Definitions

  • the present invention relates to medium manganese steels with excellent strength-ductility combination, and a method of manufacturing the same.
  • the invention relates to medium manganese steels having a product of ultimate tensile strength (R m ) and total elongation (A80), i.e. R m x A80, up to 50 GPa %.
  • Hot-dip galvanized (HDG) or galvannealed advanced high strength steel (AHSS) products with ultimate tensile strength extending from 500 to 1800 MPa are desired due to the advantages of lightweight and high strength-ductility combination which allow for considerable reduction in automobile body weight without compromising safety requirements.
  • the AHSS grades can be used to make safety relevant body in white (BIW) components such as side impact protection beams in which characteristics such as capacity for energy absorption and anti-intrusion are needed in the event of a crash.
  • the ability to absorb energy subject to loading is an essential factor to improve the impact safety of the automotive vehicles.
  • the product of ultimate tensile strength (R m ) and total elongation (A), i.e., R m x A, is an index of the ability to absorb impact energy. The higher the value of R m x A, the better ability to absorb impact energy is.
  • the AHSS grades are divided into three generations according to the values of R m x A.
  • the R m x A is typically 10 - 25 GPa % for the first- generation AHSS including dual phase (DP) and transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) multiphase steels.
  • the TRIP steels contain retained austenite that transforms into martensite during straining, giving the steel a combination of strength and ductility. Steels with high volume fraction of austenite have also improved wear and abrasion resistance.
  • the R m x A is typically above 50 GPa % for the second- generation AHSS which is mainly represented by the high manganese twinning induced plasticity (TWIP) steels.
  • TWIP manganese is well known for stabilizing austenite and is therefore alloyed to produce steels with metastable retained austenite.
  • the TWIP steels with a fully austenitic microstructure comprise manganese in the range of 15 - 25 wt. %, which inevitably results in high alloying costs and a challenging production process.
  • the third generation AHSS is a group of medium manganese steels with Mn contents typically in the range of 3 - 10 wt. % filling the gap between the first and second generation AHSS and exhibits R m x A in the range of 25 - 50 GPa %.
  • the transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) phenomenon is described as the mechanically induced martensitic transformation of metastable retained austenite. This phenomenon is important in applications where energy absorption is required, such as in vehicle crash situations. Upon straining the fraction of retained austenite in the microstructure activates the TRIP phenomenon during plastic deformation by transforming into martensite. When the thermal driving force, i.e. free energy for martensite transformation is insufficient, an externally applied force can complement and trigger the transformation. The TRIP phenomenon is activated even at high deformation rates as martensite formation occurs at a rapid rate. In the absence of a competing phase transformation, retained austenite will remain in the metastable state.
  • Q&P quenching and partitioning
  • the formation of ferrite and/or pearlite during quenching should be avoided; ii. the bainite formation should be inhibited or retarded so that the partitioning of carbon is maximized; iii. the carbide precipitation should be inhibited or retarded so that carbon is available for partitioning to austenite; iv. the carbon content of the steel should be optimized for thermal stabilization of desired fraction of retained austenite.
  • conventional Q&P steels contain maximum 3 wt. % Mn which is less than medium manganese steels.
  • medium manganese alloying involves technological and economical challenges.
  • the stability of austenite increases by i. increasing carbon and alloying element (e.g. Mn) content; ii. reducing the austenite grain size; iii. segregation of austenite stabilizing elements to austenite during intercritical annealing.
  • carbon and alloying element e.g. Mn
  • Austenite Reverted Transformation (ART) annealing is a two-step heat treatment for medium manganese steels.
  • the ART annealing enables the production of steels with ultra- fine intercritical ferrite (IF), metastable retained austenite and precipitated phases.
  • the ultra-fine intercritical ferrite (IF) is also known as high-temperature tempered martensite.
  • the first step of the two-step heat treatment - “austenitization” - includes complete or partial austenitization followed by quenching to room temperature, resulting in a martensitic microstructure.
