Notes:
Nitrogen evolution research has been widely carried out in Japan after the ForthInternational Conference on High Nitrogen Steels held in 1995 in Kyoto (HNS1995). The firstresearch forum on nitrogen evolution research has been started in The Japan Society of CorrosionEngineering in 1996, followed by a series of research forums in the Iron and Steel Institute of Japan(ISIJ). In the meantime, a pressurized electro-slag remelting furnace was newly developed inNational Institute for Material Science in 1998. A new research group regarding the availabilityof nitrogen on the improvement in steel properties has been started in ISIJ in 2004. Currentresearch activities of the group cover the fabrication of HNS such as mechanical alloying,pressurized ESR and nitrogen absorption, evaluation technologies of HNS such as microstructureand precipitation behavior of nitride, mechanical properties, corrosion properties and physicalproperties, joining/welding technologies. As one of the applications of HNS, Ni-free high nitrogensteels with high strength, anti-corrosion, non-magnetic properties are very attractive in the fields ofbio/medical ones as anti-Ni allergy material. Recent research activities including some topicsmentioned above will be discussed
