Definitions
- the invention relates to a steel flat product for hot forming consisting of a steel substrate composed of a steel containing 0.1-3 wt.% Mn and optionally up to 0.01 wt.% B and a protective coating applied to the steel substrate based on Al, which optionally contains a total of up to 20% by weight of other alloying elements.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing a flat steel product according to the invention.
- flat steel product includes all rolled products whose length is much greater than their thickness. This includes steel strips and sheets as well as blanks and blanks made from them.
- the invention relates to a steel component produced by hot forming.
- hot press hardening also known as hot forming
- steel blanks which are separated from cold- or hot-rolled steel strip, are heated to a deformation temperature that is generally above the austenitization temperature of the respective steel and placed in the heated state in the tool of a forming press.
- the sheet metal blank or the component formed from it experiences rapid cooling through contact with the cool tool.
- the cooling rates are set in such a way that a hardened structure results in the component.
- the structure is transformed into a martensitic structure.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing such a steel component.
- Typical steels suitable for hot press hardening are steels A-E, the chemical composition of which is listed in Table 2.
- MnB steel For hot-rolled MnB steel sheets provided with an Al coating, which are intended for the production of steel components by hot press form hardening, is in EP 0 971 044 B1 an alloy specification is given according to which, in addition to iron and unavoidable impurities (in % by weight), MnB steel has a carbon content of more than 0.20% but less than 0.5%, a manganese content of more than 0.5%, but less than 3%, a silicon content of More than 0.1% but less than 0.5% Chromium more than 0.01% but less than 1% Titanium less than 0.2% Aluminum less than 0.1% , a phosphorus content of less than 0.1%, a sulfur content of less than 0.05% and a boron content of more than 0.0005% but less than 0.08%.
- the Al coating is a so-called AISi coating, which consists of 9-10% by weight Si, 2-3.5% by weight iron and the remainder aluminum.
- the steel flat products thus obtained and coated are annealed at a heating temperature of more than 700 °C. During this annealing process, the protective coating melts and the protective coating is alloyed through. Here, iron diffuses from the steel substrate into the protective coating, so that phases are formed that have a higher temperature stability. The melted protective coating thus solidifies.
- a solidified, temperature-stable protective coating is a prerequisite for the subsequent forming step.
- the flat steel product is placed in a press-forming tool, hot-formed into the steel component and cooled so quickly that a hardened structure is created in the steel substrate of the flat steel product.
- the AISi coating described has the disadvantage that, in comparison to uncoated material, long annealing times are required for thorough alloying.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a hot-formed flat steel product that can be further processed in a shorter time.
- a steel flat product for hot forming which consists of a steel substrate consisting of a steel containing 0.1-3% by weight Mn and optionally up to 0.01% by weight B, and a Steel substrate applied protective coating based on Al.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components of the protective coating is optionally up to 10% in total.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mg as an additional alloy component is less than 2.50% Mg, preferably less than 1.50%, in particular the proportion is 0.10-0.50% Mg of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component in total more than 0.30% Mn, preferably more than 0.60% Mn, particularly preferably more than 0.80% Mn.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloy component is less than 1.80% Si, preferably less than 1.20% Si, preferably less than 0.80% Si, particularly preferably less than 0.60% Si.
- an iron-free mass fraction of an alloy component in the protective coating is understood to mean the fraction of the total mass of this alloy component in the total mass of all elements in the protective coating except iron.
- the protective coating thus comprises a proportion of up to 2.5% by weight magnesium, more than 0.30% by weight manganese and less than 1.80% by weight silicon based on the total mass of all elements except iron in the protective coating .
- Using the non-ferrous mass fraction to characterize the protective coating has the advantage that the numerical values do not change as a result of iron diffusing in from the steel substrate.
- Magnesium has proven to be an advantageous, additional alloying component, which can be easily alloyed into Al protective coatings of the type in question here.
- the amount of Mg added is adjusted in such a way that the total iron-free mass fraction of magnesium is less than 2.50%, in particular less than 1.50%.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of magnesium in the protective coating is preferably at least 0.10% and at most 0.50% Mg, with Mg contents of less than 0.50%, in particular less than 0.45% or up to 0.40% or up to 0.35%, have proven to be particularly favorable in practice.
- the small amounts of magnesium added to the Al coating are characterized by a higher affinity for oxygen than the main component, aluminum, of the protective coating. Even with the presence of such small amounts of magnesium, a thin oxide layer forms on the surface of the protective coating, covering the aluminum lying between it and the steel substrate. During the heating required for hot forming of the flat steel product, this thin layer prevents the aluminum from reacting with the moisture present in the atmosphere of the furnace used for heating the flat steel product.
- alloying magnesium reduces the amount of hydrogen entering the steel substrate. If a very high local concentration of hydrogen is reached, this weakens the bond at the grain boundaries of the steel substrate structure to such an extent that a crack occurs along the grain boundary during use as a result of the resulting stress.
- the layer thickness of the protective coating is typically in the range of 5-35 ⁇ m, in particular 10-25 ⁇ m.
- the faster alloying of the protective coating has several advantages.
- the duration of the hot forming process can be shortened, which makes the production process more efficient.
- energy savings can be achieved through the shortened annealing time.
- other furnaces can also be used for heating and keeping at the heating temperature.
- Roller hearth furnaces for example, are used for this process step.
- shorter roller hearth furnaces can be used because of the shortened annealing time.
- furnaces that were originally designed for the process security of uncoated material can be used.
- the nonferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is more than 1.00% Mn, in particular more than 1.30% Mn. It has been shown that from a non-ferrous mass fraction of 1.00% manganese, the annealing time is significantly reduced.
- a special design variant of the steel flat product is characterized in that the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is less than 1.80% manganese, preferably less than 1.60% manganese.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is less than 1.80% manganese, preferably less than 1.60% manganese.
- the melting point increases, making the protective coating more difficult to apply by hot dip coating.
- high manganese levels promote Slag formation in the melt and are therefore also disadvantageous.
- the exemplary embodiments shown with 1.60% manganese have the advantages according to the invention, they exhibited major slag problems, which made production difficult.
- the ironless mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloy component is less than 1.50% Si, in particular less than 1.00% Si, preferably less than 0.80% Si.
- melts with a silicon content well below 0.50% are technically difficult to implement, since contamination with silicon is difficult to avoid.
- the silicon content is therefore in particular more than 0.03%, preferably 0.05%, in particular 0.10%. With these silicon contents, the effect according to the invention still occurs significantly, but the coating process can be implemented much more cost-effectively, since it is not necessary to pay so much attention to silicon impurities.
- the Al-based protective coating can be applied to the flat steel product particularly economically by hot-dip coating, also known as "hot-dip aluminizing" in technical jargon.
- the object according to the invention is also achieved by a steel component produced by hot-press forming a flat steel product as described above.
- the steel component comprises in particular a steel substrate consisting of a steel containing 0.1-3% by weight Mn and optionally up to 0.01% by weight B, and a protective coating based on Al applied to the steel substrate.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components of the protective coating is optionally up to 10% in total.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mg as an additional alloy component is less than 2.5% Mg in total.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is more than 0.30% Mn in total.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloying component is less than 1.80% Si in total.
- the steel component has the same advantages that are explained above in relation to the flat steel product.
- preferred non-ferrous mass fractions of the various elements eg manganese, silicon and magnesium are mentioned. These preferred non-ferrous mass fractions with their advantages also apply to the steel component.
- Hot dip coating also called “hot-dip aluminizing" in technical jargon, is a particularly economical process for applying a protective coating.
