Definitions
- the present invention relates to a steel material for electron beam welding which is irradiated with an electron beam to be welded and welded, and a manufacturing method thereof, and further relates to an electron beam welded joint formed by irradiating an electron beam to the welded portion of this steel material.
- the structure of the foundation portion of the steel tower is a steel pipe structure having a large cross section with a plate thickness of more than 50 mm, for example, about 100 mm and a diameter of about 4 m.
- the height of the tower reaches over 80m.
- a huge steel structure such as a tower for wind power generation is easily and efficiently assembled by electron beam welding on the coast near the construction site.
- high energy density beam welding such as electron beam welding and laser beam welding is efficient.
- plate thickness that can be welded with a laser beam.
- conventional electron beam welding has to be performed in a vacuum chamber maintained in a high vacuum state. Therefore, conventionally, the thickness and size of the steel plate that can be welded by high energy density beam welding have been limited by the capability of the welding apparatus and the size in the vacuum chamber.
- the RPEBW method is a welding method in which the degree of vacuum is low compared to a method of welding in a vacuum chamber, but an improvement in toughness of the weld metal (WM) can be expected as compared with conventional arc welding.
- a fracture toughness value ⁇ c based on fracture mechanics obtained by a CTOD (Crack Tip Opening Displacement) test is known.
- ⁇ c is obtained by a CTOD (Crack Tip Opening Displacement) test.
- the fracture toughness is affected by the size of the test piece. Even if a good result is obtained in a small test such as a conventional V-notch Charpy impact test, the CTOD test for a welded joint of a large steel structure is 0.
- a good fracture toughness value ⁇ c of 0.5 mm or more at 0 ° C. is not always obtained.
- the electron beam welding method is a method in which the base material of the welded portion is once melted and solidified by the energy of the electron beam and is welded by solidification.
- the component composition of the welded portion by the electron beam welding method is the base material. It is almost equivalent to (steel).
- the high heat input arc welding method such as electrogas welding
- mechanical properties such as the hardness of the weld metal and the fracture toughness value ⁇ c are adjusted by a welding wire or the like.
- Electron beam welding usually does not use welding wires.
- Patent Documents 6 and 7 propose a method for optimizing the hardness and cleanliness of the weld metal (WM) (see, for example, Patent Documents 6 and 7).
- Patent Document 6 proposes that the hardness of the weld metal is more than 110% and less than or equal to 220% of the hardness of the base metal, and the width of the weld metal is less than or equal to 20% of the plate thickness of the steel material.

- the welded parts are used as they are without heat treatment, so the weld metal (WM) and the heat affected zone (HAZ: Heat-AffectedffZone) (Hereinafter simply referred to as the heat-affected zone) requires excellent toughness.
- the toughness of the weld metal and the heat-affected zone is controlled by adjusting the component composition of the steel material (base material).
- Electron beam welding is performed by attaching plate-like or foil-like Ni (insert metal) to the weld surface (groove surface), and the toughness of the weld metal (WM) is increased beyond the toughness of the steel material (base material). Can do. However, also in this case, if the component composition of the steel material (base material) is not appropriate, the difference between the hardness of the weld metal and the hardness of the heat-affected zone becomes significant. Then, the fracture toughness value ⁇ c of the heat-affected zone, which is a portion where the difference in hardness is very large, is greatly reduced.
- the appropriate component composition for improving the toughness does not necessarily match between the weld metal and the heat affected zone. Therefore, even if the conventional high-HAZ toughness steel for arc welding is directly subjected to electron beam welding, high toughness cannot be obtained with a weld metal. On the other hand, even if the component composition of the steel for arc welding is optimized in consideration of the toughness of the weld metal formed by electron beam welding, high toughness cannot be obtained in the heat affected zone.

And ensure the required fracture toughness for the entire weld. Furthermore, in the present invention, the amount of Mn is increased in order to improve the hardenability, while the amount of Cr, Mo, Cu, Ni, and / or Nb is reduced to reduce the manufacturing cost of the steel material for electron beam welding.

- C, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, and V are mass% of each element in the composition of a predetermined steel material, respectively.
- the steel material may have a thickness of 45 to 150 mm.
