Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a steel sheet, which is preferably used as a substrate of a high-strength and high-formability hot-dip galvanized steel sheet and a substrate of a hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet, having a high Si content.
  • an ultra-high-strength steel sheet having a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more is applied to the automobile member such as the automobile body.
  • a method is known in which inexpensive Si is contained in a chemical composition of the steel sheet. When Si is contained in the chemical composition of the steel sheet, not only the strength but also the formability of the steel sheet can be improved.
  • a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet (GI steel sheet) and a hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet (GA steel sheet) obtained by alloying the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet are used from the viewpoint of securing corrosion resistance and weldability.
  • GI steel sheet a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet
  • GA steel sheet hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet obtained by alloying the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet
  • problems such as bare spot, reduction in plating adhesion, and an alloying unevenness in alloying treatment are likely to occur finally.
  • problems such as peeling of the plating during processing of the hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet may also occur.
  • the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet containing Si in a steel raw material is often manufactured using an oxidation-reduction method using an annealing furnace having an oxidation heating zone and a reduction heating zone.
  • an oxidation-reduction method since iron oxide generated in the oxidation heating zone is generated in a reduced Fe layer during reduction annealing, plating wettability during plating can be improved.
  • a method of forming an internal oxide layer containing SiO 2 and the like necessary for plating in advance in a steel sheet by increasing a coiling temperature in hot rolling is also used.
  • Patent Literature 1 describes a high-strength hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet with a good appearance containing Fe on a high-strength steel sheet containing C: 0.05 to 0.25%, Si: 0.3 to 2.5%, Mn: 1.5 to 2.8%, P: 0.03% or less, S: 0.02% or less, Al: 0.005 to 0.5%, and N: 0.0060% or less in terms of mass%, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities, and having a hot-dip galvannealed layer containing Zn and unavoidable impurities as the balance, in which an oxide containing Si at a crystal grain boundary on a steel sheet side of 5 ⁇ m or less from an interface between a high-strength steel sheet and a plating layer and within the crystal grains is present at an average content of 0.6 to 10 mass%, and an oxide containing Si is present in the plating layer at an average content of 0.05 to 1.5 mass%.
  • Patent Literature 2 describes a method for manufacturing a high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having excellent plating adhesion, formability, and appearance, and this method includes a hot rolling step of hot rolling a slab containing C: 0.05 to 0.30%, Si: 0.1 to 2.0%, and Mn: 1.0 to 4.0% in terms of mass%, then coiling the steel sheet into a coil at a specific temperature Tc, and pickling the steel sheet, a cold rolling step of cold rolling the hot-rolled steel sheet resulting from the hot rolling step, an annealing step of annealing the cold-rolled steel sheet resulting from the cold rolling step under specific conditions, and a hot-dip galvanizing step of hot-dip galvanizing the annealed sheet resulting from the annealing step in a hot-dip galvanizing bath containing 0.12 to 0.22 mass% Al.
  • Patent Literature 3 describes a cold-rolled steel sheet obtained by heat-treating a raw steel piece in a temperature range of 650 to 950°C in an atmosphere in which reduction does not substantially occur after hot rolling while keeping adhesion of a black scale, thereby forming an internal oxide layer on a surface portion of a base steel sheet of the steel sheet, and then performing pickling, cold rolling, and recrystallization annealing according to a conventional method.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a steel sheet which has a high Si content, can suppress alloying unevenness, and has good pickling properties without actually including a step of evaluating pickling properties.
  • a method for manufacturing a steel sheet according to a first aspect of the present invention includes a step of annealing a steel raw material having a Si content of 1.0 mass% or more under a condition satisfying a following formula 1: [Mathematical Formula 1] 0.19 ⁇ exp ⁇ 10770 T + 273 ⁇ t ⁇ 0.63
  • a method for manufacturing a steel sheet according to another first aspect of the present invention includes a step of annealing a steel raw material having an Si content of 1.0 mass% or more and a Cr content of 1.0 mass% or less, under a condition satisfying:
  • Patent Literatures 1 to 3 relate to a method for manufacturing a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet or the like in which an Si content of a steel sheet is increased to 1 mass% or more, and a method for forming an internal oxide layer well.
  • the coil when the coil is cooled after coiling in hot rolling, the coil is steeply cooled in the vicinity of the width direction edge of the steel sheet.
  • the internal oxide layer hardly grows, and a layer is formed thin.
  • the internal oxide layer in the vicinity of the width direction center of the steel sheet, the internal oxide layer sufficiently grows, and a layer is formed thick.
  • the internal oxide layer in the vicinity of the width direction edge is preferentially dissolved. As described above, the thickness of the internal oxide layer is different in the coil width direction, which causes alloying unevenness.
  • Patent Literature 3 according to the method of heat-treating the hot-rolled steel sheet again, more internal oxide layers can be formed. However, by heat-treating the steel sheet again in addition to heating during hot rolling, an oxidation scale formed on a surface of the steel sheet is further increased. As a result, even if pickling is performed later, the oxidation scale is not sufficiently removed and remains, which may cause a problem of poor pickling properties. This is because the oxidation scale on the surface of the steel sheet is partially reduced to be reduced iron. For example, according to the manufacturing method described in Patent Literature 3, since the temperature of the heat treatment is high, the surface of the steel sheet is covered with reduced iron, and the scale cannot be removed by pickling.
  • the pickling properties are evaluated as good if the scale is removed after the pickling is actually performed, and the pickling properties are evaluated as poor if the scale is not removed. In other words, there is no index of quantitative evaluation of the pickling properties when the pickling properties are good or when the pickling properties are poor.