- a melt consisting of aluminum with an optional admixture of up to 10% non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of magnesium as an additional alloy component in the melt is less than 2.50% magnesium in total.
- the non-ferrous mass fraction of manganese as an additional alloy component in the melt totals more than 0.30% manganese and the non-ferrous mass fraction of silicon as an additional alloy component in the melt totals less than 1.80% silicon.
- Hot-dip coating results in the protective coating being made up of an alloy layer which adjoins the steel substrate and a top layer which adjoins the alloy layer.
- the composition of the top layer essentially corresponds to the composition of the melt, whereas the alloy layer already contains an iron content of typically more than 30% by weight, since the steel substrate and the adjacent melt mix during the hot dipping process. Because the steel substrate essentially comprises iron, this mixing in the alloy layer does not change the iron-free mass fractions. The melt and the protective coating therefore have the same non-ferrous mass fractions of the alloying elements.
- the layer thickness of the protective coating is typically in the range of 5-35 ⁇ m, in particular 10-25 ⁇ m.
- preferred non-ferrous mass fractions of the various elements e.g. manganese, silicon and magnesium
- These preferred non-ferrous mass fractions and their advantages also apply to the process for producing the flat steel product and in particular to the composition of the melt if production is carried out by means of hot-dip coating.
- the steel flat product is pre-alloyed immediately after coating by being kept at a pre-alloying temperature of 500°C-600°C for a pre-alloying time of 15-30 seconds.
- pre-alloying temperature 500°C-600°C for a pre-alloying time of 15-30 seconds.
- intermediately is to be understood as meaning that the flat steel product does not cool after coating until the protective coating has completely solidified. In practice, depending on the design of the coating system, there can be up to 10 seconds between coating and pre-alloying.
- the pre-alloying step leads to increased diffusion, so that iron is already diffusing from the substrate into the protective coating and increased iron-containing phases are beginning to form there.
- the subsequent annealing process for the through-alloying can be further shortened.
- the manganese content alone shortens the annealing time in the annealing process (see below).
- the master alloy enables this annealing time to be shortened even further.
- the annealing of the steel flat product in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t defined by a polygon ABCD is to be understood within the meaning of this application that the value pair of temperature T and annealing time t is within the polygon formed by the points ABCD becomes.
- the points AH shown have the following pairs of values: designation Temperature [°C] Glow time t [minutes] A 930 1.5 B 930 7 C 880 12 D 880 2.5 E 940 2.5 f 940 9 G 900 13 H 900 4
- Thickness d [mm] Temperature [°C] Glow time [minutes] 0.7-0.9 910-930 1.5-5 0.7-0.9 880-900 2:5-7 1-1.4 910-930 1:8-6 1-1.4 880-900 3-8.5 1.5-1.8 910-930 2:5-7 1.5-1.8 880-900 3.5-10 1:9-2:4 910-930 3.5-10 1:9-2:4 880-900 4-11 2.5-3.5 910-930 4-11 2.5-3.5 880-900 4:5-12
- the addition of manganese while simultaneously limiting the silicon content accelerates the diffusion process of the iron from the steel substrate into the protective coating, ie the time for full alloying is shortened. Therefore, the annealing time compared to a standard process, such as that in EP2086755 is described, can be significantly shortened.
- the so-called Fe seam forms in the protective coating.
- This is a high ferrous phase in the protective coating at the interface with the steel substrate.
- the thickness of the Fe seam is a measure of the degree of alloying penetration of the protective coating.
- the thickness of the Fe seam after a certain annealing time is therefore a measure of the alloying penetration rate of the coating.
- the method is developed in such a way that when the steel flat product is annealed in a furnace that has been preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t defined by the polygon ABCD figure 11 for flat steel products with a thickness between 0.7mm and 1.5mm or in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t defined by the polygon EFGH figure 11 for flat steel products with a thickness between 1.5 mm and 3.0 mm, an Fe seam results with a thickness greater than 2.5 ⁇ m, in particular greater than 8 ⁇ m, preferably greater than 10 ⁇ m.
- the thickness of the Fe-seam is adjusted according to the other requirements.
- a sufficiently thick Fe seam ensures that no liquid phases (e.g.
- liquid aluminium occur in the protective coating during hot forming.
- the more rapid alloying causes the surface of the steel flat product to discolour. While the steel flat product shows a shiny, metallic surface before annealing, the surface of the steel flat product is dark and dull after the protective coating has been thoroughly alloyed. The faster the protective coating alloys through, the faster the surface discolours. The dark, matt surface means that the heat coupling is significantly improved. The necessary core temperature for hot forming is therefore also reached more quickly. This results in a self-reinforcing effect of the manganese content according to the invention.
- the alloying time of the protective coating is reduced.
- the faster alloying leads to an increased heating rate in the steel substrate and thus to a faster annealing process.
- the heating temperature is so high that the flat steel product has a hot forming temperature at the start of forming at which the structure of the steel substrate is completely or partially converted into an austenitic structure, and that the flat steel product is quenched after forming or in the course of forming is so that hardened structure is formed in the structure of the steel substrate of the steel flat product.
- the heating temperature is at least 700°C, in particular 880°C to 950°C.
- the steel substrate is of a steel containing 0.1-3 wt% Mn and optionally up to 0.01 wt% B.
- the microstructure of the steel is martensitic by hot working or partially martensitic structure convertible.
- the microstructure of the steel substrate of the steel component is therefore preferably a martensitic or at least partially martensitic microstructure, since this has a particularly high degree of hardness.
- the steel substrate is particularly preferably a steel which, in addition to iron and unavoidable impurities (in % by weight), consists of C: 0.04 - 0.45% by weight, Si: 0.02 - 1.2% by weight, Mn: 0.5 - 2.6% by weight, Al: 0.02 - 1.0% by weight, P: ⁇ 0.05% by weight, S: ⁇ 0.02% by weight, N: ⁇ 0.02% by weight, Sn: ⁇ 0.03% by weight As: ⁇ 0.01% by weight Approx: ⁇ 0.005% by weight and optionally one or more of the elements "Cr, B, Mo, Ni, Cu, Nb, Ti, V" in the following contents CR: 0.08-1.0% by weight, B: 0.001 - 0.005% by weight Mon: ⁇ 0.5% by weight Ni: ⁇ 0.5% by weight Cu: ⁇ 0.2% by weight Nb: 0.02 - 0.08% by weight, Ti: 0.01 - 0.08% by weight V: ⁇ 0.1% by weight consists.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Stahlflachprodukt für die Warmformung, das aus einem Stahlsubstrat, das aus einem Stahl, der 0,1-3 Gew.-% Mn und optional bis zu 0,01 Gew.-% B, und einem auf das Stahlsubstrat aufgetragenen Schutzüberzug auf Basis von Al besteht, der optional in Summe bis zu 20 Gew.-% an anderen Legierungselementen enthält.The invention relates to a steel flat product for hot forming consisting of a steel substrate composed of a steel containing 0.1-3 wt.% Mn and optionally up to 0.01 wt.% B and a protective coating applied to the steel substrate based on Al, which optionally contains a total of up to 20% by weight of other alloying elements.
Ebenso betrifft die Erfindung ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines erfindungsgemäßen Stahlflachprodukts. Unter den Begriff "Stahlflachprodukt" fallen hier alle Walzprodukte, deren Länge sehr viel größer ist als ihre Dicke. Hierzu zählen Stahlbänder und -bleche sowie daraus gewonnene Zuschnitte und Platinen.The invention also relates to a method for producing a flat steel product according to the invention. The term "flat steel product" includes all rolled products whose length is much greater than their thickness. This includes steel strips and sheets as well as blanks and blanks made from them.