- the CTOD value of the weld metal is ⁇ WM
- the CTOD value of the weld heat affected zone is ⁇ HAZ
- the CTOD value of the steel material is ⁇
- BM When defined as BM , ⁇ WM , ⁇ HAZ , and ⁇ BM may satisfy 0.15 ⁇ ⁇ WM / ⁇ BM ⁇ 1.1 and 0.15 ⁇ ⁇ HAZ / ⁇ BM ⁇ 1.1.
- the steel material for an electron beam welded joint has a composition of mass%, C: 0.02 to 0.1%, Si: 0.03 to 0.30%. , Mn: 1.5 to 2.5%, Ti: 0.005 to 0.015%, N: 0.0020 to 0.0060%, Al: more than 0.004% and 0.05% or less, Nb: 0 % To 0.020%, V: 0% to 0.030%, Cr: 0% to 0.50%, Mo: 0% to 0.50%, Cu: 0% to 0.25%, Ni: 0 %: 0.5 to 0.50% and B: 0% to 0.0030%, P: limited to 0.015% or less, S: limited to 0.010% or less, O: 0.0035%

- C, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, and V are mass% of each element in the composition of a predetermined steel material, respectively.
- the thickness of the steel material may be 45 to 150 mm.
- a method for manufacturing a steel material for an electron beam welded joint according to another aspect of the present invention is a method for manufacturing the steel material for an electron beam welded joint according to any one of (5) to (7) above,
- the steel material is cooled so that the cooling rate in the temperature range of 1300 to 1100 ° C. is 9 ° C./min or more, and after the casting step, the steel material is 950 to 1150 ° C. Heating, and then performing a heat treatment process.
- the fracture toughness of the steel (base metal) and the heat-affected zone is excellent, if the fracture toughness of the weld metal is inferior, the weld metal becomes the starting point of fracture and the fracture toughness of the welded joint deteriorates. To do. Even if the fracture toughness of the weld metal is excellent, if the fracture toughness of the heat-affected zone is inferior, the fracture proceeds from the heat-affected zone. As described above, when the fracture toughness varies in each part of the welded joint, the fracture toughness of the welded joint as a whole deteriorates.
- Brittle fracture in welds (welded metal and heat-affected zone) of steel with a yield strength of 355 MPa using electron beam welding is caused by coarse grain boundary ferrite formed around the prior austenite grains and the interior of the prior austenite grains.
- upper bainite and ferrite side plates or the like to produce the lath is generated become starting points of fracture.
- the fracture surface unit when brittle fracture starts from coarse ferrite generated from upper bainite or prior austenite grain boundaries depends on the grain size of prior austenite. Therefore, the fracture toughness of the welded portion can be improved by reducing the grain size of the prior austenite in the weld metal and the heat-affected zone using the pinning effect and intragranular transformation caused by the precipitates.
- a fine Ti nitride having an appropriate particle size (mainly TiN is pointed out.
- this fine Ti nitride remains in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and acts as pinning particles, so that grain growth in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) is suppressed and fracture occurs. Toughness is improved.
- the fine Ti nitride becomes a nucleus for intragranular transformation, and produces intragranular ferrite in the weld metal and the heat affected zone.
- the microstructure of the weld metal and the heat affected zone becomes finer, and the fracture toughness of the steel (base material), the heat affected zone, and the weld metal is improved, and the balance of these three fracture toughness is improved.
- an electron beam welded joint made of a steel material having a yield strength of 355 MPa deterioration of fracture toughness in the weld metal and the heat-affected zone can be suppressed. Further, it is possible to provide an electron beam welded joint in which the fracture toughness of the steel material (base material), the heat-affected zone, and the weld metal is appropriately balanced, and a steel material that can form this welded joint can be provided at low cost.
- the steel material is welded and then used as it is without heat treatment. For this reason, the weld metal and the heat affected zone are required to have excellent toughness.
- the toughness of the weld metal and the heat affected zone is controlled by adjusting the component composition of the steel material (base material).
- the plate thickness and strength of the steel material used for the electron beam welded joint according to the embodiment of the present invention are not particularly limited.
- the plate thickness is 45 to 150 mm
- YP yield point
- TS tensile strength
- the plate thickness upper limit may be set to 120 mm or 130 mm.
- the YP lower limit may be set to 340 MPa or 355 MPa
- the YP upper limit may be set to 500 MPa, 460 MPa, or 420 MPa.
