Description

High-strength steel sheet having excellent workability and method for producing same
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a steel sheet that can be used for automobile parts and the like, and to a steel sheet having high strength characteristics and excellent workability, and a method for manufacturing the same.
Background
In recent years, in order to protect the global environment, the automobile industry is focusing on a method for ensuring passenger stability while achieving weight reduction of materials. In order to satisfy such requirements for stability and weight reduction, the use of high-strength steel sheets is sharply increasing. In general, it is known that the workability of a steel sheet decreases as the strength of the steel sheet increases. Therefore, in steel sheets for automobile parts, steel sheets having high strength characteristics and excellent workability such as ductility, bending workability, and hole expansibility are required.
As a technique for improving workability of a steel sheet, patent documents 1 and 2 disclose a method using tempered martensite. Since tempered martensite produced by tempering hard martensite is soft martensite, the tempered martensite has a strength different from that of existing untempered martensite (fresh martensite). Therefore, workability can be increased when the formation of tempered martensite is suppressed by the formation of new martensite.
However, in the techniques disclosed in patent documents 1 and 2, the balance (TS × El) between the tensile strength and the elongation cannot satisfy 22000 MPa% or more, which means that it is difficult to secure a steel sheet excellent in both strength and ductility.
In order to obtain high strength and excellent workability of steel sheets for automobile parts, Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steels have been developed which utilize Transformation Induced Plasticity of retained austenite. Patent document 3 discloses TRIP steel having excellent strength and workability.
Patent document 3 attempts to improve ductility and workability by including polygonal ferrite, retained austenite, and martensite, but it is known that high strength cannot be ensured because the main phase is bainite, and the balance (TS × El) between tensile strength and elongation cannot satisfy 22000 Mpa% or more.
That is, there is a demand for a steel sheet having high strength and excellent workability such as ductility, bending workability, and hole expansibility.

Therefore, in order to achieve the above-described effects, carbon (C) may be contained in an amount of 0.25% or more in the present invention. The preferable carbon (C) content may exceed 0.25%, and may be 0.27% or more, 0.30% or more. The more preferable carbon (C) content may be 0.31% or more. On the other hand, when the carbon (C) content exceeds a certain level, cold rolling may be difficult due to an excessive increase in strength. Therefore, in the present invention, the upper limit of the carbon (C) content may be limited to 0.75%. The carbon (C) content may be 0.70% or less, and more preferably 0.67% or less.
Silicon (Si): 4.0% or less (except 0%)
Silicon (Si) is an element that contributes to strength enhancement by solid-solution strengthening, and is also an element that improves workability by strengthening ferrite and making the structure uniform. Silicon (Si) is an element that contributes to the formation of residual austenite by suppressing the precipitation of cementite. Therefore, in order to achieve the above-described effects, silicon (Si) must be added in the present invention. The preferable content of silicon (Si) may be 0.02% or more, and the more preferable content of silicon (Si) may be 0.05% or more. However, when the content of silicon (Si) exceeds a certain level, plating defects such as unplating are caused in the plating process and weldability of the steel sheet may be lowered, so the upper limit of the content of silicon (Si) may be limited to 4.0% in the present invention. The upper limit of the preferable silicon (Si) content may be 3.8%, and the upper limit of the more preferable silicon (Si) content may be 3.5%.
Aluminum (Al): below 5.0% (except 0%)
Aluminum (Al) is an element that acts as a deoxidizing agent by binding with oxygen in steel. Further, like silicon (Si), aluminum (Al) is an element that stabilizes residual austenite by suppressing precipitation of cementite. Therefore, in order to achieve the above-described effects, aluminum (Al) must be added in the present invention. The preferable aluminum (Al) content may be 0.05% or more, and the more preferable aluminum (Al) content may be 0.1% or more. On the other hand, when too much aluminum (Al) is added, inclusions of the steel sheet increase and workability of the steel sheet may be lowered, so the upper limit of the aluminum (Al) content may be limited to 5.0% in the present invention. The upper limit of the preferable aluminum (Al) content may be 4.75%, and the upper limit of the more preferable aluminum (Al) content may be 4.5%.
