- Si is an element that contributes to solid solution strengthening and is an element that contributes to improving the strength of hot-rolled steel sheets. Further, Si is an element that suppresses the formation of carbides in steel. By suppressing the formation of carbides during bainite transformation, a fine martensite phase or a martensite-austenite mixed phase is formed at the lath interface of the bainite phase. Since the martensite phase or the martensite-austenite mixed phase present in the bainite phase is fine, it does not deteriorate the hole expanding property of the hot-rolled steel sheet. In order to obtain the above effect due to the Si content, the Si content is 0.50% or more.
- the Si content is 0.55% or more, 0.60% or more, and 0.65% or more.
- Si is also an element that lowers the toughness, and when the Si content exceeds 1.50%, the toughness of the hot-rolled steel sheet is lowered. Therefore, the Si content is 1.50% or less.
- the Si content is 1.30% or less, 1.20% or less, and 1.00% or less.
- Mn 1.00 to 2.50% Mn dissolves in the steel and contributes to the increase in the strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet, and promotes the formation of bainite by improving the hardenability, thereby improving the hole-expanding property of the hot-rolled steel sheet.

- the Mn content is set to 2.50% or less.
- the Mn content is 2.00% or less and 1.95% or less.
- P 0.100% or less
- P is an element that dissolves in steel and contributes to increasing the strength of hot-rolled steel sheets.
- P is also an element that segregates at the grain boundaries, particularly the former austenite grain boundaries, and promotes the grain boundary fracture due to the grain boundary segregation, thereby causing a decrease in ductility, bendability, and hole expansion property of the hot-rolled steel sheet.
- the P content is preferably as low as possible, but a P content of up to 0.100% is acceptable. Therefore, the P content is set to 0.100% or less.
- the P content is 0.090% or less and 0.080% or less.
- the P content is preferably 0%, but the P content may be 0.0001% or more because the production cost increases if the P content is reduced to less than 0.0001%.
- the P content is 0.001% or more and 0.010% or more.
- S 0.010% or less
- S is an element that adversely affects weldability and manufacturability during casting and hot rolling.
- S combines with Mn to form coarse MnS. This MnS deteriorates the bendability and hole widening property of the hot-rolled steel sheet, and promotes the occurrence of delayed fracture.
- the S content is preferably as low as possible, but the content of S up to 0.010% is acceptable. Therefore, the S content is set to 0.010% or less.
- the S content is 0.008% or less and 0.007% or less.
- the S content is preferably 0%, but if it is reduced to less than 0.0001%, the manufacturing cost increases and it is economically disadvantageous. Therefore, the S content may be 0.0001% or more.
- the S content is 0.001% or more.
- Al 0.01 to 0.10%
- Al is an element that acts as a deoxidizer and is effective in improving the cleanliness of steel.
- the Al content is 0.01% or more.
- the Al content is 0.02% or more.
- the Al content is set to 0.10% or less.
- the Al content is 0.08% or less and 0.06% or less.
- N 0.0100% or less
- N is an element that forms a coarse nitride in steel. This nitride deteriorates the bendability and hole expansion property of the hot-rolled steel sheet and also deteriorates the delayed fracture resistance. Therefore, the N content is set to 0.0100% or less. Preferably, the N content is 0.0080% or less, 0.0060% or less, 0.0050% or less. Since reducing the N content to less than 0.0001% causes a significant increase in manufacturing cost, the N content may be 0.0001% or more. Preferably, the N content is 0.0005% or more and 0.0010% or more.
- Ti 0.005 to 0.150%

- a preferred method for producing a hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment includes the following steps.
- a hot rolling process in which hot rolling is performed so that the hot rolling start temperature is 1050 to 1200 ° C. and the finish rolling completion temperature is more than 950 ° C. and 1050 ° C. or lower.
- a cooling step in which cooling is started within 1.0 second after the completion of the hot rolling and the cooling is performed at an average cooling rate of 30 to 150 ° C./s to a cooling stop temperature of 400 to 500 ° C.