  • the second step - “intercritical annealing” - reverts martensite to austenite y), after which the steel is quenched and in some cases also tempered.
  • the reversion y) in the two-phase region of the initial lath martensitic microstructure allows alloying elements, such as carbon and manganese, to redistribute between intercritical ferrite (IF) and reverted austenite. It was found that carbon and substantially manganese enrichment within the volume fraction of retained austenite contribute to the chemical stabilization of retained austenite.
  • the present invention is intended to develop a relatively low-alloy third generation AHSS product that has excellent combination of high strength and ductility.
  • the present invention is further intended to develop a method of manufacturing the third generation AHSS product in a continuous industrial line.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve the problem of providing a medium manganese steel product with a high volume fraction of retained austenite and an improved value of R m x A80.

  • steel is defined as an iron alloy containing carbon (C).
  • the cold-rolling step is always preceded by a step of hot-rolling the sheet.
  • Al is used to denote the eutectoid temperature at which austenite begins to form during heating or transformation of austenite to ferrite (plus cementite) is completed during cooling, where lower indices “c”, “r” and “e” denote to heating, cooling and equilibrium, respectively.
  • a 3 is used to denote the temperature at which transformation of ferrite to austenite is completed during heating or austenite begins to transform to ferrite during cooling, where lower indices “c”, “r” and “e” denote to heating, cooling and equilibrium, respectively.
  • M s is used to denote the temperature at which austenite begins to transform to martensite during cooling.
  • HAZ heat-affected zone
  • total elongation refers to the percentage by which the material can be stretched before it breaks; a rough indicator of formability, usually expressed as a percentage over a fixed gauge length of the measuring extensometer. Two common gauge lengths are 50 mm (A50) and 80 mm (A80).
  • yield strength (YS, R p 0.2) refers to 0.2 % offset yield strength defined as the amount of stress that will result in a plastic strain of 0.2 %.
  • Alloying elements have various effects on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a steel product. Thus, alloy design is one of the first issues to be considered when developing a steel product with targeted mechanical properties. Alloying elements also affect the cost, processability, recyclability, weldability and coatability of steel, all of which are requirements set by the automotive industry.
  • Alloying elements can affect the transformation temperatures such as Ai, A 3 and M s .
  • % of each alloying element refers to weight percentage (wt. %).
  • the total alloying content other than iron (Fe) is in the range of 6 wt. % to 8 wt. %.
  • Carbon C is used in the range of 0.05 % to 0.30 %.
  • C alloying increases strength of steel by solid solution strengthening, and hence C content determines the strength level. C content less than 0.05 % may lead to insufficient strength. C depresses pearlitic transformation. C also functions as an austenite stabilizer and the austenite fraction increases by the diffusion of C into the austenite phase. C decreases A thereby delaying transformation of austenite, which inhibits the formation of ferritic-pearlitic microstructures.
  • C content is set to not more than 0.30 %.
  • Manganese Mn is used in the range of 0.9 % to 6.0 %.
  • Mn is a substitutional element in the iron lattice and acts thus as a solid solution strengthener. There seems to be a rough relation between higher Mn and higher strength level. Mn increases hardenability and hardness of steel and decreases the brittleness by binding to sulfur and forming MnS. Mn is a weak carbide former but a strong sulphide and oxide former. Mn depresses pearlitic transformation.
  • Mn is alloyed to stabilize austenite to room temperature, i.e. the stability of austenite increases by the diffusion of Mn into the austenite phase. In addition, Mn decreases the M s temperature thereby delaying transformation of austenite to form martensite.
  • Mn segregates during solidification and causes concentration gradients i.e. Mn-rich and Mn-poor regions in the microstructure.
  • Mn stabilizes austenite a larger fraction of other phases than austenite is formed in the Mn-poor regions during quenching.
  • manganese lowers the chemical potential of carbon in austenite meaning that carbon diffuses from Mn-poor regions to Mn-rich regions. Consequently, austenite in Mn-rich regions receives more of stabilizing carbon during partitioning. If the carbon partitioning of austenite has been insufficient, fresh martensite forms in the Mn-rich regions during final quenching.
