Definitions
- the present invention relates to an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having two plating layers and excellent in electropaintability and press-formability.
- An iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet has many advantages such as excellent corrosion resistance and electropaintability and a low manufacturing cost, so that the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet is widely used as a steel sheet for an automobile body. There is a strong demand for the improvement of electropaintability and press-formability of such an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet.
- a paint film is formed on the surface of an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet usually as follows: Subjecting the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet to a phosphating treatment to form a phosphate film on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy plating layer, and then subjecting same to a cation-type electropainting treatment to form a paint film having a prescribed thickness on the phosphate film.
- Japanese Patent Publication No. 58-15,554 dated March 26, 1983 discloses an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet for a cation-type electropainting, having two plating layers, which comprises: a steel sheet; an iron-zinc alloy plating layer as a lower layer formed on at least one surface of said steel sheet, the zinc content in said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer being over 40 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer; and an iron-zinc alloy plating layer as an upper layer formed on said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer, the zinc content in said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the upper layer being up to 40 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the upper layer (hereinafter referred to as the "prior art 1").
- the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet for an automobile body is subjected to a severe press-forming.
- the severe press-forming applied to the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet causes a powdery peeloff of the iron-zinc alloy plating layer, known as the "powdering” and a flaky peeloff of the iron-zinc alloy plating layer, known as the "flaking".
- Japanese Patent Provisional Publication No. 2-66,148 dated March 6, 1990 discloses an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having two plating layers and excellent in powdering resistance and flaking resistance, which comprises: a steel sheet; an iron-zinc alloy plating layer as a lower layer formed on at least one surface of said steel sheet, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer being up to 12 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer; and an iron-zinc alloy plating layer as an upper layer formed on said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the lower layer, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the upper layer being at least 50 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the upper layer, and the frictional coefficient of said iron-zinc alloy plating layer as the upper layer being up to 0.22 (hereinafter referred to as the "prior art 2").
- the prior arts 1 and 2 have the following problems: Application of a severe press-forming to the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the prior art 1 or 2 causes the production of cracks or peeloffs in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer and the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as the upper layer.
- An object of the present invention is therefore to provide an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having two plating layers, in which such defects as bubbles and pinholes do not occur in the paint film even when subjected to a severe press-forming, and which is excellent in electropaintability and press-formability.
- an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having two plating layers and excellent in electropaintability and press-formability which comprises: a steel sheet; an alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as a lower layer, formed on at least one surface of said steel sheet, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer being within a range of from 7 to 15 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer, and the plating weight of said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer being within a range of from 30 to 120 g/m2 per surface of said steel sheet; and an iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as an upper layer, formed on said alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy electro-plating layer as the upper layer being at least 60 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer;
- an iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having two plating layers and excellent in electopaintability and press-formability which comprises: a steel sheet; an alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as a lower layer, formed on at least one surface of said steel sheet, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer being within a range of from 7 to 15 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer, and the plating weight of said iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer being within a range of from 30 to 120 g/m2 per surface of said steel sheet; and an iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as an upper layer, formed on said alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer, the iron content in said iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as the upper layer being at least 60 wt.% relative to said iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer;
- the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as the upper layer which is formed through the electro-precipitation of metals, has a considerable inner stress therein.
- the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer has almost no inner stress therein. Consequently, the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as the upper layer locally and strongly restrains the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer.
- cracks or peeloffs tend to occur in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as the lower layer.
- bubbles are produced in the paint film resulting from the vaporization of crystal water released from the phosphate crystal grains of the phosphate film, as described above.
- the present invention was made on the basis of the above-mentioned findings.
- the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention having two plating layers and excellent in electropaintability and press-formability, is described below with reference to the drawings.
- Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic plan view illustrating a first embodiment of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention
- Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic vertical sectional view illustrating the first embodiment of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention.
- the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the first embodiment of the present invention comprises a steel sheet 1, an alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as a lower layer formed on at least one surface of the steel sheet 1, and an iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as an upper layer formed on the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer, and the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer has a plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a.
- the iron content in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer should be limited within a range of from 7 to 15 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2.
- the iron content in the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is under 7 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2, corrosion resistance of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 is degraded.
- the iron content in the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is over 15 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2, on the other hand, press-formability of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet is degraded.
- the plating weight of the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer should be limited within a range of from 30 to 120 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1.
- the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is under 30 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1, corrosion resistance of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 is degraded.
- the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is over 120 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet, on the other hand, press-formability of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet is degraded.
- the iron content in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer should be limited to at least 60 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3.
- the iron content in each of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a present in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer should be limited to under 60 wt.% relative to each of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a.
- the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer has the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a as described above.
- the structure of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer is therefore non-uniform. Consequently, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer is dispersed, and thus the restraining force acting on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is reduced. Even when a severe press-forming is applied to the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet having these two plating layers, therefore, cracks or peeloffs never occur in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer. As a result, bubbles are never produced in the paint film formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer.
