Conclusions

  1. 1.

    We determined the optimal amount of rare earth metal (0.15–0.20% by weight) to improve the plasticity and dictility of steel 18KhGSN2M.

  2. 2.

    We found that steel 18 KhGSN2M alloyed with rare earth metal can be raised to a higher strength class by reducing the tempering temperature.

  3. 3.

    The addition of rare earth metals refines the grain and desulfurizes the steel.
