If the Mn content is less than 0.8% by mass, these effects cannot be fully exhibited, and if it exceeds 1.2% by mass, the strength may become too high. Therefore, the Mn content is controlled to 0.8 to 1.2% by mass (meaning 0.8% by mass or more and 1.2% by mass or less; the same applies hereinafter).
- Mg 0.5 to 1.7% by mass
- Mg manganesium contributes to increasing the strength of the cold rolled sheet by existing in a solid solution state. If the Mg content is less than 0.5% by mass, sufficient strength may not be obtained, and if it exceeds 1.7% by mass, moldability may be impaired.

Description
本発明はアルミニウム合金冷間圧延板およびその製造方法に関する。なお、本明細書において、アルミニウム合金冷間圧延板とは、熱間圧延および冷間圧延によって圧延されたアルミニウム合金の圧延板であって、冷間圧延上がりの板、あるいは更に熱処理を施されて調質された圧延板をいう。また、アルミニウム合金をAl合金と表記することがある。
The present invention relates to a cold rolled aluminum alloy plate and a method for manufacturing the same. In addition, in this specification, an aluminum alloy cold-rolled plate is a rolled aluminum alloy plate rolled by hot rolling and cold rolling, and refers to a cold-rolled plate or a plate that has been further heat-treated. A tempered rolled plate. Further, an aluminum alloy is sometimes referred to as an Al alloy.
アルミニウム系飲料缶として、缶胴体(缶ボディ)と缶蓋(缶エンド)とをシーミング加工することによって得られる2ピースアルミニウム缶が広く用いられている。缶胴体は、一般に次のような工程を経て製造される。まず、アルミニウム合金冷間圧延板をDI加工(Drawing and Ironing:絞り加工およびしごき加工)し、所定のサイズにトリミングする。その後、脱脂・洗浄処理を行った後、塗装および印刷を行って焼付け(ベーキング)を行う。続いて、缶胴縁部をネッキング加工及びフランジ加工することによって、缶胴体が得られる。2ピース缶は、DI缶と呼ばれることもある。
Two-piece aluminum cans, which are obtained by seaming a can body and a can end, are widely used as aluminum beverage cans. Can bodies are generally manufactured through the following steps. First, a cold-rolled aluminum alloy plate is subjected to DI processing (Drawing and Ironing) and trimmed to a predetermined size. Then, after degreasing and cleaning, painting and printing are performed, followed by baking. Subsequently, the can body is obtained by necking and flanging the can body edge. Two-piece cans are sometimes called DI cans.
近年、飲料缶ボディの製造において、使用済み飲料缶(UBC:Used Beverage Can)の再生塊をリサイクル利用する技術の開発が進められている。再生塊を利用すると、新地金を利用する場合に比べてCO2排出量を約97%削減することが可能であり、カーボンニュートラルな社会の実現に貢献すると期待される。
2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in the production of beverage can bodies, technology has been developed to recycle recycled lumps of used beverage cans (UBCs). Using recycled ingots can reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 97% compared to using new ingots, and is expected to contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society.
UBCの再生塊には、不純物としてSiやFe等が混入することがある。Al合金鋳塊にSiやFeが含まれると、加熱処理時に、SiがMnやFeと金属間化合物を形成し、MnやFeの固溶量を減少させる。固溶Mn量の減少は、製造されるAl合金板の強度低下を引き起こし、缶体強度の低下につながる。
The recycled UBC mass may contain impurities such as Si and Fe. When Si or Fe is contained in the Al alloy ingot, Si forms an intermetallic compound with Mn or Fe during heat treatment, reducing the amount of solid solution of Mn or Fe. A decrease in the amount of solid solution Mn causes a decrease in the strength of the manufactured Al alloy plate, leading to a decrease in the strength of the can body.
本願の出願人は、特許文献1に、缶ボディ用Al合金冷間圧延板であって、熱間圧延後の固溶Mn量を0.25質量%以上、固溶Fe量を0.02質量%以上、かつ固溶Si量を0.07質量%以上とすることで、冷間圧延中に析出する微細な析出粒子(α相)を最適化し、優れた成形性を確保しつつ、高い耐熱軟化特性が付与され、更に熱処理後においても、優れた缶体強度を発揮し得ることを開示している。
The applicant of the present application discloses in Patent Document 1 an Al alloy cold rolled plate for can bodies, in which the amount of solid solute Mn after hot rolling is 0.25% by mass or more, and the amount of solid solute Fe is 0.02% by mass. % or more and the amount of solid solution Si is 0.07 mass% or more, the fine precipitated particles (α phase) that precipitate during cold rolling are optimized, ensuring excellent formability and high heat resistance. It is disclosed that it is imparted with softening properties and can exhibit excellent can body strength even after heat treatment.

