Definitions

  • the system is brought to normal pressure with nitrogen as the inert gas flooded and the material returned to its treatment temperature heated from approx. 480 ° C to 520 ° C.
  • To enrich the surface Link layer with oxygen is then used for the oxidation process Water vapor to produce a nitrogen / water vapor mixture in managed the facility. After the oxidation process has ended, this will be the case treated material cooled with further nitrogen supply.
