China Shandong Steel Rizhao successfully developed ultra-high strength marine steel

Recently, Shandong Iron & Steel Group Rizhao Company (hereinafter referred to as Shandong Iron & Steel Rizhao) successfully developed 890 MPa ultra-high strength marine steel and achieved batch supply, marking a new breakthrough in the company's research and development and order-taking capabilities for steel plates for ships and marine engineering.

After receiving an order for 890 MPa ultra-high strength marine steel from a well-known domestic shipbuilding company, Shandong Iron & Steel Rizhao's R&D personnel deeply identified the user's technical requirements. Based on the previous experience in developing ultra-high strength marine steel, they fully studied the requirements of the strength and toughness index for the component system, focused on the proportion of special elements, optimized the rolling and heat treatment processes, and ensured the strength and toughness of the product. After inspection, the yield strength and tensile strength of the steel plate are close to 1000 MPa, and the low-temperature impact performance fully meets the user's technical requirements.

It is understood that the new product will be used in the construction of the key structure of the 93,500-ton floating dock. It is the highest-level steel grade used in the field of shipbuilding and marine engineering for the first time in China, further broadening the company's product field, opening up a new profit growth point for the company, and enhancing the company's marine steel brand effect.