- the heating step the slab having the above-mentioned chemical composition is heated to 1100 ° C. or higher and lower than 1350 ° C. Since the coarse precipitates present at the slab stage cause cracks during rolling and deterioration of material properties, it is preferable to heat the steel material before hot rolling to dissolve the coarse carbides as a solid solution. Therefore, the heating temperature is preferably 1100 ° C. or higher. More preferably, it is 1150 ° C. or higher. On the other hand, even if the heating temperature becomes too high, the yield decreases due to the large amount of scale generated, so the heating temperature is preferably 1350 ° C. or lower. More preferably, it is 1300 ° C. or lower.
- the slab to be heated is preferably produced by continuous casting from the viewpoint of manufacturing cost, but may be produced by another casting method (for example, ingot forming method).

If the hot rolling start temperature is less than 1050 ° C., precipitation starts before the start of hot rolling and the precipitate becomes coarse, so that the precipitate cannot be controlled to a desired form and a homogeneous slab can be obtained. May not be possible. Therefore, the hot rolling start temperature is preferably 1050 ° C. or higher. More preferably, it is 1070 ° C. or higher. On the other hand, when the hot rolling start temperature exceeds 1200 ° C., it becomes difficult to start the precipitation of the precipitate during the hot rolling, and the precipitate may not be controlled to a desired form. Therefore, the hot rolling start temperature is preferably 1200 ° C. or lower. More preferably, it is 1170 ° C. or lower.

- the rolling since the rolling is performed at a relatively high temperature, the coarsening of the old austenite grains tends to proceed. Therefore, it is necessary to start cooling in a short time after the completion of finish rolling to suppress the coarsening of the old austenite grains. If the time from the completion of finish rolling to the start of cooling is long, the old austenite particles become coarse, and the particle size is within the top 10% of the desired average particle size of the second phase and the total particles of the second phase. It may not be possible to obtain the average particle size of the particles. The earlier the cooling start time is, the better, and in the present embodiment, it is preferable to start cooling within 1.0 second after the completion of hot rolling.

If the average cooling rate is too slow, ferrite will precipitate, making it impossible to obtain the desired amount of bainite phase, and it may not be possible to obtain the desired tensile strength and / or hole-expanding property. Further, when the average cooling rate is slow, carbide-forming elements Ti, V, Nb and the like may be bonded to carbon to form a large amount of precipitates, and the low-temperature toughness of the hot-rolled steel sheet may be lowered. Therefore, the average cooling rate of cooling after the completion of hot rolling is preferably 30 ° C./s or more.

If the cooling shutdown temperature is outside the temperature range of 400 to 500 ° C., the winding step described later cannot be performed in a desired temperature range. Further, in order to obtain a desired metal structure, it is desirable not to perform air cooling in order to suppress ferrite transformation during cooling in cooling after hot rolling.
- the winding temperature is 400 in order to suppress the ferrite transformation and promote the bainite transformation, and to control the distribution, morphology, and fraction of the second phase. It is preferable to wind the product so that the temperature range is about 500 ° C. If the winding temperature is less than 400 ° C., martensitic transformation is likely to occur, so that the area ratio of the martensite phase increases, and the desired ductility may not be obtained. Therefore, the winding temperature is preferably 400 ° C. or higher. More preferably, it is 420 ° C. or higher.

- carbon concentration to untransformed austenite progresses excessively, the hardness of the second phase becomes excessive, and the difference in hardness between the structures of the main phase and the second phase becomes large, so that the holes in the hot-rolled steel sheet become large.

