A 1% Zr-Mo alloy was nitrided in the temperature range in Mo. The effects of employing an atmosphere of nitrogen and of ammonia during the isothermal heat treatment were compared. The dispersed phases were studied metallographically, and microhardness traverses made of the diffusion layers. The results are discussed in terms of the relationship between hardness, particle sizes, and diffusion rates. (auth)
