  • a steel sheet 10 may exist as a full austenite structure at a hot stamping heating temperature, and then may be transformed into a martensitic structure when cooling.
  • the steel sheet 10 may include carbon (C), manganese (Mn), boron (B), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), silicon (Si), chromium (Cr), the balance iron (Fe), and other unavoidable impurities.

  • the steel sheet 10 may further include a predetermined amount of calcium (Ca).
  • Carbon (C) functions as an austenite stabilizing element in the steel sheet 10.
  • Carbon is a major element that determines the strength and hardness of the steel sheet 10, and, after a hot stamping process, is added for the purpose of securing tensile strength (e.g., tensile strength of about 1,350 MPa or greater) and securing hardenability property of the steel sheet 10.
  • Such carbon may be included in an amount of about 0.19 wt% to about 0.38 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10.
  • the carbon content is less than about 0.19 wt %, it is difficult to secure a hard phase (martensite, etc.), thus, it is difficult to satisfy the mechanical strength of the steel sheet 10.
  • the carbon content exceeds about 0.38 wt%, a problem of brittleness or a reduction in bending performance of the steel sheet 10 may occur.
  • Manganese (Mn) functions as an austenite stabilizing element in the steel sheet 10. Manganese is added for the purpose of increasing hardenability and strength during heat treatment. Such manganese may be included in an amount of about 0.5 wt% to about 2.0 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10. When the manganese content is less than about 0.5 wt%, the hardenability effect is not sufficient, and the hard phase fraction in the molded body after hot stamping may be insufficient due to insufficient hardenability.
  • Boron (B) is added for the purpose of securing a martensitic structure by suppressing the transformation of ferrite, pearlite, and bainite, and thus, to secure the hardenability and strength of the steel sheet 10.
  • boron segregates at grain boundaries and increases hardenability by lowering grain boundary energy, and has an effect of refining grains by increasing austenite grain growth temperature.
  • Boron may be included in an amount of about 0.001 wt % to about 0.005 wt % based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10.

  • S may be included in an amount greater than 0 and about 0.003 wt% or less based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10. If the sulfur content exceeds about 0.003 wt%, hot workability, weldability, and impact properties are deteriorated, and surface defects, such as cracks may occur due to the generation of large inclusions.
  • Silicon (Si) functions as a ferrite stabilizing element in the steel sheet 10. Silicon improves the strength of the steel sheet 10 as a solid solution strengthening element, and improves the carbon concentration in austenite by suppressing the formation of carbides in the low-temperature region.
  • silicon is a key element in hot rolling, cold rolling, hot pressing, homogenizing the structure (perlite, manganese segregation zone control), and fine dispersion of ferrite. Silicon serves as a martensitic strength heterogeneity control element to improve collision performance. Silicon may be included in an amount of about 0.1 wt% to about 0.6 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10.
  • the content of silicon is less than about 0.1wt%, it is difficult to obtain the above-described effect, and cementite formation and coarsening may occur in the final hot stamping martensitic structure. Conversely, when the content of silicon exceeds about 0.6 wt%, the load of hot rolling and cold rolling may increase, and the plating characteristic of the steel sheet 10 may be deteriorated.
  • Chromium is added for the purpose of improving the hardenability and strength of the steel sheet 10. Chromium helps refine grains and secure strength of the steel sheet 10 through precipitation hardening. Chromium may be included in an amount of about 0.05 wt% to about 0.6 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10. When the content of chromium is less than about 0.05wt%, the precipitation hardening effect is low, and on the contrary, when the content of chromium exceeds 0.6wt%, the Cr-based precipitates and matrix solid solution are increased resulting in the decrease in toughness, and production cost may be increased.
  • unavoidable impurities may include nitrogen (N) and the like.
  • Nitrogen may be included in an amount greater than 0 and about 0.001 wt% or less based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10. When the nitrogen content exceeds about 0.001 wt%, impact properties and elongation of the steel sheet 10 may be deteriorated.
  • An additive is an element that generates carbide to contribute to the formation of precipitates in the steel sheet 10.
  • the additive may include at least one of titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), and vanadium (V).
  • Titanium (Ti) forms precipitates, such as TiC and/or TiN at a high temperature, thereby effectively contributing to austenite grain refinement. Titanium may be included in an amount of about 0.001 wt% to about 0.050 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10.
  • titanium When titanium is included in the content range described above, it is possible to prevent continuous casting defects and coarsening of precipitates, to easily secure the physical properties of the steel, and to prevent defects, such as cracks on a surface of the steel.
  • the content of titanium exceeds about 0.050 wt%, the precipitates are coarsened, and elongation and bendability may decrease.
  • Niobium (Nb) and vanadium (V) may increase strength and toughness according to a decrease in martensite packet size.
  • Each of niobium and vanadium may be included in an amount of about 0.01 wt% to about 0.1 wt% based on the total weight of the steel sheet 10.
  • the crystal grain refinement effect of the steel sheet 10 is high in hot rolling and cold rolling processes, the generation of cracks in a slab during steelmaking/casting and brittle fracture of the product are prevented, and the generation of coarse precipitates in steelmaking is minimized.
  • Calcium (Ca) may be added to control an inclusion shape. Calcium may be included in an amount of about 0.003 wt% or less based on the total weight of the steel plate 10.
  • the steel sheet 10 After a hot rolling process and/or a cold rolling process, when the steel sheet 10 is cooled to room temperature, residual stress exists in the steel sheet 10 of the hot stamping component manufactured through a hot stamping process.
  • the 'residual stress' refers to stress present in the hot stamping component in a state that no external force acts on the steel sheet 10.

