Description
本発明は、特に高温強度や耐酸化性が必要な排気系部材などの使用に最適な熱疲労特性
に優れたCr含有鋼に関するものである。
The present invention relates to a Cr-containing steel excellent in thermal fatigue characteristics, which is optimal for use in exhaust system members that particularly require high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance.
自動車の排気マニホールド、フロントパイプおよびセンターパイプなどの排気系部材は
、エンジンから排出される高温の排気ガスを通すため、排気部材を構成する材料には耐酸
化性、高温強度、熱疲労特性など多様な特性が要求される。
Exhaust system members such as automobile exhaust manifolds, front pipes, and center pipes pass high-temperature exhaust gas exhausted from the engine, so the materials that make up the exhaust members have various characteristics such as oxidation resistance, high-temperature strength, and thermal fatigue characteristics. Is required.
従来、自動車排気部材には鋳鉄が使用されるのが一般的であったが、排ガス規制の強化
、エンジン性能の向上、車体軽量化などの観点から、ステンレス鋼製の排気マニホールド
が使用される様になった。また、近年では排ガス温度が800〜900℃程度と高温化し

性を有する材料が要望されている。
Conventionally, cast iron is generally used for automobile exhaust members, but stainless steel exhaust manifolds are used from the viewpoints of stricter exhaust gas regulations, improved engine performance, and lighter vehicle body. Became. In recent years, the exhaust gas temperature has increased to about 800 to 900 ° C., and there is a demand for a material having oxidation resistance, high temperature strength, and thermal fatigue characteristics in an environment used at a high temperature for a long time.
ステンレス鋼の中でオーステナイト系ステンレス鋼は、耐熱性や加工性に優れているが
、熱膨張係数が大きいために、排気マニホールドの様に加熱・冷却を繰り返し受ける部材
に適用した場合、熱疲労破壊が生じやすい。
Among stainless steels, austenitic stainless steel has excellent heat resistance and workability, but due to its large thermal expansion coefficient, thermal fatigue failure occurs when it is applied to a member that repeatedly receives heating and cooling, such as an exhaust manifold. Is likely to occur.

ト増につながるため、経済的では無い欠点も有する場合があった。
On the other hand, since ferritic stainless steel has a smaller coefficient of thermal expansion than austenitic stainless steel, it has excellent thermal fatigue characteristics. Also, steel with adjusted alloy addition amount such as Cr, Mo, Nb is used to increase the high temperature strength according to the exhaust gas temperature. As the exhaust gas temperature increases, the amount of these alloys added has increased, but the thermal fatigue life, which is the most important characteristic, has not necessarily increased. Further, excessive increase in the amount of alloy added leads to an increase in cost, and may have a disadvantage that is not economical.
下記特許文献1には、自動車排気マニホールド用に、耐酸化性、高温強度、熱疲労特性に優れたフェライト系ステンレス鋼が開示されている。Cr量が11〜14%と比較的低Cr含有量であり、Si添加により900℃以上における耐酸化性、高温強度、熱疲労特性を向上させる技術である。この中で熱疲労特性は、200〜900℃において50%拘束した条件で成され、発明鋼は熱疲労寿命が長くなっているが、拘束率が低かったり、800℃程度の温度になり、付与されるサイクルが長くなる条件では十分な特性が得られなかった。この要因としては、長時間使用環境に曝された条件、即ち材料を時効処理した際の高温強度および高温延性が不足していたためと考えられる。また、特許文献1ではTiとNbの複合添加の実施例があるが、この場合実際の成形部品に加工する途中で割れが生じる現象(2次加工割れ)が発生し、部材成形が出来なかったり、微小割れから熱疲労特性が著しく劣化する場合があった。
下記特許文献2には、Si/Mnを制御して900℃での耐力を15Mpa以上とし高温特性を向上させる発明が開示されている。この場合も、製品板の900℃における引張耐力を規定しただけでは、長時間使用環境においては不十分であった。また、Mnが0.7〜1.3%添加されているため延性が低く、部材に加工する際の成形性や、高温延性の低下による熱疲労寿命の低下が生じる問題があった。 Patent Document 2 below discloses an invention in which Si / Mn is controlled so that the proof stress at 900 ° C. is 15 Mpa or more and the high temperature characteristics are improved. Also in this case, it was not sufficient in a long-time use environment only by specifying the tensile strength of the product plate at 900 ° C. Further, since Mn is added in an amount of 0.7 to 1.3%, the ductility is low, and there is a problem that the thermal fatigue life is reduced due to the formability when processing into a member and the high temperature ductility is reduced.
下記特許文献3には、成分調整により900℃で1時間保持した後の0.2%耐力を18MPa以上とすることが開示されている。ここでは、高温で1時間以上の保持を行うことで、
使用環境下での強度を向上させることが技術思想となっているが、熱サイクルを受ける場
合、高温強度を向上させるだけでは熱疲労寿命は向上しない場合があった。
Patent Document 3 below discloses that the 0.2% yield strength after holding at 900 ° C. for 1 hour by adjusting the components is 18 MPa or more. Here, by holding at high temperature for 1 hour or more,
Although it has been a technical idea to improve the strength under the use environment, when subjected to a thermal cycle, the thermal fatigue life may not be improved only by improving the high temperature strength.
下記特許文献4〜6には、高温特性に優れたフェライト系ステンレス鋼として、Bを含有した鋼が開示されているが、加工性改善の観点で添加されており、従来知見において高温特性への影響は明確では無かった。加工性改善におけるBの役割は、粒界偏析による粒界強度を向上させて、2次加工性を向上させるものであるが、本発明においてはB添加により析出物を微細化させて、高温強度向上を図ったものである。また、特許文献4〜6にはVが添加されているが、溶接部の耐食性向上、CやNの固定による加工性の向上の観点で添加されている場合があった。

