Decarburization (or decarbonization) is the process of decreasing carbon content, which is the opposite of carburization.
Decarburization (or decarbonization) is the process of decreasing carbon content, which is the opposite of carburization.
The term is typically used in metallurgy, describing the decrease of the content of carbon in metals (usually steel). Decarburization occurs when the metal is heated to temperatures of 700 °C or above when carbon in the metal reacts with gases containing oxygen or hydrogen. The removal of carbon removes hard carbide phases resulting in a softening of the metal, primarily at the surfaces which are in contact with the decarburizing gas.
