2. Description of the Related Art Weather-resistant steel in which alloy elements such as P, Cu, Cr and Ni are added to steel to improve corrosion resistance in the atmosphere is used for steel structures such as ships and tanks and steel buildings such as bridges. Widely used for Weather-resistant steel forms a rust called stable rust, which is hard to penetrate oxygen and water, which cause corrosion outdoors, in a few years, and suppresses subsequent corrosion. For this reason, the weather-resistant steel does not need to be coated with a rust-preventive paint, and is a so-called inexpensive and highly corrosion-resistant material that can be used naked. The stable rust of the weather-resistant steel is dark brown compared to the rust of ordinary steel, and the use of weather-resistant steel has recently been increasing to harmonize with the landscape.

However, in the case of weathering steel, it takes several years for stable rust to be formed.
The generation of flow rust called rust soup has caused environmental problems due to causing landscape or environmental pollution. Furthermore, the weather-resistant steel has a problem that stable rust is hardly formed due to the action of sea salt particles flying in the coastal zone, and the suppression of corrosion is not recognized.

In the technique described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-142088, weather-resistant and stable rust is formed in a shorter period of time than before, but since the initial film is black, it is difficult to expose to sunshine and shade. The rust progressed differently due to the difference, causing color unevenness and leaving a problem in appearance. Further, in the techniques described in JP-A-6-136557 and JP-A-8-13158, weathering rust is grown in a short period of time, but the process is complicated and the surface treatment material used is expensive. And so on. Further, in the technique described in Japanese Patent No. 2572447, there is a problem in adjusting the composite oxide such that a great deal of work is required to uniformly disperse the composite oxide in the steel.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors first analyzed stability rust. The present inventors observed under a polarizing microscope the cross section of rust generated on the surface of the steel sheet exposed for more than 25 years in the countryside and the coastal zone, and the rust generated in the countryside had many quenched parts. On the other hand, it was found that rust generated in the coastal zone could hardly find polarized and quenched parts. In addition, the corrosion rate of the steel sheet exposed in the countryside was almost zero, but the corrosion rate of the steel sheet exposed in the coastal area was not so large as in the early exposure, but was about 1 /
Corrosion was progressing at a corrosion rate of about 3. Based on these facts, the present inventors believe that the essence of stable rust is rust observed as a quenched part under a polarizing microscope, and this part suppresses the penetration of oxygen, which is a corrosion factor, and water, into the surface of the iron base. I suspected that.

Further, the present inventors conducted an experiment of exposing a steel plate which had been exposed in a rural area for 15 years and had rust formed in many parts quenched under a polarizing microscope to a coastal area for more than 3 years. No generation of flow rust and no increase in corrosion rate were observed. This suggests that the once formed stable rust is stable even in the presence of sea salt particles, and the present inventors have found that the stable rust on the steel surface before being used in the atmosphere. I thought that if it was formed, it would be possible to prevent the occurrence of flow rust and uneven color, and it would be a steel material that could withstand use in coastal areas.

Therefore, the present inventors have intensively studied a method for forming a stable rust in a short period of time in the process of producing a steel material.
We have newly found that rust quenched under a polarizing microscope can be generated by repeatedly raising and lowering the temperature between a temperature range 5 ° C or more lower than the dew point determined by relative humidity and a temperature range 5 ° C or more higher than the dew point. Was. Furthermore, the present inventors further analyzed X-ray diffraction for weatherable stable rust including quenched rust under a polarizing microscope. as a result,
It has been found that these rusts are rusts containing amorphous rust in an amount of 50% by weight or more.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS First, a method for producing a weather-resistant steel material according to the present invention and a method for forming a weather-resistant stable rust on a steel material surface will be described. In the present invention, the steel material is kept in an atmosphere where the dew point is kept constant. The value of the dew point that is kept constant is
There is no particular limitation as long as the condensation can be made on the steel material. The adjustment of the dew point is preferably performed by spraying water into the atmospheric gas. In order to obtain a predetermined stable rust, it is preferable to use pure water as the water to be sprayed.

It is preferable that the atmosphere for holding the steel material keeps the dew point constant and further keeps the oxygen gas partial pressure at 15 to 50% by volume. If the oxygen gas partial pressure is less than 15% by volume,
The rate of progress of the corrosion is slow, and it takes a long time to form a stable rust, and the production efficiency decreases. If the oxygen gas partial pressure exceeds 50% by volume, corrosion does not proceed. For this reason, the oxygen gas partial pressure in the atmosphere is preferably set to 15 to 50% by volume.
It is preferable that oxygen gas be mixed with nitrogen gas to adjust the partial pressure of oxygen gas. The oxygen gas to be mixed should be as pure as possible to obtain a predetermined stable rust.

The steel material is held in the above-described atmosphere, and the temperature of the steel material is repeatedly changed between a temperature range of (dew point temperature + 5 ° C.) or higher and a temperature range of (dew point temperature −5 ° C.) or lower. (Dew point temperature +5
C.) and a temperature range below (dew point temperature −5 ° C.), the steel surface repeats dew condensation and drying, the corrosion progresses rapidly, and stable rust can be formed in a short time. Holding at each of the above temperature ranges is not particularly necessary,

When the temperature of the steel material is less than (dew point temperature + 5 ° C.) or more than (dew point temperature −5 ° C.), dew condensation on the steel material surface,
Since the drying is unstable, the corrosion does not proceed, and it is difficult to form a stable rust layer. Further, the temperature rise and fall of the steel material temperature between the temperature range of (dew point temperature + 5 ° C) or more and the temperature range of (dew point temperature −5 ° C) or less are performed at a rate of 0.1 to 2 ° C./min. Is preferably 0.01 to 2 ° C./min. If the rate of temperature rise is less than 0.1 ° C./min, it takes too much time to raise the temperature, which is not efficient. On the other hand, if it exceeds 2 ° C./min, it becomes difficult to form a quenching layer on the steel surface. In addition, the temperature drop rate is 0.01 ° C / mi
If it is less than n, it takes too much time to lower the temperature, which is not efficient. On the other hand, if it exceeds 2 ° C./min, it is difficult for dew condensation to occur and a quenching layer is hardly formed on the surface of the steel material.

The term "amorphous rust" as used in the present invention refers to the rust layer formed by measuring the content of crystalline rust using X-ray diffraction, and removing the rust layer from the total amount of the rust layer. Say rust. Amorphous rust has higher corrosion protection than crystalline rust, in which a crystal grain cannot be defined and there is no grain boundary, as compared with a crystalline rust in which corrosion factors may enter from the grain boundary. Also,
Amorphous rust has excellent adhesion to the surface of a steel sheet, and forms a stronger rust layer by repeated drying and wetting due to exposure. In addition, amorphous rust contains a large amount of bound water, which is considered to fill the micro voids in the rust layer, thereby making the rust layer denser, preventing corrosion factors from entering, and improving weather resistance. Can be Furthermore, by exposure, it takes in components such as Cr and Cu eluted from the base iron, and becomes rust stable in terms of weather resistance.

When the rust layer contains at least 50% by weight of amorphous rust, generation of flowing rust is suppressed. on the other hand,
If the amorphous rust is less than 50% by weight of the rust layer, the corrosion of the ground iron proceeds until the rust layer becomes coarse and becomes weather-resistant and stable rust, and further flow rust is generated. When the rust layer contains at least 50% by weight of amorphous rust, generation of flow rust is suppressed, but it does not completely prevent corrosion of the ground iron. A small amount of iron elutes and the rust layer slowly increases, eventually becoming stable rust.
