Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、自動車の構造部材・足廻り部材・パネル部材の使途に好適である常温保持中の品質劣化の少ない歪時効硬化型鋼板およびその製造方法に関するものであり、引張強度で250MPaから1500MPa程度の幅広い強度の鋼板に適用が可能である。本発明は塗装焼付処理工程を経て使用される建築物等の構造材料、缶用材料にも適用することが可能である。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
地球環境保護の観点から自動車が排出するCO2 軽減が重要な課題となっている。CO2 軽減のためには車体重量の軽減が有効であり、そのために鋼材高強度化のニーズが高まっている。ところが、一般的に材料の高強度化は形状凍結性の低下や成形時の割れといったプレス成形性の劣化を伴うことが知られており、加工性を低下させずに高強度化する方法が強く望まれていた。
【0003】
このような要望に対し、成形加工性を確保した上で高強度化を達成する技術として、成形加工時には軟質に保たれ、成形加工後の電着塗装焼付工程で起こる歪時効硬化現象を利用して降伏強度あるいは引張強度を増加させる、いわゆる焼付硬化性(Bake Hardenability: BH)を利用した技術が知られている。この種の鋼材は、成形加工時には炭素原子あるいは窒素原子を固溶させて成形性を確保しておき、電着塗装焼付工程において成形加工時に鋼材内に生じた転位に炭素原子あるいは窒素原子を固着させるか、あるいは転位上に炭化物あるいは窒化物を微細分散析出させることによって、降伏強度あるいは引張強度の上昇を図るものである。
【0004】
この一例として、特許文献1には極低炭素鋼に多量のNbとB、さらにはTiを複合添加して焼鈍後の組織をフェライト相と低温変態生成相との複合組織とし高r値、高BH、高延性および常温非時効性を兼ね備えた冷延鋼板が開示されている。しかしながら、この技術には以下のような実操業上の問題点を有する。
すなわち、1)このような多量のNb,BさらにはTiを含有する成分の鋼では、α→γ変態点が低下するわけではなく、複合組織を得るためには極めて高い温度の焼鈍が必須となり、連続焼鈍時に板破断等のトラブルの原因となること、2)α+γの温度領域が極めて狭いため、板幅方向に組織が変化し、結果として材質が大きくばらついたり、数℃の焼鈍温度の変化によって複合組織になる場合とならない場合があり、製造がきわめて不安定となる。近年の傾向として低温化が進みつつある塗装焼付工程には対応することが難しい。
【0005】
また特許文献2には、Nbを添加した極低炭素冷延鋼板において焼鈍後の冷却速度を制御することによって粒界中の炭素濃度を高めて、高BHと常温遅時効性との両立が可能であることが示されている。しかしながら、これによっても高BHと常温遅時効性とのバランスは十分とは言えず、延性の常温劣化も防ぐことはできない。また低温化が進みつつある塗装焼付工程には対応することも難しい。また特許文献3には、極低炭素鋼をベースに優れた焼付硬化性と常温非時効性を兼備した冷延鋼板と溶融亜鉛メッキ鋼板およびその製造方法が開示されている。しかしながら、所定の鋼成分、製造プロセスにおいて、所定の鋼成分において低温塗装焼付時のBH量と常温遅時効性と常温での耐伸び劣化性のバランスは十分とは言えない。
【0006】
また特許文献4には、組織を高温変態フェライト相と低温変態フェライト相とすることにより常温非時効性を有する高張力冷延鋼板およびその製造方法が開示されている。しかしながら、TSで400MPa以上の高張力鋼にしか適用できず、さらにNをBH特性増加に積極的に利用しないことから低温焼付処理での時効硬化量が安定的に得られず、また常温時効中の伸び劣化とBH量とのバランスが不十分であるという問題点を有していた。
【0007】
また特許文献5には、固溶状態のCおよびN量とフェライト結晶粒径を制御することにより降伏応力と引張強度の双方を上昇させた歪時効硬化特性、耐衝撃性および加工性に優れた高張力冷延鋼板およびその製造方法が提案されている。
また特許文献6には、フェライト粒径を制御した、固溶N利用型の耐衝撃性に優れた高張力熱延鋼板およびその製造方法が提案されている。
また特許文献7には、加工性および歪み時効硬化特性に優れた高張力溶融亜鉛めっき鋼板およびその製造方法が提案されている。
しかし、これらの方法は高いBH特性を得ることは可能であるものの、常温非時効性および伸びの常温劣化性とのバランスが悪いという問題を有していた。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上記の如き実状に鑑みてなされたものであって、電着塗装工程を経て作られる自動車用の構造部材・足廻り部材・パネル部材用途、建築用の構造部材、電機製品の内外板パネルに好適な、低温塗装焼付温度でも高BH性を有し、さらに常温保管時における伸び劣化と降伏点伸び発生が少ない焼付硬化型鋼板およびその製造方法を提供することを目的とする。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記の課題を達成するために、はじめに低温塗装焼付温度でも高BHが得られる方法について研究を進めた。その結果、適正量の固溶Nを含有させ、かつ固溶C量を低く抑えることが有効であることを見出した。
次いで発明者らは、Nをベースとした鋼の常温での降伏点伸びの発生を抑制するための方法について検討を重ねた。常温保持時において降伏点伸びの発生が抑制される特性は常温遅時効性、耐常温時効性、非時効性と呼ばれ、固溶状態のCまたはN原子の常温保持中の拡散を防止し、降伏強度に寄与する自由転位を残存させることによりこの特性を引き出すことができると言われている。
【0011】
そこで本発明者らは、N原子の拡散を遅延する方法について鋭意検討を重ねた結果、適正量のCrを添加することによりN原子の拡散を抑制することができ、その結果、常温保持時における降伏点伸びの発生すなわちストレッチャーストレインの発生を抑制できることを見出した。
【0012】
次いで発明者らは、常温保持時における伸びの劣化原因を明らかにすべく研究を行った。なぜなら常温保持中において降伏点伸びの発生を抑制できた場合でも、破断伸びあるいは全伸びで代表される伸び値が大幅に低下する場合が多く、その結果、成形できる形状が大幅に制限される場合が多いからである。
そこで、発明者らは常温保持時に伸びの劣化が生じる原因を解析した結果、降伏点伸びの発生とは異なるメカニズムで伸び劣化が起こっていることを突き止めた。即ち、常温保持中のCあるいはN原子が粒界に拡散し、非常に微細な炭窒化物の析出およびクラスタリングが起こることがその原因であることを知見した。
【0013】
次いで発明者らは、N原子の粒界への拡散と炭窒化物の析出を同時に抑制する方法について鋭意研究を進めた結果、フェライトベースの組織において適正量のCrとOを添加し、さらに鋼中のCr/N比を適正に制御することが有効であるという全く新しい知見を見出し、本発明に至った。
【0014】

【発明の実施の形態】
以下に、本発明について詳細に説明する。
まず成分の限定理由について説明する。成分含有量は質量%である。
C:Cは鋼の歪時効硬化の発現およびミクロ組織の制御に必須の添加元素である。しかし、0.2%を超えると常温で非時効化することが難しくなり、また溶接性も低下する。このため本発明ではCの範囲を0.2%以下に限定した。下限は特に限定することなく本発明の効果を奏することができるが、製鋼のコスト上0.0001%以上とすることが好ましい。
【0019】
Si:Siは鋼材のミクロ組織および強度の調整に用いられる。しかしながら、0.7%を超えると低温塗装焼付温度で40MPa以上の得ることが難しくなり、また化成処理性やめっきの密着性が悪くなる。従ってSi含有量を0.7%以下の範囲に制限した。0.5%以下がより好ましい範囲である。下限は特に限定することなく本発明の効果を奏することができるが、不純物として不可避的に0.001%以上含有する場合が多い。
【0020】
Mn:Mnは鋼材のミクロ組織および強度の調整に用いられる。しかしながら、3.0%を超えると成形加工性の劣化を招く。従ってMn含有量を3.0%以下の範囲に制限した。Sの熱間脆性を抑制させる意味では、0.005%以上の添加が望ましい。
【0021】