In particular, it is a relatively inexpensive material with excellent oxidation resistance, high temperature strength, and thermal fatigue characteristics in an environment where the exhaust temperature is close to 800 ° C and is used for a long time at high temperatures or repeatedly subjected to heating and cooling. It is to provide a Cr-containing steel.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors investigated the relationship between the components and the high temperature deformation characteristics regarding the oxidation resistance, high temperature strength and thermal fatigue characteristics of the Cr-containing steel. In particular, considering the environment subject to thermal cycling, we carefully investigated how the deformation characteristics in the low temperature range affect the thermal fatigue life in addition to the deformation characteristics in the high temperature range. And as a result of repeating various examinations in order to achieve this purpose, the following knowledge was obtained. As this feature, Cr and Si are added mainly from the viewpoint of oxidation resistance,
From the viewpoint of improving the high temperature characteristics, by adjusting each component in the new component added with Nb-Ti composite and further adding V and B, the strength and ductility during long-time use are ensured and the thermal fatigue characteristics are greatly improved.

以下に本発明の限定理由について説明する。 The reason for limitation of the present invention will be described below.

いほど良いため、0.015%以下とした。但し、過度の低減は精錬コストの増加に繋が

C deteriorates moldability and corrosion resistance and causes a decrease in high-temperature strength. Therefore, the smaller the content, the better. Therefore, the content is set to 0.015% or less. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so 0.001 to 0.005% is further desirable.

N, like C, deteriorates moldability and corrosion resistance and causes a decrease in high-temperature strength. Therefore, the smaller the content, the better. Therefore, the content was made 0.015% or less. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so 0.001 to 0.010% is further desirable.

