The paper presents results of the experimental investigation of the boronizing process on nonsintering iron powder samples (NC100.24, Höganäs, Sweden). Experiments are planned within the limits of applicability of simultaneous sintering at chemical-thermal treatment process (boronizing). The simlex plan of 15 experimental points was used for the experiment, while a polynomial function of fourth degree was employed in the modeling of a mixture composition based on the volume changes, porosity and the depth layer changes. Boronizing was carried out in mixture with born carbide by addition of ammonium bifluoride, ammonium chloride and boron potassium fluoride as activators, by proportion definited plan
