| 2001 | Invention patented by Hirofumi Nakamura and Jun Furukawa on June 6th, 2001. Abstract: The Cu precipitation strengthened steel of the invention comprises, on the mass percent basis, C: 0.02-0.10%, Mn: 0.3-2.5%, Cu: 0.50-2.0%, Ni: 0.3-4.0% and Ti: 0.004-0.03% and further comprises Si: 0.01-0.4% and/or Al: 0.001-0.1%, with the contents of incidental impurities being P: not more than 0.025%, S: not more than 0.01%, N: not more than 0.006% and Se: not more than 0.005%, with the value of Pcm defined by the formula (1) given below being not more than 0.28. The steel material made of this Cu precipitation strengthened steel has good and stable CTOD toughness and is suited for use as a steel material for the construction of large industrial machines, ships, marine structures, line pipes, tanks, bridges and like welded structures. ##EQU1## In the above formula, C, Si, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, V and B respectively represent the contents (in mass percent) of the respective elements. |
