Description

DESCRIPTION Title of Invention HEAT-EXCHANGING ALUMINUM ALLOY FIN MATERIAL AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material for use in heat exchangers, and a manufacturing method of the aluminum alloy fin material. Background Art [0002} Air conditioners should recently employ non-CFC refrigerants instead of CFCs to meet controlling of the production and consumption of CFCs and, in addition, should have smaller sizes and smaller weights, or should exhibit higher functions. To meet these requirements, heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin materials for use in heat exchangers typically of air conditioners (hereinafter also conveniently referred to as "fin material(s)") require smaller and smaller thicknesses. For example, some aluminum alloy fin materials have small sheet thicknesses of about 0.15 mm or less, and some recent ones have further smaller thicknesses of down to about 0.09 mm. [0003] Forming processes of fins may be categorized as a drawing process, a drawless process, and a drawing-drawless composite process (combination process). The draw process includes the steps of bulging, drawing, piercing-burring, and reflaring. The drawless process includes the steps of piercing-burring, ironing, and reflaring. The combination process mainly includes the steps of bulging, drawing, piercing-burring, ironing, and reflaring. [0004] In any of the forming processes, the piercing-burring step and the reflaring step for the formation of collars around holes for copper tubes are essential forming steps for fins. These forming processes, however, act severely upon fin materials designed to have small thicknesses of 0.15 mm or less. Fin materials having improved workability have been developed so as to meet such reduction requirements in thickness. [0005] 1 Typically, Patent Literature (PTL) 1 discloses an aluminum alloy fin material which has a thickness of 0.12 mm or less, contains Si and Fe in a predetermined ratio and in predetermined amounts, and has a maximum grain size of 30 sm or less. This aluminum alloy fin material has excellent workability in drawing to form a fin. PTL 2 discloses a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material which has a thickness of less than 0.11 mm, contains Fe and Ti in predetermined amounts, has Si and Cu contents controlled to predetermined levels or less, and has a predetermined elongation percentage. This aluminum alloy fin material excels in resistance to "avec" phenomenon (fin-pitch disorder) and stacking properties. Citation List Patent Literature [0006] PTL 1: Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication (JP-A) No. H11-80869 PTL 2: Japanese Patent No. 4275560 Summary of Invention Technical Problem [0007] The customary fin materials, however, have disadvantages as mentioned below. While the customary techniques are intended to improve workability, demands are still made to further improve workability, because recent heat exchangers are demanded to have further reduced sizes and weights or to have further higher functions, and, in addition, fin materials enabling easier processing or working is expected to be supplied. [0008] Fin materials may often suffer from cracks called "collar cracks" during forming. Specifically, fine cracks are generated at worked edges during the piercing and burying step and become collar cracks in the final reflare forming. Collar cracks, if generated, may facilitate the occurrence of a so-called "avec phenomenon" in which pitches of stacked fins are extremely narrowed when a copper tube is passed through a collared hole and is expanded in a formed article after fin forming. The avec phenomenon disadvantageously increases draft resistance of the heat exchanger. Specifically, collar cracks disadvantageously not only impair appearance of fins but also cause troubles such as insufficient performance of the heat exchanger to thereby impair the product value. To avoid these, demands have 2 been made to develop a fin material that less suffers from the generation of collar cracks. [0009] The present invention has been made under these circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material (aluminum alloy fin material for heat exchangers) which is satisfactorily resistant to collar cracking and less suffers from the generation of collar cracks upon forming process. Solution to Problem [0010] Specifically, the present invention provides a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material which includes Fe in a content of 0.20 to 1.0 % by mass and Cu in a content of 0.02 to 0.1 % by mass, which has a Si content controlled to 0.15 % by mass or less, a Mn content controlled to 0.015 % by mass or less, and a Cr content controlled to 0.015 % by mass or less, and which further includes Al and inevitable impurities, in which the heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material has a thickness of 0.1 mm or less; and the aluminum alloy fin material has an average subgrain size of 2.5 gm or less and a volume fraction of B-fiber of 80% or more. [0011] The fin material having this configuration may exhibit advantages as below. Specifically, the fin material, as containing Fe and Cu in predetermined amounts, has