I need to heat steel up to around 640C for about 30 - 60 minutes through induction heating. At that point I will allow it to come to room temp naturally. I cannot do this in a vacuum nor protective atmosphere (gas purging the system). Are there other ways I can prevent oxidation?
Which steels should I look into? We typically use AISI 4140. Will surface coatings help?