In addition, the total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) (Si + Al) is preferably 1.0 to 6.0%. Since silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) are components that affect the formation of a microstructure and affect ductility, bending workability, and hole expansibility in the present invention, the total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) is preferably 1.0 to 6.0%. The more preferable total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) (Si + Al) may be 1.5% or more, and may be 4.0% or less.
Manganese (Mn): 0.9 to 5.0 percent
Manganese (Mn) is a useful element for improving both strength and ductility. Therefore, in order to achieve the effects as described above, the lower limit of the manganese (Mn) content may be limited to 0.9% in the present invention. The lower limit of the preferred manganese (Mn) content may be 1.0%, and the lower limit of the more preferred manganese (Mn) content may be 1.1%. On the other hand, when manganese (Mn) is excessively added, since the bainite transformation time increases, the enrichment of carbon (C) in austenite is insufficient, and thus there is a problem that a desired austenite fraction cannot be secured. Therefore, in the present invention, the upper limit of the manganese (Mn) content may be limited to 5.0%. The upper limit of the preferred manganese (Mn) content may be 4.7%, and the upper limit of the more preferred manganese (Mn) content may be 4.5%.
Phosphorus (P): less than 0.15% (including 0%)
Phosphorus (P) is an element that is contained as an impurity and deteriorates impact toughness. Therefore, the content of phosphorus (P) is preferably controlled to 0.15% or less.
Sulfur (S): less than 0.03% (including 0%)
Sulfur (S) is an element that is contained as an impurity and forms MnS in a steel sheet to deteriorate ductility. Therefore, the content of sulfur (S) is preferably 0.03% or less.
Nitrogen (N): less than 0.03% (including 0%)
Nitrogen (N) is an element that is contained as an impurity and forms a nitride during continuous casting to cause cracking of a slab. Therefore, the content of nitrogen (N) is preferably 0.03% or less.
The steel sheet of the present invention has an alloy composition that can be further contained in addition to the above alloy components, and this will be described in detail below.
Titanium (Ti): 0-0.5%, niobium (Nb): 0-0.5% and vanadium (V): 0-0.5% of more than one
Titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V) are elements that form precipitates to refine crystal grains, and also contribute to improvement of strength and impact toughness of the steel sheet, and therefore, in the present invention, one or more of titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V) may be added for the above-described effects. However, when the respective contents of titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V) exceed a certain level, excessive precipitates are formed to lower impact toughness and also to increase manufacturing cost, so that the contents of titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V) may be limited to 0.5% or less, respectively, in the present invention.
Chromium (Cr): 0-3.0% and molybdenum (Mo): 0-3.0% of one or more
Chromium (Cr) and molybdenum (Mo) inhibit austenite decomposition at the time of alloying treatment, and are elements that stabilize austenite like manganese (Mn), and therefore, in the present invention, one or more of chromium (Cr) and molybdenum (Mo) may be added for the effect as described above. However, when the contents of chromium (Cr) and molybdenum (Mo) exceed a certain level, the enrichment amount of carbon (C) in austenite is insufficient due to an increase in bainite transformation time, and thus a desired residual austenite fraction cannot be secured. Therefore, in the present invention, the contents of chromium (Cr) and molybdenum (Mo) may be limited to 3.0% or less, respectively.
Copper (Cu): 0-4.5% and nickel (Ni): 0-4.5% of more than one
Copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) are elements that stabilize austenite and inhibit corrosion. In addition, copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) are elements that are concentrated on the surface of the steel sheet and prevent the intrusion of hydrogen that migrates into the steel sheet to suppress hydrogen-induced delayed fracture. Therefore, in the present invention, one or more of copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) may be added for the above-described effects. However, when the contents of copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) exceed a certain level, excessive characteristic effects are caused and the manufacturing cost is increased, so that the contents of copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) may be respectively limited to 4.5% or less in the present invention.
Boron (B): 0 to 0.005 percent
Boron (B) is an element that improves strength by improving hardenability, and is also an element that suppresses nucleation of grain boundaries. Therefore, boron (B) may be added in the present invention for the effect described above. However, when the content of boron (B) exceeds a certain level, excessive characteristic effects are caused and the production cost is increased, so that the content of boron (B) may be limited to 0.005% or less in the present invention.
