  • Patent number: 9506125
    Abstract: The present invention provides a maraging steel containing: 0.10?C?0.30 mass %, 6.0?Ni?9.4 mass %, 11.0?Co?20.0 mass %, 1.0?Mo?6.0 mass %, 2.0?Cr?6.0 mass %, 0.5?Al?1.3 mass %, and Ti?0.1 mass %, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities, and satisfying 1.00?A?1.08, in which A is 0.95+0.35×[C]?0.0092×[Ni]+0.011×[Co]?0.02×[Cr]?0.001×[Mo], where [C] indicates a content (mass %) of C, [Ni] indicates a content (mass %) of Ni, [Co] indicates a content (mass %) of Co, [Cr] indicates a content (mass %) of Cr, and [Mo] indicates a content (mass %) of Mo, respectively. The maraging steel has a tensile strength of 2,300 MPa or more and is also excellent in the toughness/ductility and fatigue characteristics.

  • Patent number: 6348108
    Abstract: Ups and downs having a cycle of not more than 5 &mgr;m and an amplitude of not less than 200 nm are formed in a part of not less than 70% per unit length of a prior-austenite grain boundary which is observed in a linear form when seen from a vertical plane by a series of steps of subjecting a steel in a state of austenite to a deformation in not less than 30% of a total area reduction rate at a temperature region which is lower than recrystallization temperature of austenite, and subsequently cooling a deformed steel without causing neither recrystallization nor phase transformation of a diffusion type.
