Thermochemical diffusion treatments introduce interstitial elements, such as carbon, nitrogen and boron, or combinations of carbon and nitrogen, into a ferrous metal surface at elevated temperatures. However, the processes are not confined to interstitial diffusion; metallic substitutional elements or metalloids are used in processes such as chromising, aluminising and siliconising.
