About CPM-S35VN Stainless Steel
CPM-S35VN is a martensitic stainless steel designed to offer improved toughness over CPM-S30V. It is easier to machine and polish than CPM-S30V due to its rebalanced chemistry, which forms some niobium carbides along with vanadium and chromium carbides. By substituting niobium carbides for some of the vanadium carbides, CPM-S35VN is about 15-20% tougher than CPM-S30V without any loss of wear resistance. This improved toughness gives it better resistance to edge chipping, and both vanadium and niobium carbides are harder and more effective than chromium carbides in providing wear resistance. Consequently, CPM stainless blade steels offer improved edge retention over conventional high chromium steels such as 440C and D2.
