  • This invention relates to a method of making a drawing steel sheet by continuous annealing process including novel shelf treatment therein, and more particularly making drawing steel sheet with very high productivity.
  • This art was developed .to give drawability of some degree to a galvanized steel strip.
  • the features of the above art lie in quenching from the range of about 1,250F and l,300F to below l,000F, following by holding at said annealing temperature for 30 seconds and then holding for at least 30 seconds in the shelf temperature range of 800 to 1,000F. With such a process, the steel sheet becomes softer than that from the ordinary continuous annealing process. According to our experiments, it has been confirmed that the softness and aging resistance, so far attained, are not yet sufficient.
  • the shelf treatment as mentioned above should be further improved if the steel is subjected to press-forming services.
  • productivity based on the above art is inferior to that of an ordinary continuous annealing operation.
  • the steel treated by the above art can be subjected to press-forming services only with difficulty.
  • a steel which can be subjected to ordinary press-forming services is not yet available.
  • This invention has been developed to remove the above-mentioned faults and disadvantages.
  • the featurcs of this invention consist in heating the cold reduced steel up to the range of recrystallization temperature to 850C, cooling slowly from said temperature to the range of less than A, point to 600C and then cooling rapidly at the rate of 200C/sec and l0,000C/sec to the normal temperature, and again heating the steel up to the range of 300 to 530C and holding for at least seconds.
  • the Further object of this invention is to provide a method of making a drawing steel sheet by a continuous annealing process displaying very high productivity, accordingly, low cost.
  • FIG. 1 is an example of typical annealing cycle of this invention
  • FIG. 2 shows an annealing cycle based on this invention in comparison with other cycles
  • FIG. 3 is a graph showing the relation between yield stress and carbon content in steel
  • FIG. 4 is a graph showing the relation between aging index and carbon content in steel
  • FIG. 5 illustrates changing behavior of aging index and yield stress with various velocities.
  • T, T T and T points on the time-temperature diagram of FIG. 1 show the maximum heating temperature, rapid-cooling starting temperature, the maximum heating temperature for the precipitation treatment and finishing temperature of said precipitation treatment respectively.
  • Said T, point is the maximum heating temperature and is selected from the range of recrystallization temperature to 850C.
  • T point is the rapid-cooling starting temperature and is selected from the range of A, point to 600C. In such a case, when said T, point is more than 850C, the heating will be difficult to be carried out with the ordinary continuous annealing facilities.
  • the heating is fully within the region of austenization, consequently the lowering of known Lankford Value r will be brought about. Therefore, the upper limit of said heating temperature is 850C.
  • T point is more than A, point, a known tempering structure is produced partially because of the rapid-cooling and successive precipitation treatment, consequently a harmful influence on ductility of steel tends to occur, while the rapid-cooling from less than 600C results in causing the amount of solution carbon to decrease.
  • said rapid-cooling starting temperature should be selected from the range of A, point and 600C.
  • the steel strip is cooled slowly from said T, point to T point. And the slow-cooling time should be sufficient to bring a solution of carbon in equilibrium state.
  • the slowly cooled steel to said T point is rapidly cooled from the temperature to the normal temperature.
  • Such rapid-cooling operation is carried out to increase the amount of super-saturated carbon and number of precipitating nuclei with a velocity of 200C/sec and l0,000C/sec, which is a desirable requirement for the next rapid precipitation treatment of the carbide.
  • said steel is heated up to T point.
  • Said T,, point is the maximum heating temperature for precipitation treatment of carbide and is selected from the range of 300 to 530C.
  • T, point is a finishing temperature of said precipitation treatment.
  • Such T point is the same temperature as said T point, i.e., a holding operation, or lower temperature than said T point, i.e., slow cooling operation.
  • said operation time from T to T should be for at least 10 seconds.
  • T and T points are limited as mentioned above is as follows: that is, when said treating temperature is above 530C, the solution degree of carbon tends to increase, and conversely when said temperature is below 300C, said precipitating velocity EXAMPLE 1 Making requirements:
  • the above-mentioned shelf treatment carried out at a temperature between 300C and 530C may secure the same degree of aging index as that of an ordinary batch type annealing process, it will be, however, recommended that the starting temperature of said precipitation treatment is 350C to 450C (T and the finishing temperature is 300C (T).
  • T the starting temperature of said precipitation treatment
  • 300C the finishing temperature
  • this process is characterised by having the solution carbon brought in the equilibrium state during slow-cooling from T, point to T point, supersaturated during rapid-cooling from T point to the normal temperature and precipitated as carbide during successive shelf treatment from T;, point to T point.
  • Chemical composition of the present steel will not be especially specified except carbon content, which is from no less than 0.02 percent to no more than 0.10 percent.
  • the reason that only the carbon content is limited as mentioned above is as follows; when C content is less than 0.02 percent, said aging index does not lower as much as expected because of a small amount of supersaturated carbon after said rapid-cooling, and when C content is more than 0.10 percent, said steel is too hard and unsuitable for press-forming operation.
  • the annealing process of this invention may be included in the process of ordinary cold reducing steel strip which is a serial process comprising steel making, slabbing or continuous casting, hot rolling, picking and cold reducing. However, when a steel exhibiting lower,
  • said steel should be coiled at a temperature of more than about 630 C following the hot rolling step. It is confirmed that the high temperature coiling step causes crystal Steel of making slabbing hot rolling finishing temperature: 865C coiling temperature: 600C last thickness: 2.8mm Cold reducing after pickling cold reducing rate: 71.4 percent last thickness: 0.8mm Continuous annealing cycle: A, B, C, D and E cycles as shown in FIG. 2
  • next air-cooling cycle B This is a cycle based on this invention.
  • said yield stress of the steels treated with said cycle B lowers by about 2Kg/mm and said aging index lowers by about 0.5Kg/mm in comparison with that of cycle A.
  • the properties of steels treated with said cycles C and D are superior to those of said A and inferior to those of said cycle B.
  • this invention process is cooled slowly from the maximum heating-up temperature to rapid-cooling starting temperature in the range of A, point to 600C, cooled rapidly from said starting temperature to the normal temperature and then cooled slowly the maximum reheating-up temperature to finishing temperature of said shelf treatment.
  • EXAMPLE III Steel V among steels of the above Table l is tested.
  • the object of this test lies in investingating influences to which a cooling rate of from said soaking temperature, i.e., T point, to the normal temperature gives said properties of the steel.
  • T point a cooling rate of from said soaking temperature
  • the hot rolling and cold reducing requirements on the above steel are the same as that of Example ll. But continuous annealing process was carried out depending upon said Cycle A as shown in Example I. That is;
  • a method of making a drawing steel sheet comprising the following steps:
  • shelf-treating in which said strip is reheated up to the range of 300C and 530C, successively cooled slowly from said temperature to at least 300C,
  • a method of making a drawing steel sheet as set forth in claim 1 wherein said continuous annealing is carried out with which said strip is heated up at about 800C, cooled slowly to about 650C by the rate of 5C/sec and then cooled rapidly from said temperature to the normal temperature by about 600C/sec and in successive shelf treatment said strip is heated up to 530C and 500C and then cooled slowly to 300C by the rate of about 12C/sec, next air-cooled.