Calcium (Ca): 0-0.05%, magnesium (Mg): 0-0.05% and rare earth elements (REM) other than yttrium (Y): 0-0.05%
Among them, rare earth elements (REM) refer to scandium (Sc), yttrium (Y), and lanthanoid elements. Since the rare earth elements (REM) other than calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and yttrium (Y) are elements that contribute to improvement of ductility of the steel sheet by spheroidizing sulfides, one or more of the rare earth elements (REM) other than calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and yttrium (Y) may be added in the present invention to achieve the above-described effects. However, since the content of the rare earth element (REM) other than calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and yttrium (Y) exceeds a certain level, an excessive characteristic effect is caused and the production cost is increased, the content of the rare earth element (REM) other than calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and yttrium (Y) may be limited to 0.05% or less in the present invention.
Tungsten (W): 0-0.5% and zirconium (Zr): 0-0.5% of more than one
Tungsten (W) and zirconium (Zr) are elements that increase the strength of the steel sheet by improving hardenability, and therefore, in the present invention, one or more of tungsten (W) and zirconium (Zr) may be added for the effects described above. However, when the contents of tungsten (W) and zirconium (Zr) exceed a certain level, excessive characteristic effects are caused and this may cause an increase in manufacturing cost, so that the contents of tungsten (W) and zirconium (Zr) may be limited to 0.5% or less, respectively, in the present invention.
Antimony (Sb): 0-0.5% and tin (Sn): 0-0.5% of more than one
Antimony (Sb) and tin (Sn) are elements that improve plating wettability and plating adhesion of the steel sheet, and therefore, in the present invention, one or more of antimony (Sb) and tin (Sn) may be added for the effects described above. However, when the contents of antimony (Sb) and tin (Sn) exceed a certain level, the brittleness of the steel sheet increases, and cracks may be generated at the time of hot working or cold working, so the contents of antimony (Sb) and tin (Sn) may be limited to 0.5% or less, respectively, in the present invention.
Yttrium (Y): 0-0.2% and hafnium (Hf): 0-0.2% of more than one
Since yttrium (Y) and hafnium (Hf) are elements that improve the corrosion resistance of the steel sheet, one or more of yttrium (Y) and hafnium (Hf) may be added in the present invention for the above-described effects. However, when the contents of yttrium (Y) and hafnium (Hf) exceed a certain level, the ductility of the steel sheet may be deteriorated, and thus the contents of yttrium (Y) and hafnium (Hf) may be limited to 0.2% or less, respectively, in the present invention.
Cobalt (Co): 0 to 1.5 percent
Since cobalt (Co) is an element that increases the TRIP effect by promoting bainite transformation, cobalt (Co) may be added in the present invention for the purpose of the above-described effect. However, when the content of cobalt (Co) exceeds a certain level, weldability and ductility of the steel sheet may be deteriorated, and thus the content of cobalt (Co) may be limited to 1.5% or less in the present invention.
The high-strength steel sheet having excellent workability according to one aspect of the present invention may contain Fe and other inevitable impurities in addition to the above components in the balance. However, impurities that are not required are inevitably mixed from the raw materials or the surrounding environment in a general manufacturing process, and thus cannot be completely excluded. These impurities are well known to those skilled in the art and therefore not all of them are specifically mentioned in this specification. Further, further addition of active ingredients other than the above ingredients is not completely excluded.
The microstructure of the high-strength steel sheet excellent in workability according to one aspect of the present invention may include tempered martensite, bainite, residual austenite, and ferrite. As a preferable example, the high-strength steel sheet excellent in workability according to one aspect of the present invention may include, in volume fraction, 30 to 70% of tempered martensite, 10 to 45% of bainite, 10 to 40% of retained austenite, 3 to 20% of ferrite, and an unavoidable microstructure. The unavoidable structure of the present invention may include Fresh Martensite (Fresh martentite), pearlite, island Martensite (Martensite-Austenite Constituent (M-a)), and the like. When too much new martensite or pearlite is formed, workability of the steel sheet is reduced, or the fraction of retained austenite may be reduced.