higher strengths due to solid-solution strengthening. The fin material also includes fine subgrains, thereby exhibits a better elongation and undergoes sufficient formation of the 0-fiber. The fin material, as having Si, Mn, and Cr contents controlled within predetermined levels or less, is protected from coarsening of precipitates (i.e., intermetallic compounds). In addition, the fin material, as having an average subgrain size of 2.5 ptm or less and a volume fraction of the B-fiber of 80% or more, has better resistance to collar cracking. [0012] The heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention may further contain Ti in a content of 0.01 to 0.08 % by mass. The fin material, as having this configuration and containing Ti in a predetermined amount, may have a fine ingot structure. [0013]' The heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention may have a surface-treatment coating film on a surface thereof. The 3 surface-treatment coating fihm is typified by a corrosion resistant coating film, a hydrophilic coating film, and a lubricative coating film. The fin material having this configuration can be improved in properties such as corrosion resistance, hydrophilicity, or formability, according to the use environment and intended use. [00141 In addition and advantageously, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing the heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention. This method is a method for manufacturing the aforementioned heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material (one not having a surface-treatment coating film) and includes the steps of heat-treating an aluminum alloy ingot having the chemical composition at a temperature of 450*C to 510*C for a holding time of one hour or longer (heat treatment step); hot-rolling the aluminum alloy ingot after the heat treatment under such conditions that a finish temperature of hot finish rolling be 250"C or higher and lower than 300*C (hot rolling step); cold-working the aluminum alloy material after the hot rolling with a cold working ratio of 96% or more (cold working step); and temper-annealing the aluminum alloy material after the cold working by holding the material at a temperature of 160 0 C to 250*C for a holding time of 1 to 6 hours (temper annealing step). [0015] According to the manufacturing method, the heat treatment step homogenizes the ingot structure, and the hot rolling step rolls the ingot into a hot-rolled sheet without becoming a recrystallization structure. The cold working step allows the sheet to have a thickness of 0.1 mm or less without causing coarsening of subgrains or insufficient formation of the B-fiber after the temper annealing; and the temper annealing step allows the structure to sufficiently recover. These steps give an aluminum alloy fin material having an average subgrain size of 2.5 gm or less and a volume fraction of B-fiber of 80% or more. Advantageous Effects of Invention [0016] The heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention less suffers from collar cracks upon forming process and is thereby protected from disadvantages such as poor appearance of the fin and insufficient performance of the heat exchanger. [0017] 4 The method for manufacturing a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention enables manufacturing of a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material having excellent resistance to collar cracking. Description of Embodiments [0018] Some embodiments of the heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material according to the present invention (hereinafter also conveniently referred to as "fin material") and the manufacturing method of the fin material will be illustrated below. [0019] <Fin Material> A fin material according to an embodiment of the present invention contains Fe and Cu in predetermined amounts, has Si, Mn, and Cr contents controlled to predetermined levels or less, and further contains Al and inevitable impurities. The fin material has a thickness of 0.1 mm or less and has a specific average subgrain size of 2.5 pm or less and a specific volume fraction of 6-fiber of 80% or more. The fin material may further contain Ti in a predetermined amount according to necessity. Hereinafter the chemical composition will be described first, followed by description of other configurations. [0020] Fe: 0.20 to 1.0 % by mass Iron (Fe) element is added to contribute to higher strengths due to solid-solution strengthening, better corrosion resistance, and higher elongation due to finer subgrains. Fe, if contained in a content of less than 0.20 % by mass, may fail to exhibit these effects sufficiently. In contrast, Fe, if contained in a content of more than 1.0 % by mass, may impair the corrosion resistance and may cause precipitates (intermetallic compounds) to be coarse, and such coarse precipitates may act as stress concentration points upon forming process to cause cracks. To avoid these, the Fe content may be 0.20 to 1.0 % by mass. [0021] Cu: 0.02 to 0.1 % by mass Copper (Cu) element is added in a trace amount to contribute to higher strengths due to solid-solution strengthening, better elongation due to finer subgrains, and sufficient