    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Thermochemical Surface Engineering of Steels, Second Edition presents up-to-date information on a range of techniques and their applications. This edition expands upon the materials presented in the first edition, now including a discussion of high temperature processes for stainless steels as well as a chapter on solution nitriding and a full update on current materials. Part One presents foundational information regarding Thermodynamics; Part Two discusses the requirements for improved fatigue resistance for materials exposed to thermochemical treatments. Part Three looks at nitriding, nitrocarburizing, and carburizing. Final sections look at specific low temperature carburizing and nitriding and discuss various thermochemical surface engineering methods.


    • Provides the latest information on the fundamentals of surface treatments and the performance of improved materials
    • Covers nitriding, nitrocarburizing, and carburizing of iron and iron carbon alloys, as well as solution nitriding
    • Examines how different thermochemical surface engineering methods can help against corrosion