Des Weiteren betrifft die Erfindung ein Stahlbauteil, hergestellt durch Warmumformen.Furthermore, the invention relates to a steel component produced by hot forming.
Beim Warmpresshärten, auch Warmumformen genannt, werden Stahlplatinen, die von kalt-oder warmgewalztem Stahlband abgeteilt sind, auf eine in der Regel oberhalb der Austenitisierungstemperatur des jeweiligen Stahls liegende Verformungstemperatur erwärmt und im erwärmten Zustand in das Werkzeug einer Umformpresse gelegt. Im Zuge der anschließend durchgeführten Umformung erfährt der Blechzuschnitt bzw. das aus ihm geformte Bauteil durch den Kontakt mit dem kühlen Werkzeug eine schnelle Abkühlung. Die Abkühlraten sind dabei so eingestellt, dass sich im Bauteil ein Härtegefüge ergibt. Das Gefüge wird in ein martensitisches Gefüge umgewandelt.During hot press hardening, also known as hot forming, steel blanks, which are separated from cold- or hot-rolled steel strip, are heated to a deformation temperature that is generally above the austenitization temperature of the respective steel and placed in the heated state in the tool of a forming press. In the course of the subsequent forming, the sheet metal blank or the component formed from it experiences rapid cooling through contact with the cool tool. The cooling rates are set in such a way that a hardened structure results in the component. The structure is transformed into a martensitic structure.
Schließlich betrifft die Erfindung auch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines derartigen Stahlbauteils.Finally, the invention also relates to a method for producing such a steel component.
Typische Stähle, die für das Warmpresshärten geeignet sind, sind die Stähle A-E, deren chemische Zusammensetzung in der Tabelle 2 aufgelistet ist.Typical steels suitable for hot press hardening are steels A-E, the chemical composition of which is listed in Table 2.
Für warmgewalzte und mit einer Al-Beschichtung versehene MnB-Stahlbleche, die zum Herstellen von Stahlbauteilen durch Warmpressformhärten bestimmt sind, ist in der
Die beschriebene AISi-Beschichtung hat den Nachteil, dass im Vergleich zu unbeschichtetem Material lange Glühzeiten für die Durchlegierung erforderlich sind.The AISi coating described has the disadvantage that, in comparison to uncoated material, long annealing times are required for thorough alloying.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher ein Stahlflachprodukt eine Warmumformung bereitzustellen, dass in kürzerer Zeit weiterverarbeitet werden kann.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a hot-formed flat steel product that can be further processed in a shorter time.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Stahlflachprodukt für eine Warmformung, das aus einem Stahlsubstrat, das aus einem Stahl, der 0,1 - 3 Gew.-% Mn und optional bis zu 0,01 Gew.-% B aufweist, und einem auf das Stahlsubstrat aufgetragenen Schutzüberzug auf Basis von Al besteht. Dabei beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil an zusätzlichen Legierungsbestandteilen des Schutzüberzugs optional in Summe bis zu 10 %. Hierbei beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mg als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 2,50 % Mg, bevorzugt weniger als 1,50%, insbesondere liegt der Anteil bei 0,10 - 0,50 % Mg. Weiterhin beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mn als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe mehr als 0,30 % Mn, bevorzugt mehr als 0,60% Mn, besonders bevorzugt mehr als 0,80% Mn. Zudem beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Si als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 1,80 % Si , bevorzugt weniger als 1,20 % Si, bevorzugt weniger als 0,80 % Si, besonders bevorzugt weniger als 0,60 % Si.This object is achieved by a steel flat product for hot forming, which consists of a steel substrate consisting of a steel containing 0.1-3% by weight Mn and optionally up to 0.01% by weight B, and a Steel substrate applied protective coating based on Al. The non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components of the protective coating is optionally up to 10% in total. The non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mg as an additional alloy component is less than 2.50% Mg, preferably less than 1.50%, in particular the proportion is 0.10-0.50% Mg of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component in total more than 0.30% Mn, preferably more than 0.60% Mn, particularly preferably more than 0.80% Mn. In addition, the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloy component is less than 1.80% Si, preferably less than 1.20% Si, preferably less than 0.80% Si, particularly preferably less than 0.60% Si.
Unter einem eisenlosen Massenanteil eines Legierungsbestandteils im Schutzüberzug wird im Sinne dieser Anmeldung der Anteil der Gesamtmasse dieses Legierungsbestandteils an der Gesamtmasse aller Elemente im Schutzüberzug außer Eisen verstanden. Der Schutzüberzug umfasst also einen Anteil von bis zu 2,5 Gew.-% Magnesium, mehr als 0,30% Gew.-% Mangan und weniger als 1,80 Gew.-% Silizium bezogen auf die Gesamtmasse aller Elemente außer Eisen im Schutzüberzug. Die Verwendung des eisenlosen Massenanteils zu Charakterisierung des Schutzüberzuges hat den Vorteil, dass sich die Zahlenwerte nicht durch Eindiffundieren von Eisen aus dem Stahlsubstrat verändern.Within the meaning of this application, an iron-free mass fraction of an alloy component in the protective coating is understood to mean the fraction of the total mass of this alloy component in the total mass of all elements in the protective coating except iron. The protective coating thus comprises a proportion of up to 2.5% by weight magnesium, more than 0.30% by weight manganese and less than 1.80% by weight silicon based on the total mass of all elements except iron in the protective coating . Using the non-ferrous mass fraction to characterize the protective coating has the advantage that the numerical values do not change as a result of iron diffusing in from the steel substrate.
Es hat sich gezeigt, dass durch die Zulegierung von Mangan eine schnellere Durchlegierung und damit eine Verkürzung der Glühzeit erreicht werden kann. Überraschenderweise tritt dieser Effekt nur bei geringen Siliziumgehalten des Schutzüberzugs auf. Mit steigendem Siliziumgehalten nimmt der Effekt ab. Bereits ab einen eisenlosen Massenanteil von 2,00 % Silizium ist der Effekt nicht mehr beobachtbar.It has been shown that the addition of manganese can lead to faster alloying and thus a reduction in the annealing time. Surprisingly, this effect only occurs if the protective coating has a low silicon content. The effect decreases with increasing silicon content. The effect is no longer observable from an ironless mass fraction of 2.00% silicon.
Als vorteilhafter, zusätzlicher Legierungsbestandteil hat sich Magnesium erwiesen, das sich gut in Al-Schutzüberzüge der hier in Rede stehenden Art einlegieren lässt. Die zugegebene Menge an Mg wird so eingestellt, dass der eisenlose Massenanteil von Magnesium in Summe weniger als 2,50 %, insbesondere weniger als 1,50% beträgt.Magnesium has proven to be an advantageous, additional alloying component, which can be easily alloyed into Al protective coatings of the type in question here. The amount of Mg added is adjusted in such a way that the total iron-free mass fraction of magnesium is less than 2.50%, in particular less than 1.50%.
