An austenitic stainless steel for use for high temperature concentrated sulfuric acid which comprises, on weight basis, 0.04% or less of C, 5-7% of Si, 2% or less of Mn, 15-25% of Cr, 4-24% of Ni, 0.01-1.07% of Pd and the rest consisting of Fe and unavoidable contaminant materials. By the incorporation of small amount of palladium in a basal austenitic stainless steel containing the essential three elements of Cr, Ni and Si, a superior corrosion resistance against highly concentrated high temperature sulfuric acid is attained.
