It includes carbon steel, carbon-manganese steel, microalloyed steel, low-alloy high-strength steel, and low-temperature steel. The operating temperature is generally from -20°C to 500°C, and some can reach 560°C. Among them, the main refers to 16MnR steel (16 manganese capacity low alloy steel, a type of steel), which is used to manufacture ASME code pressure vessels.
Pressure vessel steel plate is a special material related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and is a short-term product in the metallurgical industry. In recent years, China's boilers and pressure vessels have not only a certain scale in terms of output, but also some enterprises have gradually approached the level of steel plates for boilers and pressure vessels in developed countries in terms of physical quality. So far, China has formed a production system with a certain production scale, increasing specifications and gradually improving the quality of steel plates for boilers and pressure vessels.