formation of the B-fiber. Cu, if contained in a content of 5 less than 0.02 % by mass, may not exhibit these effects sufficiently. In contrast, Cu, if contained in a content of more than 0.1 % by mass, may cause work hardening, thereby impair resistance to "avec" phenomenon (fin-pitch disorder), and invite insufficient resistance to collar cracking and insufficient corrosion resistance. To avoid these, the Cu content may be 0.02 to 0.1 % by mass. The Cu content is more preferably 0.031 to 0.06 % by mass, and furthermore preferably 0.04 to 0.06 % by mass. [0022] Si: 0 % by mass or more and 0.15 % by mass or less Silicon (Si) element is contained as an inevitable impurity. Si, if contained in a content of more than 0.15 % by mass, may cause precipitates (intermetallic compounds) to be coarse, and such coarse precipitates may act as stress concentration points upon forming process to cause cracks. To avoid these, the Si content is controlled to 0.15 % by mass or less. The Si content may be controlled down to 0 % by mass. [0023] Mn: 0 % by mass or more and 0.015 % by mass or less Manganese (Mn) element is included as an inevitable impurity. Mn, if contained in a content of more than 0.015 % by mass, may cause precipitates (intermetallic compounds) to be coarse, and such coarse precipitates may act as stress concentration points upon forming process to cause cracks. To avoid these, the Mn content is controlled to 0.015 % by mass or less. The Mn content may be controlled down to 0 % by mass. [0024] Cr: 0 % by mass or more and 0.015 % by mass or less Chromium (Cr) element is included as an inevitable impurity. Cr, if contained in a content of more than 0.015 % by mass, may cause precipitates (intermetallic compounds) to be coarse, and such coarse precipitates may act as stress concentration points upon forming process to cause cracks. To avoid these, the Cr content is controlled to 0.015 % by mass or less. The Cr content may be controlled down to 0 % by mass. [0025] Ti: 0.01 to 0.08 % by mass Titanium (i) may be added as an Al-Ti-B intermediate alloy so as to allow the ingot to have a finer structure. Specifically, an Al-Ti-B ingot refiner containing Ti and B in a ratio of titanium to boron (T:B) of 5:1 or 5:0.2 may be added in the form 6 of a waffle or rod to a molten metal. The resulting aluminum alloy may contain Ti in a content of up to 0.08 % by mass. The molten metal herein is one before solidification into a slab and fed into any of a melting furnace, inclusion filter, degassing apparatus, or molten metal flow rate controller. Ti, if contained in a content of less than 0.01 % by mass, may not effectively allow the ingot to have a finer structure. In contrast, Ti, if contained in a content of more than 0.08 % by mass, may cause precipitates (intermetallic compounds) to be coarse, and such coarse precipitates may act as stress concentration points upon forming process to cause cracks. To avoid these, the content of Ti, when added, is preferably 0.01 to 0.08 % by mass. [0026] Remainder: Al and inevitable impurities The fin material contains the above chemical compositions (elements) and further contains Al and inevitable impurities. The inevitable impurities are typified by the aforementioned elements, i.e., Si, Mn, and Cr, as well as other elements such as Mg, Zn, Ga, V, and Ni. These elements may be contained in the ingot and/or in the intermediate alloy within generally known ranges and may be contained in the fin material each in a content of at most 0.015 % by mass. [0027] Thickness: 0.1 mm or less The present invention is applied to fin materials having a thickness of 0.1 mm or less, so as to allow the fin materials to have smaller thicknesses to meet the recent requirements of heat exchangers such as reduction in size and weight, and higher functions. Accordingly, the fin material according to the present invention has a thickness of 0.1 mm or less. [0028] Average Size of Subgrains: 2.5 gm or less To exhibit a higher elongation, the fin material having a small thickness of 0.1 mm or less should have an average subgrain size in the alloy of 2.5 pin or less. A fin material having an average subgrain size of more than 2.5 pm may not have a sufficient elongation. To avoid this, the fin material has an average subgrain size of 2.5 gm or less. The average subgrain size is not specified in its lower limit, but may be 0 stm (namely, the fin material does not have to contain subgrains). The fin material, as having an average subgrain size within this range, less suffers from the generation of collar cracks, even when undergoing work hardening by the action typically of solute Mn or solute Cu. 7 [0029] Volume Fraction of B-Fiber: 80% or more As used herein the term "B-fiber" refers to a rolling texture of a face-centered cubic metal and refers to a total sum of Copper orientation, S orientation, and Brass orientation. To have a higher elongation, the fin material having a small thickness of 0.1 mm or less should have a volume fraction of 6-fiber in the alloy of 80% or more. A fin material having a volume fraction of 8-fiber of less than 80% may suffer from the generation of collar cracks with a decreasing Lankford value. The volume fraction of B-fiber is not specified