Abstract

The present invention relates to the austenitic steel having improved resistance to oxidation at the high temperature, comprising not more than 0.10% C, 0.1-5.0% Si, not more than 3% Mn, 7-45% Ni, 15-30% Cr and sulfur content being restricted to not more than 0.003%. According to the present invention, by limiting the sulfur content in the austenitic steel to not more than 0.003%, preferably to not more than 0.0015%, the heat-resisting steel material which can show improved resistance to oxidation under severe conditions including repeated heating to high temperatures and cooling to room temperature is provided.
