Abstract
An austenitic stainless steel substantially comprising not more than 0.15% by weight of C, 2.56 - 4.0% by weight of Si, not more than 2.0% by weight of Mn, 8 - 22% by weight of Ni, 16 - 25% by weight of Cr, 0.001 - 0.05% by weight of at least one alkaline earth metal, 0 - 2.5% by weight of Al, 0 - 0.1% by weight of at least one rare earth metal, 0 - 1.0% by weight of at least one of Nb, Ta, Ti, Zr and Hf, 0 - 2.0% by weight of Cu and balance Fe is disclosed. This class of steels are superior to the known high Si oxidation-resisting austenitic stainless steels in oxidation resistance especially in resistance to scaling, are of the same level in high temperature strength, and are much less expensive.