Bevorzugt beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil von Magnesium im Schutzüberzug mindestens 0,10% und höchstens 0,50 % Mg, wobei Mg-Gehalte von weniger als 0,50%, insbesondere weniger als 0,45 % oder bis 0,40 % bzw. bis 0,35 %, sich in der Praxis als besonders günstig erwiesen haben. Das in geringen Mengen dem Al-Überzug beigegebenen Magnesium zeichnet sich durch eine höhere Sauerstoffaffinität aus als der Hauptbestandteil Aluminium des Schutzüberzugs. Bereits bei Anwesenheit von derart geringen Mengen Magnesiums entsteht auf der Oberfläche des Schutzüberzugs eine dünne Oxidschicht, die das zwischen ihr und dem Stahlsubstrat liegende Aluminium abdeckt. Diese dünne Schicht behindert bei der für die Warmumformung des Stahlflachprodukts erforderlichen Erwärmung eine Reaktion des Aluminiums mit der Feuchtigkeit, die in der Atmosphäre des für die Erwärmung des Stahlflachprodukts verwendeten Ofens vorhanden ist. Eine Oxidation des Aluminiums des Überzugs und eine damit einhergehende Freisetzung von Wasserstoff, der in den Überzug und das Stahlsubstrat des Stahlflachprodukts eindiffundieren könnte, werden so effektiv verhindert. Dies gilt überraschenderweise insbesondere auch dann, wenn der Al-basierte Überzug in Folge der Erwärmung lokal schmelzflüssig wird und seine Oberfläche aufreißt, so dass schmelzflüssiges Überzugsmaterial mit der Ofenatmosphäre in Kontakt kommt. Insbesondere bei längeren Glühdauern zeigt sich bei erfindungsgemäßen Stahlflachprodukten eine gegenüber konventionell mit einer Al-Beschichtung versehenen Stahlflachprodukten geringere Wasserstoffkonzentration im aus dem Stahlflachprodukt warmgeformten Bauteil.The non-ferrous mass fraction of magnesium in the protective coating is preferably at least 0.10% and at most 0.50% Mg, with Mg contents of less than 0.50%, in particular less than 0.45% or up to 0.40% or up to 0.35%, have proven to be particularly favorable in practice. The small amounts of magnesium added to the Al coating are characterized by a higher affinity for oxygen than the main component, aluminum, of the protective coating. Even with the presence of such small amounts of magnesium, a thin oxide layer forms on the surface of the protective coating, covering the aluminum lying between it and the steel substrate. During the heating required for hot forming of the flat steel product, this thin layer prevents the aluminum from reacting with the moisture present in the atmosphere of the furnace used for heating the flat steel product. This effectively prevents oxidation of the aluminum in the coating and the associated release of hydrogen, which could diffuse into the coating and the steel substrate of the flat steel product. Surprisingly, this also applies in particular when the Al-based coating becomes locally molten as a result of heating and its surface cracks, so that molten coating material comes into contact with the furnace atmosphere. In the case of longer annealing times in particular, the hydrogen concentration in the component hot-formed from the flat steel product is lower in the case of flat steel products according to the invention than in flat steel products conventionally provided with an Al coating.
Das Zulegieren von Magnesium hat den Vorteil, dass hierdurch der Wasserstoffeintrag in das Stahlsubstrat reduziert wird. Wird eine lokal sehr hohe Wasserstoffkonzentration erreicht, schwächt dies die Bindung an den Korngrenzen des Stahlsubstratgefüges soweit, dass es im Gebrauch infolge der dabei auftretenden Spannung zu einem Riss entlang der Korngrenze kommt.The advantage of alloying magnesium is that it reduces the amount of hydrogen entering the steel substrate. If a very high local concentration of hydrogen is reached, this weakens the bond at the grain boundaries of the steel substrate structure to such an extent that a crack occurs along the grain boundary during use as a result of the resulting stress.
Die Schichtdicke des Schutzüberzugs liegt typischerweise im Bereich von 5 - 35 µm, insbesondere 10 - 25 µm.The layer thickness of the protective coating is typically in the range of 5-35 μm, in particular 10-25 μm.
Die schnellere Durchlegierung des Schutzüberzugs hat mehrere Vorteile. Zum einen kann die Prozessdauer des Warmumformprozesses verkürzt werden, was den Produktionsprozess effizienter macht. Zudem kann durch die verkürzte Glühzeit eine Energieersparnis erreicht werden. Im Übrigen können auch andere Öfen für die Erwärmung und das Halten auf der Erwärmungstemperatur eingesetzt werden. Für diesen Prozessschritt werden beispielsweise Rollenherdöfen verwendet. Beim Einsatz des erfindungsgemäßen Stahlflachproduktes können aufgrund der verkürzten Glühzeit kürzere Rollenherdöfen verwendet werden. Insbesondere kann auf Öfen zurückgegriffen werden, die ursprünglich für die Prozesssicherung von unbeschichtetem Material konzipiert wurden.The faster alloying of the protective coating has several advantages. On the one hand, the duration of the hot forming process can be shortened, which makes the production process more efficient. In addition, energy savings can be achieved through the shortened annealing time. Incidentally, other furnaces can also be used for heating and keeping at the heating temperature. Roller hearth furnaces, for example, are used for this process step. When using the flat steel product according to the invention, shorter roller hearth furnaces can be used because of the shortened annealing time. In particular, furnaces that were originally designed for the process security of uncoated material can be used.
Bei einer weiterentwickelten Ausführungsform des Stahlflachproduktes beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mn als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe mehr als 1,00% Mn, insbesondere mehr als 1,30% Mn. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass sich ab einem eisenlosen Massenanteil von 1,00 % Mangan eine nochmals deutlich verkürzte Glühzeit ergibt.In a further developed embodiment of the flat steel product, the nonferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is more than 1.00% Mn, in particular more than 1.30% Mn. It has been shown that from a non-ferrous mass fraction of 1.00% manganese, the annealing time is significantly reduced.
Eine spezielle Ausführungsvariante des Stahlflachproduktes kennzeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mn als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 1,80 % Mangan, bevorzugt weniger als 1,60% Mangan beträgt. Mit steigendem Mn-Gehalt erhöht sich der Schmelzpunkt, so dass der Schutzüberzug schwieriger durch Schmelztauchbeschichten aufgebracht werden kann. Zudem fördern hohe Mangangehalte die Schlackebildung in der Schmelze und sind daher ebenfalls nachteilig. Die gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiele mit 1,60% Mangan haben zwar die erfindungsgemäßen Vorteile, zeigten jedoch große Schlackeprobleme, was die Produktion erschwert.A special design variant of the steel flat product is characterized in that the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is less than 1.80% manganese, preferably less than 1.60% manganese. As the Mn content increases, the melting point increases, making the protective coating more difficult to apply by hot dip coating. In addition, high manganese levels promote Slag formation in the melt and are therefore also disadvantageous. Although the exemplary embodiments shown with 1.60% manganese have the advantages according to the invention, they exhibited major slag problems, which made production difficult.
Bei einer weiterentwickelten Ausführungsform des Stahlflachproduktes beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Si als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe bei weniger als 1,50% Si, insbesondere weniger 1,00% Si, bevorzugt weniger als 0,80 % Si. Je geringer der Siliziumgehalt ist, desto stärker wirkt sich der Mangangehalt auf die Durchlegierungszeit aus. Daher ist der Siliziumgehalt bevorzugt sehr niedrig. Schmelzen mit einem Siliziumgehalt deutlich unterhalb von 0,50 % sind allerdings technisch schwierig zu realisieren, da sich Verunreinigungen mit Silizium nur schwer vermeiden lassen. Um eine effiziente Produktion zu gewährleisten, beträgt der Siliziumgehalt daher insbesondere mehr als 0,03%, bevorzugt 0,05%, insbesondere 0,10%. Bei diesen Siliziumgehalten tritt der erfindungsgemäße Effekt immer noch signifikant ein, allerdings kann der Beschichtungsprozess wesentlich kostengünstiger realisiert werden, da nicht so stark auf Siliziumverunreinigungen geachtet werden muss.In a further developed embodiment of the flat steel product, the ironless mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloy component is less than 1.50% Si, in particular less than 1.00% Si, preferably less than 0.80% Si. The lower the silicon content, the more the manganese content affects the alloying time. Therefore, the silicon content is preferably very low. However, melts with a silicon content well below 0.50% are technically difficult to implement, since contamination with silicon is difficult to avoid. In order to ensure efficient production, the silicon content is therefore in particular more than 0.03%, preferably 0.05%, in particular 0.10%. With these silicon contents, the effect according to the invention still occurs significantly, but the coating process can be implemented much more cost-effectively, since it is not necessary to pay so much attention to silicon impurities.