P:Pは熱延組織の微細化能を有し、また強力な固溶強化元素であることから鋼材の強度の調整に用いられる。ただし、添加量が0.1%を超えると、スポット溶接後の疲労強度が劣悪となったり、降伏強度が増加し過ぎてプレス時に面形状不良を引き起こす。さらに、連続溶融亜鉛メッキ時に合金化反応が極めて遅くなり、生産性が低下する。また2次加工性も劣化する。また、0.1%を超えると成形加工時の割れを起こす可能性があるので、P含有量の範囲を0.1%以下に制限した。下限は特に限定することなく本発明の効果を奏することができるが、不純物として不可避的に0.001%以上含有する場合が多い。
【0022】
S:SはMnS、CuSとして鋼中に存在させ、結晶粒径の制御を通じて鋼材の強度・延性の調整に用いられる。しかしながら、0.02%を超えると熱間脆性を起こす可能性があるので、その範囲を0.02%以下に限定した。下限は特に限定することなく本発明の効果を奏することができるが、不純物として不可避的に0.0001%以上含有する場合が多い。
【0023】
N:Nは鋼の歪み時効硬化の発現およびミクロ組織の制御に必須の添加元素である。しかし、0.0030%未満であると低温での塗装焼付硬化量40MPa以上およびBH150/BH170:0.9以上を達成できない。また0.018%を超えると、BHと常温遅時効性および耐延性劣化を両立することが困難になる。このため本発明ではNの範囲を0.0030〜0.018%に限定した。
【0024】
Cr:Crは本発明における重要元素の一つである。0.2%以上のCr添加によって、初めて高BH性と常温保持中の降伏点伸びの発生抑制および伸び劣化の抑制を両立することが可能となる。これらの元素によって高BHと耐常温時効性が向上する機構は必ずしも明らかではないが、以下のように推察される。
すなわち、常温付近ではこれらの元素とNとがペアやクラスターを形成し、Nの拡散を抑えるため耐常温時効性が確保されるのに対して、150〜170℃での塗装焼付処理を行う温度域においては、Nがこれらのペアやクラスターから脱出し、転位を固着するため高BH性が発現する。Cr含有量が1.5%を超えると、製造工程中に微細なCr炭窒化物が形成し、BH150=40MPa以上を達成することが困難になる。従ってCr添加の範囲を0.2〜1.5%に制限した。なお、めっき性やより良好なBH特性と常温での耐伸び劣化性のバランスを得るためには、0.3〜1.2%がより好ましい範囲である。 ここで、Cr量の下限値は、本発明の実施例である表1の鋼No.CのCr量が0.5%であることに基づいて、0.5%とする。一方、Cr量の上限値は、表1の鋼No.AのCr量が0.9%であることに基づいて、0.9%とする。
【0025】
Cr/N比:Nの拡散を抑制し、さらに常温保持中の炭窒化物の析出を抑制するためには、添加N量に比べて多量のCrが鋼中に存在していることが必要である。Cr/Nが25未満であるとその抑制効果が小さく、100℃×1hrの促進時効による全伸びの低下量:3%以下、降伏点伸びの増加量が0.6%以下を達成することができない。従ってCr/N量の範囲を25以上に限定した。
より安定的に常温時効中の全伸び劣化の抑制効果と降伏点伸び発現の抑制を図るという観点で、40以上であることがより好ましい。なお、上限は特に定めないが、高いN含有量の場合にはCrも多量添加するとCrが窒化物として析出し、その結果BH150=40MPa以上を満足しない場合があるので、Nが0.01%以上の時には、Cr/N比は100以下であることが望ましい。
【0026】
Al:Alは鋼材のミクロ組織および強度の調整に用いられ、また脱酸調製元素として使用しても良い。ただし、AlはNと結合しAlNを形成する結果、BH性が低下するので、その添加は製造技術上無理のない範囲で必要最小限にとどめることが望ましい。Al量が0.020%を超えるとAlN析出が起こり、固溶Nがこの析出物に吸収される結果、BH150=40MPa以上を達成することができない。従ってAl量の範囲0.020%以下に制限した。
なお、高いBHと常温での伸び劣化抑制を両立するという観点からは、Al量の範囲は0.014%以下がより好ましく、0.0050%以下がさらに好ましい上限である。なお、後述のようにAl系の酸化物と鉄の界面はNの拡散トラップサイトとなるが、0.0025%未満の添加であるとであると酸化物の密度が十分でなくなる。従って常温遅時効性を充分に得るためには、Al含有量の範囲を0.0025%以上とすることが好ましい。
【0027】
O:Oは本発明において重要な元素の一つである。Crを適正量添加した上でOを所定の量に制御することによって、常温遅時効性と耐伸び劣化性が顕著に改善される。この理由は必ずしも明らかではないが、酸化物の周辺の歪み場にCrとNが優先的に偏析し、上述したように、Crが常温でNの拡散を抑制する効果を助長し、さらに粒界での炭窒化物析出を抑制しているものと推察される。
O量は、0.0010%以上とすることでこのような効果が明確になるためこれを下限とする。一方でOが0.02%を超えると、このような効果が飽和する傾向となるだけでなく、r値が劣化するため0.02%を上限とする。Nの拡散と粒界炭窒化物の析出を抑制するという観点からは0.0050%以上の添加がより好ましいOの範囲である。
【0028】
Oは通常はFeの酸化物として存在するが、Al、Zr、Mg、Si、Mn、Ti、Nb、La、Ceなどの酸化物またはそれらの複合酸化物として存在しても構わない。また、酸化物の形態やサイズ、分布は特に限定しないが、表面積を大きくする観点で球状が好ましく、その鋼中に占める体積分率で1×10-5以上、平均酸化物直径は0.8μm以下であることが好ましい。これらの要件はいずれもCrとNの偏析に有効なサイトを極力増加させる観点に立つものである。
【0029】
固溶C量:CrあるいはOを適正量添加しても、固溶C量が0.0040%を超えるとBHと常温遅時効性あるいは耐伸び劣化性の両立を図ることが困難になる。従ってその適正範囲を0.0040%以下、好ましくは0.0030%以下に制限した。
【0030】
固溶N量:固溶Nを積極的に利用することにより、低温塗装焼付条件でも大きな歪み時効硬化を得ることができる。固溶N量が0.0015%未満であるとBH150=40MPa以上を達成することができず、また0.0085%を超えると、BHと常温遅時効あるいは耐伸び劣化性の両立を図ることが困難になる。従ってその適正範囲を0.0015〜0.0085%に制限した。なお、より好ましい上限は0.0065%以下である。
【0031】
固溶C量+12/14×(固溶N量):固溶C量+12/14×(固溶N量)が0.0020%未満であると、BH150=40MPa以上を達成することができず、また0.012%を超えると、BHと常温遅時効あるいは常温延性劣化の両立を図ることが困難になる。従ってその適正範囲を0.0020〜0.012%に制限した。なお、より好ましい上限は0.0080%以下である。
【0032】
本発明では、上記した組成に加えて、更にa群〜e群のうちの1群または2群以上を含有しても、本発明の目的を達成することができる。
a群:Mo、Wの1種または2種の合計を0.1〜1.0%。
Mo、Wは炭窒化物形成元素であり、これらの元素の合計を0.1%以上含有することにより、熱間圧延中、冷却中、あるいは一次熱処理工程中に主に炭窒化物として析出させることで、鋼材の強度を調整するのに用いられる。しかしながら、合計で1.0%を超えると炭窒化物の析出量が多くなり、BH150=40MPa以上を得ることが難しくなり、また成形加工性の劣化も招く。従ってその合計量の範囲を0.1〜1.0%とした。
【0033】
b群:Nb、Ti、V、Taのうち1種または2種以上の合計を0.001〜0.2%。
Nb、Ti、V、Taは炭窒化物形成元素であり、鋼材のミクロ組織およびC量、N量を調整するのに用いられるので、1種又は2種以上の合計を0.001%以上含有することが好ましい。しかしながら合計で0.2%を超えると、炭窒化物の析出量が多くなり、BH150=40MPa以上を得ることが難しくなり、0.001%以下では添加効果が現れない。従ってその合計量の範囲を0.001〜0.2%とした。
【0034】
c群:Cu、Niのうち1種または2種の合計を:0.1〜4.0%以下。
CuとNiはミクロ組織および強度の制御に用いられるので、0.1%以上含有することが好ましい。しかしながら、添加量が4.0%を超えると熱間加工割れが起こり、またコスト的にも割高になる。従ってその適正添加範囲を4.0%以下、好ましくは3.0%以下に限定した。
