10.1.1 Ion cementation

Ion cementation is a low-pressure (100 to 1,000 Pa) surface treatment process using a glow discharge to dissociate a hydrocarbon into ions and/or ionized molecules. These active ionized species are accelerated towards the parts to be treated and implant themselves on the surface. Under the effect of temperature, the carbon thus...