In the high-strength steel sheet excellent in workability according to one aspect of the present invention, the following [ relational formula 1]]The average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the ferrite ([ Si + Al)] F Weight percent) and the average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the steel sheet ([ Si + Al)] av Wt.%) may satisfy the range of 1.02 to 1.45.
[ relational expression 1]
1.02≤[Si+Al] F /[Si+Al] av ≤1.45
In addition, in the high-strength steel sheet excellent in workability according to one aspect of the present invention, the steel sheet is formed by [ relational expression 2] below]Balance of tensile Strength and elongation (B) T·E ) 22000 (MPa%) or more, and is represented by the following relational expression 3]Balance of tensile Strength and hole expansion ratio (B) T·H ) Is 7 x 10 6 (MPa 21/2 ) Above, is represented by the following [ relational expression 4]]Indicated bending ratio (B) R ) Satisfies the range of 0.5 to 3.0, and thus the steel sheet may have an excellent balance of strength and ductility and a balance of strength and hole expansibility, and may have excellent bending workability.
[ relational expression 2]

[ relational expression 3]
B T·H Not [ tensile strength (TS, MPa) ]] 2 [ hole expansion ratio (HER%)] 1/2
[ relational expression 4]
B R =R/t
In the relational expression 4, R represents the minimum bending radius (mm) at which no crack is generated after the 90 DEG bending test, and t represents the thickness (mm) of the steel plate.
The present invention is directed to ensuring high strength characteristics and excellent ductility and bendability at the same time, and therefore it is important to stabilize the retained austenite of the steel sheet. In order to stabilize the residual austenite, it is necessary to enrich carbon (C) and manganese (Mn) in the austenite in ferrite, bainite, and tempered martensite of the steel sheet. However, when carbon (C) is concentrated in austenite using ferrite, the strength of the steel sheet may be insufficient due to the low strength characteristics of ferrite, and an excessive difference in phase hardness occurs, thereby possibly decreasing the Hole Expansion Ratio (HER). Therefore, in the present invention, carbon (C) and manganese (Mn) are enriched in austenite by using bainite and tempered martensite.
When the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in the residual austenite are limited within a certain range, a large amount of carbon (C) and manganese (Mn) can be enriched in the residual austenite from bainite and tempered martensite, and thus the residual austenite can be effectively stabilized. Further, as the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in austenite are limited to a certain range, the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in ferrite may be increased. As the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in ferrite increase, the hardness of ferrite increases, and the difference in the hardness between ferrite, which is a soft structure, and tempered martensite, bainite, and retained austenite, which is a hard structure, can be effectively reduced.
Therefore, in the present invention, the average total content ([ Si + Al ") of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in ferrite is set] F Weight percent) and the average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the steel sheet ([ Si + Al)] av And wt.%) is limited to 1.02 or more, so that the difference in hardness between the soft tissue and the hard tissue can be effectively reduced. On the other hand, when the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in ferrite are too large, the ferrite is rather hardened excessively, resulting in a reduction in workability, and therefore, it is not possible to simultaneously secure a desired balance (TS × El) between tensile strength and elongation and a desired balance (TS) between tensile strength and hole expansion ratio 2 ×HER 1/2 ) And a bending ratio (R/t). Therefore, in the present invention, the average total content ([ Si + Al ") of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in ferrite can be adjusted] F Weight percent) and the average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the steel sheet ([ Si + Al)] av Weight%) is limited to 1.45 or less.
The steel sheet including the retained austenite has excellent ductility and bending workability due to transformation induced plasticity generated when austenite is transformed into martensite in working. When the fraction of retained austenite is less than a certain level, the balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El) is less than 22000 MPa%, or the bending workability (R/t) may exceed 3.0. In addition, when the fraction of the retained austenite exceeds a certain level, Local Elongation (Local Elongation) may be reduced. Therefore, in the present invention, in order to obtain a steel sheet excellent in the balance (TS × El) of tensile strength and elongation and the bending workability (R/t), the fraction of retained austenite may be limited to the range of 10 to 40 vol%.