以下、各規定について説明する。
本実施形態に係る熱延鋼板は、ベイナイト相を主相とする。主相であるベイナイト相の面積率は90.0%以上である。なお、本実施形態において主相とは、面積率が90.0%以上であることを意味する。
ベイナイト相とは、ラス状のベイニティックフェライトと、ベイニティックフェライトの間および/または内部にFe系炭化物を有する組織とを意味する。ベイニティックフェライトは、ポリゴナルフェライトとは異なり、形状がラス状でかつ内部に比較的高い転位密度を有しているため、SEMやTEMを用いて他の組織と容易に区別できる。
一方、ベイナイト相の面積率が98.0%超では、高強度(好ましくは引張強さが980MPa以上)とならない場合があるため、ベイナイト相の面積率は98.0%以下とする。好ましくは、96.0%以下、95.0%以下である。
本実施形態に係る熱延鋼板は、マルテンサイト相、またはマルテンサイト―オーステナイト混合相を第2相とする。マルテンサイト相とは、ラス状の結晶粒の集合であり、結晶粒の内部に鉄炭化物の伸長方向が二つ以上である組織を意味する。マルテンサイト―オーステナイトの混合相とは、縞状マルテンサイト(MA:Martensite-Austenite constituent)とも呼ばれ、マルテンサイトおよび残留オーステナイトの両方からなる組織を意味する。
一方、第2相の面積率が10.0%超では、所望の穴広げ性および延性を得ることができない。そのため、第2相の面積率は10.0%以下とする。好ましくは、9.0%以下、8.0%以下、7.0%以下である。
まず、熱延鋼板から、圧延方向と直行する板厚断面であり、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置(表面から板厚方向に1/8位置~表面から板厚方向に3/8位置の領域、すなわち表面から板厚方向に1/8位置を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に3/8位置を終点とする領域)を観察できるように試験片を採取する。試験片の断面を鏡面研磨し、レペラ腐食液で腐食した後、光学顕微鏡を用いて組織観察を行う。
第2相の平均粒径が大きくなるとボイドが発生しやすくなり、熱延鋼板の穴広げ性が低下する。ボイドの発生を抑制して穴広げ性を向上するためには、第2相の平均粒径は小さい程好ましい。第2相の平均粒径が1.5μm超であると、所望の穴広げ性を得ることができない。そのため、第2相の平均粒径は1.5μm以下とする。好ましくは、1.4μm以下であり、より好ましくは1.3μm以下である。
第2相の平均粒径を0.1μm未満とすることは技術的に困難なため、第2相の平均粒径は0.1μm以上としてもよい。
第2相の全粒子のうち、粒径の大きさが上位10%以内である粒子の平均粒径が大きい場合、ボイドの発生起点が多くなるため、熱延鋼板の穴広げ性が低下する。そのため、第2相の全粒子のうち、粒径の大きさが上位10%以内である粒子の平均粒径は小さい程好ましい。所望の穴広げ性を得るために、第2相の全粒子のうち、粒径の大きさが上位10%以内である粒子の平均粒径は2.5μm以下とする。好ましくは、2.3μm以下であり、より好ましくは2.2μm以下であり、より一層好ましくは2.0μm以下である。
まず、熱延鋼板から、圧延方向と直行する板厚断面であり、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置(表面から板厚方向に1/8位置~表面から板厚方向に3/8位置の領域、すなわち表面から板厚方向に1/8位置を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に3/8位置を終点とする領域)を観察できるように試験片を採取する。試験片の断面を鏡面研磨し、レペラ腐食液で腐食した後、光学顕微鏡を用いて組織観察を行う。画像解析ソフト(Image-J)を用いて、白色部とそれ以外の領域の二値化画像を作成する。その後、二値化画像をもとに粒子解析を実施し、各々の粒子の面積を算出する。観察視野は3か所以上とし、各視野において得られた平均粒径の平均値を算出することで、第2相の平均粒径を得る。
表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置における金属組織における(110)<112>方位の極密度は、圧延集合組織の発達具合を評価する指標である。(110)<112>方位の極密度が発達する程、すなわち(110)<112>方位の極密度が大きい程、組織の異方性が大きくなり、熱延鋼板の穴広げ性が低下する。(110)<112>方位の極密度が3.0を超えると、穴広げ性が低下するため、(110)<112>方位の極密度は3.0以下とする。好ましくは、2.8以下、2.5以下、2.3以下である。
