  • the steel sheet After hot rolling, the steel sheet is pickled according to the common procedure as necessary, and then cold-rolled.
  • a reduction rate is preferably 15% or more. To obtain the reduction rate of less than 15%, the steel sheet must be reduced in thickness in a hot rolling process, and when the steel sheet is reduced in thickness in the hot rolling process, the steel sheet is increased in length, therefore much time is required for pickling, leading to reduction in productivity.
  • the steel sheet After cold rolling, it is enough that the steel sheet is heated and held in a ferrite-austenite dual phase region or an austenite single phase region at the Ac1 point or more in a continuous annealing line or a continuous galvanizing line for soaking.

  • the average cooling rate is preferably 5° C./sec or more. While the upper limit of the average cooling rate is not particularly specified, it is preferably about 50° C./sec in consideration of ease in control of steel sheet temperature, or facility cost.
  • a composition of the plating bath is not particularly limited, and a known galvanizing bath can be used.
  • the Al content in the plating bath is preferably 0.05 to 0.2%.
  • Al is an element that operates to control an alloying rate of a galvanizing layer.
  • a steel sheet is dipped into a galvanizing bath containing Al, a Fe—Al alloy layer is formed on a surface of the steel sheet (that is, an interface between the steel sheet and the galvanizing layer), consequently the steel sheet and zinc can be prevented from being immediately alloyed with each other.
  • the Al content of less than 0.05% since the Fe—Al alloy layer is extremely thin, when the steel sheet is dipped in the plating bath, the steel sheet and zinc tend to be alloyed promptly.
  • the Al content is more preferably 0.07% or more.
  • the Al content exceeds 0.2%, since the Fe—Al alloy layer becomes excessively large in thickness, alloying between Fe and Zn is inhibited in the alloying process, resulting in delay in alloying of the galvanizing layer. Therefore, it is necessary that an alloying line is lengthened, or alloying at high temperature is separately performed in order to advance alloying.
  • the Al content is more preferably 0.18% or less.
  • the steel sheet After galvanizing, the steel sheet is cooled to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 1° C./sec or more, thereby austenite in the steel sheet is transformed to martensite, and consequently a mixed structure mainly including ferrite and martensite can be obtained.
  • a cooling rate of less than 1° C./sec martensite is hardly formed, and pearlite or the intermediately-transformed structure may be formed.
  • the average cooling rate is preferably 10° C./sec or more.
  • an alloyed, high strength galvanized steel sheet being formed by forming an alloyed galvanizing layer on a surface of the high strength steel sheet, it is enough that the steel sheet is subjected to galvanizing at the above condition, then heated to about 400 to 750° C. (preferably, about 500 to 600° C.) for alloying.
  • a heating method is not particularly limited, and various kinds of usual methods (for example, gas heating and induction heater heating) can be utilized.
  • the steel sheet After alloying, the steel sheet is cooled to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 1° C./sec or more, thereby a mixed structure mainly including ferrite and martensite can be obtained.
  • Ranges of the Si content were calculated using the formula (1) from the chemical compositions of steel sheets shown in Table 1 or 2. Results are shown in the following Table 1 or 2. Moreover, values of subtracting the ⁇ value from values of the Si content in steel (([Si] ⁇ ), provided, [Si] shows the Si content in steel) are collectively shown in the following Table 1 or 2.
  • the obtained cold-rolled steel sheets were subjected to the following treatment in an annealing line or a continuous galvanizing line, consequently soaked cold-rolled steel sheets, galvanized steel sheets, or alloyed, galvanized steel sheets were obtained.
  • Nos. 1 to 6 shown in the following Table 3 show the soaked cold-rolled steel sheets, in which the above cold-rolled steel sheets were heated to 830° C. in the annealing line, and held for 30 sec at the temperature for soaking, then cooled to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 15° C./sec.
  • Nos. 7 to 11 and No. 14 shown in the following Table 3 show the galvanized steel sheets, in which the above cold-rolled steel sheets were heated to 830° C. in a continuous galvanizing line, and held for 30 sec at the temperature for soaking, then cooled to a plating bath temperature at an average cooling rate of 15° C./sec, and then dipped in a plating bath for 3 sec to form galvanizing layers on surfaces of the cold-rolled steel sheets.
