Abstract
Relationship between absorbed energy and chemical composition for 308 and 316 type deposited metals of austenitic stainless steels at 4K was investigated by a multiple regression analysis of experimental data. The multiple correlation coefficient of regression equation was 0.917 and the equation is described asvE=390-19.9×(%Cr)+6.00×(%Ni)-35.3×(%Nb)-784×(%0)-1890×(%P)+98.8×(%Si)-3.34×(%Mn)-9.16×(%Mo)
where vE is absorbed energy at 4K (J) and %Cr, %Ni etc. are mass % (wt%) of each element.
