There have been some significant changes in this standard over JB 4726-2000:
——Design pressure in application scope has been improved to less than 100MPa from not larger than 35MPa;
——Add five steel grades, namely 20MnNiMo, 15NiCuMoNb, 12Cr2Mo1V, 12Cr3MolV and 10Cr9Mo1VNb;
——Degrade phosphorus and sulfur contents of a majority of steel grades;
——Add tensile property index of nominal thickness less than or equal to 100mm for 20Mn and 16Mn steel grades of forgings;
——Improve strength index of 15CrMo and 12CrIMoV steel forgings;
——Improve impact power index of all the steel forgings;
——Describe clearly that the Grade I forgings are only applicable to 20, 35 and 16Mn steel grades of nominal thickness less than or equal to 100mm.