  • Mn is used in the range of 2.5 % to 6.0 %.
  • the steel sheet product according to the present invention has a Mn content of £ 10 wt. %, and more preferably in the range of 5 wt. % to 10 wt. %, within the retained austenite microstructure.
  • Silicon Si is used in the range of 5 % or less. Si is effective as a deoxidizing or killing agent that can remove oxygen from the melt during a steelmaking process. Si alloying enhances strength by solid solution strengthening, and enhances hardness by increasing austenite hardenability. Also the presence of Si can stabilize retained austenite. Si is an effective cementite suppressor and does not form carbides. Si increases the A3 temperature of steel, meaning that the austenitization temperature increases. The presence of Si enhances stabilization of retained austenite by suppressing the formation of carbon-consuming cementite. However, austenite in Si- containing steels can decompose to carbide-free bainitic ferrite interwoven with retained austenite.
  • a Si content of higher than 5 % may pose problems during galvanizing operations, as Si may react with iron oxide and forms fayalite on the hot-rolled steel surface which is difficult to remove in a pickling treatment. The rolls pick up the fayalite causing indentations on the surface of the sheet metal. Furthermore, excessive content of Si unnecessarily increases carbon equivalent (CE) value thereby weakening the weldability. Silicon also promotes pearlitic transformation. In addition, Si reduces wettability of molten Zn during galvanizing.
  • CE carbon equivalent
  • Si is preferably used in the amount of 2 % or less, and more preferably in the range of 0.1 % to 1.5 %.
  • Aluminum Al is used in the range of 3 % or less.
  • Al is effective as a deoxidizing or killing agent that can remove oxygen from the melt during a steelmaking process.
  • Al increases solid solution strength and hardness.
  • Al also removes nitrogen N by forming stable AIN particles and provides grain refinement, which effects promote high toughness.
  • Aluminum is preferentially oxidized internally, thereby improving the galvanizability of the steel.
  • Al increases the A3 temperature of steel thereby increasing the austenitization temperature.
  • Al is an effective cementite suppressor and does not form carbides. Al stabilizes ferrite and depresses pearlitic transformation.
  • Al inhibits the carbon-consuming cementite precipitation thereby promoting the carbon enrichment of austenite.
  • the stability of austenite is determined by the balance of C and Mn partitioned to austenite and the stabilizing effect of C is more dominant.
  • the presence of Al can stabilize retained austenite.
  • Al alloying also allows wider processing windows for the annealing temperature for obtaining near maximum fractions of retained austenite.
  • Al is used in the range of 0.01 % to 2.5 %.
  • Nickel Ni is used in the range of 2 % or less.
  • Ni is an alloying element that decreases Aci thereby delaying transformation of austenite, which inhibits the formation of ferritic-pearlitic microstructures. Ni improves austenite hardenability thereby increasing strength without any loss of toughness.
  • Ni may produce high viscosity iron oxide scales which deteriorate surface quality of the steel product.
  • Higher Ni contents also have negative impacts on weldability due to increased CE value and cracking sensitivity coefficient.
  • Ni is used in the range of £1.6%.
  • Elevated Mn levels may cause excessive surface oxidation, which may interfere with the hot-dip galvanizing and galvannealing processes. In some embodiments, it may be therefore beneficial to replace some of the Mn with Ni.
  • the combined levels of Mn and Ni may be: Mn+Ni > 3.0, and preferably Mn+Ni > 3.5.
  • Chromium Cr is used in the range of 0.8 % or less.
  • Cr increases Aci, but decreases Ac3. Cr alloying enhances strength and hardness by increasing austenite hardenability. Cr forms mid-strength carbides and increases the strength of both the base steel and the HAZ.
  • Cr is used in an amount above 0.8 % the HAZ toughness as well as field weldability may be adversely affected.
  • Cr is used in the range of £0.65%.
  • Vanadium V is used in the range of 0.3 % or less.
