Summary

Corrosion resistance of steel 30MnB5 is studied after carbonitriding, after conventional quenching, and without treatment. Corrosion tests are performed for from 24 to 168 h in two acidic environments (in a hydrochloric acid solution with 10% mole fraction and in fertilizer-containing soil). It is shown that the rate of corrosion of the steel in both environments after carbonitriding is lower than after quenching).
