Abstract From the Canadian patent

This invention adds elements such as Cu B, Cr, Ca, V, etc. to a low carbon-high Mn-Ni-Mo-trace Ti type steel, and allows the steel to have a tempered martensite/bainite mixed structure containing at least 60% of tempered martensite transformed from un-recrystallized austenite having a mean austenite grain size (d y) of not greater than 10 um as a micro-structure or a tempered martensite structure containing at least 90% of martensite transformed from un-recrystallized austenite. The present invention further stipulates a P value to the range of 1.9 to 4.0 and thus provides a ultra-high strength steel having a tensile strength of at least 950 Mpa (not lower than 100 of the API standard) and …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed January 26, 1996 and granted January 16, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 26, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 26, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
