Abstract

The following work analyzed the changes in the properties of Fatigue in a 300M aeronautical steel after the application of thermochemical treatments of plasma nitriding and laser carburizing. The microstructural characterization of the formed layers and the hardness obtained after the surface treatments were conducted. Thus, a comparison was made between the two treatments to verify which one has better efficacy. It has been observed that the treatment of plasma nitriding improves significantly the fatigue properties of 300 M steel. It was also noted that laser carburizing was not efficient to improve fatigue life.
