The boriding of steels was conducted by electrolysis in a bath containing borax and carborandum.
After the electrolysis, each thickness of the both borided layers of FeB and Fe2B was much more increased as compared with the boriding of the same kind of bath with no electrolysis.
The addition of carborandum into the bath was very effective in preventing the dissolution of iron, nickel, and chromium from the stainless steel crucible into the bath. Therefore, it was considered to be very effective in preserving boriding ability of the bath for a longer time.
The wear resistance of bonded layer of mild steel was higher than that of hard chromium plating.
