    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitriding

    In gas nitriding the donor is a nitrogen-rich gas, usually ammonia (NH 3), which is why it is sometimes known as ammonia nitriding. [2] When ammonia comes into contact with the heated work piece it dissociates into nitrogen and hydrogen. The nitrogen then diffuses onto the surface of the material creating a nitride layer.