【0035】
d群:Bを0.0003〜0.010%。
Bは0.0003%以上含有することにより粒界に偏析し、Pによる2次加工割れを抑制する効果があり、さらに成形加工性を改善させる効果がある。しかし、0.010%を超えると粒界に粗大析出物を形成して、加工割れが発生する。従ってその範囲を0.0003〜0.010%と限定した。
【0036】
e群:Ca、Mg、Zr、REMのうち1種または2種以上を合計で0.001〜0.01%。
Ca、Mg、ZrおよびREMは介在物の形態、分布の制御に用いる元素であり、1種又は2種以上を合計で0.001%以上含有することが好ましい。しかしながら合計の含有量が0.01%を超えると、成形加工性の悪化の原因となる。そのため合計量の範囲を0.001〜0.01%とした。なお、本発明において、REMとはLaおよびランタノイド系列の元素を指すものとする。
【0037】
本発明に係る鋼板はCrおよびOの効果を十分に発現させるために、フェライト面積率を80%以上、できれば95%以上とすることが好ましい。なお本発明においては、ポリゴナルフェライトの分率が100%の時に最も良好なBHと常温遅時効性と耐常温延性劣化のバランスが得られる。
【0038】
なお、本発明において「フェライト」とは、ISIJ international 35巻(1995)941〜944頁に示すような、ポリゴナルフェライト、擬ポリゴナルフェライトあるいはM/A複合体を含むグラニュラーベイニティックフェライトを指す。フェライト以外の残部組織はマルテンサイト、オーステナイト、ラス状ベイナイト、パーライトの1種又は2種以上を含有しても良い。なお、フェライトの平均結晶粒径は常温での伸び劣化を効果的に防止する観点から、8μm以上であることが望ましい。
【0039】
次に、BH量と常温時効による降伏伸び変化量と全伸びの変化量の限定理由について説明する。
本発明によって得られる鋼板は、BH150が40MPa以上、およびBH150/BH170が0.9以上である。本発明では、BH150が60MPa以上でも常温遅時効性と常温耐伸び劣化性を両立することが可能である。BHの上限は特に限定しないが、BH150が100MPaを超えると耐常温時効性を確保することが困難となる。
なおBH150およびBH170は、5%引張予変形後、150℃および170℃にて20分間の熱処理を施した後、再引張を行った際に、再引張時における下部降伏応力と予変形時の最大応力の差で評価されるBHを表す。
【0040】
常温遅時効性は、人工時効後の降伏点伸びによって評価するのが簡易で好適である。本発明によって得られる鋼板は、100℃にて1時間熱処理後の引張試験による降伏点伸びの増加量が0.6%以下で、さらに好ましくは0.3%以下である。
また本発明によって得られる鋼板は、100℃にて1時間熱処理後の引張試験による全伸びの低下量が3.0%以下、好ましくは2.0%以下である。
なお、本発明では低温の塗装焼付条件として、150℃×20分の熱処理を選択しているが、本発明が有効な成形加工後の焼付塗装温度T(℃)は、120℃以上であり、また焼付時間t(分)は、T・ln(t)>250以上であれば本発明の目的を達成することができる。

次に、製造方法の限定理由について説明する。
熱間圧延に供するスラブは特に限定するものではない。すなわち、連続鋳造スラブや薄スラブキャスターなどで製造したものであればよい。また、鋳造後に直ちに熱間圧延を行う連続鋳造−直接圧延(CC−DR)のようなプロセスにも適合する。
【0042】
熱延鋼板を最終製品とする場合には、以下のように製造条件を限定する必要がある。すなわち、熱延の仕上げ温度は、(Ar3 −150)℃以上とする。(Ar3 −150)℃未満では、加工性を確保するのが困難であったり板厚精度の問題を生じたりする。Ar3 点以上がより好ましい範囲である。仕上げ温度の上限は特に定めることなく本発明の効果を得ることができるが、r値を確保するためには1000℃以下とすることが好ましい。
なお、熱延の加熱温度は特に限定するものではないが、固溶Nを確保するために窒化物を溶解させる必要のある場合には、1150℃以上とすることが望ましい。
【0043】
熱延後はCr含有量に応じて、680℃から少なくとも550℃までの間は、平均冷却速度が2.5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上となるように冷却する必要がある。ここでCr含有量は質量%で表される量である。この温度域はCr炭窒化物の析出が急速に起こる温度域に相当し、これによってCr炭窒化物の析出が抑制され、BHに寄与する固溶Cあるいは固溶N量を調整する。高BH化という観点からは、冷却速度が5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上がより好ましい。
平均冷却速度の上限は特に定めないが、あまり高すぎると組織が不均一になりやすいので1000℃/s以下とすることが好ましい。また550℃未満の温度域の冷却速度は特に制限しないが、1℃/s以上であることが好ましい条件である。
【0044】
巻取を行う場合は、巻取温度が550℃を超えると炭窒化物の析出が起こり、BH150=40MPaを達成することが困難となる。従ってその範囲を550℃以下に制限した。巻取り温度の下限は特に限定せず室温でも構わないが、後述の温度域で滞留時間を確保するため、100〜300℃とすることが熱効率上好ましい。
巻取りを行わない場合、550℃〜室温までの何れの温度まで冷却しても構わない。
【0045】
冷却あるいは巻取後は100〜300℃間で20s以上滞留させる。詳細なメカニズムは定かではないが、この工程中にCr原子と固溶NあるいはCr原子と固溶C原子とのペアリングが起こり、さらに酸化物周囲へのNあるいはCの偏析が起こると考えられ、常温保持中の降伏点伸び発現抑制および全伸び劣化抑制を得るために必須の工程である。100〜300℃間が結晶粒内において以上の原子移動を最も迅速に起こさせるための温度域であり、この温度範囲内の滞留時間が20s未満ではBH性と常温遅時効性および耐常温延性劣化のバランスを達成することができない。従って、滞留時間の範囲を20s以上に制限した。
なお、より優れた常温遅時効性および耐常温延性劣化特性を得るという観点からは、60s以上の保持がより好ましい。滞留時間の上限については特に定めないが、60000sを超えると粒界への粗大炭窒化物の析出が起こり、高BHが得られない場合があり、また伸び値が顕著に低下するので、その上限としては60000s以下であることが好ましい。
熱延後は必要に応じて酸洗し、その後インラインまたはオフラインで圧下率3%以下の調質圧延または圧下率40%程度までの冷間圧延を施しても構わない。
【0046】
次に冷延板あるいはめっき板を最終製品とする場合の製造条件について示す。素材である熱延板の製造条件は特に規定する必要はなく、常法に従って行えばよい。続いて酸洗等の通常公知の処理を行い、冷間圧延を行う。
冷間圧延の条件については、圧延パスの回数、圧下率については特に規定する必要はなく常法に従えばよい。ただし、冷間圧延の圧下率が90%超では設備への負荷が過大となり、さらに製品の機械的性質の異方性が大きくなるので、90%以下であることが好ましい。
【0047】
連続焼鈍工程又は連続焼鈍及びめっき工程における加熱速度については常法に従えばよい。一次熱処理時の最高到達温度については、(Ac3 −150)℃未満では再結晶が完了せず、加工性が劣悪となる。一方、一次熱処理温度が(Ac3 +120)℃を超えると、転位密度の高い組織あるいは第2相分率が大きくなり、BH性と常温遅時効性および耐常温延性劣化特性を両立することが困難になる。従って一次熱処理の最高到達温度の範囲を(Ac3 −150)〜(Ac3 +120)℃に制限した。
【0048】
一次熱処理終了後、680℃から550℃までは、Cr含有量に応じて680℃から少なくとも550℃までの間は、平均冷却速度が2.5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上となるような冷却を行なう。この温度域はCr炭窒化物の析出が急速に起こる温度域に相当し、これによって炭窒化物の析出が抑制され、BHに寄与する固溶Cあるいは固溶N量を調整する。