In addition, both untempered martensite (fresh martensite) and tempered martensite are fine structures that improve the strength of the steel sheet. However, the newly grown martensite has a characteristic of greatly reducing the ductility and hole expansibility of the steel sheet, as compared with tempered martensite. This is because the fine structure of the tempered martensite is softened by the tempering heat treatment. Therefore, in the present invention, tempered martensite is preferably used in order to provide a steel sheet excellent in balance between strength and ductility, balance between strength and hole expansibility, and bending workability. When the fraction of tempered martensite is less than a certain level, it is difficult to ensure the balance (TS × El) of tensile strength and elongation of 22000 MPa% or more or 7 × 10 6 (MPa 21/2 ) The balance between tensile Strength and hole expansibility (TS) 2 ×HER 1/2 ) When the fraction of tempered martensite exceeds a certain level, ductility and workability are lowered, and therefore the balance (TS × El) of tensile strength and elongation is less than 22000 MPa%, or the bending workability (R/t) exceeds 3.0, which is not preferable. Therefore, in the present invention, in order to obtain the balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El), and the balance of tensile strength and hole expansion (TS:) 2 ×HER 1/2 ) And a steel sheet excellent in bending workability (R/t), the fraction of tempered martensite may be limited to a range of 30 to 70 vol%.
To improve the balance between tensile strength and elongation (TS × El) and the balance between tensile strength and hole expansion (TS) 2 ×HER 1/2 ) And a bending workability (R/t), and the microstructure preferably contains bainite as appropriate. Only when the bainite fraction is more than a certain level, the tensile strength of 22000 MPa% or more can be ensuredBalance between tensile strength and elongation (TS × El), 7 × 10 6 (MPa 21/2 ) The balance between tensile Strength and hole expansibility (TS) 2 ×HER 1/2 ) And a bending ratio (R/t) of 0.5 to 3.0. On the other hand, when the bainite fraction is too large, the tempered martensite fraction inevitably decreases, and therefore, the balance (TS × El) between the tensile strength and the elongation and the balance (TS) between the tensile strength and the hole expansion ratio, which are desired in the present invention, cannot be finally secured 2 ×HER 1/2 ) And a bending ratio (R/t). Therefore, in the present invention, the fraction of bainite may be limited to a range of 10 to 45 vol%.
Ferrite is an element contributing to improvement of ductility, and therefore, only when the fraction of ferrite is a certain level or more, the balance (TS × El) of tensile strength and elongation desired in the present invention can be ensured. However, when the fraction of ferrite is too large, the difference in hardness between phases increases, and the Hole Expansion Ratio (HER) may decrease, so that the balance (TS) between the tensile strength and the hole expansion ratio desired in the present invention cannot be secured 2 ×HER 1/2 ). Therefore, the fraction of ferrite in the present invention may be limited to the range of 3 to 20 vol%.
Hereinafter, an example of a method for manufacturing the steel sheet of the present invention will be described in detail.
A method of manufacturing a high-strength steel sheet according to one aspect of the present invention may include the steps of: preparing a slab having a predetermined composition, heating the slab, and hot rolling the slab; rolling the hot rolled steel plate; carrying out hot rolling annealing heat treatment on the coiled steel plate within the temperature range of 650-850 ℃ for 600-1700 seconds; cold rolling the hot-rolled annealed steel sheet; heating the cold-rolled steel sheet to a temperature range of Ac1 or more and less than Ac3 at an average temperature increase rate of 5 ℃/sec or more (primary heating), and holding for 50 seconds or more (primary holding); cooling to a temperature range of 100-300 ℃ at an average cooling rate of 1 ℃/sec or more (primary cooling); heating the primarily cooled steel plate to a temperature range of 300-500 ℃ (secondary heating), and keeping for more than 50 seconds (secondary keeping); and cooling to normal temperature (secondary cooling).
Preparation and heating of billets
A billet having a predetermined composition is prepared. Since the billet of the present invention has an alloy composition corresponding to the alloy composition of the steel sheet, the description of the alloy composition of the steel sheet is used instead of the description of the alloy composition of the billet.
The prepared billet can be heated to a certain temperature range, and the heating temperature of the billet can be in the range of 1000-1350 ℃. This is because hot rolling may be performed in a temperature range of not more than a desired finish hot rolling temperature range when the heating temperature of the slab is less than 1000 ℃, and the steel may melt by reaching the melting point of the steel when the heating temperature of the slab exceeds 1350 ℃.