Si is an important element for improving oxidation resistance and high temperature characteristics in the present invention. Oxidation resistance and high-temperature strength improve with an increase in Si content, and the effect is manifested at 0.8% or more. Further, Si promotes the precipitation of intermetallic compounds mainly composed of Fe and Nb called a Laves phase at a high temperature. If the Laves phase precipitates excessively, the solid solution N necessary to ensure high temperature strength
The amount of b is reduced. Moreover, when Si is added excessively, the room temperature workability deteriorates, and the ductility during long-time use is lowered, resulting in a decrease in the thermal fatigue life. From these viewpoints, the upper limit was made 1.0%. Furthermore, it is 0.8 to 0.9% desirably.
Mnは、脱酸剤として添加され、高温強度を向上させる元素であり、0.2%以上から
効果が発現する。また、Tiとの複合添加鋼においては、Mn添加により連続酸化時にTiの酸化を抑制し、耐酸化性が向上することが判明した。一方、1.5%超の添加は延性を低下させる他、MnSを形成して耐食性を低下させる。また、過度な添加は、耐酸化性の劣化をもたらす。よって、0.2〜1.5%とした。更に、高温延性やスケール密着性を考慮すると、0.3〜1.0%が望ましい。
Mn is an element that is added as a deoxidizer and improves the high-temperature strength, and the effect is manifested from 0.2% or more. In addition, it has been found that, in a composite additive steel with Ti, oxidation of Ti is suppressed during continuous oxidation by addition of Mn, and oxidation resistance is improved. On the other hand, addition over 1.5% lowers the ductility and forms MnS to lower the corrosion resistance. Moreover, excessive addition brings about deterioration of oxidation resistance. Therefore, it was set to 0.2 to 1.5%. Furthermore, when considering high temperature ductility and scale adhesion, 0.3 to 1.0% is desirable.
Pは、MnやSi同様に固溶強化元素であるため、材質上その含有量は少ないほど良いため、上限は0.03%が望ましい。但し、過度の低減は精錬コストの増加に繋がるため、下限は0.01%が望ましい。更に、精錬コストと耐食性を考慮すると0.012〜0.025%が望ましい。 Since P is a solid solution strengthening element like Mn and Si, the lower the content, the better. Therefore, the upper limit is preferably 0.03%. However, excessive reduction leads to an increase in refining costs, so the lower limit is preferably 0.01%. Furthermore, if considering the refining cost and corrosion resistance, 0.012 to 0.025% is desirable.

S is an element that deteriorates the corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, but since the effect of improving the workability by combining with Ti or C is manifested from 0.0001%, the lower limit was made 0.0001%. On the other hand, the upper limit is set to 0.01% because the high-temperature strength decreases because it combines with Ti and C by appropriate addition to reduce the amount of solid solution Ti and causes coarsening of precipitates. Furthermore, if considering refining costs and high-temperature oxidation characteristics, 0.0010 to 0.0090% is desirable.
Crは、本願発明において、耐酸化性確保のために必須な元素である。13%未満では

Cr is an essential element for securing oxidation resistance in the present invention. If it is less than 13%, the effect is not exhibited, and if it exceeds 15%, the workability is lowered or the toughness is deteriorated. Furthermore, considering high temperature ductility and manufacturing cost, 13.2 to 14.5%
Is desirable.

Cuは、高温強度向上に有効であるが、延性を低下させたり、耐酸化性に悪影響を及ぼ
すことから、0.2%以下とした。
Cu is effective for improving the high-temperature strength, but lowers the ductility and adversely affects the oxidation resistance, so the content was made 0.2% or less.

Nb is an element necessary for improving the high-temperature strength by solid solution strengthening and precipitate refinement strengthening. In addition, C and N are fixed as carbonitrides, contributing to the development of the recrystallization texture that affects the corrosion resistance and r value of the product plate. These effects appear from 0.3% or more. On the other hand, in the environment of use, when it precipitates as a Lafes phase depending on the temperature, the effect is saturated even if added excessively because it loses the solid solution strengthening ability. Moreover, excessive addition will reduce the ductility in a low temperature range and will shorten a thermal fatigue life. In the present invention, the amount of dissolved Nb is ensured by composite addition with Ti. In this case, the action is saturated at 0.55%, so the content is set to 0.3 to 0.55%. Furthermore, if considering moldability, intergranular corrosion property and production cost, 0.32 to 0.45% is desirable.