高BH化という観点からは、平均冷却速度が5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上がより好ましい。平均冷却速度の上限は特に定めないが、あまり高すぎると組織が不均一になりやすいので1000℃/s以下とすることが好ましい。
【0049】
溶融亜鉛めっきを施す場合には、一次熱処理後、少なくとも680℃から550℃までの平均冷却速度が2.5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上、好ましくは5×(Cr含有量)+2.5℃/s以上、更に好ましくは10℃/s以上となるような冷却を施した後、亜鉛めっきを行い、その後必要に応じてめっき相の合金化処理を行う。亜鉛めっきおよび合金化の条件は特に定めないが、添加したNあるいはCの粒界への析出を抑止する観点からめっき浴中への浸漬時間および合金化炉中の保持時間はそれぞれ40s以下、より好ましくは20s以下であることが好ましい。
溶融亜鉛めっきを施さない場合は、1次熱処理後、上記の550℃までの冷却をした後は、過時効処理として550℃〜室温までの何れの温度まで冷却しても構わない。
【0050】
1次熱処理後、あるいは過時効帯を利用した熱処理後、あるいはめっき処理後(合金化処理後も含む)に100〜300℃間の滞留時間が20s以上である冷却を行う。なお、過時効処理を行なう場合には、前述の温度域で滞留時間を確保するため、100〜300℃とすることが熱効率上好ましい。なお、100〜300℃間の滞留時間が20s以上である冷却工程は、上に述べたように常温保持中の降伏点伸び発現抑制および全伸び劣化抑制を得るために必須の工程である。100〜300℃間は結晶粒内において以上の原子移動を最も迅速に起こさせるための温度域であり、この温度範囲内の滞留時間が20s未満では、BH性と常温遅時効性および耐常温延性劣化のバランスを達成することができない。従って滞留時間の範囲を20s以上に制限した。
なお、より優れた常温遅時効性および常温耐伸び劣化性を得るという観点からは、60s以上の保持がより好ましい。滞留時間の上限については特に定めないが、60000sを超えると粒界への粗大炭窒化物の析出が起こり、高BHが得られない場合があり、また伸び値が顕著に低下するので、その上限としては60000s以下であることが好ましい。
【0051】
調質圧延は、常温遅時効性の向上と形状強制のために行い、圧下率3%以下の範囲で行うのがよい。3%を超えると常温保持中の全伸びの劣化量が大きくなる傾向があるので、これを上限とする。
【0052】
1次熱処理後にめっき工程あるいはめっき合金化工程を経ずに作られた本発明の冷延鋼板は、各種めっき用原材として好適である。めっき層の形成は電気めっき法、溶融めっき法のいずれでも良く、めっきの主成分としては亜鉛、クロム、錫、ニッケルが例として挙げられる。
【0053】
固溶N量はJISA5523に記述のN定量方法に準じて、ろ液を分析することにより求める。また固溶C量は、初めに全C量を求め、次いで試料を適切な電解液、例えばテトラメチルアンモニウムクロリド+アセチルアセトン混合液で電解した後、十分に洗浄した抽出残渣を酸素気流中高周波燃焼赤外線吸収法により分析しこれを析出C量とし、最後に全C量から析出C量を引くことにより求める。不溶解残さをろ過するフィルターとしてはAgを使用するのが好適である。
【0054】
なお、固溶C量および固溶N量はアトムプローブ電界イオン顕微鏡法により測定することも可能である。この場合、データを3次元原子マップで表示した時に1nm3 の体積の中に炭素原子と窒素原子が合計で5個以上含む領域を集合体と判断し、これを除いた領域のマトリックス中の平均CあるいはN濃度を固溶C量あるいは固溶N量とする方法が簡易である。なお、固溶C量あるいは固溶N量を内部摩擦法で定量することも可能であるが、スネークピークの高さは添加した合金元素の量により変化してしまうため、固溶C量あるいは固溶N量の測定法としては好ましくない。
【0055】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a strain age-hardening type steel sheet having a low quality deterioration during normal temperature holding, which is suitable for the use of structural members, suspension members and panel members of automobiles, and a method for producing the same, and a tensile strength of about 250 MPa to 1500 MPa. It can be applied to a wide range of strength steel plates. The present invention can also be applied to structural materials such as buildings and can materials used through a paint baking process.
[0002]
[Prior art]
CO emissions from automobiles from the viewpoint of global environmental protection2Mitigation is an important issue. CO2Reduction of the weight of the vehicle body is effective for the reduction, and for that reason, there is a growing need for higher strength steel materials. However, it is generally known that increasing the strength of a material is accompanied by deterioration of press formability such as a decrease in shape freezing property and cracking during molding, and there is a strong method of increasing the strength without reducing workability. It was desired.
[0003]
In response to such demands, as a technology to achieve high strength while ensuring molding processability, the strain age hardening phenomenon that occurs during the electrodeposition coating baking process after molding is used, which is kept soft during molding. A technique using so-called bake hardenability (BH) that increases yield strength or tensile strength is known. In this type of steel, carbon or nitrogen atoms are dissolved during forming to ensure formability, and in the electrodeposition coating baking process, carbon or nitrogen atoms are fixed to dislocations generated in the steel during forming. Or yield strength or tensile strength is increased by finely dispersing and depositing carbide or nitride on the dislocations.