Hot rolling and winding
The heated slab may be hot-rolled to provide a hot-rolled steel sheet. The finish hot rolling temperature during hot rolling is preferably in the range of 800-. This is because, when the finish hot rolling temperature is less than 800 ℃, an excessive rolling load may be a problem, and when the finish hot rolling temperature exceeds 1000 ℃, coarse crystal grains of the hot rolled steel sheet are formed, which may cause a reduction in physical properties of the final steel sheet.
The hot rolled steel sheet, which has completed the hot rolling, may be cooled at an average cooling rate of 10 deg.C/sec or more, and may be wound at a temperature of 300-600 deg.C. This is because, when the rolling temperature is less than 300 ℃, rolling is not easy, and when the rolling temperature exceeds 600 ℃, surface scale (scale) is formed to the inside of the hot rolled steel sheet, and thus pickling may be difficult.
Hot rolling annealing heat treatment
In order to facilitate pickling and cold rolling as subsequent processes after rolling, it is preferable to perform a hot rolling annealing heat treatment process. The hot-rolling annealing heat treatment can be carried out within the temperature range of 650-850 ℃ for 600-1700 seconds. When the hot-rolling annealing heat treatment temperature is less than 650 ℃ or the hot-rolling annealing heat treatment time is less than 600 seconds, the strength of the hot-rolling annealed steel sheet is high, and thus subsequent cold rolling may not be easily performed. On the other hand, when the hot-rolling annealing heat treatment temperature exceeds 850 ℃ or the hot-rolling annealing heat treatment time exceeds 1700 seconds, pickling may not be easily performed due to scale formed deep inside the steel sheet.
Pickling and cold rolling
After the hot-rolling annealing heat treatment, pickling may be performed and cold-rolling may be performed in order to remove scale formed on the surface of the steel sheet. In the present invention, the pickling and cold rolling conditions are not particularly limited, but it is preferable to perform cold rolling at a cumulative reduction of 30 to 90%. When the cumulative reduction of cold rolling exceeds 90%, it may be difficult to perform cold rolling in a short time due to high strength of the steel sheet.
The cold rolled steel sheet may be formed into an uncoated cold rolled steel sheet through an annealing heat treatment process, or may be formed into a coated steel sheet through a coating process in order to impart corrosion resistance. The plating may be performed by a plating method such as hot dip galvanizing, electrogalvanizing, or hot dip aluminizing, and the method and kind thereof are not particularly limited.
Annealing heat treatment
In the present invention, an annealing heat treatment process is performed in order to simultaneously secure the strength and workability of the steel sheet.
The cold-rolled steel sheet is heated to a temperature range of Ac1 or more and less than Ac3 (two-phase region) (primary heating), and is held in this temperature range for 50 seconds or more (primary holding). When the temperature at which the primary heating or the primary holding is performed is Ac3 or more (single phase region), a desired ferrite structure cannot be achieved, and thus a desired level of [ Si + Al ] cannot be achieved] F /[Si+Al] av And balance of tensile strength and hole expansion (TS) 2 ×HER 1/2 ). In addition, when the temperature at one time of heating or at one time of holding is in a temperature range lower than Ac1, sufficient heating cannot be performed, and the desired fine structure of the present invention may not be achieved even by the subsequent heat treatment. The average temperature increase rate in the first heating may be 5 ℃/sec or more.
When the primary holding time is less than 50 seconds, the structure may not be sufficiently homogenized, and thus the physical properties of the steel sheet may be degraded. The upper limit of the primary holding time is not particularly limited, but the primary heating time is preferably limited to 1200 seconds or less in order to prevent the toughness from being lowered due to coarsening of crystal grains.