- the total exposed area per unit area of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a present in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer should be limited within a range of from 5 to 50% of the unit area of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3.
- the total exposed area of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a is under 5% of the unit area of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 cannot be fully dispersed.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a present in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer should be limited within a range of from 1 to 100 »m.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a is under 1 »m, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 cannot be fully dispersed. It is therefore impossible to reduce the restraining force acting on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer, and thus to prevent the production of the cracks or the peeloffs in the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 during the press-forming.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a is over 100 »m, on the other hand, crater-shaped pinholes tend to occur in the paint film formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3.
- the total plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer and the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a should be limited within a range of from 1 to 10 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1. With a total plating weight of under 1 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1, crater-shaped pinholes tend to occur in the paint film formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer. With a total plating weight of over 10 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1, on the other hand, press-formability of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet is degraded.
- Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic plan view illustrating a second embodiment of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention
- Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic vertical sectional view illustrating the second embodiment of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention.
- the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the second embodiment of the present invention comprises a steel sheet 1, an alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as a lower layer formed on at least one surface of the steel sheet 1, and an iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as an upper layer formed on the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer, and the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer has a plurality of pores 4a.
- the iron content in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer should be limited within a range of from 7 to 15 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2, and the plating weight of the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer should be limited within a range of from 30 to 120 g/m2, under the same reasons just as those in the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the first embodiment of the present invention.
- the iron content in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer should be limited to at least 60 wt.% relative to the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4.
- the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer has the plurality of pores 4a as described above.
- the structure of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer is therefore non-uniform. Consequently, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer is dispersed, and thus the restraining force acting on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer is reduced.
- the total opening area per unit area of the plurality of pores 4a present in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer should be limited within a range of from 5 to 50% of the unit area of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4.
- the total opening area of the plurality of pores 4a is under 5% of the unit area of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 cannot be fully dispersed. It is therefore impossible to reduce the restraining force acting on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer, and thus to prevent the production of the cracks or the peeloffs in the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 during the press-forming.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of pores 4a present in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer should be limited within a range of from 1 to 100 »m.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of pores 4a is under 1 »m, the inner stress in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 cannot be fully dispersed. It it therefore impossible to reduce the restraining force acting on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer, and thus to prevent the production of the cracks or the peeloffs in the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 during the press-forming.
- the diameter of each of the plurality of pores 4a is over 100 »m, on the other hand, crater-shaped pinholes tend to occur in the paint film formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4.
- the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer should be limited within a range of from 1 to 10 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1.
- the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 is under 1 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1, crater-shaped pinholes tend to occur in the paint film formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 as the upper layer.
- the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 4 is over 10 g/m2 per surface of the steel sheet 1, on the other hand, press-formability of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet is degraded.
- the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the present invention having two plating layers and excellent in electropaintability and press-formability is manufactured as follows.
- a steel sheet is passed through a zinc dip-plating bath to apply a zinc dip-plating treatment to the steel sheet to form a zinc plating layer on at least one surface of the steel sheet. Then, the zinc plated steel sheet is heated to alloy the zinc plating layer and the surface portion of the steel sheet together to convert the zinc plating layer into an iron-zinc alloy plating layer.
- the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer as a lower layer is thus formed on at least one surface of the steel sheet.
- the heating of the zinc plated steel sheet for the alloying treatment is carried out at a temperature within a range of from 420 to 520°C, which is lower than the usual heating temperature for the alloying treatment.
- columnar crystal grains ( ⁇ -phase) are produced in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer, so that fine irregularities are formed on the surface of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer.
- the steel sheet on the surface of which the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer having these fine irregularities has been formed is subjected to a temper rolling to level the convexities of the surface of the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer.
- An alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer having fine concavities is thus formed as a lower layer on at least one surface of the steel sheet.
- the steel sheet on the surface of which the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer having fine concavities has been formed is electroplated with a prescribed electric current density in an acidic electroplating bath containing iron ions in a prescribed amount and zinc ions in a prescribed amount to form an iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer as an upper layer on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer having fine concavities as the lower layer.
- the iron-zinc alloy plated sheet of the first embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, having two plating layers which comprises the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer formed on at least one surface of the steel sheet 1, and the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 as the upper layer formed on the iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer and having the plurality of dots of another iron-zinc alloy 3a, or there is manufactured the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the second embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figs.
- Which of the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the first embodiment of the present invention and the iron-zinc alloy plated steel sheet of the second embodiment of the present invention is manufactured depends upon the plating electric current density applied when forming the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 or 4 as the upper layer on the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2 as the lower layer and the quantity of the columnar crystal grains produced in the alloying-treated iron-zinc alloy dip-plating layer 2.
- the iron content in the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 or 4 as the upper layer and the plating weight of the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 or 4 as the upper layer depend upon the chemical composition of the electroplating bath and the plating electric current density applied when forming the iron-zinc alloy electroplating layer 3 or 4.