[0004]
As an example of this, Patent Document 1 discloses that a structure after annealing by adding a large amount of Nb and B and further Ti to a very low carbon steel is a composite structure of a ferrite phase and a low temperature transformation generation phase, and has a high r value and a high value. A cold-rolled steel sheet having BH, high ductility and non-aging at room temperature is disclosed. However, this technique has the following problems in actual operation.
That is, 1) In such steels containing a large amount of Nb, B and Ti, the α → γ transformation point does not decrease, and in order to obtain a composite structure, extremely high temperature annealing is essential. 2) Since the temperature range of α + γ is extremely narrow, the structure changes in the width direction of the plate, resulting in large variations in the material and a change in the annealing temperature of several degrees Celsius. Depending on the case, it may or may not become a composite structure, and the production becomes extremely unstable. As a recent trend, it is difficult to cope with a paint baking process in which the temperature is decreasing.
[0005]
Patent Document 2 discloses that the carbon concentration in the grain boundary can be increased by controlling the cooling rate after annealing in the ultra-low carbon cold-rolled steel sheet to which Nb is added, so that both high BH and room temperature slow aging can be achieved. It is shown that. However, this also does not provide a sufficient balance between high BH and room temperature slow aging, and cannot prevent ductility from deteriorating at room temperature. It is also difficult to cope with the paint baking process where the temperature is being lowered. Patent Document 3 discloses a cold-rolled steel sheet, a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet, and a method for producing the same, both having excellent bake hardenability and non-aging at room temperature, based on ultra-low carbon steel. However, in a predetermined steel component and manufacturing process, it cannot be said that the balance between the BH amount at the time of baking at low temperature coating, the room temperature slow aging property, and the resistance to elongation deterioration at room temperature is sufficient.
[0006]
Patent Document 4 discloses a high-tensile cold-rolled steel sheet having a normal temperature non-aging property by making the structure a high-temperature transformation ferrite phase and a low-temperature transformation ferrite phase, and a method for producing the same. However, it can only be applied to high-tensile steels with a TS of 400 MPa or more, and since N is not actively used to increase BH properties, the age hardening amount in the low-temperature baking treatment cannot be stably obtained, and the room temperature is aging. There is a problem that the balance between the deterioration of elongation and the amount of BH is insufficient.
[0007]
In Patent Document 5, the amount of C and N in the solid solution state and the ferrite crystal grain size are controlled, and both the strain age hardening property, the impact resistance, and the workability are improved by increasing both the yield stress and the tensile strength. A high-tensile cold-rolled steel sheet and a manufacturing method thereof have been proposed.
Patent Document 6 proposes a high-strength hot-rolled steel sheet having a controlled particle diameter of ferrite and excellent impact resistance of a solute N-utilization type and a method for producing the same.
Patent Document 7 proposes a high-tensile hot-dip galvanized steel sheet excellent in workability and strain age hardening characteristics and a method for producing the same.
However, although these methods can obtain high BH characteristics, they have a problem that the balance between room temperature non-aging property and room temperature deterioration property of elongation is poor.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in view of the actual situation as described above, and is used for automotive structural members, suspension members, panel members, architectural structural members, and inner and outer plates of electrical products, which are made through an electrodeposition coating process. It is an object of the present invention to provide a bake-hardening type steel sheet suitable for a panel, having a high BH property even at a low-temperature paint baking temperature, and having less elongation deterioration and yield point elongation during storage at room temperature, and a method for producing the same.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have advanced research on a method for obtaining high BH even at a low-temperature coating baking temperature. As a result, it was found that it is effective to contain an appropriate amount of solid solution N and to keep the amount of solid solution C low.
Next, the inventors repeatedly investigated a method for suppressing the occurrence of yield point elongation of N-based steel at room temperature. The property that suppresses the occurrence of yield point elongation at room temperature is called room temperature slow aging, room temperature aging resistance, non-aging, and prevents diffusion of C or N atoms in solid solution during room temperature maintenance. It is said that this characteristic can be derived by leaving free dislocations that contribute to the yield strength.
[0011]
Therefore, as a result of intensive studies on the method for delaying the diffusion of N atoms, the present inventors can suppress the diffusion of N atoms by adding an appropriate amount of Cr, and as a result, at the time of holding at room temperature. It was found that the yield point elongation, that is, the stretcher strain, can be suppressed.
[0012]
Next, the inventors conducted research to clarify the cause of elongation degradation when kept at room temperature. Because even when yield point elongation can be suppressed during normal temperature holding, the elongation value represented by breaking elongation or total elongation often decreases significantly, and as a result, the shape that can be molded is greatly limited. Because there are many.
Thus, the inventors have analyzed the cause of the deterioration of elongation when kept at room temperature, and as a result, have found that the elongation deterioration is caused by a mechanism different from the occurrence of yield point elongation. That is, it has been found that the reason is that C or N atoms kept at room temperature diffuse into the grain boundary, and precipitation and clustering of very fine carbonitride occur.
[0013]
Next, as a result of diligent research on the method of simultaneously suppressing the diffusion of N atoms to the grain boundaries and the precipitation of carbonitrides, the inventors added appropriate amounts of Cr and O in a ferrite-based structure, The present inventors have found a completely new finding that it is effective to appropriately control the Cr / N ratio therein, and have reached the present invention.

[0018]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is described in detail below.
First, the reasons for limiting the components will be described. The component content is% by mass.
C: C is an additive element essential for the development of strain age hardening of steel and the control of the microstructure. However, if it exceeds 0.2%, it will be difficult to non-age at room temperature, and weldability will also deteriorate. Therefore, in the present invention, the range of C is limited to 0.2% or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, and the effects of the present invention can be achieved. However, the lower limit is preferably 0.0001% or more in terms of steelmaking costs.
[0019]
Si: Si is used to adjust the microstructure and strength of steel. However, if it exceeds 0.7%, it will be difficult to obtain 40 MPa or more at the low-temperature coating baking temperature, and the chemical conversion property and the adhesion of plating will be deteriorated. Therefore, the Si content is limited to a range of 0.7% or less. 0.5% or less is a more preferable range. The lower limit is not particularly limited, and the effects of the present invention can be achieved. However, the lower limit is inevitably contained as 0.001% or more in many cases.
[0020]
Mn: Mn is used to adjust the microstructure and strength of the steel material. However, if it exceeds 3.0%, the moldability deteriorates. Therefore, the Mn content is limited to a range of 3.0% or less. In order to suppress the hot brittleness of S, 0.005% or more is desirable.
[0021]
P: P has the ability to refine a hot-rolled structure and is a strong solid solution strengthening element, so it is used for adjusting the strength of steel. However, if the addition amount exceeds 0.1%, the fatigue strength after spot welding becomes poor, or the yield strength increases excessively, causing surface shape defects during pressing. Furthermore, the alloying reaction becomes extremely slow during continuous hot dip galvanizing, and productivity is lowered. Also, the secondary workability is deteriorated. Moreover, since it may cause the crack at the time of a shaping | molding process if it exceeds 0.1%, the range of P content was restrict | limited to 0.1% or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, and the effects of the present invention can be achieved. However, the lower limit is inevitably contained as 0.001% or more in many cases.
[0022]
S: S is present in steel as MnS and CuS, and is used to adjust the strength and ductility of the steel material through control of the crystal grain size. However, if it exceeds 0.02%, hot brittleness may occur, so the range was limited to 0.02% or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, and the effects of the present invention can be achieved. However, the lower limit is inevitably contained in an amount of 0.0001% or more.