Der Al-basierte Schutzüberzug kann besonders wirtschaftlich durch Schmelztauchbeschichten, in der Fachsprache auch "Feueraluminieren" genannt, auf das Stahlflachprodukt aufgebracht werden.The Al-based protective coating can be applied to the flat steel product particularly economically by hot-dip coating, also known as "hot-dip aluminizing" in technical jargon.
Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird ebenfalls gelöst durch ein Stahlbauteil, hergestellt durch Warmpressformen eines vorbeschriebenen Stahlflachprodukts.
Das Stahlbauteil umfasst dabei insbesondere ein Stahlsubstrat, das aus einem Stahl, der 0,1 - 3 Gew.-% Mn und optional bis zu 0,01 Gew.-% B aufweist, und einem auf das Stahlsubstrat aufgetragenen Schutzüberzug auf Basis von Al. Dabei beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil an zusätzlichen Legierungsbestandteilen des Schutzüberzugs optional in Summe bis zu 10 %. Hierbei beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mg als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 2,5 % Mg. Weiterhin beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mn als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe mehr als 0,30 % Mn. Zudem beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Si als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 1,80 % Si. Das Stahlbauteil hat dabei die gleichen Vorteile, die vorstehend in Bezug auf das Stahlflachprodukt erläutert sind. Ebenso sind mit Bezug auf das Stahlflachprodukt bevorzugte eisenlose Massenanteile der verschiedenen Elemente (z.B. von Mangan, Silizium und Magnesium) genannt. Diese bevorzugten eisenlosen Massenanteile mit Ihren Vorteilen gelten ebenso für das Stahlbauteil.The object according to the invention is also achieved by a steel component produced by hot-press forming a flat steel product as described above.
The steel component comprises in particular a steel substrate consisting of a steel containing 0.1-3% by weight Mn and optionally up to 0.01% by weight B, and a protective coating based on Al applied to the steel substrate. The non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components of the protective coating is optionally up to 10% in total. The non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mg as an additional alloy component is less than 2.5% Mg in total. Furthermore, the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloy component is more than 0.30% Mn in total. In addition, the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloying component is less than 1.80% Si in total. The steel component has the same advantages that are explained above in relation to the flat steel product. Likewise, with reference to the steel flat product, preferred non-ferrous mass fractions of the various elements (eg manganese, silicon and magnesium) are mentioned. These preferred non-ferrous mass fractions with their advantages also apply to the steel component.
Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird ebenfalls gelöst durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellen eines vorbeschriebenen Stahlflachprodukts umfassend folgende Arbeitsschritte:
- Bereitstellen eines Stahlsubstrats aus einem Stahl, der 0,1 - 3 Gew. % Mn und optional bis zu 0,01 Gew.-% B aufweist;
- Beschichten des Stahlsubstrats mit einem Schutzüberzug auf Basis von Al, , der optional in Summe einen eisenlosen Massenanteil von bis zu 10 % an zusätzlichen Legierungsbestandteilen aufweist, wobei der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mg als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 2,50 % Mg beträgt und wobei der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Mn als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe mehr als 0,30 % Mn beträgt und der eisenlose Massenanteil des Schutzüberzugs von Si als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in Summe weniger als 1,80 % Si beträgt.
- providing a steel substrate of a steel comprising 0.1-3 wt% Mn and optionally up to 0.01 wt% B;
- Coating of the steel substrate with a protective coating based on Al, which optionally has a non-ferrous mass fraction of up to 10% of additional alloy components in total, with the non-ferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mg as an additional alloy component totaling less than 2.50% Mg and wherein the nonferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Mn as an additional alloying component is more than 0.30% Mn in total and the nonferrous mass fraction of the protective coating of Si as an additional alloying component is less than 1.80% Si in total.
Insbesondere wird bei diesem Verfahren der Schutzüberzug durch Schmelztauchbeschichten auf das Stahlsubstrat aufgebracht wird. Schmelztauchbeschichten, in der Fachsprache auch "Feueraluminieren" genannt, ist ein besonders wirtschaftliches Verfahren zur Aufbringung eines Schutzüberzugs.In particular, in this process the protective coating is applied to the steel substrate by hot dip coating. Hot dip coating, also called "hot-dip aluminizing" in technical jargon, is a particularly economical process for applying a protective coating.
Beim Schmelztauchbeschichten wird eine Schmelze verwendet, die aus Aluminium, das eine optionale Beimischung mit einem einen eisenlosen Massenanteil von bis zu 10 % an zusätzlichen Legierungsbestandteilen aufweist. Dabei beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil von Magnesium als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in der Schmelze in Summe weniger als 2,50 % Magnesium. Weiterhin beträgt der eisenlose Massenanteil von Mangan als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in der Schmelze in Summe mehr als 0,30 % Mangan und der eisenlose Massenanteil von Silizium als zusätzlichem Legierungsbestandteil in der Schmelze in Summe weniger 1,80 % Silizium. Durch das Schmelztauchbeschichten ergibt sich ein Aufbau des Schutzüberzuges aus einer Legierungsschicht, die an das Stahlsubstrat angrenzt und einer Deckschicht, die an die Legierungsschicht angrenzt. Dabei entspricht die Zusammensetzung der Deckschicht im Wesentlichen der Zusammensetzung der Schmelze, wohingegen die Legierungsschicht bereits einen Eisenanteil von typischerweise mehr als 30 Gew.-% enthält, da es während des Schmelztauchvorgangs zu einer Vermischung zwischen Stahlsubstrat und der angrenzenden Schmelze kommt. Da das Stahlsubstrat im Wesentlichen Eisen umfasst, ändern diese Durchmischung in der Legierungsschicht die eisenlosen Massenanteile nicht. Schmelze und Schutzüberzug haben also die gleichen eisenlosen Massenanteile der Legierungselemente.In the case of hot-dip coating, a melt is used consisting of aluminum with an optional admixture of up to 10% non-ferrous mass fraction of additional alloy components. The non-ferrous mass fraction of magnesium as an additional alloy component in the melt is less than 2.50% magnesium in total. Furthermore, the non-ferrous mass fraction of manganese as an additional alloy component in the melt totals more than 0.30% manganese and the non-ferrous mass fraction of silicon as an additional alloy component in the melt totals less than 1.80% silicon. Hot-dip coating results in the protective coating being made up of an alloy layer which adjoins the steel substrate and a top layer which adjoins the alloy layer. The composition of the top layer essentially corresponds to the composition of the melt, whereas the alloy layer already contains an iron content of typically more than 30% by weight, since the steel substrate and the adjacent melt mix during the hot dipping process. Because the steel substrate essentially comprises iron, this mixing in the alloy layer does not change the iron-free mass fractions. The melt and the protective coating therefore have the same non-ferrous mass fractions of the alloying elements.
Die Schichtdicke des Schutzüberzugs liegt typischerweise im Bereich von 5 - 35 µm, insbesondere 10 - 25 µm.The layer thickness of the protective coating is typically in the range of 5-35 μm, in particular 10-25 μm.