in its upper limit, but may be 100%. [0030] Next, ways to measure the average subgrain size and the volume fraction of 6-fiber will be illustrated. Initially, a structure imaged in the observation under a scanning electron microscope (SEM) is subjected to orientation analysis by an electron backscattered diffraction pattern (EBSP) technique. In the EBSP technique, a specimen is irradiated with electron beams, and crystal orientations are identified using an electron backscattered diffraction pattern formed upon irradiation. The crystal orientations can be analyzed by employing OIM (Orientation Imaging Microscopy: registered trademark) supplied by TexSEM Laboratories, Inc. The volume fraction of 6-fiber is calculated based on the crystal orientation analysis. The average subgrain size is determined by calculating the number of grains based on SEMIEBSP measurement data, dividing the total area of the fin material by the number of grains, approximating the area of each grain to a circle, determining the diameter of the circle, and defining the diameter as the average subgrain size. [0031] The average subgrain size and the volume fraction of 6-fiber can be controlled by the chemical composition and manufacturing conditions mentioned later. Specifically, the average subgrain size may be controlled by contents of respective elements, soaking conditions (temperature and time), finish temperature of hot finish rolling, cold working ratio, and temper annealing conditions (temperature and time). The volume fraction of B-fiber may be controlled by contents of respective elements, soaking conditions (temperature and time), finish temperature of hot finish rolling, cold working ratio, and temper annealing conditions (temperature and time). 8 [0032] The fin material according to the present invention may further have a surface-treatment coating film on a surface thereof. The term "surface" of the fin material refers to one side or both sides of the fin material. Surface-treatment Coating Film The surface-treatment coating film may be typified by chemical conversion coating films, resin coating films, and inorganic coating films as chosen according to the use environment and intended use. Each of these coating films may be employed in combination. Specifically, a resin coating film and/or an inorganic coating film may be provided on a chemical conversion coating film. The resin coating films and the inorganic coating films are typified by corrosion resistant resin coating films, hydrophilic resin coating films, hydrophilic inorganic coating films, and lubricative resin coating films, and each of them may be employed in combination according to necessity. [0033] The chemical conversion coating films are exemplified by phosphate-chromate coating films. The corrosion resistant resin coating films are exemplified by coating films of resins such as epoxy, urethane, acrylic, and polyester resins. These coating films preferably have a thickness of 0.5 to 5 sm. The hydrophilic coating films are typified by coating films of water-glass inorganic substances; resins containing a poly(acrylic acid) or a poly(acrylic acid salt); and resins containing a sulfonic group or a sulfonic group derivative. These coating films preferably have a thickness of 0.05 to 10 pm. The lubricative resin coating films are typified by coating films of resins containing a polyetherpolyol and preferably have a thickness of 0.1 to 10 im. [0034] When two or more of such a corrosion resistant resin coating film, a hydrophilic resin coating film, a hydrophilic inorganic coating film, and a lubricative resin coating film are employed in combination, it is preferred that a hydrophilic resin coating film is provided on a corrosion resistant resin coating film; and that a lubricative resin coating film is provided on a hydrophilic resin coating film or hydrophilic inorganic coating film. [0035] <Manufacturing Method for Fin Material> A method for manufacturing the fin material according to the present invention is a method for manufacturing the fin material and includes a heat 9 treatment step, a hot rolling step, a cold working step, and a temper annealing step. Where necessary, the method may farther include an ingot-making step and/or a surface treatment step. The respective steps will be illustrated below. [0036] Ingot-making Step The ingot-making step is the step of melting and casting an aluminum alloy to make an aluminum alloy ingot. In the ingot-making step, an aluminum alloy having the aforementioned chemical composition is melted to give a molten metal, and the molten metal is cast into an ingot having a predetermined shape. The aluminum alloy may be melted and cast according to a known procedure not limited. Typically, the aluminum alloy may be melted in a vacuum induction furnace and cast through continuous casting or semi-continuous casting. [00371 Heat Treatment Step The heat treatment step is the step of subjecting an aluminum alloy ingot having the chemical composition to a heat treatment (soaking) at a temperature of 450*C to 510*C for a holding time of one hour or longer. A heat treatment at a temperature of lower than 450 0 C may not sufficiently homogenize (soak) the ingot structure, invite