[0023]
N: N is an additive element essential for the development of strain age hardening of steel and the control of microstructure. However, if it is less than 0.0030%, it is not possible to achieve a coating bake hardening amount at a low temperature of 40 MPa or more and BH150 / BH170: 0.9 or more. On the other hand, if it exceeds 0.018%, it becomes difficult to achieve both BH and room temperature slow aging and ductility deterioration. For this reason, in the present invention, the range of N is limited to 0.0030 to 0.018%.
[0024]
  Cr: Cr is one of the important elements in the present invention. By adding 0.2% or more of Cr, it becomes possible for the first time to achieve both high BH properties, suppression of yield point elongation during normal temperature holding, and suppression of elongation deterioration. The mechanism by which these elements improve high BH and room temperature aging resistance is not necessarily clear, but is presumed as follows.
  That is, near the normal temperature, these elements and N form a pair or cluster, and the normal temperature aging resistance is secured in order to suppress the diffusion of N, whereas the temperature at which the coating baking process is performed at 150 to 170 ° C. In the region, N escapes from these pairs and clusters and anchors the dislocation, so that a high BH property is expressed. If the Cr content exceeds 1.5%, fine Cr carbonitrides are formed during the production process, making it difficult to achieve BH150 = 40 MPa or more. Therefore, the range of Cr addition was limited to 0.2 to 1.5%. In order to obtain a balance between plating properties and better BH characteristics and elongation resistance at room temperature, 0.3 to 1.2% is a more preferable range.Here, the lower limit of the Cr amount is the steel No. in Table 1 which is an example of the present invention. Based on the fact that the Cr content of C is 0.5%, the content is set to 0.5%. On the other hand, the upper limit of the Cr amount is the steel No. 1 in Table 1. Based on the fact that the Cr content of A is 0.9%, the content is set to 0.9%.

Cr / N ratio: In order to suppress the diffusion of N and further suppress the precipitation of carbonitrides at room temperature, it is necessary that a larger amount of Cr is present in the steel than the amount of added N. is there. If Cr / N is less than 25, the suppression effect is small, and the amount of decrease in total elongation due to accelerated aging at 100 ° C. × 1 hr: 3% or less, and the increase in yield point elongation is 0.6% or less. Can not. Therefore, the range of Cr / N amount was limited to 25 or more.
It is more preferably 40 or more from the viewpoint of more stably suppressing deterioration of the total elongation during normal temperature aging and suppressing the development of yield point elongation. Although the upper limit is not particularly defined, when a large amount of N is added, if a large amount of Cr is also added, Cr precipitates as a nitride, and as a result, BH150 = 40 MPa or more may not be satisfied. At the above time, the Cr / N ratio is desirably 100 or less.
[0026]
Al: Al is used for adjusting the microstructure and strength of the steel material, and may be used as a deoxidizing preparation element. However, since Al binds to N to form AlN, resulting in a decrease in BH properties, it is desirable that the addition be kept to the minimum necessary within the range of reasonable manufacturing techniques. When the amount of Al exceeds 0.020%, AlN precipitation occurs, and as a result of solute N being absorbed by the precipitate, BH150 = 40 MPa or more cannot be achieved. Accordingly, the Al content is limited to 0.020% or less.
In addition, from the viewpoint of achieving both high BH and suppression of elongation deterioration at room temperature, the range of Al content is more preferably 0.014% or less, and further preferably 0.0050% or less. As will be described later, the interface between the Al-based oxide and iron becomes a diffusion trap site of N, but if the addition is less than 0.0025%, the oxide density is not sufficient. Therefore, in order to sufficiently obtain normal temperature slow aging, the Al content is preferably set to 0.0025% or more.
[0027]
O: O is one of the important elements in the present invention. By adding an appropriate amount of Cr and controlling O to a predetermined amount, the room temperature slow aging property and the elongation deterioration resistance are remarkably improved. The reason for this is not necessarily clear, but Cr and N are preferentially segregated in the strain field around the oxide, and as described above, Cr promotes the effect of suppressing the diffusion of N at room temperature, and further the grain boundary. It is presumed that the carbonitride precipitation in the steel is suppressed.
Since such an effect becomes clear when the amount of O is 0.0010% or more, this is the lower limit. On the other hand, when O exceeds 0.02%, not only does such an effect tend to be saturated, but also the r value deteriorates, so 0.02% is made the upper limit. From the viewpoint of suppressing the diffusion of N and the precipitation of grain boundary carbonitrides, the addition of 0.0050% or more is a more preferable range of O.
[0028]
O usually exists as an oxide of Fe, but may exist as an oxide such as Al, Zr, Mg, Si, Mn, Ti, Nb, La, Ce, or a composite oxide thereof. Further, the form, size, and distribution of the oxide are not particularly limited, but a spherical shape is preferable from the viewpoint of increasing the surface area, and the volume fraction in the steel is 1 × 10.-FiveAs described above, the average oxide diameter is preferably 0.8 μm or less. These requirements are all based on the viewpoint of increasing the number of sites effective for the segregation of Cr and N as much as possible.
[0029]
  Solid solution C: Cr orIs OEven if an appropriate amount is added, if the amount of dissolved C exceeds 0.0040%, it becomes difficult to achieve both BH and room temperature slow aging or elongation deterioration resistance. Therefore, the appropriate range is limited to 0.0040% or less, preferably 0.0030% or less.
[0030]
Solid solution N amount: By actively using solid solution N, a large strain age hardening can be obtained even under low temperature paint baking conditions. If the amount of dissolved N is less than 0.0015%, BH150 = 40 MPa or more cannot be achieved, and if it exceeds 0.0085%, both BH and room temperature slow aging or elongation resistance can be achieved. It becomes difficult. Therefore, the appropriate range is limited to 0.0015 to 0.0085%. A more preferable upper limit is 0.0065% or less.
[0031]
Solid solution C amount + 12/14 × (solid solution N amount): When the solid solution C amount + 12/14 × (solid solution N amount) is less than 0.0020%, BH150 = 40 MPa or more cannot be achieved. If it exceeds 0.012%, it becomes difficult to achieve both BH and room temperature slow aging or room temperature ductility deterioration. Therefore, the appropriate range is limited to 0.0020-0.012%. A more preferable upper limit is 0.0080% or less.
[0032]
In the present invention, in addition to the above-described composition, the object of the present invention can be achieved even if one or more of the groups a to e are contained.
Group a: The total of one or two of Mo and W is 0.1 to 1.0%.
Mo and W are carbonitride-forming elements. By containing 0.1% or more of these elements in total, they are precipitated mainly as carbonitride during hot rolling, cooling, or the primary heat treatment step. Therefore, it is used to adjust the strength of the steel material. However, if the total exceeds 1.0%, the amount of carbonitride deposited increases, and it becomes difficult to obtain BH150 = 40 MPa or more, and the molding processability deteriorates. Therefore, the range of the total amount is set to 0.1 to 1.0%.
[0033]
Group b: 0.001 to 0.2% of the total of one or more of Nb, Ti, V, and Ta.
Nb, Ti, V, and Ta are carbonitride-forming elements, and are used to adjust the microstructure, C content, and N content of steel materials, so contain one or more total of 0.001% or more. It is preferable to do. However, if the total exceeds 0.2%, the amount of carbonitride deposited increases, and it becomes difficult to obtain BH150 = 40 MPa or more, and if it is 0.001% or less, the addition effect does not appear. Therefore, the range of the total amount is set to 0.001 to 0.2%.
