Abstract
Plasticity increase of steel products after diffusion boriding was achieved by the formation of the composite heterogeneous structures in the surface layer. Boriding was carried out by microarc heating. Coating was applied on the surface of the item of low carbon steel containing boric acid. Then it was plunged into coal powder and was heated by electric current. Composite coating with the depth of 0.2 mm was formed as a result of treatment. It consists of the areas of eutectoid mixture with microhardness of 4500 – 4700 MPa and boride eutectic with microhardness of 15.0 – 17.0 HPa. The carburized area with eutectoid structure was formed under the composite layer. It passed to the original ferritepearlite structure.
