Abstract
An austenitic stainless steel according to the present invention has a chemical composition containing, by mass %: C: 0.01 to 0.15%; Si: 2.0% or less; Mn: 3.0% or less; Cr: 10.0 to 20.0%; Ni: 5.0 to 13.0%; N: 0.01 to 0.30%; Nb: 0 to 0.5%; Ti: 0 to 0.5%; and V: 0 to 0.5%, with the balance: Fe and impurities, wherein an average grain size is 10.0 μm or less, a difference in value of an average lattice constant d(={d×I+d×I+d×I+d×I}/{I+I+I+I}) of an austenite phase between a surface portion and a center portion is 0.010 Å or more, and a value of a diffraction peak integrated intensity ratio r (=100×ΣI/ΣI) at a surface is 95% or more.