Mit Bezug auf das Stahlflachprodukt sind vorstehend bevorzugte eisenlose Massenanteile der verschiedenen Elemente (z.B. von Mangan, Silizium und Magnesium) genannt. Diese bevorzugten eisenlosen Massenanteile mit Ihren Vorteilen gelten ebenso für das Verfahren zur Herstellung des Stahlflachproduktes und insbesondere für die Zusammensetzung der Schmelze für den Fall, dass die Herstellung mittels Schmelztauchbeschichten erfolgt.With regard to the steel flat product, preferred non-ferrous mass fractions of the various elements (e.g. manganese, silicon and magnesium) are mentioned above. These preferred non-ferrous mass fractions and their advantages also apply to the process for producing the flat steel product and in particular to the composition of the melt if production is carried out by means of hot-dip coating.
In einer weiteren Variante des Verfahrens wird das Stahlflachprodukt unmittelbar nach dem Beschichten vorlegiert, indem es für eine Vorlegierungszeit von 15 - 30 Sekunden auf einer Vorlegierungstemperatur von 500 °C-600°C gehalten wird. Unter "unmittelbar" ist im Sinne dieser Anmeldung zu verstehen, dass das Stahlflachprodukt nicht nach dem Beschichten bis zu einem vollständigen Erstarren des Schutzüberzuges abkühlt. In der Praxis können je nach Ausgestaltung der Beschichtungsanlage bis zu 10 Sekunden zwischen dem Beschichten und dem Vorlegieren liegen.In a further variant of the method, the steel flat product is pre-alloyed immediately after coating by being kept at a pre-alloying temperature of 500°C-600°C for a pre-alloying time of 15-30 seconds. In the context of this application, "immediately" is to be understood as meaning that the flat steel product does not cool after coating until the protective coating has completely solidified. In practice, depending on the design of the coating system, there can be up to 10 seconds between coating and pre-alloying.
Durch den Vorlegierungsschritt kommt es zu einer verstärkten Diffusion, so dass bereits Eisen aus dem Substrat in den Schutzüberzug diffundiert und sich dort bereits vermehrt eisenhaltige Phasen zu bilden beginnen. Dies führt dazu, dass der nachfolgende Glühprozess für die Durchlegierung noch zusätzlich verkürzt werden kann. Erfindungsgemäß kommt es bereits durch den Mangangehalt zu einer Verkürzung der Glühzeit im Glühprozess (s.u.). Die Vorlegierung ermöglicht noch eine weitere Verkürzung dieser Glühzeit.The pre-alloying step leads to increased diffusion, so that iron is already diffusing from the substrate into the protective coating and increased iron-containing phases are beginning to form there. As a result, the subsequent annealing process for the through-alloying can be further shortened. According to the invention, the manganese content alone shortens the annealing time in the annealing process (see below). The master alloy enables this annealing time to be shortened even further.
Weiterhin wird die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellung eines zuvor beschriebenen Stahlbauteils, umfassend folgende Arbeitsschritte:
- Herstellen eines Stahlflachprodukts durch Anwendung zuvor erläuterten Verfahrens;
- Glühen des Stahlflachproduktes in einem auf eine Temperatur T vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit t definiert durch das Polygon
ABCD nach Figur 11 für Stahlflachprodukte mit einer Dicke zwischen 0,7mm und 1,5mm oder in einem auf eine Temperatur T vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit t definiert durch das PolygonEFGH nach Figur 11 für Stahlflachprodukte mit einer Dicke zwischen 1,5mm und 3,0mm - Warmformen des Stahlflachprodukts zu dem Stahlbauteil.
- producing a steel flat product by using the method explained above;
- Annealing of the steel flat product in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t defined by the polygon ABCD
figure 11 for steel flat products with a thickness between 0.7mm and 1.5mm or in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for a glow time t defined by the polygon EFGHfigure 11 for steel flat products with a thickness between 1.5mm and 3.0mm - Hot forming of the steel flat product to form the steel component.
Unter dem glühen des Stahlflachproduktes in einem auf eine Temperatur T vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit t definiert durch ein Polygon ABCD ist im Sinne dieser Anmeldung zu verstehen, dass das Wertepaar aus Temperatur T und Glühzeit t innerhalb des Polygons liegt, das von den Punkten ABCD gebildet wird.The annealing of the steel flat product in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t defined by a polygon ABCD is to be understood within the meaning of this application that the value pair of temperature T and annealing time t is within the polygon formed by the points ABCD becomes.
Die in
Es versteht sich, dass der gleiche Grad der Durchlegierung bei höheren Temperaturen schneller erreicht wird (also bei kleinerer Glühzeit) als bei niedrigeren Temperaturen. Zusätzlich ist auch die Dicke des Stahlflachproduktes zu berücksichtigen, da es bei dickeren Stahlflachprodukten länger dauert (bzw. höhere Temperaturen erforderlich sind), um die nötige Kerntemperatur für die Bildung von Austenit im Inneren des Stahlflachproduktes zu erreichen.It goes without saying that the same degree of full alloying is achieved more quickly at higher temperatures (ie with a shorter annealing time) than at lower temperatures. In addition, the thickness of the flat steel product must also be taken into account, since thicker flat steel products take longer (or higher temperatures are required) to reach the necessary core temperature for the formation of austenite inside the flat steel product.
Weitere bevorzugte Bereiche für Dicke des Stahlflachproduktes, Temperatur T und Glühzeit t sind in der nachfolgenden Tabelle angegeben:
Die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe wird also ebenfalls gelöst durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellung eines zuvor beschriebenen Stahlbauteils, umfassend folgende Arbeitsschritte:
- Herstellen eines Stahlflachprodukts durch Anwendung zuvor erläuterten Verfahrens;
- Glühen des Stahlflachproduktes mit einer Dicke d in einem auf eine Temperatur T vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit t gemäß einer Varianten aus der voranstehenden Tabelle, beispielsweise also Glühen des Stahlflachproduktes mit einer Dicke von 0,7 - 0,9 mm in einem auf eine Temperatur von 910-930°C vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit von 1,5 - 5 Minuten.
- Warmformen des Stahlflachprodukts zu dem Stahlbauteil.
- producing a steel flat product by using the method explained above;
- Annealing of the flat steel product with a thickness d in a furnace preheated to a temperature T for an annealing time t according to a variant from the table above, for example annealing of the flat steel product with a thickness of 0.7-0.9 mm in a temperature of 910-930°C preheated oven for an annealing time of 1.5 - 5 minutes.
- Hot forming of the steel flat product to form the steel component.
Wie bereits erläutert wird durch das Zulegieren von Mangan bei gleichzeitigem Begrenzen des Siliziumgehaltes der Diffusionsprozess des Eisens aus dem Stahlsubstrat in den Schutzüberzug beschleunigt, d. h. die Zeit für die Durchlegierung verkürzt. Daher kann die Glühzeit gegenüber einem Standardprozess, wie er beispielsweise in der
Während des Glühvorgangs bildet sich im Schutzüberzug der sogenannte Fe-Saum. Dabei handelt sich um eine hoch eisenhaltige Phase im Schutzüberzug an der Grenze zum Stahlsubstrat. Die Dicke des Fe-Saums ist hierbei ein Maß für den Grad der Durchlegierung des Schutzüberzugs. Die Dicke des Fe-Saums nach einer bestimmten Glühzeit, ist daher ein Maß für die Durchlegierungsgeschwindigkeit des Überzuges.During the annealing process, the so-called Fe seam forms in the protective coating. This is a high ferrous phase in the protective coating at the interface with the steel substrate. The thickness of the Fe seam is a measure of the degree of alloying penetration of the protective coating. the The thickness of the Fe seam after a certain annealing time is therefore a measure of the alloying penetration rate of the coating.
