The mechanism of the surface alloy layer is based on the known theories [5,6]. The proposed course of formation of the layers has been extended to decarburization stage of steel. The research included proving the presence of carbon-lean zone. The experiment included the analysis of the distribution of elements and microhardness measurement.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={The Mechanism of the Surface Alloy Layer Creation for Cast Steel}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/86334/PDF/22_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10266-012-0022-0}, keywords={composites, Composite layer, Ferrochromium, Cast, Mechanism of creation}, }
