In this article, the formation of complex diffusion boride layers on the metastable austenitic Cr—Mn—N steel by powder method is investigated. Phase and chemical compositions, thickness, microhardness, and wear resistance of boride layers obtained on the metastable austenite Cr—Mn—N steel are determined. As established, the application of an external magnetic field (EMF) leads to a redistribution of the boride-phases’ proportion in the surface layers and to the changes of the crystal-lattice periods. EMF allows reducing the time of details’ saturation by 1.5—2 times, increasing boride-layers’ microhardness to 19—19.5 GPa and increasing their wear resistance by 2.4—2.7 times compared with Cr—Mn—N steel without protective coating.
Key words: boriding, wear resistant, microhardness, diffusion, magnetic field.