- the TS lower limit may be set to 470 MPa or 490 MPa
- the TS upper limit may be set to 600 MPa, 570 MPa, or 550 MPa.
- This type of steel is a structural steel with a YP of about 355 MPa, which is lower in strength than Cr-Mo high-strength steel, and the heat-affected zone has a low toughness as shown qualitatively in FIG. Become bainite.
- a steel material is electron beam welded, particularly in the heat-affected zone, coarse structures such as grain boundary ferrite and upper bainite develop, and high carbon martensite (also called island martensite or MA constituent) is generated. easy. Therefore, when the structural steel is electron beam welded, it is not easy to ensure the toughness of the heat affected zone.
- the toughness of the weld metal and the heat-affected zone it is important to balance the hardness of the weld metal and the hardness of the steel material (base material). That is, as shown in FIG. 3, when the hardness of the weld metal is increased with respect to the hardness of the steel material (base material), the toughness of the weld metal is improved. However, since deformation concentrates on the heat-affected zone due to the effect of hardening of the weld metal, the toughness of the heat-affected zone decreases due to the effect of hardening of the weld metal. Therefore, when the hardenability is increased in order to prevent the formation of upper bainite having poor toughness, the weld metal is hardened, and this influence causes a problem that the toughness of the heat affected zone is impaired.
- the relationship between the hardenability of steel and the grain size of WM and the high carbon martensite of HAZ, the ratio of the hardness of WM to the hardness of the steel (base material) and the toughness of the welded joint are as follows: Qualitatively known. However, conventionally, there has been no concept of controlling the balance of fracture toughness of welded joints by the components of steel materials. Therefore, for example, when a steel material (base material) with improved hardenability is subjected to electron beam welding, the WM toughness is improved, but the HAZ toughness is significantly reduced.
- the present inventors have examined an index for indicating hardenability suitable for electron beam welding in order to ensure required toughness in an electron beam welded joint, and newly devised and introduced “CeEB”.
- the “electron beam hardenability index CeEB” defined by the following (formula 1) focuses on the hardenability that greatly affects the formation of the structure of the steel material in order to further increase the fracture toughness of the electron beam welded joint. It is an indicator created in consideration of ensuring the generation of the organization.
- CeEB C + 9 / 40Mn + 1 / 15Cu + 1 / 15Ni + 1 / 5Cr + 1 / 5Mo + 1 / 5V (Formula 1)
- C, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, and V are content (mass%) of a steel material component, respectively.
- the coefficient of Mn was set to 9/40 based on the empirically obtained degree of decrease in hardenability. The value of this coefficient is larger than the known Mn coefficient 1/6 in Ceq.
- the index CeEB ensures (1) hardenability within the required range in the steel (base metal) before electron beam welding, (2) promotes the formation of fine ferrite in the weld metal, and (3) In the heat-affected zone, it is an index for suppressing the generation of upper bainite, high carbon martensite and the like that lower toughness.
- FIG. 4 qualitatively shows the relationship between the fracture toughness value ( ⁇ c) of the weld metal (WM) and the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and CeEB in the electron beam welded joint.
- the solid curve is the fracture toughness value ( ⁇ cwm) of the weld metal
- the dashed curve is the fracture toughness value ( ⁇ cha) of the heat affected zone.
- the two-dot chain line curve is the fracture toughness value (predicted value of HAZ toughness) of the heat affected zone when the influence of the hardness of the WM is virtually ignored. This predicted value of HAZ toughness can be measured by a fracture toughness test of a test piece subjected to heat treatment simulating the thermal history of HAZ.
- the fracture toughness values of the weld metal and the heat affected zone can both be made equal to or higher than the target value indicated by the alternate long and short dash line.
- ⁇ cwm and ⁇ cha are improved according to the effects of pinning and intragranular transformation.
- the present inventors examined the relationship between the amount of C of the steel material (base material) and CeEB, and the toughness of the steel material (base material), the weld metal, and the heat-affected zone. As a result, it has been found that it is preferable to adjust the ratio “C / CeEB” of the C amount of the steel material (base material) to CeEB within a specific range. The technical significance of the ratio “C / CeEB” will be described below.
- the ratio “C / CeEB” is an index for preventing the hardenability of the weld metal and the hardenability of the heat-affected zone and the steel material from being extremely biased.
