<p>A ferritic stainless steel for use in producing a urea water tank, which contains C: 0.05% or less, N: 0.05% or less, Si: 0.02 to 1.5%, Mn: 0.02 to 2%, and Cr: 15 to 23%, and further contains Nb and/or Ti in an amount of 8(C+N) to 1% with the balance being iron and unavoidable impurities, and which has an effective Cr content of 15% or above as defined by formula (I), (II) or (III). When only Nb is contained, the effective Cr content = Cr + 4Si - 2Mn··· (I); when only Ti is contained, the effective Cr content = Cr + 4Si - 2Mn - 10Ti··· (II); and when Nb and Ti are contained, the effective Cr content = Cr + 4Si - 2Mn - (10Ti - 3Nb)··· (III)</p> |