(110)<112>方位の極密度は、走査電子顕微鏡とEBSD解析装置とを組み合わせた装置及びAMETEK社製のOIM Analysis(登録商標)を用いて、EBSD(Electron Back Scattering Diffraction)法で測定した方位データを、球面調和関数を用いて計算して算出した3次元集合組織を表示する結晶方位分布関数(ODF:Orientation Distribution Function)から求めることができる。測定範囲は、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置(表面から板厚方向に1/8位置~表面から板厚方向に3/8位置の領域、すなわち表面から板厚方向に1/8位置を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に3/8位置を終点とする領域)とし、圧延方向においては400μmの領域とする。測定ピッチが0.5μm/step以下になるように、測定ピッチを設定することが好ましい。
表面~表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/16位置(表面を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/16の位置を終点とする領域)の金属組織における(110)<1-11>方位の極密度は、熱延鋼板の表層領域のせん断集合組織の発達具合を評価する指標である。この位置における(110)<1-11>方位の極密度が発達すると、すなわち(110)<1-11>方位の極密度が大きくなると、組織の異方性が大きくなり、熱延鋼板の曲げ性が低下する。(110)<1-11>方位の極密度が3.0を超えると、熱延鋼板の曲げ性が低下するため、(110)<1-11>方位の極密度は3.0以下とする。好ましくは、2.8以下、2.5以下、2.2以下である。
(110)<1-11>方位の極密度は、走査電子顕微鏡とEBSD解析装置とを組み合わせた装置及びAMETEK社製のOIM Analysis(登録商標)を用いて、EBSD(Electron Back Scattering Diffraction)法で測定した方位データを、球面調和関数を用いて計算して算出した3次元集合組織を表示する結晶方位分布関数(ODF:Orientation Distribution Function)から求めることができる。測定範囲は、表面~表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/16位置の領域(表面を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/16の位置を終点とする領域)とし、圧延方向においては400μm以上の領域を評価する。測定ピッチが0.5μm/step以下になるように、測定ピッチを設定することが好ましい。
本実施形態に係る熱延鋼板は、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置(表面から板厚方向に1/8位置~表面から板厚方向に3/8位置の領域、すなわち表面から板厚方向に1/8位置を始点とし、表面から板厚方向に3/8位置を終点とする領域)における前記金属組織において、直径20nm以下のMC炭化物の平均間隔が50nm以上であってもよい。
直径20nm以下のMC炭化物の平均間隔を50nm以上とすることで、熱延鋼板の低温靭性をより向上することができる。
まず、熱延鋼板から、熱延鋼板の圧延方向に平行な板厚断面であり、表面から板厚方向に板厚の1/4位置(表面から板厚方向に1/8位置~表面から板厚方向に3/8位置の領域)における金属組織を観察できるように試験片を採取する。断面を電解エッチングし、透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)にて倍率20000倍で10視野撮影する。撮影写真内の直径20nm以下の析出物について、画像解析により、最近接距離を求めてこれらの平均値を算出することで、直径20nm以下のMC炭化物の平均間隔を得る。
本実施形態に係る熱延鋼板の好ましい製造方法は、以下の工程を備える。
所定の化学組成を有するスラブを1100℃以上、1350℃未満に加熱する加熱工程、
熱間圧延開始温度が1050~1200℃であり、仕上げ圧延完了温度が950℃超、1050℃以下となるように熱間圧延する熱間圧延工程、
前記熱間圧延完了後、1.0秒以内に冷却を開始し、30~150℃/sの平均冷却速度で400~500℃の冷却停止温度まで冷却する冷却工程、
前記冷却停止温度まで冷却した後、400~500℃の温度域で巻取りを行う巻取り工程、
前記巻取り後、25℃/h超、100℃/h以下の平均冷却速度で50℃以下の温度域まで冷却するコイル冷却工程。
以下、各工程について詳細に説明する。
加熱工程では、上述の化学組成を有するスラブを1100℃以上、1350℃未満に加熱する。スラブ段階で存在する粗大な析出物は、圧延中の割れや材料特性の低下を引き起こすため、熱間圧延前の鋼素材を加熱して、粗大な炭化物を固溶することが好ましい。そのため、加熱温度は1100℃以上とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、1150℃以上である。一方、加熱温度が高くなりすぎても、スケール発生量が多くなることで歩留まりが低下するため、加熱温度は1350℃以下とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、1300℃以下である。
