Description

Cold rolled steel sheet and method of manufacturing same

The present invention relates to a cold-rolled steel sheet suitable for use as a plate, a disk, a ring, or the like of an automotive drive-train parts. The raw material is excellent in punchability and heat strain resistance.

It is used as a plate, a disk, a ring, etc. (for example, an automatic transmission (AT) plate, etc.) of a drive system component of an automobile. Before the steel plate is punched into a predetermined shape, hardening is performed for the purpose of hardening. (Quenching) or the like is heat-treated and adjusted to a predetermined hardness, and then bonded by a friction material. However, in the existing manufacturing method, a large amount of heat energy is consumed in the heat treatment, and a dedicated heat treatment apparatus is required, so that an increase in manufacturing cost cannot be avoided.

Under the above circumstances, in recent years, a cold-rolled steel sheet which is adjusted to a desired hardness by cold rolling has been used instead of the heat treatment after the blanking. In the case of applying cold-rolled steel sheets, heat treatment such as quenching is no longer required, so that manufacturing can be drastically reduced. cost. However, in the case of applying a cold-rolled steel sheet, a large warpage sometimes occurs in the parts after press working. Therefore, there is a problem that shape straitening is required after punching. Further, there is a problem that a predetermined shape cannot be obtained even if it is corrected. Even if a good flatness is obtained after stamping, residual stress is also present when exposed to high temperatures in a bonding process with a friction material or an actual use environment (residual Stress) The problem of thermal strain that is released and deformed.

However, in the technique proposed in Patent Document 1, since the rapid cooling is performed after the completion of the hot rolling and the temperature is wound at a temperature as low as 600 ° C or lower, the residual stress inside the hot-rolled steel sheet is increased, and as a result, it is cold. The rolled steel sheet also has a state in which a large residual stress is accumulated. When the directly cold-rolled steel sheet in which the large residual stress is accumulated is press-formed, good flatness is obtained while maintaining the press forming, but in the bonding step of the friction material after the press forming The residual stress is released by heating, so that there is a problem of thermal strain in which flatness is deteriorated.

In the technique proposed in Patent Document 2, since a large number of hot-rolled steel sheets containing a lot of ferrite or toughened iron which are harder than ferrite iron are subjected to cold rolling, cold iron and waves are formed during cold rolling. Uneven deformation occurs near the phase boundary of the iron or toughened iron, and the residual stress inside the steel sheet increases. Therefore, if When the cold-rolled steel sheet obtained by the press forming is formed into a punched shape, a good flat shape and an appearance of the punched surface are obtained. However, similarly to the technique proposed in Patent Document 1, heat is generated. The problem of heat strain.

In the technique proposed in Patent Document 3, the C content is as high as 0.15 mass% to 0.25 mass%, and the winding temperature in the hot rolling step is as low as 500 ° C to 600 ° C, so that a large amount of ferrite or toughening is generated in the hot rolled steel sheet. iron. Therefore, similarly to the technique proposed in Patent Document 2, the residual stress in the steel sheet during cold rolling increases, and as a result, even if a flat shape is obtained while maintaining press forming, there is a case where heating occurs after press forming. The problem of thermal strain.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems and to provide a cold-rolled steel sheet having a hardness required for use as a drive component such as a plate or a disk, a flatness after press, a press end surface property, and a heat-resistant strain characteristic, and a method for producing the same. Here, the heat-resistant strain property is a property in which the deformation of the steel sheet is small and sufficient flatness is obtained when heated to a temperature range of about 100° C. to 400° C. in the bonding step of the friction material or the actual use environment.

In order to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present invention have actively studied various factors affecting the heat-resistant strain characteristics of the cold-rolled steel sheet, the flatness after press, and the properties of the press-faced end.

As a result, it was found that in order to improve the heat resistance strain characteristics, it is effective to reduce the residual stress after cold rolling. And found that in order to reduce the residual stress after cold rolling, it is important to be cold The rolling reduction in rolling is set to a predetermined value or less; and the amount of C of the steel material is reduced to a predetermined value or less and the winding temperature of the hot rolling step is specified, whereby the hot rolled sheet before cold rolling is set For the ferrite core main phase, reduce the volume fraction of the ferromagnetic phase or the toughened iron phase of the hot rolled sheet, and control the average particle size and average aspect ratio of the ferrite or toughened iron phase of the cold rolled steel sheet. Average aspect ratio.

