Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a steel sheet suitable as a vehicle material, and more particularly, to an ultra-high strength steel sheet having excellent ductility.
  • the phase-transformation steel is classified into ferrite-martensite dual phase (DP) steel in which a hard martensite phase is formed in a ferrite matrix, transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) steel using transformation induced plasticity of retained-austenite, and complexed phase (CP) steel composed of ferrite and a hard bainite or martensite structure.
  • DP ferrite-martensite dual phase
  • TRIP transformation induced plasticity
  • CP complexed phase
  • Each type of steel has different mechanical properties, that is, a tensile strength and an elongation, according to a type and fraction of a mother phase and a second phase.
  • TRIP steel containing a large amount of a retained-austenite phase has the highest tensile strength and elongation balance (TS ⁇ EI) value.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses steel that contains about 10% of a retained-austenite phase, in addition to ferrite and martensite, has a product of a tensile strength and an elongation of 21,000 MPa% or more, and may secure a tensile strength of 780 MPa or more.
  • carbon (C) and silicon (Si) are added to the steel in high contents of about 0.2% and about 1.5% or more, respectively, spot weldability and hot-dip galvanizing properties may be deteriorated.
  • annealing is performed twice in order to realize high physical properties, there is a problem in that the manufacturing cost of the steel sheet is increased.
  • Patent Document 2 discloses a technique capable of lowering a content of Si to a level of 1% in order to secure excellent plating properties and spot weldability and securing a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more and an elongation of 15% or more by being composed of martensite, bainite, and ferrite without containing a retained-austenite phase as a microstructure.
  • high-strength steel having an excellent yield strength has been adopted for structural members such as a member, a seat rail, and a pillar, but the steel has a yield strength of 700 MPa or less, and thus has limitations in its applications.
  • An aspect of the present disclosure is to provide a steel sheet, a steel sheet suitable for a vehicle structural member and the like, having an excellent tensile strength and yield strength and improved ductility, and a method for manufacturing the same.
  • an ultra-high strength steel sheet having excellent ductility contains, by wt%, 0.1 to 0.2% of carbon (C), 0.1 to 1.0% of silicon (Si), 2.0 to 3.0% of manganese (Mn), 1.0% or less (excluding 0%) of aluminum (Al), 1.0% or less of chromium (Cr), 0.5% or less of molybdenum (Mo), 0.1% or less of titanium (Ti), 0.1% or less of niobium (Nb), 0.1% or less (excluding 0%) of antimony (Sb), 0.05% or less of phosphorus (P), 0.02% or less of sulfur (S), 0.02% or less of nitrogen (N), and a balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, wherein the ultra-high strength steel sheet satisfies the following Relational Expressions 1 to 3.
  • each element represents a weight content
  • a method for manufacturing an ultra-high strength steel sheet having excellent ductility includes: preparing a steel slab satisfying the alloy composition and Relational Expressions 1 to 3; heating the steel slab to a temperature within a range of 1,050 to 1,300°C; hot rolling the heated steel slab at a temperature within a range of 800 to 1,000°C to manufacture a hot-rolled steel sheet; coiling the hot-rolled steel sheet at a temperature within a range of 400 to 700°C; cold rolling the coiled hot-rolled steel sheet at a total reduction ratio of 20 to 70% to manufacture a cold-rolled steel sheet; annealing the cold-rolled steel sheet at a temperature within a range of 800 to 900°C; cooling the continuously annealed cold-rolled steel sheet to a temperature range of 250 to 400°C; and reheating and maintaining the cooled cold-rolled steel sheet, wherein the reheating and maintaining are performed at a temperature within a range of the cooled temperature + 50°C or higher to the cooled temperature + 200°
  • a steel sheet having an excellent tensile strength and yield strength and improved ductility may be provided, and the steel sheet of the present disclosure has an advantage of guaranteeing formability and crashworthiness required for a steel sheet for cold forming.
  • the inventors of the present disclosure have intensively conducted studies to provide a steel sheet as a vehicle material that guarantees formability and crashworthiness because it has an excellent tensile strength and ductility and has an excellent yield strength, and thus is applicable to a structural member required to be processed into a complex shape, and the like.
  • a steel sheet having a structure advantageous for securing desired physical properties may be provided by optimizing an alloy composition system and manufacturing conditions, thereby completing the present disclosure.
  • the present disclosure is characterized by providing a steel sheet having a composite structure in which a soft phase and a hard phase are properly dispersed by controlling a content relationship between specific elements among alloy components and optimizing process conditions of a steel sheet manufactured through a series of processes.
  • An ultra-high strength steel sheet having excellent ductility may contain, by wt%, 0.1 to 0.2% of carbon (C), 0.1 to 1.0% of silicon (Si), 2.0 to 3.0% of manganese (Mn), 1.0% or less (excluding 0%) of aluminum (Al), 1.0% or less of chromium (Cr), 0.5% or less of molybdenum (Mo), 0.1% or less of titanium (Ti), 0.1% or less of niobium (Nb), 0.1% or less (excluding 0%) of antimony (Sb), 0.05% or less of phosphorus (P), 0.02% or less of sulfur (S), and 0.02% or less of nitrogen (N).
  • C carbon
  • Si silicon
  • Mn manganese
  • Al aluminum
  • Cr chromium
  • Mo molybdenum
  • Ti titanium
  • Nb niobium
  • P antimony
  • S 0.05% or less of phosphorus
  • S sulfur
  • N nitrogen
  • a content of each element is based on weight, and a ratio of a structure is based on area, unless specifically stated otherwise.
  • Carbon (C) is an element that significantly contributes to enhancing the strength of the steel sheet. C precipitates in grains of the steel sheet to induce solid solution strengthening and promotes formation of martensite in the steel to strengthen the steel.
  • C is an austenite stabilizing element and plays an important role in forming retained-austenite. Specifically, as the amount of carbon (C) solid-dissolved in austenite is increased, austenite stability is increased, such that a fraction of austenite in the steel is increased. This induces an increase in fraction of martensite formed due to transformation of austenite, such that an effect of improving the strength of the steel sheet may be obtained, and some austenite remains at room temperature to remain as retained-austenite.
  • C may be added in an amount of 0.1% or more.
  • the content thereof exceeds 0.2%, the fraction of the martensite phase is excessively increased, and a fraction of a ferrite phase having an excellent elongation and impact absorption energy is relatively decreased. This causes a reduction in ductility of the steel sheet and an increase in possibility of occurrence of brittleness.
  • C may be contained in an amount of 0.1 to 0.2%, and more preferably 0.12% or more and 0.18% or less.
  • Silicon (Si) is an element contributing to stabilization of retained-austenite by suppressing precipitation of carbides in ferrite and inducing diffusion of carbon in ferrite to austenite.
  • Si in an amount of 0.1% or more.
  • Si oxide is formed on a steel surface, which may cause deterioration of the effects of hot-dip plating and chemical conversion coating.