  • the tensile strength of a hot stamping component is determined such that when defects inside the steel sheet 10 are present at an appropriate level, the more defects (or the greater the residual stress), the higher the tensile strength, and the lower defects (or the lower the residual stress) the less the tensile strength. This is because the more defects inside the steel sheet 10, the more irregular arrangement the elements are, which makes difficult to move dislocations that cause material deformation.
  • the hydrogen embrittlement of the steel sheet 10 may be reduced as there are more defects (or the larger residual stress), and may be improved as there are less defects (or the smaller residual stress).
  • an amount of activated hydrogen is reduced, and thus, hydrogen embrittlement of the product may be improved.
  • fine precipitates present therein e.g., nitrides or carbides of titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb) and vanadium (V), etc.
  • defects existing therein may also serve as hydrogen trap sites.
  • the defect has a relatively low binding energy with hydrogen, hydrogen trapped by the defect and deactivated is highly likely to return to activated hydrogen.
  • the defect does not function as an effective hydrogen trap site, but rather, the hydrogen embrittlement may be reduced by locally concentrating activated hydrogen in a portion having many defects (or a portion having a large residual stress).
  • the hot stamping component may include at least one bent portion according to an applied position in a structure of a vehicle, and the bent portion is a portion that is formed excessively compared to a flat area during a hot stamping process. That is, the bent portion may act as a hydrogen embrittlement weakness portion because stress caused by a press is relatively concentrated during the hot stamping process, and thus, residual stress may increase.
  • defects existing in the steel plate 10 and residual stress resulting therefrom may be appropriately adjusted by controlling a residual stress analysis value, which is quantified the residual stress present in the steel plate 10, to satisfy a preset condition.
  • the residual stress analysis value may be a product of a magnitude of an XRD value (or an absolute value of the XRD value) quantifying the residual stress by X-ray diffraction and a magnitude of an electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) value (or an absolute value of the EBSD value) quantifying an orientation by EBSD.

  • the residual stress may be measured by the sin 2 ⁇ method.
  • the sin 2 ⁇ method is to obtain a peak position of a diffraction line by irradiating X-rays to a portion to be measured.

  • the XRD analysis has high representativeness because it targets a relatively wide range, but has a disadvantage in that deviation is large and uniformity is not good.
  • the deviation of the XRD values tends to increase as the residual stress inside the product increases. Therefore, there is a problem in that it is difficult to accurately analyze and control the residual stress of a material only with the XRD value obtained by quantifying the residual stress by XRD analysis.

  • the residual stress analysis value may be substantially proportional to the defect in the hot stamping component and the resulting residual stress. Specifically, it may be understood that the larger the residual stress analysis value, the more defects exist inside the product and the greater the residual stress, and the less the residual stress analysis value, the fewer defects exist inside the product and the less the residual stress. Furthermore, it may be understood that the higher the residual stress analysis value, the greater the tensile strength of the product, but the hydrogen embrittlement is not high, and the less the residual stress analysis value, the less the tensile strength of the product, but the better the hydrogen embrittlement. Therefore, mechanical properties and hydrogen embrittlement of a product may be properly secured by controlling the residual stress analysis value to satisfy a preset condition.

However, because bainite is softer than martensite, in order to secure strength and bendability of the steel sheet 10, it is preferable that the bainite has an area fraction of less than about 20%.
  • the aforementioned iron-based carbide having an acicular form may be precipitated inside the bainite phase.

In this case, the iron-based carbide may be present in an amount of less than about 20% in the bainite phase based on the bainite phase. If the iron-based carbide is about 20% or greater based on the bainite phase, voids may be generated, which may lead to a decrease in bendability.