- FIG. 5A shows the relationship between CeEB and the fracture toughness value of the weld metal
- FIG. 5B shows the relationship between CeEB and the fracture toughness value of the heat affected zone.
- CeEB is an index of hardenability.
- the particle size of weld metal becomes fine, so the fracture toughness value increases.
- the formation of high carbon martensite is promoted and the fracture toughness value decreases.
- electron beam welding a part of Mn of the weld metal evaporates and the amount of Mn decreases.
- the present inventors examined a technique for improving the balance between the fracture toughness value of the weld metal and the fracture toughness value of the heat-affected zone. As a result, it was found that when Ti nitride functions as pinning particles, grain growth in the heat affected zone is suppressed, and the toughness of the heat affected zone and the weld metal is improved. Further, it has been found that when intragranular ferrite is generated by utilizing intragranular transformation using Ti nitride as a production nucleus, the toughness of the heat affected zone and the weld metal is improved.
- the present inventors further conducted preliminary experiments to verify the influence of the size and number of inclusion particles in steel containing Ti nitride and oxide on the fracture toughness value of an electron beam welded joint. .
- a plurality of steel materials having inclusion particles having different numbers and sizes were prepared by changing the total oxygen amount in the steel and the cooling rate of the slab.
- Manufactured electron beam welded joint with these steels were examined fracture toughness.
- the reason is as follows.
- the first reason is that, as verified by the CTOD test, in the electron beam welded joint, the binding force is mechanically the highest and it is easy to start the fracture at the center of the plate thickness. Furthermore, in the central part of the steel sheet in the thickness direction, solute elements are concentrated due to solidification segregation (center segregation) in continuous casting, and the structure is easily hardened.
- the second reason is that the central portion in the thickness direction is in a state in which brittle fracture is likely to occur metallurgically compared to the portion near the surface layer in the thickness direction.
- the electron beam welded joint which is the subject of the present invention, differs from a normal arc welded joint in that the fusion surface is a plane that is substantially parallel to the plate thickness direction.
- the coarse inclusion particles are likely to be the starting point for brittle fracture. That is, the heat-affected zone of the electron beam welded joint and the fracture toughness value of the weld metal are more susceptible to the size and number of inclusion particles present in the center of the plate thickness than a normal arc welded joint. This is the third reason.
- the inclusion particles are nitrides containing 10% or more of Ti (hereinafter also simply referred to as Ti nitrides), the pinning action and the intragranular transformation are promoted with high efficiency when the equivalent circle diameter is 0.05 ⁇ m or more. Shows the effect and greatly contributes to the refinement of crystal grains.
- inclusion particles having a relatively large particle diameter serve as a starting point for brittle fracture regardless of the Ti content.
- the equivalent circle diameter of inclusion particles exceeds 0.5 ⁇ m, a tendency to become a starting point of brittle fracture starts, and particularly when the equivalent circle diameter is 1.0 ⁇ m or more, the tendency to become the starting point of fracture is particularly high. It is desirable to limit the number as much as possible. In addition, it was found that if an appropriate amount of Ti nitride having an equivalent circle diameter of 0.05 ⁇ m or more and less than 0.5 ⁇ m is contained in the steel material, the crystal grains can be effectively refined without causing brittle fracture. It was.
- the component composition of each slab manufactured in this preliminary experiment almost coincided with the target value of the above component composition. Further, the total oxygen content of each slab produced was 11 ppm to 31 ppm. Using the obtained slab, a steel plate having a thickness of 50 mm was manufactured by ACC described later.
- the method for measuring the number of particles of the steel material is the same as that used in the examples described later.
- FIG. 7 shows the relationship between the result of the CTOD test and the number of the fine Ti nitrides and the coarse inclusion particles.
- all plots (hollow plots) of the welded joints that passed the CTOD test are within the range of the dashed square shown as “Scope of the Invention”.
- the sample in which the HAZ CTOD value and ⁇ HAZ are 0.2 mm or more has (1) particles having an equivalent circle diameter of 1.0 ⁇ m or more (the coarse inclusion particles) at the center of the plate thickness of the steel material.
- Ti nitride having an equivalent circle diameter of 0.05 ⁇ m or more and less than 0.5 ⁇ m is 1 ⁇ 10 3 pieces / mm 2 or more at the center of the plate thickness. The condition was met.
