Abstract (en)

A steel was developed with a chemical composition consisting of (mass%) C (0.60-2.00%), Si (0.01-3.00%), Mn (16.0-30.0%), Al (0.07-6.00%), V (0.50-3.00%), N (0.500% or less), P (0.030% or less), S (0.030% or less), Cr (0-10.00%), Mo (0-3.00%), Cu (0-3.00%), Ni (0-20.00%), Ti (0-3.00%), Nb (0-3.00%), Zr (0-3.00%), Ta (0-6.00%), Hf (0-6.00%), W (0-6.00%), Ca (0-0.0050%), Mg (0-0.0050%), and B (0-0.0150%), with the balance being Fe and impurities. The value in Formula (i) is between 0.55 and 1.54. In the steel microstructure, the total volume fraction of α' martensite and ferrite is less than 0.1%, the volume fraction of ε martensite, which has an HCP structure, is 10% or less, and the balance is austenite. The number density of carbonitride precipitates with an equivalent circular diameter of 5-100 nm is 100 particles/µm<sup>2</sup> or more, the yield stress is 862 MPa or more, the SFE at 25°C is 30 mJ/m<sup>2</sup> or more, and the γ grain size is 100 µm or smaller.
