Patent number: 6360936
Abstract: In a method of manufacturing composite sheet steel of maraging steel, wherein the composite sheet steel comprises an outer layer and an inner layer, wherein the outer layer is harder than the inner layer and the inner layer is more tenacious than the outer layer, the steel of the inner layer is produced with a chemical composition containing in percent by weight: C≦0.01, Si≦0.1, Mn≦0.1, P≦0.005, S≦0.005, Cu≦0.1, Mo 4.80 to 5.20, Ni 17.5 to 18.5 , Cr≦0.1, Ti 0.55 to 0.70, Co 8.0 to 9.0; and the steel of the outer layer is produced with purification in a zone melting process with a chemical composition containing in percent by weight: C≦0.01, Si<0.1, Mn 0.02 to 0.20, P≦0.005, S≦0.005, Cu 0.01 to 0.20, Mo 4.80 to 5.20, Ni 17.5 to 18.5, Cr 0.01 to 0.20, Ti 1.80 to 1.95, Co 14.0 to 15.5, Al 0.05 to 0.15, with the remainder being Fe and contaminants resulting from the manufacturing process, respectively.