insufficient hot workability, and further cause a larger average subgrain size and a smaller volume fraction of B-fiber. In contrast, a heat treatment at a temperature of higher than 510"C may cause fine intermetallic compounds, which will have smaller grain sizes during heating, to be coarse and thereby cause coarse subgrains, resulting in insufficient elongation, and cause a larger amount of solid solution. To avoid these, the heat treatment may be performed at a temperature of 450*C to 510"C. There is no need for specifying the upper limit of the holding time in the heat treatment because the heat treatment can exhibit the effects as long as performed for a holding time of one hour or longer. However, a heat treatment for a holding time longer than 10 hours may exhibit saturated effects, and from the economical viewpoint, the heat treatment is preferably performed for a holding time of 1 to 10 hours. [0038] Hot Rolling Step 10 The hot rolling step is the step of subjecting the material after the heat treatment to hot rolling under such conditions that a finish temperature of hot finish rolling be 250*C or higher and lower than 300*C. A hot finish rolling performed with a finish temperature of lower than 250*C may cause insufficient rolling properties of the material, and this may impede rolling itself or impede the thickness control, resulting in poor productivity. In contrast, a hot finish rolling performed with a finish temperature of 300*C or higher may cause the resulting hot-rolled sheet to have a recrystallized structure, and the recrystallized structure may form a group of fibrous crystals having an identical crystal orientation to cause necking in the piercing and burying step. This hot finish rolling may also cause the fin material to have a small volume fraction of B-fiber. To avoid these, the hot finish rolling may be performed with a finish temperature of 250*C or higher and lower than 300*C and is more preferably performed with a finish temperature of 260 0 C to 290"C. [0039] Cold Working Step The cold working step is the step of subjecting the material after the hot rolling to a cold working (cold rolling) to a cold working ratio of 96% or more. After the completion of the hot rolling, the cold working is performed once or multiple times to allow the fin material to have a desired final thickness. However, a cold working performed to a cold working ratio of less than 96% may cause the fin material to have coarse subgrains after the temper annealing and to suffer from insufficient formation of B-fiber. To avoid these, the cold working is performed to a cold working ratio of 96% or more. If a process annealing is performed in the middle of cold working, the term "cold working ratio" refers to a reduction of area after the process annealing down to the final thickness. Accordingly, a process annealing is not employed herein because, if a process annealing is performed, a cold working ratio of 96% or more may not be achieved. The upper limit of the cold working ratio is not critical, because the higher cold working ratio is, the better. [0040 Temper Annealing Step The temper annealing (refining heat treatment) step is the step of subjecting the fin material after the cold working to a temper annealing (final annealing) at a temperature of 160"C to 250"C for a holding time of 1 to 6 hours. A temper annealing at a temperature of lower than 1600C may not achieve sufficiently effective recovery of the structure. In contrast, a temper annealing at a 11 temperature of higher than 2500C may cause the generation of recrystallized grains after the heat treatment, and these recrystallized grains may cause cracks. In addition, the fin material may fail to have sufficiently fine subgrains and suffer from insufficient formation of 6-fiber. To avoid these, the temper annealing may be performed at a temperature of 160*C to 250*C. [0041] When the fin material is to be subjected to drawless forming, the temper annealing is preferably performed at a temperature of up to 210*C in terms of upper limit. When a fin material having undergone a temper annealing at a temperature of higher than 210*C is subjected to drawless forming, the fin material may be liable to exhibit somewhat lower formability than one having undergone combination forming. However, a fin material having undergone a temper annealing at a temperature of 210*C or lower may exhibit further better formability than one having undergone a temper annealing at a temperature of higher than 210*C. For these reasons, the temper annealing on a fin material to be subjected to drawless forming is preferably performed at a temperature of 160*C to 210*C. The temper annealing is generally performed for a holding time of one hour or longer, and a temper annealing performed for a holding time of longer than 6 hours may exhibit saturated effects. For these reasons, the temper annealing is economically preferably performed for a holding time of 1 to 6 hours. [0042] Surface Treatment Step The surface treatment step is the step of applying a surface treatment to the fin material after the temper annealing. A chemical conversion coating film, when to be formed in the surface treatment step, may be formed by a chemical conversion