  • the hot rolling end temperature was in the range of 830 - 900 ° C. Starting from this temperature, the hot strips were cooled to a lying above 560 ° C reel temperature and then coiled into coils.
  • the hot strips thus obtained are descaled after coiling and cold rolled after descaling at cold rolling degrees of 50% to cold strip.
  • a larger number of samples of these cold strips were then subjected to a heat treatment in which they were heated in a first annealing step at a heating rate of at least 1.9 ° C / s to a first annealing temperature in the range of 830-850 ° C was. At this temperature, the cold strips were held for a period of 120 seconds until fully warmed.
  • a quenching in which cold strips were quenched with a cooling rate of at least 8 ° C / s to a holding temperature T2, which was in the range of 350-420 ° C.
  • the holding temperatures T2 for a first batch of tests were 300 ° C, 310 ° C, 330 ° C, 340 ° C, 375 ° C, 390 ° C and 410 ° C.
  • the cold strip samples have been kept for an annealing period t2.
  • Fig. 1 the tensile strengths Rm achieved are plotted against the respective annealing temperature T2. It can be seen that the cold strip samples made of the steel S5 only achieved the required minimum tensile strength of 1400 MPa under certain annealing conditions, whereas the tensile strengths of the cold strip samples produced from the other steels always safely exceeded the minimum limit of 1400 MPa. The reason for this is the comparatively low carbon content of the steel S5, which is located at the lower limit of the content range prescribed according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 the tensile strengths of the cold strip samples produced from the steel S4 are plotted over the annealing time t2 of the second annealing stage. It turns out that the cold strip samples held at a holding temperature of 310 ° C., 330 ° C. and 350 ° C., ie in the holding temperature range of 310 ° to 350 ° C., have reached the required tensile strength Rm of 1400 MPa irrespective of the respective annealing time t 2.
  • Fig. 3 the tensile strengths of the cold strip samples produced from the steel S5 are plotted over the annealing time t2 of the second annealing stage. It can be seen here that the cold strip samples held at a holding temperature of 350 ° C. and 390 ° C., ie in the holding temperature range of 350 ° -390 ° C., reach the required tensile strength R m of 1400 MPa if the annealing time t 2 is shorter than 145 s.
  • Fig. 4 the strain A80 of the cold strip samples produced from the steel S4 is plotted over the annealing time t2 of the second annealing stage.
  • Fig. 5 the strain A80 of the cold strip samples produced from the steel S5 is plotted over the annealing time t2 of the second annealing stage.
  • the cold strip samples have the required elongation A80 of at least 5%, regardless of their respective holding temperature T2 and independently of the respective holding temperature Reach annealing time t2. Accordingly, while maintaining a short annealing time and suitably low holding temperatures T2, a cold-rolled steel flat product according to the invention can be produced from the steel S5 despite its comparatively low C content, in which a high tensile strength Rm is combined with a sufficient elongation A80.
  • Fig. 6 is shown in a section of an enlargement of a cross section of a cold strip according to the invention.
  • residual austenite blocks RA-b are marked and a point is highlighted by an encircling, on which film-like retained austenite RA-f is present in a lamellar layering.
