2. Description of the Related Art Although many thin steel sheets are used for automobile bodies, there are some parts and applications that require extremely slight flanging workability in spite of relatively mild bending and roll forming. is there. For example, it is a reinforcing material for the front side member, the rear side member, the cross member, and the parts connected to them. For these parts and applications, it is necessary to show a high strength level, have a tensile strength of 540 MPa or less that secures shape fixability, and have a hole expansion ratio of 80% or more that shows excellent flange formability. This is a rough guide.

Cold-rolled steel sheets have been used in many cases for the above parts and applications. However, since cold-rolled steel sheets require steps such as cold rolling and annealing as compared with hot-rolled steel sheets, it is generally economically advantageous to use hot-rolled steel sheets. Therefore, at least when the appearance is not required to be beautiful, hot-rolled steel sheet is used, but the hot-rolled steel sheet is inferior in stretch flange formability to cold-rolled steel sheet having almost the same composition, There were problems such as large in-plane anisotropy of physical properties and poor elongation properties.

Further, by adding elements such as Nb and Ti,
Techniques for improving the stretch flange characteristics of hot-rolled steel sheets by refining the structure have also been proposed, but since these additional elements greatly increase the hot deformation resistance of the steel, the sheet thickness is generally 2.3 mm or less. In the case of the thin steel sheet, there was a problem that hot rolling becomes difficult. At the same time, since precipitation strengthening occurs due to these additional elements, it has been difficult to manufacture a high-formability steel sheet having a relatively low tensile strength (TS) of 540 MPa or less and a high degree of formability. Furthermore, the addition of elements such as Nb and Ti increases the in-plane anisotropy of mechanical properties of the steel sheet.

C: 0.01 to 0.08% or less; If C exceeds 0.08%, the stretch flange formability of the steel sheet is significantly deteriorated due to an increase in the fraction of carbides in the steel, and spots Weldability, arc weldability, etc. are also significantly reduced. Therefore, the C content is 0.08% or less, but 0.05% or less is preferable from the viewpoint of improving the moldability. When particularly good ductility is required, 0.03% or less is more preferable. Further, if C is less than 0.01%, the fine structure is remarkably coarsened and the stretch flange formability is deteriorated.

However, addition of a large amount remarkably lowers the hot rolling property, so it is necessary to set it to 0.2% or less.

However, if Mn is excessively added, the detailed mechanism is unclear, but it tends to increase the hot deformation resistance of the steel sheet, which is not preferable.

However, if added excessively, the steel becomes brittle and the segregation tends to be strong, so that the stretch-flange formability of the steel sheet is deteriorated and the welded portion becomes brittle.

Even if added in a large amount exceeding 0.10%, the effect of refining the structure is saturated, and the cost increases due to the added alloy. Further, from the viewpoint of material stability, 0.02 to
0.06% is more desirable. On the other hand, although there is a concern that the reduction of the amount of Al added may lead to coarsening of crystal grains, in the present invention, other alloying elements such as Mn are limited to the optimum amounts, and the hot rolling conditions are set to the optimum range.

The structure, thickness and mechanical properties of the steel sheet will be described below. Area ratio of ferrite phase: 90% or more, average crystal grain size of ferrite phase: 20 μm or less; The present invention is intended for automobile steel sheets that require high stretch flange formability, and ferrite has an area ratio of 90%. If it is less than 100%, it becomes difficult to secure the necessary stretch flange workability. Therefore, the area ratio is set to 90% or more. Further, when a higher degree of stretch-flange formability is required, a ferrite fraction of 95% or more is desirable. Further, in order to secure good stretch-flange formability, which is a feature of the present invention, ferrite must have a fine structure with an average crystal grain size of 20 μm or less, preferably 15 μm or less. In addition to so-called polygonal ferrite, which does not include strain due to processing, ferrite also has a moderate increase in strength such as bainitic ferrite and acicular ferrite that do not include precipitation of carbides. Since it is a desirable structure with no decrease in γ, it falls into the category of ferrite.

In the present invention, since a good stretch flangeability can be ensured even if it is substantially a ferrite single phase, a ferrite single phase structure without the second phase may be used, but from the viewpoint of the balance between strength and ductility.

Hereinafter, the average particle diameter of the second phase is 10 μm or less; when the second phase is present, its shape is also an important factor. Unlike the cold-rolled steel sheet, the hot-rolled steel sheet has a smaller number of steps in which recrystallization can occur, so that the distribution form of the second phase is more likely to be layered (or strip-shaped). In this case, it was found that along this layered structure, initial cracking occurs or cracks propagate during processing during stretch flange forming.

The composition and the hot rolling conditions were widely changed, and the shape ratio and grain size (equivalent circle diameter) of the second phase structure were widely changed, and the stretch-flange formability was investigated. As a result, it became clear that when the shape ratio in the rolling direction of the second phase (also referred to as the L direction) and the plate thickness direction exceeds 3, the stretch flange formability is significantly reduced. Here, the second
The shape ratio between the rolling direction and the plate thickness direction of the phase is [(the maximum diameter in the rolling direction) / (the maximum diameter in the plate thickness direction) of the second phase crystal grains]
Say. It is desirable that not only the expansion in the rolling direction but also the expansion in the direction orthogonal to the rolling direction (also referred to as the c direction) is small, but the shape ratio between the rolling direction and the plate thickness direction is 3 or less. It is clear that it is sufficient to consider the shape ratio between the rolling direction and the plate thickness direction of the second phase as described above, because sufficient stretch-flange formability can be obtained by setting the range of 1 to 2 preferably. became. Further, even when they exist in the same fraction, the average particle diameter of the second phase is 10 μm or less, preferably 8 μm.
It was revealed that when it is m or less, a remarkable improvement in stretch flangeability is achieved.

