A high-strength steel having improved resistance to hydrogen embrittlement characterized as being essentially free of manganese and having a stable rare earth oxymetalloid dispersion consisting of, e. g. , lanthanum oxysulfide and lanthanum phosphate. The steel prepared using rapid solidification processing coupled with late addition of the rare earth.
