Abstract

Low alloy steels for use in pressure vessel comprising on the weight % basis: PA0 C: from 0.05% to 0.30%, PA0 Si: less than 0.10%, PA0 Mn: from 0.3% to 1.5%, PA0 Ni: from inevitably incorporated content to 0.55%, PA0 Cr: from 1.5% to 5.5%, PA0 Mo: from 0.25% to 1.5%, PA0 V: in excess of 0.10% and less than 0.6%, and PA0 the balance of iron and inevitably incorporated impurities. The steels are excellent in hardenability, the hot strength, toughness weldability and hydrogen attack and embrittlement resistance, as well as show excellent toughness after the use in the temper brittle temperature region.
