AB In the performed experiment, changes in the microstructure of steels S265 and X6CrNiTi18-10 due to their chemical-thermal treatment by boriding were studied. The boriding process was performed in a Durborid boriding powder at 900 0C. During this process, surface layers of Fe-B borides were formed in both analyzed sorts of steels. The layers differed in their morphology and composition due to the different degree of alloying of the matrix of analyzed steels by additive elements. The formed Fe-B layers showed high adhesive and cohesive resistance in both materials. Due to changes in the micro-structure of S265 steel, especially due to significant coarsening of the original grain of its matrix, its resistance to tribological abrasion after the boriding process decreased. The opposite effect was ob-served for X6CrNiTi18-10 steels. As a result of boriding, both analyzed materials changed their corro-sion resistance.
