The invention discloses
hot work die steel capable of being used for a long term at the working condition of 600-700 DEG C and belongs to the field of material and preparation. The
hot work die steelcomprises the following components in percentage by
mass: 0.12-0.30 of C, equal to or less than 0.5 of Si, equal to or less than 0.5 of Mn, 1.0-3.0 of Cr, 1.5-2.5 of Mo, 0.3-1.2 of W, 0.5-1.6 of Ni, 0.2-1.0 of V, 0.03-0.15% of Nb, equal to or less than 0.05 of N, equal to or less than 0.03 of S, equal to or less than 0.03 of P, equal to or less than 3.5 of (Mo+W), equal to or less than 1.0 of (Nb+V) and the balance of Fe and unavoidable
impurity elements. According to the
hot work die steel, low carbon is adopted to form
lath martensite so as to obtain high tenacity at
room temperature and lowtemperature; through alloying of Cr, W, Mo, V, Nb and the like and the
thermal deformation optimization and
thermal treatment technology, solution strengthening is improved and MC and M2C type
carbide still keeping stability at 600-700 DEG C is formed so as to obtain high temperature strength and
thermal stability of the material. Compared with the commonly used hot work die steel at present including H13, 25Cr3Mo3NiNbZr and the like, the high temperature strength at 700 DEG C of the hot work die steel is improved by 50-100%, the
tempering thermal stability is improved by 50-100%, the problemabout hot work die steel used at 600-700 DEG C is better solved, and the hot work die steel has longer service life at 600 DEG C and below.