Insbesondere ist das Verfahren derart weitergebildet, dass sich beim Glühen des Stahlflachproduktes in einem auf eine Temperatur T vorgeheizten Ofen für eine Glühzeit t definiert durch das Polygon ABCD nach
Bei einer speziellen Weiterbildung ist die Erwärmungstemperatur so hoch ist, dass das Stahlflachprodukt zu Beginn des Umformens eine Warmumformtemperatur hat, bei der das Gefüge des Stahlsubstrats vollständig oder teilweise in austenitisches Gefüge umgewandelt ist, und dass das Stahlflachprodukt nach dem Umformen oder im Zuge des Umformens abgeschreckt wird, so dass sich im Gefüge des Stahlsubstrats des Stahlflachprodukts Härtegefüge bildet. Insbesondere beträgt die Erwärmungstemperatur mindestens 700 °C, insbesondere 880°C bis 950°C.In a special development, the heating temperature is so high that the flat steel product has a hot forming temperature at the start of forming at which the structure of the steel substrate is completely or partially converted into an austenitic structure, and that the flat steel product is quenched after forming or in the course of forming is so that hardened structure is formed in the structure of the steel substrate of the steel flat product. In particular, the heating temperature is at least 700°C, in particular 880°C to 950°C.
Das Stahlsubstrat ist aus einem Stahl, der 0,1-3 Gew.-% Mn und optional bis zu 0,01 Gew.-% B aufweist. Insbesondere ist das Gefüge des Stahls durch ein Warmumformen in ein martensitisches oder teilweise martensitisches Gefüge umwandelbar. Das Gefüge des Stahlsubstrates des Stahlbauteils ist also bevorzugt ein martensitisches oder zumindest teilweise martensitisches Gefüge, da dieses eine besonders hohe Härte aufweist.The steel substrate is of a steel containing 0.1-3 wt% Mn and optionally up to 0.01 wt% B. In particular, the microstructure of the steel is martensitic by hot working or partially martensitic structure convertible. The microstructure of the steel substrate of the steel component is therefore preferably a martensitic or at least partially martensitic microstructure, since this has a particularly high degree of hardness.
Besonders bevorzugt ist das Stahlsubstrat ein Stahl, der neben Eisen und unvermeidbaren Verunreinigungen (in Gew.-%) aus
Bei den Elementen P, S, N, Sn, As, Ca handelt es sich um Verunreinigungen, die bei der Stahlerzeugung nicht vollständig vermieden werden können. Neben diesen Elementen können auch noch weitere Elemente als Verunreinigungen im Stahl vorhanden sein. Diese weiteren Elemente werden unter den "unvermeidbaren Verunreinigungen" zusammengefasst. Bevorzugt beträgt der Gehalt an unvermeidbaren Verunreinigungen in Summe maximal 0,2 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,1 Gew.-%. Die optionalen Legierungselemente Cr, B, Nb, Ti, für die eine Untergrenze angegeben ist, können auch in Gehalten unterhalb der jeweilige Untergrenze als unvermeidbare Verunreinigungen im Stahlsubstrat vorkommen. In dem Fall werden sie ebenfalls zu den unvermeidbaren Verunreinigungen gezählt, deren Gesamtgehalt auf maximal 0,2 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,1 Gew.-% begrenzt ist. Bevorzugt sind die individuellen Obergrenzen für die jeweilige Verunreinigung dieser Elemente wie folgt:
Dabei sind diese bevorzugten Obergrenzen als alternativ oder gemeinsam zu betrachten. Bevorzugte Varianten des Stahls erfüllen also eine oder mehrere dieser vier Bedingungen.These preferred upper limits are to be considered as alternatives or together. Preferred variants of the steel therefore meet one or more of these four conditions.
Bei einer eine bevorzugten Ausführungsform beträgt der C-Gehalt des Stahls maximal 0,37 Gew.-% und/oder mindestens 0,06 Gew.-%. Bei besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsvarianten liegt der C-Gehalt im Bereich von 0,06 - 0,09 Gew.-% oder im Bereich von 0,12 - 0,25 Gew.-% oder im Bereich von 0,33 - 0,37 Gew.-%.In a preferred embodiment, the carbon content of the steel is at most 0.37% by weight and/or at least 0.06% by weight. In particularly preferred variants, the C content is in the range from 0.06 to 0.09% by weight or in the range from 0.12 to 0.25% by weight or in the range from 0.33 to 0.37% by weight %.

Alternatively or additionally, the Al content is preferably at least 0.02%.
Zudem hat sich gezeigt, dass es hilfreich sein kann, wenn die Summe der Gehalte von Silizium und Aluminium begrenzt sind. Bein einer bevorzugten Variante beträgt daher die Summe der Gehalte von Si und Al (üblicherweise bezeichnet als Si+Al) maximal 1,5 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 1,2 Gew.-%. Ergänzend oder alternativ beträgt die Summe der Gehalte von Si und Al mindestens 0,06 Gew.-%, bevorzugt mindestens 0,08 Gew.-%.It has also been shown that it can be helpful if the sum of the silicon and aluminum contents is limited. In a preferred variant, the sum of the contents of Si and Al (usually referred to as Si+Al) is therefore at most 1.5% by weight, preferably at most 1.2% by weight. Additionally or alternatively, the sum of the contents of Si and Al is at least 0.06% by weight, preferably at least 0.08% by weight.
Bei den Elementen P, S, N handelt es sich um typische Verunreinigungen die bei der Stahlerzeugung nicht vollständig vermieden werden können. Bei bevorzugten Varianten beträgt der P-Gehalt maximal 0,03 Gew.-%. Unabhängig davon beträgt der S-Gehalt bevorzugt maximal 0,012%. Zusätzlich oder ergänzend beträgt der N-Gehalt bevorzugt maximal 0,009 Gew.-%.The elements P, S, N are typical impurities that cannot be completely avoided in steel production. In preferred variants, the maximum P content is 0.03% by weight. Regardless, the S content is preferably at most 0.012%. In addition or as a supplement, the N content is preferably at most 0.009% by weight.

The Cr content is preferably at most 0.75% by weight, in particular at most 0.5% by weight.
Im Falle einer optionale Zulegierung von Chrom ist bevorzugt die Summe der Gehalte von Chrom und Mangan begrenzt. Die Summe beträgt maximal 3,3 Gew.-%, insbesondere maximal 3,15 Gew.-%. Weiterhin beträgt die Summe mindestens 0,5 Gew.-%, bevorzugt mindestens 0,75 Gew.-%.In the case of an optional addition of chromium, the sum of the chromium and manganese contents is preferably limited.

Bevorzugt enthält der Stahl optional zudem Bor mit einem Gehalt von 0,001 - 0,005 Gew.-%. Insbesondere beträgt der B-Gehalt maximal 0,004 Gew.-%.The steel preferably also optionally contains boron with a content of 0.001-0.005% by weight. In particular, the B content is at most 0.004% by weight.
Optional kann der Stahl Molybdän mit einem Gehalt von maximal 0,5 Gew.-% enthalten, insbesondere maximal 0,1 Gew.-%.The steel can optionally contain molybdenum with a content of at most 0.5% by weight, in particular at most 0.1% by weight.
Weiterhin kann der Stahl optional Nickel enthalten mit einem Gehalt von maximal 0,5 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,15 Gew.-%.Furthermore, the steel can optionally contain nickel with a content of at most 0.5% by weight, preferably at most 0.15% by weight.
Optional kann der Stahl zudem Kupfer enthalten mit einem Gehalt von maximal 0,2 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,15 Gew.-%.Optionally, the steel can also contain copper with a content of at most 0.2% by weight, preferably at most 0.15% by weight.
