Benefits of technology

The patent text discusses a method of making a smooth and flexible material that can be used for cooking. The material is made using a special process that combines three layers of stainless steel into one sheet. This process is complex and expensive but the patent explains that a simpler and more cost-effective way to make this sheet is possible using a twin roll strip casting process. The resulting sheet has excellent corrosion resistance and can be easily used for induction heating. The technical effect of this patent is to provide a more efficient and cost-effective way to make a high-quality stainless steel sheet that can be used for cooking.

Problems solved by technology

Austenitic stainless steel having excellent corrosion resistance and workability includes Ni, Mo, and the like, which are relatively costly raw materials.
400-series stainless steels have the disadvantage that formability and corrosion resistance thereof are lower than those of SUS 300-series stainless steels, austenitic stainless steels, but have ferromagnetism.
The magnetism described above is properties effective for induction heating, however, ferritic stainless steels are vulnerable to corrosion.
As described above, when cookware of a three ply pot is manufactured, a bonding process is added and a process using three kinds of material is complex, whereby processing costs are high.

example 1

[0068]90 tons of molten steel having a composition as described in Table 1 was prepared to be cast using a twin roll strip caster illustrated in FIG. 1, thereby manufacturing a thin steel sheet. In this case, a casting width was 1,300 mm, and a casting thickness was 4.0 mm.

[0069]As described above, immediately after the thin steel sheet was cast, the thin steel sheet was hot-rolled at a high temperature to continuously manufacture a hot-rolled plate having a thickness of about 2.5 mm. The hot-rolled plate was cold rolled at a reduction rate of 50% to 70% and was annealed at a temperature of 1150° C.

[0070]FIGS. 2A and 2B are pictures, in which microstructures of representative examples of conventional austenitic stainless steel (SUS 304 stainless steel) and ferritic stainless steel (SUS 430 stainless steel) are illustrated by way of example.

[0071]FIG. 3 is a picture in which a microstructure of Inventive example 1 in Table 2 is visible, and FIG. 4 illustrates investigated relative pe...

example 2

[0083]Except that the content of ferrite was varied, a steel sheet was manufactured under the same conditions as those of Inventive example 1 of Example 1, and changes in the content of ferrite and relative permeability were investigated. Results thereof were illustrated in FIG. 6. In addition, induction heating properties with respect to relative permeability were also investigated.

[0084]As shown in FIG. 6, when the content of ferrite was 30% to 70%, relative permeability of 20μr to 80μr could be obtained. As a result of investigation of induction heating properties with respect to relative permeability, when relative permeability was between 20μr and 80μr, induction heating properties were good. When relative permeability was less than 20μr, induction heating properties were weak, whereby induction heating was not efficient. When relative permeability exceeded 80μr, induction heating properties were excessive, thereby allowing food to be stuck to a bottom of a cooking vessel or to...

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present disclosure relates to a stainless steel sheet for cookware and a method of manufacturing the same and, more particularly, to a stainless steel sheet having excellent induction heating properties and corrosion resistance and a method of manufacturing an induction heatable stainless steel sheet having excellent corrosion resistance using a twin roll strip casting process.BACKGROUND ART[0002]In general, austenitic stainless steel having good workability and corrosion resistance includes iron (Fe) as a base metal as well as chrome (Cr) and nickel (Ni) as main alloying ingredients. Other alloying elements such as molybdenum (Mo) and copper (Cu) are commonly added thereto, and thus, various grades of steel have been developed for various uses. Austenitic stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance and workability, but is non-magnetic.[0003]Austenitic stainless steel having excellent corrosion resistance and workability includes Ni, Mo, and the like,...
