Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Alloying of austenitic stainless steels with as much as 0.8% N makes it possible to raise the ultimate strength to 100 kgf/mm2 and the yield strength to 70 kgf/mm2.

  2. 2.

    With slow cooling from 1250° the structure of these steels is of the itrogenous pearlite type.

  3. 3.

    High-nitrogen austenitic Cr-Ni stainless steels and Cr-Ni-Mn steels are not susceptible to ICC after quenching (tests by the AM method, GOST 6032-58). Sensitizing of the steel with >0.54% N induces susceptibility to ICC.