The hot-rolled sheet before cold rolling contains ferrite iron as a main phase, and a ferromagnetic phase or a toughened iron phase as a hard phase (hereinafter, any of a ferrite phase and a tough iron phase may be used hereinafter) In the case of the above-mentioned "hard phase", uneven deformation occurs in the vicinity of the interface between the ferrite-iron phase and the hard phase during cold rolling, and residual stress is likely to be accumulated. Therefore, by setting the hot-rolled sheet before cold rolling as the ferrite-grain main phase and reducing the volume fraction of the hard phase contained in the hot-rolled sheet, it is possible to reduce the accompanying ferrite iron/wave during cold rolling. The residual stress of uneven deformation near the interface of the iron or the interface of the ferrite iron/toughened iron can improve the heat-resistant strain characteristics of the cold-rolled steel sheet. When the above-described cold-rolled steel sheet is used to manufacture a drive component such as a plate, it is of course possible to solve the problem of lowering the flatness due to thermal strain after being press-formed into a predetermined shape, even in the step of bonding with the friction material or the actual use environment. The lower exposure to high temperatures also solves the problem of flatness reduction caused by thermal strain.

The present inventors have found that the hot-rolled sheet before cold rolling is used as the main phase of the ferrite-grained iron, the volume fraction of the hard phase of the hot-rolled sheet is lowered, and the average particle diameter and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase are controlled. It is extremely effective to improve the flatness and the end face properties of the cold-rolled steel sheet after the press.

By avoiding the formation of a hard phase in the hot rolled sheet before cold rolling, it is cold Uniform characteristics are obtained in the rolled steel sheet, and thus good flatness is obtained after punching. Further, by forming a hard phase as much as possible in the hot-rolled sheet before cold rolling, the hetero-phase interface (the interface between the ferrite-grained iron phase and the hard phase) which is likely to cause cracks is reduced during press forming, and thus the punching end face property is improved.

In the cold rolling, the hard phase extends in the rolling direction, but the hardness difference between the ferrite iron and the hard phase as the main phase is large, and thus the hard phase is extended toward the rolling direction (that is, the aspect ratio of the hard phase is larger), The larger the strain accumulated in the interface between the ferrite grain iron phase and the hard phase, the residual stress is accumulated, and the heat-resistant strain characteristics of the cold-rolled steel sheet are lowered. Therefore, in order to improve these characteristics, it is necessary to set the average aspect ratio of the hard phase containing any one or more of the ferrite and the toughened iron phase to a predetermined value or less. Further, by controlling the average particle diameter of the hard phase to a predetermined value or less, even if cracks occur from the boundary between different phases, crack propagation can be prevented from being largely propagated, and a defective end face can be obtained.

In order to reduce the volume fraction of the hard phase of the hot-rolled sheet by reducing the volume fraction of the hard phase of the hot-rolled sheet, the hot-rolled sheet before cold rolling is reduced to a predetermined value or less. It is necessary to set the winding temperature of the hot rolling step to a high temperature exceeding 600 ° C and 750 ° C or lower. In order to control the average particle diameter and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase of the steel sheet after cold rolling, in addition to optimizing the rolling conditions of the hot rolled sheet, it is also necessary to limit the rolling reduction ratio of the cold rolling.

The cold-rolled steel sheet according to the present invention is extremely suitable as a material for automotive parts, particularly for driving parts such as plates or discs.

First, the reason for limiting the component composition of the cold-rolled steel sheet of the present invention will be described. The % of the unit of the content of each component element means the meaning of mass% unless otherwise specified.

C: 0.01% or more and 0.08% or less

C is an element required for strengthening the steel sheet, and it is necessary to set the C content to 0.01% or more in order to obtain the hardness required as a raw material for a drive component such as a plate or a disk. On the other hand, when the C content is more than 0.08%, the hardness becomes too high, and the iron content of the wave is increased, the flatness after the pressing is deteriorated, and the end surface properties of the press are deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit of the C content is set to 0.08%. In particular, from the viewpoint of punching the end face properties, the C content is preferably made less than 0.05%. More preferably, it is 0.04% or less.