At one timeAfter the holding, the cooling may be performed at a primary cooling rate of 1 ℃/sec or more as an average cooling rate to a primary cooling termination temperature (primary cooling) of 100 ℃ to 300 ℃. The upper limit of the primary cooling rate is not particularly limited, but is preferably set to 100 ℃/sec or less. When the primary cooling end temperature is less than 100 ℃, tempered martensite is excessively formed and the formation amount of residual austenite is insufficient, and thus [ Si + Al ] of the steel sheet may be reduced] F /[Si+Al] av Balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El), and bending workability (R/t). On the other hand, when the primary cooling end temperature exceeds 300 ℃, bainite is excessively formed and the formation amount of tempered martensite is insufficient, so that the balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El) and the balance of tensile strength and hole expansibility (TS) of the steel sheet may be lowered 2 ×HER 1/2 )。
After the primary cooling, the heating may be performed at a secondary heating rate of 5 ℃/sec or more as an average temperature rise rate to a secondary heating temperature of 300 ℃ to 500 ℃ (secondary heating), and the temperature may be maintained within this temperature range for 50 seconds or more (secondary maintenance). The upper limit of the secondary temperature increase rate is not particularly limited, but is preferably set to 100 ℃/sec or less. When the temperature of the secondary heating or the secondary holding is lower than 300 ℃ or the holding time is less than 50 seconds, tempered martensite is excessively formed, and the control of the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in the steel is insufficient, so that it is difficult to secure a desired fraction of residual austenite. As a result, the [ Si + Al ] of the steel sheet may be reduced] F /[Si+Al] av Balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El), and bending workability (R/t). On the other hand, when the temperature of the secondary heating or the secondary holding exceeds 500 ℃ or the secondary holding time exceeds 126000 seconds, the control of the contents of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) in the steel is insufficient, and thus it is difficult to secure the fraction of the retained austenite. As a result, the [ Si + Al ] of the steel sheet may be reduced] F /[Si+Al] av And the balance of tensile strength and elongation (TS × El).
After the secondary holding, cooling may be performed to normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 1 ℃/sec or more (secondary cooling).
In the high-strength steel sheet having excellent workability manufactured by the above manufacturing method, the microstructure may include tempered martensite, bainite, retained austenite, and ferrite, and as a preferred example, the microstructure may include 30 to 70% of tempered martensite, 10 to 45% of bainite, 10 to 40% of retained austenite, 3 to 20% of ferrite, and an unavoidable microstructure in terms of volume fraction.
In addition, in the high-strength steel sheet with excellent workability manufactured by the manufacturing method, the following [ relational expression 1]]The average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the ferrite ([ Si + Al)] F Weight percent) and the average total content of silicon (Si) and aluminum (Al) contained in the steel sheet ([ Si + Al)] av Weight%) of the above-mentioned components can satisfy the range of 1.02 to 1.45 represented by the following [ relational formula 2]]Balance of tensile Strength and elongation (B) T·E ) Can be 22000 (MPa%) or more, and is represented by the following relational expression 3]Balance of tensile Strength and hole expansion ratio (B) T·H ) Can be 7 x 10 6 (MPa 21/2 ) Above, is represented by the following [ relational expression 4]]Indicated bending ratio (B) R ) The range of 0.5 to 3.0 may be satisfied.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, a high-strength steel sheet excellent in workability according to one aspect of the present invention and a method for manufacturing the same will be described in more detail with reference to specific examples. It should be noted that the following examples are only for understanding the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The scope of the invention is to be determined by the content of the claims and the reasonable derivations thereof.
(examples)
Billets having a thickness of 100mm and having alloy compositions (the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities) described in table 1 below were produced, heated at 1200 ℃, and then finish hot rolled at 900 ℃. Thereafter, the steel sheet was cooled at an average cooling rate of 30 ℃/sec and wound at the winding temperatures of tables 2 and 3, thereby producing a hot-rolled steel sheet having a thickness of 3 mm. The hot rolled steel sheets were subjected to hot rolling annealing heat treatment according to the conditions of tables 2 and 3. Thereafter, pickling was performed to remove surface scale, and then cold rolling was performed to a thickness of 1.5 mm.
Thereafter, heat treatment was performed according to the annealing heat treatment conditions of tables 2 to 5, thereby manufacturing steel sheets.
The microstructure of the steel sheet manufactured as described above was observed, and the results are shown in tables 6 and 7. The cross section of the polished test piece was etched with a nital solution, and then ferrite (F), bainite (B), Tempered Martensite (TM), and pearlite (P) in the microstructure were observed by SEM. Among them, bainite and tempered martensite which are difficult to be distinguished are subjected to expansion evaluation, and then the fraction is calculated using an expansion curve.
