Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9932672A1] An ultra-high strength, weldable, low alloy steel, containing less than 9 wt.% nickel, with excellent cryogenic temperature toughness in the base plate and in the heat affected zone (HAZ) when welded, having a tensile strength greater than 830 MPa (120 ksi) and a microstructure comprising predominantly fine-grained lath martensite and/or fine-grained lower bainite, is prepared by heating a steel slab comprising iron and some or all of the additives carbon, manganese, nickel, nitrogen, copper, chrominum, molybdenum, silicon, niobium, vanadium, titanium, aluminum, and boron; reducing the slab to form plate in one or more passes in a temperature range in which austenite recrystallizes; finish rolling the plate in one or more passes in a temperature range below the austenite recrystallization temperature and above the Ar3 transformation temperature; quenching the finish rolled plate (10''') to at a suitable Quench Stop temperature; stopping the quenching; and tempering the plate (10''') at a suitable temperature for a period of time sufficient to cause precipitation of hardening particles.