Si: 0.01% or more and 1.0% or less

Si is a deoxidizer of steel, and has an effect of improving the cleanliness of steel, so the content is made 0.01% or more. Si is also an element which improves the hardness of a steel sheet by solid solution hardening, and can add this element in order to obtain a desired hardness. However, when the Si content exceeds 1.0%, the surface quality of the steel sheet deteriorates, so the upper limit of the Si content is made 1.0%. In particular, since the sheet used in the friction-generating part requires a good surface property, it is preferably set to 0.6% or less.

Mn: 0.05% or more and 1.0% or less

Mn is an element which improves the hardness of the steel sheet by solid solution strengthening, and it is necessary to set the Mn content to 0.05% or more in order to obtain a desired hardness. It is preferably 0.1% or more. When the Mn content is more than 1.0%, the pulverized iron or the toughened iron or the like is excessively formed, and the pulverized iron or the like is formed in a layered manner due to segregation, and the end surface properties of the press are deteriorated. Therefore, the Mn content is set to 1.0% or less. It is preferably 0.5% or less.

P: 0.03% or less

P is an element that is easily segregated in steel, and if it is contained in a large amount, it is segregated by P. The formation of the layered structure is promoted, so that the stamping end face property is deteriorated. Therefore, the P content needs to be set to 0.03% or less. It is preferably 0.02% or less.

S: 0.015% or less

S forms a sulfide-based intermediate such as MnS, and deteriorates the stamping end surface property. Therefore, the S content needs to be set to 0.015% or less. It is preferably 0.010% or less.

Al: 0.005% or more and 0.10% or less

Al is added as a deoxidizing element, whereby the cleanliness of the steel sheet can be improved, so the content thereof needs to be 0.005% or more. It is preferably 0.03% or more. On the other hand, when the Al content exceeds 0.10%, an oxide is excessively formed and the surface properties are deteriorated, and the adhesion to the friction material is deteriorated. Therefore, the Al content is set to 0.10% or less. It is preferably 0.08% or less.

N: 0.01% or less

N is a harmful element in the present invention, and if the content is excessive, the ductility of the steel sheet is lowered, and the properties of the punched end face are deteriorated. Therefore, the N content is set to 0.01% or less. It is preferably 0.006% or less.

On the other hand, when the content of these elements is excessive, surface segregation becomes remarkable, and the surface properties of the steel sheet deteriorate and the adhesion to the friction material is lowered. Therefore, the Sb content is preferably made 0.030% or less. The Sn content is set to 0.030% or less. More preferably, the Sb content is made 0.005% or more and 0.020% or less, and the Sn content is made 0.005% or more and 0.015% or less.

The rest of the above components are Fe and unavoidable impurities. Examples of the unavoidable impurities include O, Mg, Co, Zn, Ta, W, Pb, and Bi, and the content of these elements is acceptable as long as they are each about 0.01% or less.

Next, the structure of the cold rolled steel sheet of the present invention will be described.

The cold-rolled steel sheet according to the present invention has a structure in which the area ratio of the ferrite-grained iron phase is 80% or more, and the area ratio of the hard phase including at least one of the ferrite phase and the toughened iron phase is 20% or less. The average particle diameter of the hard phase is 1 μm or more and 10 μm or less, and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase is 10.0 or less.

In the present invention, the residual stress in the cold-rolled steel sheet is lowered by making the deformation in the steel sheet during cold rolling uniform. From the above point of view, the cold-rolled steel sheet of the present invention needs to have the main phase as a soft ferrite-grained iron phase and suppress the hard corrugated iron phase and the toughened iron phase. When the hard phase including any one or more of the ferrite phase and the toughened iron phase is more than 20% in total area ratio, the residual stress after cold rolling increases, and the shape of the steel sheet after the press is deteriorated. At the time of pressing, a crack is generated at the interface between the ferrite grain iron phase and the hard phase, and the stamping end surface property of the steel sheet is deteriorated. Further, since the heat-resistant strain characteristics are deteriorated due to an increase in the residual stress, after the cold-rolled steel sheet is press-formed, thermal strain is generated when exposed to a high-temperature environment.

For the above reasons, in the present invention, the area ratio of the ferrite-grain iron phase needs to be 80% or more, and the area ratio of the hard phase including at least one of the ferrite phase and the toughened iron phase is set to 20 %the following. The area ratio of the ferrite iron phase is preferably set to 85% or more, more preferably 90% or more. On the other hand, the area ratio of the hard phase is preferably 15% or less in total, more preferably 10% or less.