[Fe/Si:1.97~4.00以下]
本発明者は、固溶Mn量、固溶Si量の最適化において、Siに対するFeの質量%の比(Fe/Si)が重要であることを見出した。Fe/Siが1.97未満であると、均質化処理(「均熱処理」、「ソーキング」ともいう。)中に、Al-Fe-Mn系金属間化合物と反応してAl-Mn-Fe-Si系金属間化合物を形成することがないSiが多く残存し、均質化処理後の熱間圧延中に固溶Mnと結合して、Al-Mn-Fe-Si系金属間化合物を形成し、α相の析出を促進する。ここで析出するα相は冷間圧延中に析出するα相に比べて疎で粗大なので、強度を上昇させる効果は非常に小さい。Fe/Siが4.0を超えると、Feが過剰となり、鋳造中に粗大晶出物が形成されやすくなる。粗大晶出物は、成形時に割れの起点となりやすいので、粗大晶出物の形成を抑制することが好ましい。 [Fe/Si: 1.97 to 4.00 or less]
The present inventors have found that the mass % ratio of Fe to Si (Fe/Si) is important in optimizing the amount of solid solution Mn and the amount of solid solution Si. If Fe/Si is less than 1.97, the Al-Mn-Fe- A large amount of Si that does not form a Si-based intermetallic compound remains, and it combines with solid solution Mn during hot rolling after homogenization treatment to form an Al-Mn-Fe-Si based intermetallic compound, Promotes precipitation of α phase. The α phase that precipitates here is sparser and coarser than the α phase that precipitates during cold rolling, so the effect of increasing strength is very small. When Fe/Si exceeds 4.0, Fe becomes excessive and coarse crystallized substances are likely to be formed during casting. Since coarse crystallized substances tend to become starting points for cracks during molding, it is preferable to suppress the formation of coarse crystallized substances.

Fe/Siの最適化によって、均質化処理において固溶Siと反応するのに十分な量のAl6(Fe,Mn)系金属間化合物を鋳造時に存在させ、均質化処理において固溶Siを十分に減少させることによって、その後の熱間圧延中にα相が析出することを抑制し、固溶Mn量が過度に減少することを抑制する。
By optimizing Fe/Si, a sufficient amount of Al 6 (Fe, Mn)-based intermetallic compounds to react with solid solution Si in the homogenization process is present during casting, and a sufficient amount of solid solution Si is present in the homogenization process. By reducing the amount of Mn to 1, the precipitation of the α phase during subsequent hot rolling is suppressed, and the amount of solid solution Mn is suppressed from decreasing excessively.
本発明の実施形態による上述のアルミニウム合金冷間圧延板は、実験例を示して後述する様に、下記の製造方法によって製造され得る。
The above-described cold-rolled aluminum alloy plate according to the embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured by the following manufacturing method, as will be described later with experimental examples.
本発明の実施形態による製造方法は、上記の所定の組成を有するスラブを用意する工程と、スラブを均質化処理する工程と、均質化処理を経たスラブを熱間圧延し、熱間圧延板を得る工程と、熱間圧延板を冷間圧延し、冷間圧延板を得る工程とを包含する。ここで、熱間圧延板の導電率から均質化処理前のスラブの導電率を差し引いた値を縦軸、Fe/Siを横軸としてプロットした場合の傾きが、-1.1以上、0.2以下となるように、均質化処理および熱間圧延を行うことによって、上述の冷間圧延板を得ることができる。
The manufacturing method according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a step of preparing a slab having the above-described predetermined composition, a step of homogenizing the slab, hot rolling the homogenized slab, and forming a hot rolled plate. and a step of cold rolling a hot rolled plate to obtain a cold rolled plate. Here, when plotting the value obtained by subtracting the conductivity of the slab before homogenization treatment from the conductivity of the hot-rolled plate with the vertical axis and Fe/Si as the horizontal axis, the slope is -1.1 or more, 0. The above-mentioned cold rolled plate can be obtained by performing homogenization treatment and hot rolling so that the particle diameter is 2 or less.
