffusion and Stresses during Expanded Austenite Formation in Nitriding
Low-temperature nitriding of austenitic stainless steels or chromium containing alloys can produce expanded austenite, known as S-phase, with combined improvement in wear and corrosion resistance. In the paper a critical review of various models for nitrogen diffusion during nitriding is presented.

Decomposition kinetics of expanded austenite with high nitrogen contents
Abstract This paper addresses the decomposition kinetics of synthesized homogeneous expanded austenite formed by gaseous nitriding of stainless steel AISI 304L and AISI 316L with nitrogen contents up to 38 at.% nitrogen. Isochronal annealing experiments were carried out in both inert (N2) and reducing (H2) atmospheres.

Stress and Composition of Carbon Stabilized Expanded Austenite on Stainless Steel
Low-temperature gaseous carburizing of stainless steel is associated with a colossal supersaturation of the fcc lattice with carbon, without the development of carbides. This article addresses the simultaneous determination of stress and composition profiles in layers of carbon expanded austenite obtained by low-temperature gaseous carburizing of AISI ...

Determination of Concentration Dependent Diffusion Coefficients of Carbon in Expanded Austenite
In the present paper various experimental procedures to experimentally determine the concentration dependent diffusion coefficient of carbon in expanded austenite are evaluated. To this end thermogravimetric carburization was simulated for various experimental conditions and the evaluated composition dependent diffusivity of carbon derived from the ...
