Chinese scientists say that a new super steel, called China high-strength low-temperature steel No. 1, (CHSN01), can operate at a maximum of 20 Tesla, which outperforms the steel jacket that will be used by ITER. Now, a new report from the state-run South China Morning Post (SCMP) suggests that Chinese scientists have come up with a new material that has even ITER’s steel jacket of choice beat. This super steel, called China high-strength low-temperature steel No. Scientists detailed the 12-year process to create this particular steel jacket in the journal Applied Sciences this past May.
