Abstract

This work reports the feasibility of improving the strength properties of low C steels with nascent carbon and nitrogen released in situ from the cyanide content of cassava leaf. This has been studied as a function of time at a temperature of 860°C in pack cyaniding medium. A mathematical model for the estimation of hardness with depth as a function of residence time is presented. The result of the simulation of the model agrees approximately with experimental results.