treatment using a common coat-type or reactive agent. A resin coating film, when to be formed, may be formed by applying a resin composition using a roll coater and drying the applied film. The resin coating film is typified by a corrosion resistant resin coating film, a hydrophilic resin coating film, and a lubricative resin coating film. [0043] The method according to the present invention may further include one or more other steps between, before, or after the respective steps within ranges not adversely affecting the respective steps. Typically, the method may further include one or more of steps such as foreign substance removing step for removing foreign substances such as dust; facing step of applying facing to the ingot; and machining 12 step of suitably performing machining so as to provide a fin material after the temper annealing step or the surface treatment step. [0044] The resulting fin material according to the present invention may be subjected to a forming process according to the type of forming procedure and is particularly advantageously subjected to drawless forming or combination forming. The drawless forming performs piercing and burying (piercing and burring forming) in the first step; ironing in the second and third steps; and reflaring in the fourth step. The combination forming performs bulging in the first step; draw forming in the second step; piercing and burring (piercing and burring forming) in the third step; ironing in the fourth step; and reflaring in the fifth step. The fin material according to the present invention excels in resistance to collar cracking and thereby less suffers from collar cracks upon these forming processes. EXAMPLES [0045] While having been described with reference to embodiments thereof, the present invention will be illustrated in further detail with reference to several working examples exhibiting advantageous effects of the present invention in comparison to comparative examples not satisfying the conditions specified in the present invention. It should be noted, however, that these examples are never construed to limit the scope of the present invention. [0046] [Preparation of Specimens] Examples Nos. 1 to 11 and Comparative Examples Nos. 12 to 20 Aluminum alloys having compositions given in Table 1 were melted and cast into ingots, the ingots were subjected to facing and subsequently to soaking at 480*C for 4 hours. The soaked (homogenized) ingots were subjected to hot rolling controlled so as to perform hot finish rolling with a finish temperature of 270*C, and yielded hot-rolled sheets having a thickness of 3.0 mm. The hot-rolled sheets were respectively subjected to cold rolling to a cold working ratio of about 97.0% or about 97.3% so as to have a thickness of 90 gm or 80 gm, subjected to temper annealing at temperatures for holding times each given in Table 1, and thereby yielded fin materials. [0047] Examples Nos. 21 to 26 and Comparative Examples Nos. 27 to 33 13 Aluminum alloys given in Table 2 (corresponding to Alloys A, B, and D in Table 1) were melted and cast into ingots, the ingots were subjected sequentially to facing, soaking, and hot rolling, and thereby yielded hot-rolled sheets having a thickness of 3.0 mm. The specimens other than No. 33 were respectively subjected to cold rolling to a cold working ratio of about 97.0% or about 97.3% so as to have a thickness of 90 sm or 80 gm, subjected to temper annealing, and thereby yielded fin materials. In Specimen No. 33, the hot-rolled sheets having a thickness of 3.0 mm were subjected to cold rolling to a cold working ratio of 50%, and then subjected to a process annealing in a batch furnace at 360 0 C for 3 hours. The sheets were then respectively subjected to cold rolling to a cold working ratio of about 94.0% or about 94.7% so as to have a thickness of 90 gm or 80 gm, subjected to temper annealing, and thereby yielded fin materials. Soaking conditions, finish temperatures of hot finish rolling, and temper annealing conditions are as indicated in Table 2. Specimen No. 29 was impossible to manufacture a fin material. [0048] Examples Nos. 34 to 37 and Comparative Examples Nos. 38 to 41 Following surface treatments (Nos. 1 to 4) were performed on fin materials of Nos. 34 and 35 (corresponding to No. 21 in Table 2); fin materials of Nos. 36 and 37 (corresponding to No. 22 in Table 2); fin materials of Nos. 38 and 39 (corresponding to No. 27 in Table 2); and fin materials of Nos. 40 and 41 (corresponding to No. 32 in Table 2). [0049] Surface Treatment No. 1: a surface treatment under the same conditions as Comparative Example 1 in JP-A No. 2010-223520 (to provide a chemical conversion coating film, a hydrophilic coating film, and a lubricative coating film in this order) Surface Treatment No. 2: a surface treatment under the same conditions as Example 1 in Japanese Patent No. 3383914 (to provide a chemical conversion coating film, a hydrophilic coating film, and a lubricative resin coating film in this order) Surface Treatment No. 3: a surface treatment under the same conditions as Example 1 in JP-A No. 2008-224204 (to provide a chemical conversion coating film, a corrosion resistant resin coating film, and a hydrophilic coating film