The hot-rolled steel sheet of the present invention is manufactured as follows. The slab is preferably manufactured by a continuous casting method in order to prevent macrosegregation of components, but it can also be manufactured by an ingot making method or a thin slab casting method. Also, after manufacturing the slab, once cooled to room temperature, then in addition to the conventional method of heating again, without cooling, by inserting into the heating furnace as a hot piece, or after performing a slight heat retention, The hot-rolled steel sheet can be produced without any problems by energy-saving processes such as direct-feed rolling for immediate rolling and direct rolling. Particularly, in order to effectively secure N in a solid solution state, direct-feed rolling is one of the useful techniques.

The phase shape ratio can be 3 or less. However, when the finish rolling temperature is lower than 850 ° C., the second-phase structure becomes non-uniform in the presence of layers (strips), and the shape ratio of the second phase increases.

In order to obtain higher tensile strength, it is desirable to set the temperature to 600 ° C or lower. Although the lower limit is not strictly limited due to the material, if the temperature is lower than 200 ° C., the shape of the steel sheet will be significantly disturbed, and there is an increased possibility that a problem will occur during actual use.

Further, in the case of forming a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet, the hot-rolled steel sheet produced as described above may be pickled by a conventional method and then hot-dip galvanized. Usually, hot-dip galvanizing of steel strip is performed in a continuous hot-dip galvanizing line.
At that time, usually, a treatment for reducing the surface by heating is performed before hot dip galvanization, but if the heating temperature before hot dip galvanization exceeds 900 ° C., the ferrite phase and the second phase of the mother phase become coarse. Therefore, the heating temperature before hot dip galvanizing is set to 900 ° C. or less, because the stretch flangeability is significantly reduced. The heating temperature before hot dip galvanizing is preferably 700 ° C. or higher in order to sufficiently reduce the surface of the steel sheet before hot dip galvanizing and to prevent non-plating.

The steel sheet aimed at by the present invention is a hot-rolled thin steel sheet mainly used for automobile bodies, and naturally, improvement of the shape and dimensional accuracy of the steel sheet and homogenization of the material in the longitudinal and width directions of the steel sheet can be achieved. Required. For this purpose, in the hot rolling process, the continuous rolling technology that has been put into practical use is a very effective technology, and at the same time, the rolling temperature is made uniform in the longitudinal and width directions of the coil in order to make the material uniform. It is extremely effective to add a sheet bar edge heater or a sheet bar heater to be used. In cooling after rolling, the technique of masking the cooling water in the width direction to prevent overcooling of the edge part is also one of the important techniques from the viewpoint of material uniformity. It is very effective in securing the property and can be appropriately adopted as needed.

Hereinafter, the manufacturing conditions which are desirable to be supplementarily applied will be described. It is desirable to join the sheet bars to each other on the entry side of the finish rolling mill and continuously roll them. By continuously rolling, the so-called unsteady portion of rolling at the leading and trailing ends of the coil is eliminated, and stable hot rolling conditions can be achieved over the entire length and width of the coil. This is extremely effective not only for improving the shape and size of the cross section of the cold rolled steel sheet, but also for the hot rolled steel sheet. There is no particular restriction on the joining method at this time, and since the welding method, laser welding method, electron beam welding method, and other joining methods can be applied in the same manner, it is possible to keep the shape of the steel sheet in good condition. is there. From this point of view, it is desirable to apply continuous hot rolling.

Further, by performing continuous rolling, it is possible to stably pass the coil tip, and therefore lubrication rolling which cannot be applied from the viewpoint of stripability and biteability under ordinary single-shot batch rolling conditions is applied. be able to. As a result, the rolling load can be reduced, and at the same time, the surface pressure of the roll can be reduced, so that the life of the roll can be extended. From the above, continuous hot rolling is extremely effective for a thin hot-rolled steel sheet.

The edge portion is heated by the sheet bar edge heater and the sheet bar heater on the entry side of the finish rolling mill. First, it is desirable to compensate for the difference in rolling temperature in the width direction with an edge heater. The heating amount at this time is recommended to be a condition that the temperature difference in the final finish rolling is approximately 20 ° C. or less, but it varies depending on the steel composition and the like. Then, the sheet bar heater can make the temperature lowering portion of the tip end of the coil more uniform. In this case, the heating amount is recommended to be in the range of approximately 20 ° C. with respect to the central portion from the viewpoint of uniformizing the material. Lubricating rolling to reduce the load during hot working is also effective from the viewpoint of uniform shape and uniform material. The friction coefficient at this time is preferably in the range of 0.25 to 0.10. Further, it is desirable to apply the above-mentioned continuous rolling process from the viewpoint of operation stability of hot rolling.
