This paper will study on the effect of the duration of solution nitriding towards the microstructure and micro-hardness of AISI 316L stainless steel. The AISI 316L stainless steel will be exposed to the high temperature gas nitriding process at 1200oC by using the 50% of ammonia gas and 50% of ni...