in this order) Surface Treatment No. 4: a surface treatment under the same conditions as Comparative Example 21 in JP-A No. 2010-223514 (to provide a chemical conversion coating film and a corrosion resistant resin coating film in this order) [0050] 14 The chemical compositions are given in Table 1, and manufacturing conditions are given in Tables 2 and 3. In these tables, data not falling within a range specified in the present invention are underlined, and a composition (element) not contained is indicated by "2'. Specimen No. 29 was impossible to manufacture a fin material and is indicated by "-" in the temper annealing. Specimen No. 19 (Alloy C) corresponds to an aluminum alloy fin material described in PTL 2; Specimen No. 20 (Alloy D) corresponds to an aluminum alloy fin described in PTL 1 but manufactured under different conditions; and Specimen No. 32 corresponds to an aluminum alloy sheet described in PTL 1. [0051] Next, the average subgrain sizes and volume fractions of 6-fiber of the fin materials in terms of their structure morphologies were measured by the following methods. In addition, strengths and elongations thereof were measured by the following methods. [0052] [Average Subgrain Size] An average subgrain size was measured in the following manner. The structure of a specimen surface was imaged in the observation under a scanning electron microscopic (SEN) at a 1000-fold magnification, orientations of which were analyzed by EBSP at measurement intervals of 0.10 grm to give data, and the data were automatically calculated on OIM (Orientation Imaging Microscopy: registered trademark) software supplied by TexSEM Laboratories, Inc. to give an average subgrain size. Specifically, the number of grains was counted based on the SEM/EBSP measured data, the total area of the specimen fin material was divided by the number of grains, the area of each grain was approximated to a circle, and a diameter of the circle was defined as the average subgrain size. The number of grains was counted so that a grain surrounded by grain boundaries with a difference in orientation between adjacent grains of 2* or less is defined as one grain. [0053] [Volume Fraction of B-Fiber] A volume fraction of 6-fiber was measured in the following manner. The structure of a specimen surface was imaged in the observation under a scanning electron microscope (SEM) at a 1000-fold magnification, orientations of which were analyzed by EBSP at measurement intervals of 0.10 sm to give data, and the data were automatically calculated on OIM (Orientation Imaging Microscopy: registered trademark) software supplied by TexSEM Laboratories, Inc. to give a volume 15 fraction of B-fiber. Specifically, a total of volume fractions of Brass orientation, S orientation, and Copper orientation in the area of a total field of view of 2 mm by 2 mm or more of the image of the specimen surface was defined as the volume fraction of 8-fiber. For each orientation, orientations within 150 from the ideal orientation were analyzed as an identical orientation component. [0054] [Strength and Elongation] From the fin materials, Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) No. 5 tensile specimens were cut so that the tensile direction be parallel to the rolling direction. The specimens were subjected to tensile tests according to JIS Z 2241 to measure a tensile strength and an elongation. The tensile tests for the evaluation of the examples and comparative examples were performed at a tensile speed of 5 mm/min. [0055] [Evaluations] The prepared fin materials were stamped (press-formed) through drawless forming and combination forming, respectively, and examined on resistance to collar cracking. The resistance to collar cracking was evaluated by visually counting cracks generated in collars around 400 holes formed by stamping. A frequency was calculated according to the expression: "(Number of cracks)/400x100 (%)". A sample having a frequency of less than 5% was evaluated as excellent, a sample having a frequency of 5% or more and less than 10% was evaluated as good, a sample having a frequency of 10% or more and less than 20% was evaluated as fair, and a sample having a frequency of 20% or more was evaluated as failure. A sample evaluated as any of excellent, good, and fair in all the specimens having thicknesses of 90 [tm and 80 gm formed through drawless forming and the specimens thicknesses of 90 gm and 80 gm formed through combination forming was evaluated as accepted. [0056] The results of measurements and evaluations are indicated in Tables 1 to 3. In Tables 1 to 3, data out of a range specified in the present invention are underlined, and data on a sample which was impossible to give a fin material and was impossible to measure and evaluate is indicated by -.

