  • Patent number: 11060172
    Abstract: Provided is an abrasion-resistant steel plate which has high hardness up to the mid-thickness part thereof although the steel plate is 50 mm or more, and can be manufactured at low cost. The abrasion-resistant steel plate has a specific chemical composition having DI* of 120 or more, where DI* is defined by the following Formula (1): DI*=33.85×(0.1×C)0.5×(0.7×Si+1)×(3.33×Mn+1)×(0.35×Cu+1)×(0.36×Ni+1)×(2.16×Cr+1)×(3×Mo+1)×(1.75×V+1)×(1.5×W+1) . . . (1), has HB1 of 360 HBW10/3000 to 490 HBW10/3000, HB1 being a Brinell hardness at a depth of 1 mm from a surface, has a hardness ratio, HB1/2 to HB1, of 75% or more, HB1/2 being a Brinell hardness at a mid-thickness position, and has a plate thickness of 50 mm or more.

  • Patent number: 9879334
    Abstract: Provided is an abrasion resistant steel plate or steel sheet, suitable for use in construction machines, industrial machines, and the like, and a method for manufacturing the same. A steel plate or steel sheet has a composition containing 0.20% to 0.27% C, 0.05% to 1.0% Si, 0.30% to 0.90% Mn, P, S, 0.005% to 0.025% Nb, 0.008% to 0.020% Ti, 0.1% or less Al, and 0.0010% to 0.0060% N on a mass % basis, the composition further containing one or more of Cr, Mo, W, and B, the composition containing one or more of Cu, Ni, V, an REM, Ca, and Mg as required, the remainder being Fe and inevitable impurities. After being heated, a semi-finished product having the steel composition is hot-rolled and is subjected to reheat-quenching or direct quenching.
