Técnica de empaquetamiento en polvo., borurización, superficie dura, modelo de transferencia de masa, energía de activación, desgasteResumen
Este estudio se centró en el borurado en estado sólido del hierro puro ARMCO, utilizando un polvo Durborid con un contenido reducido de boro activo. Los procesos se llevaron a cabo a temperaturas comprendidas entre 850 y 1000°C y con tiempos de mantenimiento de 2 hasta 8 horas. Las interfaces entre las capas y el sustrato obtenidas mostraron un grado muy alto de columnaridad. El análisis por difracción de rayos X confirmó la presencia de boruros de hierro tipo Fe2B. El crecimiento de las capas de boruro siguió una relación parabólica con el tiempo determinada a partir de la formulación Lagrangiana. El espesor de los recubrimientos de boruro varió entre 41.50 ± 7.7 y 250 ± 29.5 µm. El valor de la energía de activación del B se 157.32 kJ mol-1. Los resultados obtenidos son útiles para determinar el espesor óptimo de la capa para aplicaciones industriales en las que el desgaste es el factor más importante.
