Abstract
A method for forming a boron-containing carbide layer on the surface of a ferrous alloy article by dipping the article in a molten bath. The bath is made by introducing boron and an oxide of a Va-Group element or of chromium into molten boric acid or a borate bath. The ratio of the boron to the oxide is between 7% and 40%. The carbide layer formed is very hard and has good oxidation resistance.