  • a galvanizing bath having Al content of 0.13% was used, and the plating bath temperature was 450 to 470° C. After plating, the steel sheets were cooled to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 10° C./sec.
  • Nos. 12 to 13 shown in the following Table 3 also show the galvanized steel sheets, in which galvanizing layers were formed on surfaces of the cold-rolled steel sheets at the same condition as in the No. 7, then the steel sheets were cooled at an average cooling rate of 30° C./sec in a temperature region from the plating bath temperature to 300° C., and cooled from 300° C. to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 10° C./sec.
  • Nos. 15 to 24 and Nos. 28 to 36 shown in the following Table 4 show the alloyed, galvanized steel sheets, in which galvanizing layers were formed on surfaces of the cold-rolled steel sheets at the same condition as in the No. 7, then heated to 540 to 560° C., and then held for about 10 sec at the temperature for alloying so that alloyed, galvanizing layers were formed on surfaces of the cold-rolled steel sheets. After alloying, the steel sheets were cooled to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 10° C./sec.
  • Nos. 25 to 27 shown in the following Table 4 also show the alloyed, galvanized steel sheets, in which galvanizing layers were formed at the same condition as in the No. 15, then the steel sheets were cooled at an average cooling rate of 30° C./sec in a temperature region from 500° C. to 300° C., and cooled from 300° C. to the normal temperature at an average cooling rate of 10° C./sec.
  • JIS 5 test pieces were cut out from the obtained cold-rolled steel sheets after soaking, galvanized steel sheets, and alloyed, galvanized steel sheets, and tensile tests were performed to measure tensile strength (TS) and elongation (El). Results are shown in the following Table 3 or 4. It was assumed that TS being within a range of not less than 590 MPa and less than 1270 MPa was acceptable, and TS being without the range was not acceptable.
  • TS ⁇ El was calculated to evaluate balance between strength and ductility. Results are shown in the following Tables 2 and 3. It was assumed that a steel sheet having elongation (El) of 20% or more was acceptable for a steel sheet having strength in a class of 590 MPa (not less than 590 MPa and less than 780 MPa), a steel sheet having elongation (El) of 28% or more was acceptable for a steel sheet having strength in a class of 780 MPa (not less than 780 MPa and less than 980 MPa), a steel sheet having elongation (El) of 15% or more was acceptable for a steel sheet having strength in a class of 980 MPa (not less than 980 MPa and less than 1180 MPa), and a steel sheet having elongation (El) of 9% or more was acceptable for a steel sheet having strength in a class of 1180 MPa (not less than 1180 MPa and less than 1270 MPa).

  • No. 20 (steel type A16) and No. 34 (steel type C4) in Table 4 are examples where chemical compositions of them are approximately the same except for Si, and when they are compared to each other, while No. 34 has a high fraction of the intermediately-transformed structure in the second phase because the Si content is low, No. 20 has a low fraction of the intermediately-transformed structure in the second phase because the Si content is high. Therefore, while they are in approximately the same level of strength, they are different in elongation, and No. 20 is more excellent in mechanical properties (balance between strength and elongation).
  • Nos. 28 to 32 in Table 4 are examples where chemical compositions are out of the range specified by an embodiment of the invention, wherein balance between strength and ductility is bad.
  • No. 28 (steel type B1), which is an example of low C content, can not ensure sufficient strength.
  • Si scales are produced on a surface of the steel sheet and thus surface properties are deteriorated, resulting in deterioration in coatability.
  • No. 30 (steel type B3), which is an example of low Mn content, is low in strength because of decreased quantity of dissolved Mn.
  • elongation (El) is reduced since part of the second phase is formed as the intermediately-transformed structure.
  • No. 31 which is an example of high Mn content, is high in strength, but low in elongation.
  • No. 32 (steel type B5), which is an example of high Ti content, is sufficient in strength, but significantly reduced in local elongation since large quantity of carbides are precipitated in grain boundaries.
