Abstract

As an important means of material modification, chemical heat treatment has gone through several stages of development, from the initial exploration to the widespread application today, bringing remarkable progress to the industrial field. This article first sorts out the development history of chemical heat treatment, and then elaborates on its various classification methods, including carburizing, nitriding, etc. Chemical heat treatment has remarkable characteristics, such as effectively improving material performance, flexible operation, strong applicability, etc. These characteristics make chemical heat treatment have a broad application prospect in the field of material processing. Through the research in this article, it is hoped that it can provide a useful reference for the further development and application of chemical heat treatment technology.
