AUSTENITIC STAINLESS STEEL EXCELLENT IN ANTIBACTERIAL CHARACTERISTIC AND ITS PRODUCTION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3232532
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an austenitic stainless steel having excellent antibacterial characteristic over a long period.
SOLUTION: This stainless steel has a composition containing ≤0.1% C, ≤2% Si, ≤5% Mn, 10-30% Cr, 5-15% Ni, and 1.0-5.0% Cu, and secondary phases composed essentially of Cu are dispersed by ≥0.2vol.% in a matrix. Further, this steel can contain one or ≥2 kinds among 0.02-1% Nb and/or Ti, ≤3% Mo, ≤1% Al, ≤1% Zr, ≤1% V, ≤0.05% B, and ≤0.05% rare earth elements. The secondary phases composed essentially of Cu can be finely and dispersedly precipitated in the matrix by applying heat treatment one or more times at 500-900°C.