  • V has substantially the same but smaller effects as Nb.
  • V is a strong carbide and nitride former, but V(C,N) can also form and its solubility in austenite is higher than that of Nb or Ti.
  • V alloying has potential for precipitation strengthening, because large quantities of
  • V are dissolved and available for precipitation in ferrite.
  • V alloying retards recrystallization of austenite, thereby impeding the grain growth, which achieves a fine-grained microstructure with enhanced strength.
  • V is also applied as a pearlite suppressor. Vanadium precipitates V4C3 in the form of plates enhance the resistant to hydrogen embrittlement of steel by trapping hydrogen.
  • V is a strong carbide stabilizing agent whereby less carbon may be available for stabilizing austenite.
  • V is used excessively the carbon content of steel may need to be increased in order to compensate the carbon depletion due to the formation of vanadium carbides.
  • Excessive amounts of V also have negative effects on weldability and hardenability.
  • V is set to 0.3 %.
  • V is used in the range of £01%.
  • Niobium Nb is used in the range of 0.1 % or less.
  • Nb forms carbides NbC and carbonitrides Nb(C,N).
  • Nb is applied as a pearlite suppressor and a major grain refining element.
  • Nb alloying retards recrystallization of austenite thereby impeding the grain growth.
  • Nb alloying further stabilizes the formation of carbides thereby enabling the strengthening effects of precipitation and grain refinement.
  • Nb is a strong carbide stabilizing agent whereby less carbon may be available for stabilizing austenite. In case Nb is used excessively the carbon content of steel may need to be increased in order to compensate the carbon depletion due to the formation of carbides.
  • the upper limit of Nb is set to 0.1 %.
  • Nb is used in the range of £0.05%.
  • Titanium Ti is used in the range of 0.2 % or less.
  • Ti is applied as a grain refiner, precipitation strengthener and pearlite suppressor.
  • Ti binds the harmful free N by forming stable TiN.
  • TiN together with NbC can efficiently impede grain growth by retarding recrystallization of austenite, which achieves a fine-grained microstructure with enhanced strength.
  • TiN precipitates can further prevent grain coarsening in the HAZ during welding thereby improving toughness.
  • TiN formation also suppresses BN precipitation, thereby leaving B free to make its contribution to hardenability.
  • the ratio of Ti/N is at least 3.4.
  • the grain coarsening resistance is similar for steels with only TiN and Ti-rich nitrides with vanadium and niobium. Therefore, small amounts (0.01 %) of Ti are usually added to vanadium containing commercial steels. However, if Ti content is too high, coarsening of TiN and precipitation hardening due to TiC develop and the low temperature toughness may be deteriorated. Therefore, it is necessary to restrict titanium so that it is less than 0.2%. Preferably, Ti is used in the range of £0.05%.
  • Boron B is used in the range of 0.005 % or less.
  • B is a well-established microalloying element to increase hardenability. Boron can be added to retard phosphorus segregation to grain boundaries thereby reducing embrittlement during welding in the HAZ. Effective B alloying requires the presence of Ti to prevent formation of BN. In the presence of B, Ti content can be lowered to be less than 0.02%, which is beneficial for toughness. However, hardenability and weldability deteriorate if the B content exceeds 0.005 %.
  • B is used in the range of £0.002%.
  • Calcium Ca is used in a content of 0.006 % or less.
  • Ca is not used as alloying element due to its low solubility in steel and high vapor pressure.
  • the optional Ca addition during a steelmaking process is for refining, deoxidation, desulphurization, and control of shape, size and distribution of oxide and sulphide inclusions.
  • Unavoidable impurities can be phosphor P, sulfur S and nitrogen N. Their content in terms of weight percentages (wt. %) is preferably defined as follows:
  • P 0 - 0.05 preferably 0-0.02
  • Phosphor P suppresses the formation of cementite and acts as a solid solution strengthener.
  • phosphorus decreases the hardenability of steels by forming complex phosphides that affect the amount of available substitutional elements in solid solution.
