In this study, the factors, such as coating temperature T(K), reaction time t(sec) and mobile carbon content $C^*$ (wt%) of steels affecting, the growth rate of carbide layer were investigated in the reactive deposition and diffusion coating using the fluidized bed. From the results, the coating thickness d(cm) can be expressed by an equation. d=$C^*$$(KT)^{1/2}$, where K=K$circ$exp(~Q/RT), KTEX>$circ$ = 1.4$ imes$$10^{-2}cm^{-2}$/sec, and Q=46Kcal/ mol. It was in a good aggrement with the experimental results, reguardless of the diffusion coating method and the carbide layer. Therefore, if the mobile carbon content of carbon steels and alloyed steels is known, the thickness under coating conditions can be predicted from the previous equation.
