The technical differences, together with their reasons are given in Annex B for reference.
For the convenience of application, the following editorial modifications are made in this standard:
——The standard name is changed from "Ferritic-pearlitic engineering steels for precipitation hardening from hot-working temperatures" to "Microalloyed medium carbon steels".
This standard was proposed by China Iron and Steel Industry Association.
This standard is under the jurisdiction of the National Technical Committee on Iron and Steel of Standardization Administration of China (SAC/TC 183).
