Abstract

High-nitrogen austenitic stainless steel (HNS) developed in NIMS shows high strength, high corrosion resistance, and nonmagnetic properties. This material was originally developed as a resource-saving type of HNS available in the seawater. It is well known that the nickel content of HNS can be reduced with increasing nitrogen content. In addition, it was found, derivatively, that nickel-free HNS was successfully produced with further increasing the nitrogen content, which is applicable to the field of biomedical area as an anti-nickel allergy biomaterial.
In this chapter, the following items are described such as production of HNS, mechanical properties, formability of HNS, corrosion properties, and the mechanism of the improvement of corrosion properties by addition of nitrogen. Finally, as one of the applications of HNS, R&D of coronary stent is introduced in terms of biocompatibility of HNS as well as in vivo test using the stents deployed into pigs’ coronary arteries. It is found that the stent made from nickel-free high-nitrogen stainless steel shows not only very excellent biocompatibility but also outstanding restenosis suppressant effect.