[0061] By contrast, Specimens Nos. 12 to 20 as the comparative examples had chemical compositions out of the range specified in the present invention and had the following results. Specimen No. 12 had a Si content higher than the upper limit, thereby suffered from larger amounts of coarse intermetallic compounds, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0062] Specimen No. 13 had an Fe content of less than the lower limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 14 had an Fe content of more than the upper limit, thereby suffered from larger amounts of coarse intermetallic compounds, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0063] Specimen No. 15 had a.Cu content of less than the lower limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit, had a volume fraction of B-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 16 had a Cu content of more than the upper limit, thereby underwent work hardening, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0064] Specimen No. 17 had a Mn content of more than the upper limit, suffered from larger amounts of coarse intermetallic compounds, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 18 had a Cr content of more than the upper limit, thereby suffered from larger amounts of coarse intermetallic compounds, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0065] Specimen No. 19 had a Ti content of more than the upper limit, thereby suffered from coarse intermetallic compounds, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 20 did not contain Cu and underwent temper annealing at an excessively high temperature, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than 20 the upper limit, had a volume fraction of B-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0066] Evaluation Based on Manufacturing Method As is demonstrated by Table 2, Specimens Nos. 21 to 26 as the examples were manufactured by methods under conditions within the range specified in the present invention and thereby exhibited satisfactory resistance to collar cracking. [0067] By contrast, Specimens Nos. 27 to 33 as the comparative examples were manufactured by methods under conditions out of the range specified in the present invention and had the following results. Specimen No. 27 underwent soaking at a temperature of lower than the lower limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit and a volume fraction of B-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 28 underwent soaking at a temperature of higher than the upper limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0068] Specimen No. 29 underwent hot finish rolling with a finish temperature of lower than the lower limit, was hardly rolled, and was impossible to manufacture a fin material. Specimen No. 30 underwent hot finish rolling with a finish temperature of higher than the upper limit, thereby had a volume fraction of B-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. Specimen No. 31 underwent temper annealing at a temperature of higher than the upper limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit, had a volume fraction of 6-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0069] Specimen No. 32 underwent soaking at a temperature of higher than the upper limit, underwent hot finish rolling with a finish temperature of lower than the lower limit, and underwent temper annealing at a temperature of higher than the upper limit, thereby had an average subgrain size of more than the upper limit, had a volume fraction of 6-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. This specimen was rolled with difficulty. Specimen No. 33 underwent process annealing, thereby underwent cold rolling to a cold working ratio of less than the lower limit, had an average subgrain size of more than the upper 21 limit, had a volume fraction of B-fiber of less than the lower limit, and exhibited poor resistance to collar cracking. [0070] Evaluation of Specimens Subjected to Surface Treatment Specimens Nos. 34 to 41 as fin materials subjected to a surface treatment exhibited resistance to collar cracking similar to that of corresponding fin materials not subjected to the surface treatment. [0071] The fin materials of Specimens Nos. 19, 20, and 32 correspond to customary aluminum alloy fin materials described in PTL 2, PTL 1, and PTL 1, respectively. As is demonstrated by this experimental example, the customary aluminum alloy fin materials did not meet the predetermined levels in the evaluations. This experimental example therefore objectively demonstrates that the heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin materials according to the present invention are superior to the customary aluminum alloy fin materials. [0072] Although there has been described above specific embodiments and working examples of a heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin material and a manufacturing method thereof in accordance with the present invention, it will be appreciated that the invention is not limited thereto. It will naturally be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made in the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. [0073] The present application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-198326 filed on September 3, 2010 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-080856 filed on March 31, 2011, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Industrial Applicability [0074] Heat-exchanging aluminum alloy fin materials according to the present invention do not suffer from collar cracks upon forming process and give fins with good appearances to constitute high-performance heat exchangers. 22
