Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2072631A1] Stainless steel sheet comprises: carbon (0.05-0.3 wt.%); silicon (0.3-1 wt.%); manganese (0.5-3 wt.%); nickel (4-10 wt.%); chromium (15-20 wt.%); nitrogen (less than 0.2 wt.%); phosphorus (0.05 wt.%); sulfur (0.015 wt.%); optionally vanadium (0.1-0.5 wt.%); optionally molybdenum (3 wt.%); optionally copper (0.5 wt.%); and the rest of the composition consisting of iron and inevitable impurities resulting from processing, where a microstructure of the steel is mainly austenitic steel, and average size of austenite grains is less than 2 mm. Independent claims are included for: (1) a process for preparing the stainless steel sheet, comprising supplying steel composition, casting the steel in the form of slab, hot rolling the slab to obtain a hot-rolled sheet, annealing the hot rolled sheet at a temperature of greater than 1000[deg] C, pickling the hot-rolled sheet, cold rolling the hot-rolled sheet at a reduction rate of greater than 40%, and carrying out a heat treatment on the cold rolled sheet; (2) an installation for a recrystallization annealing of austenitic stainless steel sheet, comprising a rapid heating device for heating the sheet during the heating phase by electromagnetic induction; and (3) a stainless steel mechanical component obtained from the sheet.