[0034]
c group: Sum of 1 type or 2 types in Cu and Ni: 0.1 to 4.0% or less.
Since Cu and Ni are used for controlling the microstructure and strength, it is preferable to contain 0.1% or more. However, if the added amount exceeds 4.0%, hot working cracks occur, and the cost becomes high. Therefore, the appropriate addition range is limited to 4.0% or less, preferably 3.0% or less.
[0035]
d group: B is 0.0003 to 0.010%.
When B is contained in an amount of 0.0003% or more, it segregates at the grain boundary, has the effect of suppressing secondary processing cracks due to P, and has the effect of improving the moldability. However, if it exceeds 0.010%, coarse precipitates are formed at the grain boundaries and work cracks occur. Therefore, the range was limited to 0.0003 to 0.010%.
[0036]
e group: 0.001 to 0.01% in total of one or more of Ca, Mg, Zr, and REM.
Ca, Mg, Zr and REM are elements used for controlling the form and distribution of inclusions, and preferably contain one or two or more in total of 0.001% or more. However, if the total content exceeds 0.01%, it causes deterioration of molding processability. Therefore, the total amount range is set to 0.001 to 0.01%. In the present invention, REM refers to La and lanthanoid series elements.
[0037]
The steel sheet according to the present invention preferably has a ferrite area ratio of 80% or more, preferably 95% or more, in order to sufficiently exhibit the effects of Cr and O. In the present invention, when the fraction of polygonal ferrite is 100%, the best balance of BH, room temperature slow aging and room temperature ductility deterioration can be obtained.
[0038]
In the present invention, “ferrite” refers to granular bainitic ferrite containing polygonal ferrite, pseudopolygonal ferrite, or M / A composite as shown in ISIJ International Volume 35 (1995) pages 941-944. . The remaining structure other than ferrite may contain one or more of martensite, austenite, lath bainite, and pearlite. The average crystal grain size of ferrite is preferably 8 μm or more from the viewpoint of effectively preventing elongation deterioration at room temperature.
[0039]
Next, the reasons for limiting the amount of change in yield elongation and the amount of change in total elongation due to BH amount, normal temperature aging will be described.
The steel sheet obtained by the present invention has a BH150 of 40 MPa or more and a BH150 / BH170 of 0.9 or more. In the present invention, even when BH150 is 60 MPa or more, it is possible to achieve both room temperature slow aging and room temperature elongation resistance. The upper limit of BH is not particularly limited, but when BH150 exceeds 100 MPa, it becomes difficult to ensure normal temperature aging resistance.
BH150 and BH170 were subjected to a heat treatment at 150 ° C. and 170 ° C. for 20 minutes after 5% tensile pre-deformation, and then the lower yield stress during re-tension and the maximum during pre-deformation. BH evaluated by the difference in stress.
[0040]
It is simple and preferable to evaluate the room temperature slow aging by the yield point elongation after artificial aging. In the steel sheet obtained by the present invention, the increase in yield point elongation by a tensile test after heat treatment at 100 ° C. for 1 hour is 0.6% or less, more preferably 0.3% or less.
Further, the steel sheet obtained by the present invention has a decrease in total elongation by a tensile test after heat treatment at 100 ° C. for 1 hour of 3.0% or less, preferably 2.0% or less.
In the present invention, a heat treatment of 150 ° C. × 20 minutes is selected as the low temperature coating baking condition, but the baking coating temperature T (° C.) after the molding process in which the present invention is effective is 120 ° C. or more, Moreover, if the baking time t (minutes) is T · ln (t)> 250 or more, the object of the present invention can be achieved.
[0041]
Next, the reason for limiting the manufacturing method will be described.
The slab used for hot rolling is not particularly limited. That is, what was manufactured with the continuous casting slab, the thin slab caster, etc. should just be used. It is also compatible with processes such as continuous casting-direct rolling (CC-DR) in which hot rolling is performed immediately after casting.
[0042]
When a hot-rolled steel sheet is used as a final product, it is necessary to limit production conditions as follows. That is, the finishing temperature of hot rolling is (Ar3-150) ° C. or higher. If it is less than (Ar3 -150) ° C., it is difficult to ensure workability or a problem of plate thickness accuracy occurs. The Ar3 point or higher is a more preferable range. The upper limit of the finishing temperature is not particularly defined, and the effects of the present invention can be obtained. However, in order to secure the r value, it is preferably set to 1000 ° C. or lower.
The heating temperature for hot rolling is not particularly limited. However, when it is necessary to dissolve the nitride in order to secure the solid solution N, the heating temperature is preferably 1150 ° C. or higher.
[0043]
After hot rolling, it is necessary to cool so that the average cooling rate is 2.5 × (Cr content) + 2.5 ° C./s or more between 680 ° C. and at least 550 ° C., depending on the Cr content. is there. Here, the Cr content is an amount expressed by mass%. This temperature range corresponds to a temperature range in which precipitation of Cr carbonitride occurs rapidly, thereby suppressing the precipitation of Cr carbonitride and adjusting the amount of solid solution C or solid solution N that contributes to BH. From the viewpoint of high BH, the cooling rate is more preferably 5 × (Cr content) + 2.5 ° C./s or more.
The upper limit of the average cooling rate is not particularly defined, but if it is too high, the structure tends to be non-uniform, so it is preferable to set it to 1000 ° C./s or less. The cooling rate in the temperature range below 550 ° C. is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1 ° C./s or more.
[0044]
In the case of winding, if the winding temperature exceeds 550 ° C., carbonitride precipitates and it becomes difficult to achieve BH150 = 40 MPa. Therefore, the range was limited to 550 ° C. or less. The lower limit of the coiling temperature is not particularly limited and may be room temperature, but is preferably 100 to 300 ° C. in terms of thermal efficiency in order to secure the residence time in the temperature range described below.
When winding is not performed, it may be cooled to any temperature from 550 ° C. to room temperature.
[0045]
After cooling or winding, the sample is retained at 100 to 300 ° C. for 20 seconds or longer. Although the detailed mechanism is not clear, it is considered that pairing of Cr atoms and solute N or Cr atoms and solute C atoms occurs during this process, and further, segregation of N or C around the oxide occurs. This is an indispensable process for obtaining yield point elongation suppression and total elongation deterioration suppression during normal temperature holding. The temperature range between 100 and 300 ° C. is the temperature range for causing the above atom movement most rapidly in the crystal grains. When the residence time within this temperature range is less than 20 s, the BH property, the room temperature slow aging property, and the room temperature ductility deterioration The balance cannot be achieved. Therefore, the residence time range was limited to 20 s or more.
In addition, from the viewpoint of obtaining superior room temperature slow aging properties and room temperature ductility deterioration characteristics, holding for 60 seconds or more is more preferable. The upper limit of the residence time is not particularly defined, but if it exceeds 60000 s, precipitation of coarse carbonitrides at the grain boundary occurs, high BH may not be obtained, and the elongation value is significantly reduced. Is preferably 60000 s or less.
After hot rolling, pickling may be performed as necessary, and then temper rolling with a reduction rate of 3% or less or cold rolling with a reduction rate of about 40% may be performed inline or offline.
[0046]
Next, manufacturing conditions when a cold-rolled plate or a plated plate is used as the final product will be described. The manufacturing conditions for the hot-rolled sheet as a material need not be specified, and may be performed according to a conventional method. Subsequently, a generally known treatment such as pickling is performed and cold rolling is performed.
