Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an Ni-containing steel plate which is low in cost and has excellent low-temperature toughness. In view of the object, the Ni-containing steel plate of the present invention has a chemical composition containing by mass % C: 0.01% to 0.15%, Si: 0.02% to 0.20%, Mn: 0.45% to 2.00%, P: 0.020% or less, 5: 0.005% or less, Al: 0.005% to 0.100% Ni: 5.0 to 8.0%, and the balance being Fe and incidental impurities, and has a microstructure containing less than 1.7% by volume fraction of retained austenite when cooled to liquid nitrogen temperature, and having an average grain size of crystal grains surrounded by high-angle grain boundaries with an orientation difference of 15° or more of 5 μm or less by equivalent circle diameter.
