PlasOx process
Nitrocarburising in
plasma with subsequent oxidation treatment (plasox)
influences work-piece properties, specifically with regard to corrosion
resistance, wear resistance and anti-frictional properties.
The important factor
of the Plasox process is that the oxidisation is controlled to avoid
and produce pure magnetite (
)
which is highly corrosion resistant.
The surface finish
on components which have been plasox processed is an
aesthetically pleasing black finish.
The Plasox process is environmentally friendly as it is entirely non-polluting.
