Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a steel strip with a high strength of at least 900 MPa and good formability.
  • the parameters relevant for the forming can be done with high informative value for the practice from the tensile test be won. Especially the elongation at break and the Set the n-value (measure of the hardening capacity) important metrics.
  • the n-value is characteristic of the deformability under a stretch drawing stress. This is the case for most sheet metal parts in a vehicle prevailing deformation mechanism.
  • the n value stands in relatively good agreement with the Yield strength ratio, which is also a practical one usable measure of the strengthening ability of a Represents material.
  • DE-A-3323255 describes a process for the production of high steel strip Strength and good cold formability.
  • the steel defined in DE-A-3323255 lies within the ranges defined in claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to develop steel strips, which has a high strength, paired with good Formability and high component strength.
  • the special economic importance of The inventive method consists in Production possibility as a hot strip in thicknesses below 2.0 mm, e.g. 1.5 mm.
  • the manufacturing process requires therefore not necessarily the complex manufacturing process cold strip production with the additional steps cold rolling and final annealing.
  • This material concept also includes the Possibility factory applied Surface finishing. For example, a electrolytically deposited zinc layer applied become. The enormous improvement in corrosion protection through a zinc layer can be a known fact be assumed. It is also known that ultra high strength steels for embrittlement by a Hydrogen absorption in the electrolytic Tending to galvanize. It could be shown that the steel strip according to the invention free of these dreaded galvanizing problems remains.
  • Carbon is required for structural hardening and for the formation of fine precipitates.
  • the content should be limited to 0.1 to 0.2%.
  • Silicon increases the hardness of the mixed crystal, which requires at least 0.3%. For reasons of weldability and to avoid unfavorable scale formation, the content should be limited to 0.6%.
  • Manganese at a content of at least 1.5% delays the conversion and causes the formation of hard conversion products. In order to avoid impermissibly strong micro segregations, the content should be max. Limit 2.0%.
  • Phosphorus can be used to further increase solid-solution strengthening, but should not exceed 0.08% for reasons of weldability.
  • Chromium promotes the formation of a bainite-rich final structure in at least 0.3%. In order not to delay the conversion too much, its content should be limited to max. Be limited to 0.80%.
  • Titanium or zirconium can be used to form fine precipitates with a hardening effect.
  • the effect clearly drops at levels above 0.2%.
  • the maximum value is therefore set at 0.2%.
  • Niobium can also be used for precipitation hardening. At least 0.04% should preferably be added. For reasons of effectiveness, the content is limited to max. 0.08% set.
  • Boron improves hardenability at levels in the range of 0.0005 to 0.005%. According to the current state of knowledge, it is used for this purpose in martensitic steel. It has surprisingly been found that boron in the present case also causes a significant increase in strength in the bainitic basic structure with only a slight reduction in formability.
  • the roller end temperature should be in the range of homogeneous Austenite and therefore not below 800 ° C to a sufficiently low deformation resistance guarantee and secondly deformation-induced Keep excretions low.
  • the cooling conditions should be chosen so that a Conversion to pearlite is avoided and the conversion largely in the bainite stage. Shares of Martensite can contribute to further solidification. Of further solidification by excretion of finest particles can be achieved.
  • This is a cooling of roll end temperature with a cooling rate of at least 30 ° C / s required. This cooling process is to finish at a temperature below 600 ° C by the Tape is wound on a reel and then in Coil cools down.
  • Table 1 shows the chemical compositions of the strip steels 1 and 2 and steel 3, a comparative martensitic steel, produced according to the invention.
  • Table 2 shows the characteristic mechanical properties of the strip steels 1 and 2 produced according to the invention and of the comparison steel 3, which was tempered to the values given in Table 2 by a subsequent heat treatment.
  • Strip steel produced according to the invention clearly. He points a higher elongation at break and a better one Yield strength ratio as a measure of the hardening.
  • Table 3 shows the influence of low reel temperature and a subsequent heat treatment on the properties of a strip steel produced according to the invention of the composition of steel 1 in Table 1.
  • Low reel temperatures of preferably 330 ° C can significantly increase the strength properties, see Example 4 in Table 3.
  • Another object of the invention is Achieving the beneficial effect of a subsequent one Heat treatment. It has surprisingly turned out to be found that the thermal treatment of the Steel strip produced according to the invention in the temperature range between 500 and 850 ° C the forming properties still can be further increased.
  • Examples 4, 5 and 6 in Table 3 show the effect such a heat treatment on the steel 1 with the Composition according to Table 1.
  • This property profile is useful for manufacturing of cold-formed parts with a high Energy absorption capacity (example 5a).
  • higher annealing temperatures can lead to high strengths extraordinarily low yield strength ratios or synonymous high consolidation with good Elongation values can be achieved (Examples 5b, 6a to 6c).