However, if the area ratio of the hard phase is extremely low, the required hardness of the steel sheet cannot be obtained, and therefore the area ratio of the hard phase is preferably 2% or more in total. Further, as the cold-rolled steel sheet structure of the present invention, in addition to the ferrite phase, the Borne iron phase, In addition to the toughened iron phase, it can also contain ferritic carbon iron. The area ratio of Xueming carbon iron is preferably set to 1% or less.

Further, the cold-rolled steel sheet according to the present invention has a structure in which the average particle diameter of the hard phase including at least one of the ferrite phase and the toughened iron phase is 1 μm or more and 10 μm or less, and the average of the hard phases is The aspect ratio is 10.0 or less. Further, the method of determining the average particle diameter and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase is described in Examples to be described later.

When the average particle diameter of the hard phase exceeds 10 μm, cracks generated at the interface between the hard phase and the ferrite phase are largely propagated, and the end surface of the steel sheet is damaged, and the end surface property is lowered. Therefore, the average particle diameter of the hard phase is set to 10 μm or less. It is preferably 7 μm or less. The smaller the average particle diameter of the hard phase, the better from the viewpoint of the punchability of the steel sheet. However, in order to reduce the average particle diameter of the hard phase, it is necessary to lower the finish rolling finishing temperature and the winding temperature of the hot rolling at the time of manufacture of the steel sheet. On the other hand, in order to obtain the structure in which the ferrite-grained iron phase is the main phase of the present invention, it is necessary to set the finish rolling finishing temperature and the winding temperature of the hot rolling to a predetermined temperature or higher as described later, and to be in the range of the hot rolling conditions. There is a limit to the refinement of crystal grains in the inner hard phase. Therefore, the average particle diameter of the hard phase is set to 1 μm or more.

Further, when the average aspect ratio of the hard phase exceeds 10.0, the strain at the interface between the hard phase and the ferrite-grained iron phase as the main phase increases, and the residual stress increases, so that the heat-resistant strain characteristics of the cold-rolled steel sheet are lowered. Therefore, the average aspect ratio of the hard phase is set to be 10.0 or less. It is preferably 8.0 or less.

The hardness of the cold-rolled steel sheet of the present invention is 170 or more in terms of Hv (Vickers hardness). If the hardness of the steel plate is less than Hv170, the strength is insufficient and cannot withstand It is used for plates, discs and rings of automotive drive system parts. Therefore, the hardness of the cold rolled steel sheet is set to Hv170 or more. It is preferably Hv190 or more. On the other hand, the hardness of the cold-rolled steel sheet according to the present invention is mainly based on work hardening of cold rolling. Therefore, if the hardness is too high (that is, if the rolling reduction ratio of the cold rolling is too high), the residual stress of the steel sheet also increases. Thereby the heat resistant strain characteristics are deteriorated. Therefore, the hardness of the cold rolled steel sheet is preferably set to Hv 250 or less.

Next, a method of producing the cold-rolled steel sheet of the present invention will be described.

The cold-rolled steel sheet according to the present invention is obtained by subjecting a steel material having the above chemical composition to hot rolling to form a hot-rolled sheet having a ferrite-grained iron phase as a main phase, and removing the scale by pickling. The rolling reduction rate is cold rolling the hot rolled sheet.

The method for producing the steel raw material is not particularly limited. For example, the molten steel having the above composition is melted in a converter or an electric furnace, preferably secondary smelting by a vacuum degassing furnace, and a steel such as a slab is formed by a manufacturing method such as continuous casting. Common methods for raw materials can be applied.

Next, hot rolling including rough rolling and finish rolling is performed on the steel raw material to form a hot rolled sheet. In the case of performing hot rolling, the steel raw material may be subjected to direct rolling, which is hot rolling immediately after casting, or after heating for the purpose of supplementing heat after casting, and then hot rolling. When the steel material is heated before hot rolling, the heating temperature is not particularly limited, but is preferably set to a temperature in the range of 1000 ° C or more and 1300 ° C or less. When the heating temperature is less than 1000 ° C, the deformation resistance is increased, and a good shape cannot be obtained. On the other hand, if When the temperature is higher than 1300 ° C, the growth of the scale is promoted, and the surface properties of the steel sheet are lowered. Further, the conditions of the rough rolling are not particularly limited.

