The silicide layers deposited on the AISI 304 stainless steel were formed in the molten salts at 800 "C using the molten mixture of different mole ratios of Na2SiF6 to Si using the siliconizing agent and the molten halogenide of alkali metals of NaCl+KCl+NaF at mole ratio of 2:2:1 as the siliconizing agent carrier. In order to reveal the siliconizing mechanism in the molten salts, the phase of the silicide layer was analyzed by X-ray diffractometry. Meanwhile, the micrographs and the composition of the cross section of the silicide layer were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) attached with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). The results show that the silicon content in the layer depends on the ion concentration of SiF62~ in the molten salts. The dissolving of SiO2 in the molten salts supplies the SiF62~ continuously and as a result, the silicon content in the layer is enhanced.%以n(NaCl)∶n(KCl)∶n(NaF)=2∶2∶1碱金属卤化物混合体系做载体,采用不同摩尔比的Na2SiF6和Si粉作渗硅剂,在800℃下利用熔融盐法分别对AISI 304不锈钢进行渗硅处理.采用X射线衍射仪(XRD)分析渗硅层的物相组成,用附带能量色散谱仪(EDS)附件的扫描电子显微镜(SEM)研究渗层截面的形貌和成分,分析熔盐法渗硅层的形成机理.结果表明:融盐中SiF62-的浓度决定渗层中Si元素的含量,由于SiO2在融盐体系中的溶解,融盐中SiF62-得到补充,渗层中Si元素的含最进一步提高.
