Stainless steel foil
According to aspects of the invention, provided are an Fe—Cr—Al-based stainless steel sheet which has improved manufacturability by improving the toughness of a hot-rolled steel sheet and a cold-rolled steel sheet without deteriorating oxidation resistance at a high temperature and shape stability when used at a high temperature, and a stainless steel foil which is manufactured by rolling the stainless steel sheet. V and B are added in combination to Fe—Cr—Al-based stainless steel in amounts within specified ranges. Specifically, V content is controlled to be 0.010% or more and 0.050% or less and B content is controlled to be 0.0001% or more and 0.0050% or less, in which the relationship {V content (V %)}/{B content (B %)}>10 is satisfied.
1. A stainless steel foil having a chemical composition containing, by mass %, C: 0.020% or less, Si: 0.2% or less, Mn: 1.0% or less, P: 0.040% or less, S: 0.004% or less, Cr: 16.0% or more and 30.0% or less, Al: 2.00% or more and 6.50% or less, N: 0.020% or less, Ni: 0.05% or more and 0.50% or less, Cu: 0.005% or more and 0.10% or less, Ti: less than 0.050%, Nb: less than 0.050%, V: 0.010% or more and 0.050% or less, B: 0.0001% or more and 0.0050% or less, Mo: 2.5% or more and 6.0% or less, at least one of Zr: 0.005% or more and 0.200% or less, Hf: 0.005% or more and 0.200% or less, and REM (rare earth metals): 0.01% or more and 0.20% or less, and the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities and having a thickness of 200 μm or less, wherein
a relationship {V content (V %)}/{B content (B %)}>10 is satisfied.