Finishing finish temperature: 800 ° C or more, 950 ° C or less

When the finishing rolling temperature exceeds 950 ° C, the structure of the hot rolled sheet is coarsened. As a result, the average particle diameter of the hard phase of the steel sheet after cold rolling increases, and the end surface properties of the press are deteriorated. On the other hand, when the finishing rolling temperature is less than 800 ° C, the structure of the hot-rolled sheet becomes a structure containing extremely extended crystal grains, and the aspect ratio of the hard phase also increases. When the steel sheet having the hard phase extending in the rolling direction at the stage of the hot-rolled sheet is further cold-rolled, the hardness difference between the hard phase and the ferrite-grain phase as the main phase is large, and thus the structure is elongated in the rolling direction. At the time, a large residual stress is generated at the interface between the hard phase and the ferrite phase iron phase as the main phase. Therefore, the residual stress accumulated in the steel sheet after cold rolling increases, and thermal strain is likely to occur. Therefore, the finish rolling finishing temperature is set to 800 ° C or more and 950 ° C or less. It is preferably 850 ° C or higher and 920 ° C or lower.

Winding temperature: over 600 ° C and below 750 ° C

When the winding temperature is 600 ° C or less, a corrugated iron phase or a tough iron phase is excessively generated, and the target steel sheet structure mainly composed of the ferrite-grained iron phase cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the winding temperature exceeds 750 ° C, the ferrite phase or the ferritic carbon iron particles are coarsened, and the press end surface properties of the steel sheet are deteriorated, or the surface properties of the steel sheet are deteriorated. Therefore, the winding temperature is set to exceed 600 ° C and 750 ° C or less. It is preferably 620 ° C or more and 700 ° C or less.

The cooling rate at the time of cooling to the winding temperature after completion of the finish rolling is not particularly limited, but the hot-rolled sheet and the finally obtained cold-rolled steel sheet are required. The structure preferably has an average cooling rate in a temperature range from the finish rolling finishing temperature to the winding temperature of 10 ° C/s or more and less than 120 ° C/s. More preferably, it is 15 ° C / s or more and 50 ° C / s or less.

The hot-rolled sheet obtained as described above is subjected to cold rolling after pickling by pickling, thereby forming a cold-rolled steel sheet.

Cold rolling reduction rate: 30% or more, 70% or less

In order to obtain the hardness of the steel sheet required for the material for the drive component such as a plate by cold rolling, it is necessary to set the rolling reduction ratio to 30% or more. On the other hand, when the rolling reduction ratio exceeds 70%, the residual stress increases, and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase including the ferrite and/or the toughened iron phase exceeds a predetermined value, and thermal strain is likely to occur. Therefore, the rolling reduction ratio of cold rolling is set to 30% or more and 70% or less. It is preferably 40% or more and 60% or less.

In the present invention, from the viewpoint of the correction of the shape of the steel sheet and the adjustment of the residual stress, it is also possible to perform temper rolling or a leveler after cold rolling. From the viewpoint of adjusting the residual stress, it is preferable to carry out the temper rolling delay and set the elongation to 0.3% or more. More preferably, it is 0.4% or more. However, from the viewpoint of the flatness of the steel sheet after the temper rolling, it is preferably 1.0% or less.

Then, after the scale was removed by pickling, cold rolling was performed at the rolling reduction ratio shown in Table 2 to form a cold rolled steel sheet. The shape correction is performed on a part of the cold-rolled steel sheet by a leveling machine or a temper rolling.

A test piece was taken from the obtained cold-rolled steel sheet, and the structure observation was performed according to the method shown below, and the area ratio of the ferrite grain iron phase, the waved iron phase, the toughened iron phase, and the hard phase (waved iron phase) were determined.

Quantitative. The particle size is set to the square root of the value obtained by multiplying the major axis length a of the crystal grain by the minor axis length b ( ). The aspect ratio is a value (a/b) obtained by dividing the major axis length a of the crystal grain by the minor axis length b. The average particle diameter and the average aspect ratio of the hard phase are, in image processing, the arithmetic mean of the particle diameter and aspect ratio of all crystal grains identified as either of the ferrite phase or the toughened iron phase.