  • the problem of the alloying unevenness and the problem of the pickling properties can be solved by satisfying a predetermined relational expression between the soaking temperature T, the soaking time t, and a Cr content depending on the Cr content in the steel raw material.
  • the "internal oxide layer” means an internal oxide layer containing SiO 2 (including oxidized portions of both grain boundary oxidation and intragranular oxidation) that can be generated inside the steel sheet during heating in hot rolling and annealing.
  • the internal oxide layer is present between a surface layer of the steel sheet and a steel sheet base portion which is an inner portion of the steel sheet not containing an oxide such as SiO 2 .
  • an amount of the internal oxide layer can be measured as a dissolved amount (g/m 2 ) per unit area by immersing and dissolving the internal oxide layer in an acidic solution such as hydrochloric acid.
  • an “edge in the coil width direction (of the steel sheet)” basically intends both edges in the coil width direction, that is, both ends in a sheet width direction.
  • the vicinity of the edge in the coil width direction (of the steel sheet) means a peripheral portion of the position of the edge in the coil width direction.
  • the method for manufacturing a steel sheet according to the second embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as a steel raw material (steel or steel sheet) having a Si content of 1.0 mass% or more and a Cr content of 1.0 mass% or less is used, and the method includes an annealing step under a condition satisfying a predetermined relational expression depending on the Cr content as described later.
  • a steel raw material such as a slab for rolling having a chemical composition in which the Si content is 1.0 mass% or more is prepared.
  • a steel raw material such as a slab for rolling having a chemical composition in which the Si content is 1.0 mass% or more and the Cr content is 1.0 mass% or less is prepared. Details of the chemical composition of the steel raw material will be described later.
  • the steel raw material such as a slab can be provided by any known method. Examples of a method for preparing the slab include a method in which steel having a chemical composition described later is produced, and the slab is prepared by ingot-making or continuous casting. If necessary, a cast material obtained by ingot-making or continuous casting may be subjected to blooming and billet-making to obtain a slab.
  • hot rolling is performed using the obtained steel raw material such as a slab to obtain a hot-rolled steel sheet.
  • the hot rolling may be performed by a method according to any known conditions.
  • the coiling temperature is preferably 500°C to 700°C. By setting the coiling temperature to 500°C or higher, the internal oxide layer can be sufficiently grown, and it becomes easy to secure the internal oxide layer in the vicinity of the width direction edge after the subsequent steps.
  • the coiling temperature is more preferably 520°C or higher, and still more preferably 530°C or higher. By setting the coiling temperature to 700°C or lower, an amount of reduced iron generated by cooling after hot rolling can be more reliably reduced, and a steel sheet having better pickling properties can be obtained.
  • the coiling temperature is more preferably 680°C or lower, and still more preferably 660°C or lower.
  • the slab before hot rolling may be soakingly retained at a temperature of 1000°C to 1300°C or lower according to a conventional method, a finish rolling temperature may be set to 800°C or higher, and then the slab may be coiled as a coiled steel sheet.

  • decarburization is generally suppressed when the Cr content in the steel raw material increases. Since reduced iron is generated by connection between carbon in steel and oxygen in the scale during decarburization, when the decarburization amount decreases due to an increase in the Cr content, reduced iron to be generated also decreases, and good pickling properties can be obtained.
  • the soaking temperature during annealing can be further increased without generating a large amount of reduced iron, and the amount of the internal oxide layer can be increased. Therefore, as the Cr content is larger, the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer based on x 2 obtained by substituting conditions into the formula 4 can be increased.
  • x 2 obtained by substituting the annealing condition of Test No. 54 into the formula 4 can be defined as the upper limit value "0.63" related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer as represented by the formula 6.
  • the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer can be derived from the results of Test Nos. 54 and 58.
  • the straight line of the upper limit value with respect to the Cr content passing through two points of the upper limit value of "0.63" when the Cr content is 0.2 mass% and the upper limit value of "0.93" when the Cr content is 0.6 mass% can be defined as the upper limit value "0.75 Cr [%]+0.48" related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer according to the Cr content as represented by the formula 8.
  • the measured reduced iron area ratio is 26%, which is significantly lower than the upper limit value (that is, less than 45%) of the reduced iron area ratio at which good pickling properties can be obtained. Therefore, even when the Cr content is less than 0.2 mass% (preferably, the Cr content is more than 0 mass% and less than 0.2 mass%), it is considered that the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer can be defined as "0.63" as in the case where the Cr content is 0.2 mass%.
  • the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer may be defined as "0.75 Cr [%]+0.48"from the straight line of the upper limit value with respect to the Cr content passing through the two points of the upper limit value of "0.63" when the Cr content is 0.2 mass% and the upper limit value of "0.93" when the Cr content is 0.6 mass%.
  • the Cr content is more than 0.6 mass% and 1 mass% or less, decarburization during annealing is further suppressed as compared with Test No. 58 in the case where the Cr content is 0.6 mass%. Therefore, since the amount of reduced iron to be generated is also reduced, it is assumed that the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer can be set to a larger value. Therefore, even when the Cr content is more than 0.6 mass% and 1 mass% or less, the upper limit value related to the pickling properties of the internal oxide layer can be defined as "0.93" as in the case where the Cr content is 0.6 mass%.
  • the present invention it is possible to produce a steel sheet capable of suppressing the alloying unevenness and having good pickling properties even when the Si content is large.
  • a high-strength and high-formability hot-dip galvanized steel sheet and a hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet having a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more which are suitably applied to an automobile member such as an automobile body.