鋳造後から熱間圧延後に至るまでの固溶量の変化を導電率の変化をモニターすることによって評価することができる。鋳造直後は冷却速度が速いため、各元素はアルミニウム母相中に過飽和状態で固溶しており、鋳塊の導電率は晶出物の量によって決定される。また、熱間圧延後の熱間圧延板の導電率は、主に均質化処理から熱間圧延までの間に析出物が生成され固溶Mn量が減少することによって上昇する。Siに対するFeの質量%の比(Fe/Si)がFe/Si<1.97と小さいと、Fe/Siが小さいほど導電率の減少量は大きい。すなわち、Fe/Siに対する導電率の変化の傾きは大きい。一方、1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00の範囲での導電率の変化は、Fe/Siによらずほぼ一定の値であり、Fe/Si<1.97におけるFe/Siに対する導電率の変化の傾きに比べると小さい。すなわち、Siに対して一定以上の割合のFeが含まれた組成を有する合金では、均質化処理から熱間圧延において生じる導電率の変化が小さく、導電率の変化が上記の範囲内である合金は、Siによる固溶原子の減少が抑制された合金であるといえる。
Changes in the amount of solid solution from after casting to after hot rolling can be evaluated by monitoring changes in electrical conductivity. Immediately after casting, the cooling rate is fast, so each element is dissolved in a supersaturated state in the aluminum matrix, and the electrical conductivity of the ingot is determined by the amount of crystallized substances. Further, the electrical conductivity of the hot rolled sheet after hot rolling increases mainly due to the formation of precipitates between the homogenization treatment and the hot rolling, and the amount of solid solution Mn decreases. When the mass % ratio of Fe to Si (Fe/Si) is small, such as Fe/Si<1.97, the smaller the Fe/Si, the greater the decrease in electrical conductivity. That is, the slope of the change in conductivity with respect to Fe/Si is large. On the other hand, the change in conductivity in the range of 1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00 is a nearly constant value regardless of Fe/Si, and the conductivity for Fe/Si in Fe/Si<1.97 is small compared to the slope of change. In other words, in an alloy having a composition containing a certain proportion of Fe to Si, the change in conductivity that occurs from homogenization treatment to hot rolling is small, and the change in conductivity is within the above range. It can be said that this is an alloy in which the decrease in solid solution atoms due to Si is suppressed.

表1に実験例1~15の各試料1~15の合金組成を示す。各組成のアルミニウム合金を、常法に従って溶製した後、DC鋳造法により、ラボ鋳造機を用いて鋳塊を得た。次いで、得られた鋳塊に対して、従来と同様に面削を施した後、空気炉を用いて、40℃/時間の昇温速度にて595℃まで昇温し、引き続き595℃で90分間以上の均質化処理を施した。
Table 1 shows the alloy compositions of each of Samples 1 to 15 of Experimental Examples 1 to 15. After melting aluminum alloys of each composition according to a conventional method, an ingot was obtained using a laboratory casting machine by a DC casting method. Next, the obtained ingot was subjected to surface cutting in the same manner as before, and then heated to 595°C at a temperature increase rate of 40°C/hour using an air furnace, and then heated to 90°C at 595°C. Homogenization treatment was performed for more than 1 minute.
次いで、均質化処理の後、厚さが2.8mmとなるまで、ラボ圧延機を用いて実機の熱間圧延を模擬して圧延した。なお、ラボ試験では実機の操業に比べて材料の熱容量が小さく自己焼鈍による再結晶が生じないので、実機を模擬して、熱間圧延板を355℃で60分間、熱処理した。再結晶した熱間圧延板について冷間圧延を行い、厚さが0.28mmの冷間圧延板を得た。この冷間圧延工程における総加工度は、90.0%であった。
Next, after homogenization treatment, rolling was performed using a laboratory rolling mill to simulate actual hot rolling until the thickness was 2.8 mm. In the lab test, the heat capacity of the material is smaller than in the operation of the actual machine, and recrystallization due to self-annealing does not occur, so the hot rolled plate was heat-treated at 355° C. for 60 minutes to simulate the actual machine. The recrystallized hot rolled plate was cold rolled to obtain a cold rolled plate having a thickness of 0.28 mm. The total working degree in this cold rolling process was 90.0%.