- the inventors obtained the following knowledge by combining the results of the preliminary experiments. (1) The number of coarse inclusion particles existing in the center portion of the plate thickness is reduced, and (2) the amount of fine Ti nitrides serving as transformation nuclei for intragranular transformation is appropriately controlled, so that The fracture toughness of the heat affected zone and the weld metal can be improved. Further, it was found that (3) controlling the cooling rate at the time of casting the steel material within an appropriate range is effective for controlling the size and number of inclusion particles. Note that the required cooling rate of the cast slab obtained in the preliminary experiment is 9 ° C./min. The shape of the weir at the time of casting is considered to change. For this reason, in order to improve the CTOD test result, it is only necessary to obtain a predetermined number of inclusion particles in a predetermined component range, and it is not always necessary to limit the cooling rate during casting to 9 ° C./min or more.
- the C amount of steel (base material), CeEB, and C / CeEB, and the size and number of inclusion particles are controlled within an appropriate range, and an appropriate amount of Al, Ti etc. are added.
- fine Ti nitride is used as the nuclei for pinning particles and intragranular transformation, and the ratio of the fracture toughness value of the weld metal and weld heat affected zone to the fracture toughness value of the steel (base metal) is appropriate.
- the composition of the steel material according to the embodiment of the present invention is at least C: 0.02% to 0.1%, Si: 0.03% to 0.30%, Mn: 1.5% to 2.% by mass. 5%, Ti: 0.005 to 0.015%, N: 0.0020 to 0.0060%, Al: more than 0.004% to 0.05%. Moreover, it is necessary to restrict
- Nb 0% to 0.020%
- V 0% to 0.030%
- Cr 0% to 0.50%
- Mo 0% to 0.50%
- Cu 0 %: 0.25%
- Ni 0% -0.50%
- B 0% -0.0030%.
- the balance of the steel composition is composed of iron and inevitable impurities.
- % means the mass%.
- C is an element that contributes to improvement in strength. In order to ensure the strength as a welded structure, 0.02% or more is added. Moreover, when there is little C amount, the hardenability of a weld metal may be insufficient and toughness may be impaired. A preferred lower limit is 0.03%, and a more preferred lower limit is 0.04%. On the other hand, if the C content exceeds 0.1%, the hardenability increases excessively, and in particular, the toughness of the weld metal and the heat-affected zone decreases. Therefore, the upper limit of the C content is set to 0.1%. A preferable upper limit is 0.08%, or 0.07%, and more preferably 0.06%.
- Si is a deoxidizing element and is also an effective element for securing the strength of the steel sheet. Therefore, 0.03% or more is added. However, when Si is added excessively, a large amount of island martensite is generated, and in particular, the toughness of the weld metal and the heat-affected zone decreases. For this reason, the upper limit of the Si amount is set to 0.30%. A preferable upper limit is 0.25% or 0.20%, and a more preferable upper limit is 0.15%.
- Mn is an element that is effective in ensuring toughness and enhancing the hardenability to ensure the strength of the steel sheet. If the amount of Mn is less than 1.5%, the toughness, strength, and hardenability of the steel material cannot be sufficiently secured. Also, during electron beam welding, Mn is lost by evaporation from the weld metal, and the hardenability of the weld metal is reduced. Accordingly, 1.5% or more of Mn is added to ensure the toughness, strength, and hardenability of the steel material, and further the hardenability of the weld metal.
- the preferable lower limit of the amount of Mn is 1.6% or 1.7%, more preferably 1.8%. However, if the amount of Mn exceeds 2.5%, the hardenability increases excessively, and in particular, the toughness of the heat affected zone decreases. Therefore, the upper limit of the amount of Mn is set to 2.5%. A preferable upper limit is 2.4%, and a more preferable upper limit is 2.3%.
- P is an unavoidable impurity and adversely affects the toughness of steel (BM), weld metal (WM), and heat affected zone (HAZ).
- BM steel
- WM weld metal
- HZ heat affected zone
- P is preferably small and limited to 0.015% or less.
- a preferable amount of P is 0.010% or less or 0.006% or less.
- the lower limit is 0%. From the viewpoint of manufacturing cost, an extremely low P content of 0.001% or less is unnecessary, and the P content may be 0.001% or more.