熱間圧延における鋼板温度は、オーステナイト中のTiおよびNbの炭化物や窒化物の析出に影響を与える。熱間圧延開始温度が1050℃未満では、熱間圧延開始前に析出が開始して析出物が粗大化するため、析出物を所望の形態に制御することができず、均質なスラブを得ることができない場合がある。そのため、熱間圧延開始温度は1050℃以上とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、1070℃以上である。
一方、熱間圧延開始温度が1200℃超では、熱間圧延中に析出物の析出を開始させることが困難となり、析出物を所望の形態に制御することができない場合がある。そのため、熱間圧延開始温度は1200℃以下とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは1170℃以下である。
一方、仕上げ圧延完了温度が高すぎると、旧オーステナイト粒の粗大化が顕著になり、第2相が粗大化することで、所望の穴広げ性を得ることができなくなる場合がある。そのため、仕上げ圧延完了温度は1050℃以下とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、1020℃以下である。
本実施形態では、所望の金属組織を得るためには、冷却工程における熱間圧延後の冷却条件およびコイル冷却工程におけるコイル状に巻取った後の冷却条件を複合的且つ不可分に制御することが効果的である。
冷却停止温度が400~500℃の温度域外であると、後述の巻取り工程を所望の温度域で行うことができない。また、所望の金属組織を得るためには、熱間圧延後の冷却において冷却中のフェライト変態を抑制するため、空冷を行わないことが望ましい。
熱間圧延後の冷却を停止した後、フェライト変態を抑制してベイナイト変態を進行させるために、また第2相の分布・形態・分率を制御するために、巻取り温度が400~500℃の温度域となるように巻取りを行うことが好ましい。巻取り温度が400℃未満であると、マルテンサイト変態が生じやすくなることで、マルテンサイト相の面積率が高まり、所望の延性を得ることができない場合がある。そのため、巻取り温度は400℃以上とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、420℃以上である。
コイル状に巻取った後の冷却速度は、第2相の組織分率に影響を及ぼす。コイル冷却工程では、未変態オーステナイトへの炭素濃化が行われる。未変態オーステナイトは第2相(マルテンサイト相、またはマルテンサイト―オーステナイト混合相)に変態する前の組織である。コイル状に巻取った後に、25℃/h以下の平均冷却速度で冷却すると、未変態オーステナイトが分解し、所望量の第2相を得ることができない場合がある。また、未変態オーステナイトへの炭素濃化が過度に進行し、第2相の硬さが過剰になり、主相と第2相との組織間硬度差が大きくなることで、熱延鋼板の穴広げ性が低下する場合がある。そのため、平均冷却速度は25℃/h超とすることが好ましい。より好ましくは、30℃/以上である。
JIS Z 2241:2011に準拠して、JIS5号試験片を用いて引張試験を行うことで、引張強さTSおよび全伸びElを得た。なお、クロスヘッド速度は10mm/minとした。引張強さTSが980MPa以上である場合を、強度に優れるとして合格と判定し、980MPa未満の場合を、強度に劣るとして不合格と判定した。全伸びElが13.0%以上の場合を、延性に優れるとして合格と判定し、13.0%未満の場合を、延性に劣るとして不合格と判定した。
穴広げ性は、60°円錐ポンチを用いて、クリアランスが12.5%となる条件で直径10mmの円形穴を打ち抜き、かえりがダイ側となるようにした穴広げ試験を行って得られる、穴広げ率λで評価した。各試験番号について、5回の穴広げ試験を実施し、それらの平均値を算出することで、穴広げ率λを得た。穴広げ率が60%以上の場合を穴広げ性に優れるとして合格と判定し、60%未満の場合を穴広げ性に劣るとして不合格と判定した。
曲げ性は、V曲げ試験を行うことで得られる、限界曲げ半径Rにより評価した。限界曲げ半径Rは、圧延方向に対して垂直な方向が長手方向(曲げ稜線が圧延方向と一致)となるように、JIS Z 2248:2014に準拠して、1号試験片を用いてV曲げ試験を行うことで得た。
延性脆性遷移温度vTrsは、JIS Z 2242:2018で規定する2.5mmサブサイズのVノッチ試験片を用いて、シャルピー衝撃試験を行った。脆性破面率が50%となる温度を求め、これを延性脆性遷移温度vTrsとした。延性脆性遷移温度vTrsが-40℃以下(-40℃を含む、-40℃より負の値)である場合を低温靭性に優れるとして合格と判定し、-40℃超(-40℃を含まない、-40℃より正の値)の場合を低温靭性に劣るとして不合格と判定した。また、延性脆性遷移温度vTrsが-70℃以下である場合を、低温靭性により優れると判断した。
一方、比較例は、強度、延性、曲げ性および穴広げ性のうち1つ以上の特性が劣ることが分かる。