上述のようにして得られた各実験例の冷間圧延板から試験片を作製し、上述の方法で評価を行った結果を下記の表2に示す。表2には、冷間圧延板の引張強度、真応力σが真歪みεのn乗で示されると仮定した場合のひずみ1.5-3%における加工硬化指数n、補正強度、試料No.13を基準(0.0)とした場合のΔYS、ΔTS、およびXRDのピーク強度比I(18.26o)/I(22.45o)、相体積比V1/V2、固溶量の結果を示している。
Test pieces were prepared from the cold-rolled plates of each experimental example obtained as described above, and evaluated by the method described above. The results are shown in Table 2 below. Table 2 shows the tensile strength of the cold rolled plate, the work hardening index n at a strain of 1.5-3% assuming that the true stress σ is expressed as the nth power of the true strain ε, the corrected strength, and the sample No. Results of ΔYS, ΔTS, and XRD peak intensity ratio I( 18.26o )/I( 22.45o ), phase volume ratio V1/V2, and solid solution amount when 13 is used as the reference (0.0) It shows.
表2から明らかなように、試料No.1~No.15のうち、試料No.8~No.15(実施例)は、Si:0.15~0.40質量%、Fe:0.30~0.80質量%、Cu:0.10~0.50質量%、Mn:0.80~1.20質量%、およびMg:0.50~1.70質量%を含有し、残部がAlと不可避的不純物からなる組成を有し、Siに対するFeの質量%の比が1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00の範囲内にあり、固溶Mn量/全Mn量が0.17以上、固溶Si量が0.03質量%以下であり、CuKα線を用いたX線回折パターンにおいて、Al-Fe-Mn-Si系金属間化合物相(すなわちα相)に由来するブラッグ角(2θ±0.2°)=18.26°±0.1°のピークとAl6(Fe,Mn)系金属間化合物相(すなわちβ相)に由来するブラッグ角(2θ±0.2°)=22.45°±0.1°のピークの強度比I(18.26°±0.1°)/I(22.45°±0.1°)が0.11以上である組織を有する。試料No.8~No.15は、Fe,Siの違いによらず、ΔYS,ΔTSは±2MPa内で強度が安定しており、Siに起因する強度の低下が抑制されている。
As is clear from Table 2, sample No. 1~No. Among 15 samples, sample No. 8~No. 15 (Example) is Si: 0.15 to 0.40% by mass, Fe: 0.30 to 0.80% by mass, Cu: 0.10 to 0.50% by mass, Mn: 0.80 to 1 .20% by mass, and Mg: 0.50 to 1.70% by mass, with the remainder consisting of Al and inevitable impurities, and the ratio of the mass% of Fe to Si is 1.97≦Fe/ Si≦4.00, the solid solution Mn amount/total Mn amount is 0.17 or more, the solid solution Si amount is 0.03% by mass or less, and in the X-ray diffraction pattern using CuKα rays, The peak of Bragg angle (2θ ± 0.2°) = 18.26° ± 0.1° derived from the Al-Fe-Mn-Si intermetallic compound phase (i.e. α phase) and Al 6 (Fe, Mn) Intensity ratio I (18.26° ± 0.1°) of the peak of Bragg angle (2θ ± 0.2°) = 22.45° ± 0.1° derived from the intermetallic phase (i.e. β phase) /I (22.45°±0.1°) is 0.11 or more. Sample No. 8~No. In No. 15, the strength is stable within ±2 MPa for ΔYS and ΔTS regardless of the difference in Fe and Si, and the decrease in strength due to Si is suppressed.
これに対し、試料No.1~No.7(比較例)は、基準とした試料No.13に比べて強度が低く、Siに起因する強度低下が生じていることがわかる。
On the other hand, sample No. 1~No. 7 (comparative example) is sample No. 7 (comparative example). It can be seen that the strength is lower than that of Sample No. 13, indicating that the strength is lowered due to Si.
また、図1から、Fe/Si<1.97となるプロットでは、鋳塊から熱間圧延板までの導電率の増加が大きく、1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00では導電率増加量が小さいことがわかる。すなわち、合金組成が1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00の領域であればUBCに含まれる不純物の組成がある程度変動したとしても、固溶量変化に起因する強度の変動は小さいといえる。
Also, from Figure 1, in the plot where Fe/Si < 1.97, the increase in electrical conductivity from the ingot to the hot rolled plate is large, and when 1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00, the increase in electrical conductivity It can be seen that is small. That is, if the alloy composition is in the range of 1.97≦Fe/Si≦4.00, it can be said that even if the composition of impurities contained in UBC varies to some extent, the variation in strength due to the change in the amount of solid solution is small.

As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the amount of solid solution Mn caused by Si generated during the homogenization treatment and hot rolling, and therefore it is possible to suppress a decrease in strength.
