AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional black stainless steel materials suffer from insufficient processability, leading to cracking or peeling of the oxide film during processing, exposing the base material and reducing corrosion resistance in partially processed areas.

Method used

A stainless steel material with a specific composition and controlled oxide film characteristics is subjected to blackening heat treatment under precise atmospheric conditions, forming a dense oxide film with controlled carrier density and grain size to enhance workability and corrosion resistance.

Benefits of technology

The method produces a black stainless steel material with improved processability, minimizing base material exposure and maintaining corrosion resistance even when partially exposed during processing.