Ti is an element that combines with C, N, and S to improve corrosion resistance, intergranular corrosion resistance, and deep drawability. In addition, in the combined addition with Nb, addition of an appropriate amount brings about improvement in high-temperature strength and high-temperature ductility after being exposed at high temperature for a long time, thereby improving thermal fatigue characteristics. These effects are manifested from 0.05% or more, but addition of more than 0.2% increases the amount of solid solution Ti and deteriorates the formability, as well as generation of surface flaws, lower toughness, and oxidation resistance. In order to bring about deterioration of property, it was made 0.05 to 0.2%. Furthermore, if considering the manufacturability, 0.05 to 0.15% is desirable.
Vは、0.01%以上の添加により微細な炭窒化物を形成し、析出強化作用が生じて高温強度向上に寄与する。一方、0.2%超の添加で低温延性が低下し、逆に熱疲労寿命は低下してしまうため、上限を0.2%とした。更に、製造コストや製造性を考慮すると、0.08〜0.15%が望ましい。 V, when added in an amount of 0.01% or more, forms fine carbonitrides and causes a precipitation strengthening action, thereby contributing to an improvement in high temperature strength. On the other hand, addition of over 0.2% lowers the low temperature ductility and conversely reduces the thermal fatigue life, so the upper limit was made 0.2%. Furthermore, if considering the manufacturing cost and manufacturability, 0.08 to 0.15% is desirable.
Alは、脱酸元素として添加される他、耐酸化性、固溶強化により高温強度を向上させる元素であり、本願発明において必須元素である。その作用は0.015%から発現するが、1.0%超の添加は硬質化したり、表面疵の発生や溶接性を劣化させるため、0.015〜1.0%とした。更に、精錬コストを考慮する0.03〜0.7%が望ましい。 In addition to being added as a deoxidizing element, Al is an element that improves high-temperature strength by oxidation resistance and solid solution strengthening, and is an essential element in the present invention. The effect is manifested from 0.015%, but addition of more than 1.0% hardens or deteriorates surface defects and weldability, so the content was made 0.015 to 1.0%. Furthermore, 0.03 to 0.7% considering the refining cost is desirable.

B is an element that improves the secondary workability during product press working. In particular, Ti-added steel is an essential element in the present invention because secondary processing cracks are likely to occur. In addition, it has been found that the component system to which Nb and Ti are added and Si is added as in the present invention contributes to the improvement of the high temperature strength. In general, B is (Fe, Cr) 23 (C, B) at high temperatures.
6 or Cr2B is formed or segregated at grain boundaries, but in the component system to which Si is added, these precipitates are not precipitated, and it has been found that there is an effect of finely depositing the above-mentioned Laves. . The Laves phase brings about a decrease in the amount of solid solution Nb and usually coarsens, so there is almost no high-temperature strengthening ability after long-term aging in particular, but because B precipitates finely,
It has precipitation strengthening ability and contributes to improvement of high temperature strength. As a factor for causing B to finely precipitate the Laves phase, it is presumed that the interfacial energy is lowered due to grain boundary segregation, and the grain boundary is hardly precipitated. These effects are manifested at 0.0002% or more. However, excessive addition deteriorates the hardness and intergranular corrosion, and also causes weld cracks. Therefore, the content was made 0.0002 to 0.0010%.
Furthermore, if considering moldability and manufacturing cost, 0.0003 to 0.0007% is desirable.
In the case of combined addition of Ti and Nb, it has been found that if both of them are added excessively, the solid solution Ti and the solid solution Nb increase and the room temperature ductility is remarkably lowered. In this study, as shown in FIG. 1, (Nb + 1.
By setting 9 × Ti) / (C + N) ≦ 50, the elongation at break at room temperature can be secured at 32% or more. Here, JIS No. 13 B specimens were sampled in the rolling direction with respect to 14% Cr steel having a Ti, Nb, C, and N amount and a plate thickness of 2 mm, a tensile test was performed, and the elongation at break was measured. Elongation at break is 3
If it is 2% or more, it is at a level where cracking and constriction do not occur even if press working from the plate material to the exhaust member or bending or pipe expansion after processing into the pipe shape.