Zudem kann der Stahl optional eines oder mehrere der Mikrolegierungselemente Nb, Ti und V enthalten. Dabei beträgt der optionale Nb-Gehalt mindestens 0,02 Gew.-% und maximal 0,08 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,04 Gew.-%. Der optionale Ti-Gehalt beträgt mindestens 0,01 Gew.-% und maximal 0,08 Gew.-%, bevorzugt maximal 0,04 Gew.-%.

The total is at most 0.1% by weight, in particular at most 0.068% by weight. Furthermore, the sum is preferably at least 0.015% by weight.
Die vorstehenden Erläuterungen zu bevorzugten Stahlsubstraten gelten ebenso für das Stahlsubstrat des Stahlflachproduktes, sowie für das Stahlbauteil als auch für die beschriebenen Herstellungsverfahren.The above explanations of preferred steel substrates also apply to the steel substrate of the flat steel product, as well as to the steel component and to the production methods described.
Bei einer bevorzugten Variante des Stahlflachproduktes sowie des Stahlbauteils und der beiden Verfahren ist das Stahlsubstrat ein Stahl aus der Gruppe der Stähle A-E, deren chemische Analyse in Tabelle 2 angegeben ist. Dabei ist die Tabelle 2 so zu verstehen, dass für jeden Stahl aus der Gruppe der Stähle A-E die Elementanteile in Gewichtsprozent angegeben sind. Hierbei ist ein minimaler und ein maximaler Gewichtsanteil angegeben. Beispielsweise umfasst der Stahl A also einen Kohlenstoffanteil C: 0.05 Gew.% - 0.10 Gew.%.In a preferred variant of the steel flat product and the steel component and the two processes, the steel substrate is a steel from the group of steels A-E, the chemical analysis of which is given in Table 2. Table 2 is to be understood in such a way that for each steel from the group of steels A-E the element proportions are given in percent by weight. A minimum and a maximum weight percentage is given here. For example, steel A therefore has a carbon content C: 0.05% by weight-0.10% by weight.

Die
Aus einem 1,5mm dicken Band der Stahlsorte D gemäß der Tabelle 2 mit einem beidseitigen 25 µm dicken aluminiumbasierten Schutzüberzug wurden Formplatinen geschnitten. Als Schneidmethode kam sowohl ein Stanzwerkzeug als auch ein Laser zur Anwendung. Die genaue chemische Zusammensetzung des Substrates war C: 0,223 Gew.-%, Si: 0,294 Gew.-%, Mn: 1,275 Gew.-%, P: 0,008 Gew.-%, S: 0,002 Gew.-%, Al: 0,046 Gew.-%, Cr: 0,181 Gew.-%, Cu: 0,054 Gew.-%, Mo: 0,001 Gew.-%, N: 0,001 Gew.-%, Ni: 0,035 Gew.-%, Nb: 0,002 Gew.-%, Ti: 0,033 Gew.-%, V: 0,007 Gew.-%, B: 0,0033 Gew.-%, Sn: 0,002 Gew.-%.Shaped blanks were cut from a 1.5 mm thick strip of steel grade D according to Table 2 with a 25 μm thick aluminum-based protective coating on both sides. Both a punching tool and a laser were used as cutting methods. The detailed chemical composition of the substrate was C: 0.223 wt%, Si: 0.294 wt%, Mn: 1.275 wt%, P: 0.008 wt%, S: 0.002 wt%, Al: 0.046 wt%, Cr: 0.181 wt%, Cu: 0.054 wt%, Mo: 0.001 wt%, N: 0.001 wt%, Ni: 0.035 wt%, Nb: 0.002 wt% -%, Ti: 0.033 wt%, V: 0.007 wt%, B: 0.0033 wt%, Sn: 0.002 wt%.
Diese Formplatinen wurden in einem 920°C heißem Rollenherdofen für eine Glühzeit t geglüht. Diese Erwärmungstemperatur liegt oberhalb der Ac3-Temperatur, die bei dieser Stahlsorte etwa 860°C beträgt. Somit bildete sich im Stahlsubstrat zumindest teilweise austenitisches Gefüge. Anschließend wurden die Formplatinen in einem Umformwerkzeug umgeformt und dabei abgeschreckt.These blanks were annealed in a roller hearth furnace at 920° C. for an annealing time t. This heating temperature is above the Ac3 temperature, which is around 860°C for this steel grade. Thus, an at least partially austenitic structure was formed in the steel substrate. The blanks were then formed in a forming tool and quenched in the process.
Tabelle 1 zeigt die Dicke des Fe-Saums für verschiedene Varianten der eisenlosen Massenanteile der Elemente Mg, Mn und Si sowie für verschiedene Glühzeiten t.Table 1 shows the thickness of the Fe seam for different variants of the non-ferrous mass fractions of the elements Mg, Mn and Si and for different annealing times t.

- Aluminum with 0.4% magnesium, 0.8% manganese, 0.2% silicon
- Aluminum with 0.4% magnesium, 1.6% manganese, 0.2% silicon
Deutlich ist hier der Effekt des Mangans zu erkennen. Während sich bei längeren Glühzeiten so gut wie kein Unterschied zeigt, führt die Beilegierung von Mangan dazu, dass sich bereits bei der kurzen Glühzeit von 3 Minuten ein Fe-Saum von 7 µm ergibt, der eine ausreichende Durchlegierung belegt.The effect of the manganese can be clearly seen here. While there is virtually no difference with longer annealing times, the addition of manganese results in an Fe fringe of 7 µm resulting even with the short annealing time of 3 minutes, which demonstrates adequate alloying.

- Aluminum with 0.4% magnesium, 0.8% manganese, 2% silicon
- Aluminum with 0.4% magnesium, 1.6% manganese, 2% silicon
Deutlich ist zu erkennen, dass der Effekt des Mangans nicht mehr auftritt. Nach 3 Minuten Glühdauer ist bei allen drei Varianten kein signifikanter Fe-Saum zu erkennen.It can be clearly seen that the effect of the manganese no longer occurs. After 3 minutes of annealing, no significant Fe seam can be seen in any of the three variants.

- Aluminum without additives
- Aluminum with 1.6% manganese, 0.0% silicon
- Aluminum with 1.6% manganese, 0.5% silicon
Deutlich ist zu erkennen, dass der sich bei den Varianten mit 1,6% Mangan deutlich früher ein signifikanten Fe-Saum bildet. Zudem wird ebenfalls deutlich, dass der gleiche Effekt sowohl bei 0,5% Silizium als auch bei 0% Silizium auftritt. Bei den Versuchen ohne Magnesium-Beilegierung konnte die Silizium-Verunreinigung auf unter 0,05% gesenkt werden. 0% Silizium ist bei diesen Versuchen daher als bis zu 0,05% Si zu verstehen.It can be clearly seen that a significant Fe fringe forms much earlier in the variants with 1.6% manganese. In addition, it also becomes clear that the same effect occurs both with 0.5% silicon and with 0% silicon. In the tests without magnesium alloying, the silicon contamination was reduced to less than 0.05%. In these tests, 0% silicon is therefore to be understood as up to 0.05% Si.
Die letzten drei Zeilen der Tabelle 1 sind nicht graphisch dargestellt. In dieser Versuchsreihe wurde nochmals untersucht, ob es signifikante Auswirkungen des Magnesiums-Gehalts gibt. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass der Magnesium-Gehalt keine Auswirkungen auf den Effekt hat.The last three lines of Table 1 are not plotted. In this series of tests, it was examined again whether there are any significant effects of the magnesium content. It has been shown that the magnesium content has no impact on the effect.
