High A1 stainless steel sheet and double layered sheet, process for their fabrication, honeycomb bodies employing them and process for their production
Abstract
The present invention provides an Fe—Cr—Al based stainless steel sheet and double layered sheet having a high Al content of greater than 6.5%, honeycomb bodies employing the stainless steel sheet or double layered sheet, and a process for fabrication of the steel sheet or double layered sheet. The sheet is a high Al-containing Fe—Cr—Al based stainless steel sheet or high Al-containing double layered sheet characterized by comprising, by weight, Cr: 10-30% and Al: >6.5%-15%. Preferably, the steel sheet further comprises either or both Ti: 0.02-0.1% and Nb: 0.02-0.3%, and also comprises La: 0.01-0.1%, Ce: 0.01-0.1% and P: 0.01-0.05%. It also preferably comprises Cu: 0.01-1.0% by weight, and preferably further comprises Mg: 0.001-0.1% by weight. There is also provided a honeycomb body fabricated using the Fe—Cr—Al based stainless steel sheet.