It was also found that ductility is important in addition to high temperature strength after aging for improving the thermal fatigue life. Here, the thermal fatigue test will be described. The product plate is made by electro-welding welding (outer diameter 38
. 1 mm) and subjected to a thermal fatigue test. The thermal fatigue test was conducted with a computer-controlled electrohydraulic control fatigue tester. The temperature cycle to be applied is 120se from 200 to 800 ° C.
The temperature was raised at c and held at 800 ° C. for 30 seconds, then cooled to 300 ° C. in 120 seconds,
Furthermore, it was set as the pattern cooled to 90 degreeC in 90 seconds. Heating was performed with a high-frequency induction heating coil, and cooling was performed by supplying air into the test tube. The restraint rate was set so as to give a compressive strain so as to be a constant ratio with respect to the free expansion amount. That is, for example, in the case of 50% restraint, compressive strain was mechanically applied so that the amount of expansion was half of the free expansion. The chemical components of the test materials are shown in Table 1. Steel A is a compatible steel of the present invention, and steel B is a comparative steel. Here, the steel B is a heat-resistant stainless steel plate that is used for general purposes. From FIG. 2, the steel of the present invention has a longer life than the comparative example at any constraint. This is because high ductility is maintained in the low temperature region of the thermal cycle, in addition to the fact that there is almost no decrease in strength even when aging deterioration of high temperature strength, that is, long-term thermal cycling is applied. While undergoing a thermal cycle, a compressive load is applied to the material at a high temperature, and creep deformation or stress relaxation phenomenon occurs at 800 ° C. Therefore, an increase in 0.2% proof stress at 800 ° C. It is considered effective for extension. Meanwhile, 800
In the cooling process from ℃ to 200 ℃, the material is given tensile stress. This tensile stress is much larger than the compressive stress in the high temperature region, and when damage (defect) occurs in the thermal cycle, the plastic deformation at this portion is remarkable. Therefore, it is considered that an increase in ductility (drawing) at 200 ° C. of the material has an effect of suppressing damage progress in the cooling process. 3 and 4 show the tensile strength and drawing at high temperature after aging treatment at 800 ° C. The steel of the present invention has a high strength at a high temperature strength of 20 MPa or higher and a drawing value at 200 ° C. of 35% or higher even when subjected to an aging treatment at 800 ° C. for 10 hours or longer. This means that the strength at the highest temperature is high and the ductility at the lowest temperature is high even when subjected to a long thermal cycle treatment in the thermal fatigue process. As a result, it is considered that the thermal fatigue life is improved at any of the restraints as shown in FIG. In the conventional invention, the technical idea was only to improve the strength at the maximum temperature when subjected to a thermal cycle, but in the present invention, the thermal fatigue life is remarkably improved by improving the ductility at the minimum temperature. I found it.

The improvement of the aperture value at 200 ° C. is considered to be due to the fact that the elongation at break and the aging deterioration described above were suppressed. That is, the present invention has revealed that the balance of addition of TI and Nb is important. On the other hand, for improvement of high temperature strength at 800 ° C., solid solution N
The amount of b and the amount of solid solution Ti have an influence. FIG. 5 shows the amount of solid solution Nb + solution Ti after aging at 800 ° C.
The relationship between the amount and the high temperature strength at 800 ° C. is shown. When the solid solution Nb amount + solid solution Ti amount is 0.08% or more, the high-temperature strength at 800 ° C. is 20 MPa or more. Higher temperature strength than 20MPa
In order to obtain the above and improve the thermal fatigue life, the amount of solid solution Nb + the amount of solid solution Ti was set to 0.08% or more.
本願発明では、適正量のTiをNbと複合添加することで、長時間時効後の高温強度、高温延性の向上をもたらして熱疲労特性を向上させているが、逆に耐酸化性に対して劣化作用がある。本願発明に示すSi、Cr、Mn、Tiを含有する鋼を大気中で連続酸化すると、スケールは、外層にはTiO2、Cr、Mnを主に含むスピネル型酸化物が、内層にはCr2O3が形成される。Ti量が増加するにつれ、内層のCr2O3皮膜が厚くなり耐酸化性が劣化する。本発明者らは、Mnの影響について検討したところ、Mnを増加させると、外層のTiO2量が減少して、内層のCr2O3皮膜の成長が抑制されており、これにより耐酸化性が向上することを見出した。図6にTi/Mnと900℃で200h連続酸化した後の内層のCr2O3皮膜厚さを示す。Cr2O3内層スケールの厚さが5μm超の場合、スケール剥離等が生じて耐酸化性が劣るが、Mn/Ti≧3の場合にはCr2O3内層スケールの厚さが薄く、耐酸化性に優れている。Tiは内層のCr2O3を介して外方拡散するが、MnによってTiの外方拡散が抑制された結果、内層のCr2O3皮膜の成長が抑制されたと考えられる。良好な耐酸化性を得るには、内層のCr2O3皮膜の成長を抑制することが重要であり、900℃において200h、大気中で連続酸化させた時に生成するCr2O3内層スケールの厚さを5μm以下とするために、Mn/Ti≧3とした。
In the present invention, by adding an appropriate amount of Ti and Nb in combination, the high temperature strength after long-term aging and high temperature ductility are improved to improve thermal fatigue properties. There is a deterioration effect. When the steel containing Si, Cr, Mn, and Ti shown in the present invention is continuously oxidized in the atmosphere, the scale has a spinel oxide mainly containing TiO 2 , Cr, and Mn in the outer layer, and Cr 2 in the inner layer. O 3 is formed. As the amount of Ti increases, the Cr 2 O 3 film of the inner layer becomes thicker and the oxidation resistance deteriorates. The present inventors examined the influence of Mn, and when Mn was increased, the amount of TiO 2 in the outer layer was reduced, and the growth of the Cr 2 O 3 film in the inner layer was suppressed, whereby the oxidation resistance was increased. Found to improve. FIG. 6 shows the Cr 2 O 3 film thickness of the inner layer after continuous oxidation with Ti / Mn at 900 ° C. for 200 hours. When the thickness of the Cr 2 O 3 inner layer scale exceeds 5 μm, scale peeling occurs and the oxidation resistance is inferior. However, when Mn / Ti ≧ 3, the thickness of the Cr 2 O 3 inner layer scale is thin and the acid resistance Excellent in chemical properties. Ti is diffused outward through the inner layer of Cr 2 O 3, results outward diffusion of Ti is inhibited by Mn, believed to growth of the inner layer of Cr 2 O 3 film is suppressed. In order to obtain good oxidation resistance, it is important to suppress the growth of the Cr 2 O 3 film of the inner layer, and the Cr 2 O 3 inner layer scale formed when continuously oxidized in the atmosphere at 900 ° C. for 200 hours.