With regard to the cold rolling conditions, the number of rolling passes and the rolling reduction need not be specifically defined, and may be in accordance with ordinary methods. However, if the rolling reduction of cold rolling exceeds 90%, the load on the equipment becomes excessive, and the anisotropy of the mechanical properties of the product increases, so 90% or less is preferable.
[0047]
What is necessary is just to follow a conventional method about the heating rate in a continuous annealing process or a continuous annealing and a plating process. As for the maximum temperature achieved during the primary heat treatment, if it is less than (Ac3 -150) ° C., recrystallization is not completed, and the workability is poor. On the other hand, when the primary heat treatment temperature exceeds (Ac3 +120) ° C., the structure with a high dislocation density or the second phase fraction increases, making it difficult to achieve both BH properties, room temperature slow aging properties, and room temperature ductility deterioration characteristics. Become. Therefore, the range of the maximum temperature reached in the primary heat treatment was limited to (Ac3 -150) to (Ac3 +120) ° C.
[0048]
After completion of the primary heat treatment, the average cooling rate is 2.5 × (Cr content) + 2.5 ° C./s or more from 680 ° C. to 550 ° C., depending on the Cr content, from 680 ° C. to at least 550 ° C. Cool so that This temperature range corresponds to a temperature range in which precipitation of Cr carbonitride occurs rapidly, whereby the precipitation of carbonitride is suppressed and the amount of solid solution C or solid solution N contributing to BH is adjusted.
From the viewpoint of increasing BH, the average cooling rate is more preferably 5 × (Cr content) + 2.5 ° C./s or more. The upper limit of the average cooling rate is not particularly defined, but if it is too high, the structure tends to be non-uniform, so it is preferable to set it to 1000 ° C./s or less.
[0049]
When hot dip galvanizing is applied, the average cooling rate from at least 680 ° C. to 550 ° C. after the primary heat treatment is 2.5 × (Cr content) + 2.5 ° C./s or more, preferably 5 × (Cr content ) After cooling to + 2.5 ° C./s or more, more preferably 10 ° C./s or more, galvanization is performed, and then the plating phase is alloyed as necessary. Although the conditions for galvanizing and alloying are not particularly defined, the immersion time in the plating bath and the holding time in the alloying furnace are 40 s or less, respectively, from the viewpoint of suppressing the precipitation of added N or C at the grain boundaries. Preferably it is 20 s or less.
When hot dip galvanization is not performed, after the primary heat treatment and after cooling to 550 ° C., the overaging treatment may be performed to any temperature from 550 ° C. to room temperature.
[0050]
Cooling is performed in which the residence time between 100 and 300 ° C. is 20 s or longer after the primary heat treatment, after the heat treatment using the overaging zone, or after the plating treatment (including after the alloying treatment). In addition, when performing an overaging process, in order to ensure residence time in the above-mentioned temperature range, it is preferable on heat efficiency to set it as 100-300 degreeC. In addition, the cooling process whose residence time between 100-300 degreeC is 20 s or more is an indispensable process in order to obtain the yield-point elongation expression suppression and total elongation deterioration suppression during normal temperature holding | maintenance as mentioned above. The temperature range from 100 to 300 ° C. is the temperature range for causing the above atom movement most rapidly in the crystal grains. When the residence time within this temperature range is less than 20 s, BH property, room temperature slow aging property and room temperature ductility resistance The balance of deterioration cannot be achieved. Therefore, the residence time range was limited to 20 s or more.
In addition, from the viewpoint of obtaining superior room temperature slow aging properties and room temperature elongation deterioration resistance, holding for 60 seconds or more is more preferable. The upper limit of the residence time is not particularly defined, but if it exceeds 60000 s, precipitation of coarse carbonitrides at the grain boundary occurs, high BH may not be obtained, and the elongation value is significantly reduced. Is preferably 60000 s or less.
[0051]
The temper rolling is performed for improving the slow aging property at room temperature and forcing the shape, and is preferably performed within a range of 3% or less in rolling reduction. If it exceeds 3%, the amount of deterioration of the total elongation during normal temperature tends to increase, so this is the upper limit.
[0052]
The cold-rolled steel sheet of the present invention produced without undergoing a plating step or a plating alloying step after the primary heat treatment is suitable as various plating raw materials. The plating layer may be formed by either an electroplating method or a hot dipping method. Examples of the main component of plating include zinc, chromium, tin, and nickel.
[0053]
The amount of solute N is determined by analyzing the filtrate according to the N determination method described in JIS A5523. In addition, the amount of solid solution C is obtained by first obtaining the total amount of C, and then electrolyzing the sample with an appropriate electrolytic solution, for example, a tetramethylammonium chloride + acetylacetone mixed solution, and then thoroughly washing the extracted residue into a high-frequency combustion infrared ray in an oxygen stream. This is determined by the absorption method, and this is taken as the amount of precipitated C. Finally, the amount of precipitated C is subtracted from the total amount of C. Ag is preferably used as a filter for filtering insoluble residue.
[0054]
In addition, the amount of solute C and the amount of solute N can also be measured by an atom probe field ion microscope. In this case, when the data is displayed as a three-dimensional atomic map, 1 nmThreeA region containing a total of five or more carbon atoms and nitrogen atoms in the volume of the carbon is judged as an aggregate, and the average C or N concentration in the matrix of the region excluding this is determined as the amount of solute C or the amount of solute N. The method to do is simple. The amount of solid solution C or the amount of solid solution N can be quantified by the internal friction method. However, the height of the snake peak changes depending on the amount of the added alloy element. This is not preferable as a method for measuring the amount of dissolved N.
[0055]
【Example】
Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.
Steels having the components shown in Table 1 were melted, and the hot rolling process was performed under the conditions shown in Table 2. The slab heating temperature during hot rolling was 1050 to 1250 ° C., and the final plate thickness was 4 mm. All temper rolling was performed at an elongation of 1.5%. The steel plate thus obtained was subjected to a tensile test, a BH test, and a structure observation.
[0056]
Moreover, about the steel of the component shown in Table 1, a slab is reheated to 1050-1250 degreeC, it hot-rolls to the final plate | board thickness of 4 mm with the hot rolling completion temperature of 840-930 degreeC, and it winds at 450-550 degreeC, After pickling the hot-rolled steel sheet thus obtained, cold working at a cold rolling rate of 70 to 85% and degreasing treatment, followed by continuous heat treatment and continuous galvanizing process under the conditions shown in Table 3 Went. All the temper rolling ratios were 1.5%.
The steel plate thus obtained was subjected to a tensile test, a BH test, and a structure observation. Conditions for each test and observation are shown below.
[0057]
A tensile test for observing the change in yield elongation or total elongation uses a JIS No. 5 test piece and has a strain rate of 10-3/ S. Material change during normal temperature holding was evaluated by comparing the tensile test results before and after accelerated aging at 100 ° C. × 1 hr. On the other hand, the tensile test for observing the amount of BH uses a JIS13B test piece and has a strain rate of 10-3/ S.
The pre-deformation amount of the BH test is 5%, the aging conditions corresponding to the coating baking process are 170 ° C. × 20 minutes or 150 ° C. × 20 minutes, and the BH amounts evaluated at the lower yield point during re-tensioning are BH 170 and BH 150, respectively. It was. The average crystal grain size of ferrite was measured according to the test method of JISG0552. The test results are shown in Table 4.
