That is, in the heat treatment method of subjecting 18Ni maraging steel to solution treatment and aging treatment, the present invention provides a solution treatment temperature of 850 to 1100°C and an aging treatment temperature of 430°C.
This is a heat treatment method for maraging steel, characterized in that the temperature is ~480'C.

(Presentation table) Chemical composition (wt%) In addition, in the present invention, the solution treatment temperature is 850 to 110
The temperature was set at 0°C in order to ensure that when the 18Ni maraging steel is heated until it becomes a single austenite phase and then cooled to room temperature, all martensitic transformation occurs and no undissolved precipitates remain. This is because it is necessary to raise the temperature to 850°C or higher.

On the other hand, as the solution treatment temperature increases, the magnetic flux density increases and the coercive force decreases, but if the temperature is increased beyond 1100°C, the toughness decreases significantly, so the upper limit was set at 1100°C.

Furthermore, the aging treatment temperature after solution treatment was set to 430 to 480.
℃ because in order to precipitate intermetallic compounds in the martensitic single phase of 18Ni maraging steel, the aging treatment temperature needs to be 430℃ or higher, and the aging temperature is lower than 430℃. In this case, the strength decreases, and the magnetic flux density also decreases.

On the other hand, as the aging temperature increases, although the strength increases, the coercive force also increases. In particular, when the aging treatment temperature exceeds 480° C., reversely transformed austenite precipitates, increasing the coercive force while decreasing the magnetic flux density. Furthermore, the strength also decreases due to the precipitation of reverse transformed austenite.

従って、上限を480 ”Cとした。Therefore, the upper limit was set at 480''C.