For evaluation of oxidation resistance, a test piece with a width of 20 mm and a length of 25 mm was cut from the product plate, polished to # 600 with emery paper, and then subjected to a continuous oxidation test in the atmosphere at 900 ° C. for 200 hours. It was. The thickness of the Cr 2 O 3 inner layer scale was determined by observing a cross section with an SEM (scanning electron microscope).
表2から明らかなように、本発明で規定する成分組成を有する鋼を上記の様な通常の方
法にて製造した場合、比較例に比べて常温伸びが高く、加工性に優れていることがわかる
。また、高温強度についても上記範囲を満足しており、熱疲労特性に優れている。比較例
において、鋼No.12と13はCやNが高いため、常温での破断伸びが低く、高温での絞り値も低い。また炭窒化物生成により高温強度が低い。鋼No.14は、Siが低いため、時効後の高温強度が低い。鋼No15、17,18,19、20はそれぞれMn、S,Ni、Cu、Crが高いため、常温加工性が悪く、時効後の絞り値が低い。鋼No.16はSが上限外れで、時効後の固溶Ti+Nb量が低くなり、時効後高温強度が低い。鋼No.21,22,23,24,25,26はMo,Nb,Ti,V,Al,Bが上限を外れている。これらは、高温強度には寄与するものの、常温加工性が悪く、200℃での絞りが低いことから熱疲労寿命が短い。
As is apparent from Table 2, when a steel having the component composition defined in the present invention is produced by the usual method as described above, it has a higher room temperature elongation than the comparative example and is excellent in workability. Recognize. Further, the high temperature strength satisfies the above range and is excellent in thermal fatigue characteristics. In the comparative example, Steel No. Since 12 and 13 have high C and N, the elongation at break at normal temperature is low, and the drawing value at high temperature is also low. Moreover, high temperature strength is low by carbonitride formation. Steel No. No. 14 is low in Si and thus has a low high temperature strength after aging. Steel Nos. 15, 17, 18, 19, and 20 have high Mn, S, Ni, Cu, and Cr, respectively, so that the room temperature workability is poor and the aperture value after aging is low. Steel No. In No. 16, S is outside the upper limit, the amount of solid solution Ti + Nb after aging is low, and the high temperature strength after aging is low. Steel No. In 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, and 26, Mo, Nb, Ti, V, Al, and B are out of the upper limit. Although these contribute to high temperature strength, they have poor room temperature workability and have a short thermal fatigue life due to low drawing at 200 ° C.
耐酸化性において、本発明鋼の内層スケール厚さは5μm以下と良好である。比較例において、Siが本発明範囲からはずれ、Mn/Tiの小さい鋼No.14,17,23,24,26は、内層スケール厚さが5μmを超えており、耐酸化性に劣る。 In terms of oxidation resistance, the inner layer scale thickness of the steel of the present invention is as good as 5 μm or less. In the comparative example, Si deviates from the scope of the present invention, and steel No. 1 with a small Mn / Ti. 14, 17, 23, 24, and 26 have an inner layer scale thickness of more than 5 μm, and are inferior in oxidation resistance.
