ABSTRACT:
A steel comprises additives including rare earth elements, boron and at least one of rhenium, osmium, iridium, ruthenium, rhodium. The steel exhibits resistance to embrittlement, oxidation and creep. The steel also comprises balanced amounts of nickel and cobalt to minimize a ratio of nickel to cobalt, and optimize aging embrittlement resistance with as tempered toughness. The steel comprises, by weight percent: at least one of rhenium, osmium, iridium, ruthenium, rhodium (0.01 to 2.00); rare earth element (0.50 max.); boron (0.001-0.04); carbon (0.08-0.15); silicon (0.01-0.10); chromium (8.00-13.00); at least one of tungsten and molybdenum (0.01 to 2.00); at least one austenite stabilizer; such as nickel, copper, cobalt and manganese (0.001-6.00); vanadium (0.25-0.40); phosphorus (0.010 max.); sulfur (0.004 max.); nitrogen (0.060 max.); hydrogen (2 ppm max.); oxygen (50 ppm max.); aluminum (0.001-0.025); arsenic (0.0060 max.); antimony (0.0030 max.); tin (0.0050 max.); iron (balance).