- S is an unavoidable impurity and forms MnS.
- MnS precipitates with fine Ti nitrides as nuclei, forms a Mn-diluted region, and promotes the formation of intragranular ferrite (intragranular transformation).
- the lower limit of the preferable amount of S is 0.001%. If necessary, the lower limit of the amount of S may be 0.002%. Further, the lower limit of the amount of S is not limited, and the lower limit may be 0%.
- the amount of S is limited to 0.010% or less.
- the upper limit of the preferable amount of S is 0.007% or 0.005% or less.
- Al is an important deoxidizing element in the present invention.
- Al suppresses the generation of Ti oxide and precipitates inclusion particles such as fine Ti-containing nitride, so it is added in excess of 0.004%.
- a preferable lower limit of the Al content is 0.010%.
- the Al content exceeds 0.05%, an Al oxide serving as a starting point of fracture is generated and the toughness is lowered, so the upper limit is made 0.05%. From the viewpoint of increasing the toughness of the heat affected zone (HAZ) and the weld metal (WM), the upper limit is preferably 0.03%.
- Ti is an extremely important element in the present invention, and is used for deoxidation of steel. Ti combines with N to form fine Ti nitride. This Ti nitride may contain elements other than Ti and N. In an electron beam welded joint having a low heat input, coarsening of austenite grains in the heat affected zone (HAZ) is suppressed by the pinning effect of fine Ti nitride. Further, fine Ti nitride functions as a nucleus for intragranular transformation, and contributes to improvement of the toughness of the heat affected zone (HAZ) and the weld metal (WM).
- HZ heat affected zone
- WM weld metal
- Ti is added in an amount of 0.005% or more.
- the lower limit is preferably 0.007%.
- the upper limit is made 0.015%.
- a preferable upper limit is 0.012%.
- N is an extremely important element in the present invention that forms a fine Ti nitride by combining with Ti.
- the lower limit of the N amount is set to 0.0020%. .
- a preferred lower limit is 0.0030% or 0.0035%.
- the upper limit is made 0.0060%.
- a preferred upper limit is 0.0050% or 0.0040%.
- O is an impurity and is preferably as small as possible. If the amount of O is excessive, an oxide that becomes a starting point of fracture is excessively generated and adversely affects the toughness of the steel material and the heat-affected zone, so the upper limit is made 0.0035%. In the case where an excessive oxide is likely to be generated in the steel material under conditions such as composition and manufacturing process, the upper limit of the O amount may be 0.0032% or less, 0.0029% or less, or 0.0025% or less.
- the lower limit of the amount of O may be 0%, but when the amount of deoxidizing element Al is small, fine Ti oxides are formed when an appropriate amount of O is present, and the nuclei generated during intragranular transformation in the weld metal and heat affected zone As a result, toughness is improved. For this reason, it is good also considering the minimum of the amount of O as 0.0010%.
- the lower limit of the amount of O in the steel material is preferably 0.0015%, more preferably 0.0020%.
- the O amount of the weld metal may be less than 20 ppm, 18 ppm or less, or 17 ppm or less. Although it is not necessary to set the lower limit of the O amount of the weld metal, it may be 7 ppm or more, 10 ppm or more, or 12 ppm or more.
- Ca produces CaS and suppresses the production of MnS extending in the rolling direction.
- Ca may be added in order to improve the properties of the steel material in the plate thickness direction, particularly lamellar resistance. If Ca exceeds 0.0050%, a coarse oxide is generated, and the toughness of the steel (base material) and the heat-affected zone decreases, so the upper limit is made 0.0050%.
- the addition of Ca is not essential, and the Ca content may be 0%.
- the amount of Mg in inevitable impurities may be limited to 0.0002% or less.
- the steel material according to the embodiment of the present invention may further contain Nb and / or V within a certain limit for the following reason.

In order to obtain the effect of addition, Nb is added in an amount of 0.001% or more. Preferably, Nb is added in an amount of 0.003% or more. However, if added excessively, the toughness of the weld metal (WM) and the heat-affected zone (HAZ) decreases, so the upper limit of the Nb content is 0.020%. The upper limit is preferably 0.012%, more preferably 0.010%, and 0.004% when particularly high toughness is required. There is no need to specifically limit the lower limit of Nb, and the amount of Nb may be 0%.
