Title:
UNTEMPERED STEEL AND UNTEMPERED STEEL MEMBER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/157455
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an untempered steel having the chemical composition [Ti] - 3.4 [N] -1.5 [S] <0and0.60< [C] + ( [Si] /10) + ( [Mn] /5) + (5 [Cr] /22) + (33 [V] /20) - (5 [S] /7) <0.80 and comprising, by mass%, C:0.27 to 0.40%, Si:0.15 to 0.70%, Mn:0.55 to 1.50%, P:0.010 to 0.070%, S:0.05 to 0.15%, Cr:0.10 to 0.60%, V:0.030% or more but less than 0.150%, Ti: greater than 0.10% but 0.200% or less, Al:0.002 to 0.050%, N:0.002 to 0.020% and, when necessary, either Cu ≤ 0.40% or Ni ≤ 0.30%, with the balance being Fe and impurities. The untempered steel is ideal as a material for untempered steel members, such as the connecting rod of an automobile engine that undergoes fracture splitting after hot forging and molding into a predetermined shape and requires high yield strength. Moreover, untempered steel having the abovementioned chemical composition and σw ≥ 450MPa at vERT:1.0 to 7.0J/cm2 can be used as the connecting rod for an automobile engine, and the like.
