Description

This invention is a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet useful for press parts such as automobiles and electrical equipment, in particular, a tensile strength of 440 MPa or more excellent in deep drawability and shape freezing property after press forming (hereinafter simply referred to as shape). the method for producing a high-strength cold-rolled steel plate having a strength TS.

In recent years, in the automobile industry, both the weight reduction of the vehicle body according to the CO ₂ emission regulations and the reinforcement of the vehicle body for improving safety in the event of a collision have been actively promoted. In order to satisfy the weight reduction and strengthening of automobile bodies at the same time, it is said that it is effective to increase the strength of component materials and reduce the plate thickness within a range where rigidity is not a problem. Are actively used in automotive parts. In particular, since the weight reduction effect increases as a higher strength steel plate is used, steel plates having a TS of 440 MPa or more are used for the framework / structural parts and inner / outer panel parts.

  Since many automobile parts made of steel plates are manufactured by press forming, the steel plates need excellent press formability. When a high-strength steel plate is applied, a particularly excellent shape (dimensional accuracy) is required. Therefore, conventionally, techniques for improving the formability and shape of high-strength cold-rolled steel sheets have been studied. In general, the formability is improved by lowering the yield ratio YS / TS (YS is the yield strength) of the steel sheet. For this purpose, a composite structure (Dual-Phase, DP) steel sheet mainly containing a ferrite phase and a martensite phase is effective. It is said that. However, DP steel sheets are generally good in ductility and have an excellent balance between strength and ductility (TS × El), but are inferior in stretch flangeability (local ductility) and deep drawability.

  As a method for producing a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet excellent in both deep drawability and formability, for example, in Patent Document 1, C: 0.20% or less, Si: 1.0% or less, Mn: 0.8 to 2.5%, Al: 0.01 to 0.20 %, N: 0.0015-0.0150%, P: Hot rolled steel containing 0.10% or less, cold rolled, and then manufactured DP steel sheet manufactured by performing two heat treatments: box annealing and continuous annealing A method is disclosed. Patent Document 2 contains C: 0.003 to 0.03%, Si: 0.2 to 1%, Mn: 0.3 to 1.5%, Ti: 0.02 to 0.2%, and an atomic concentration ratio (effective Ti) / (C + A method for producing a DP steel sheet having excellent deep drawability and formability is disclosed by hot rolling steel with N) controlled to 0.4 to 0.8, cold rolling, heating to a predetermined temperature by continuous annealing, and then rapidly cooling. ing. Here, effective Ti is defined as a concentration obtained by subtracting the Ti concentration consumed as oxides and sulfides from the total Ti concentration.

Further, in Patent Document 3, C: 0.010 to 0.050%, Si: 1.0% or less, Mn: 1.0 to 3.0%, P: 0.005 to 0.1%, S: 0.01% or less, Al: 0.005 to 0.5%, N: 0.01% or less and Nb: 0.01 to 0.3%, and the content of Nb and C in the steel satisfies (Nb / 93) / (C / 12) = 0.2 to 0.7, and the ferrite phase and the martensite phase A DP steel sheet having a controlled amount and excellent deep drawability is disclosed.

  However, in the method described in Patent Document 1, not only productivity and economy are inferior because a long-time box annealing process is required at a relatively high temperature, but there are problems such as adhesion between steel plates and occurrence of temper color. . Further, in the method described in Patent Document 2, a special method for immersing a steel sheet in jet water to cool the steel sheet at an average cooling rate of about 100 ° C./s or carburizing the steel sheet in an annealing process. In addition to the need for such equipment, the problem of surface treatment becomes obvious because the steel sheet is immersed in the jet water. Furthermore, the DP steel sheet described in Patent Document 3 does not necessarily provide excellent shape.

The present invention aims to provide a special process or equipment can be manufactured without the need for the method of producing a high strength cold rolled steel sheet having deep drawability and 440MPa or more TS excellent in shapeability both To do.

  When the inventors proceeded to study a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet having a TS of 440 MPa or more that is excellent in both deep drawability and shapeability that can be manufactured by a normal process, the following knowledge was obtained.

i) As described above, it has been conventionally said that the reduction of the yield ratio is effective for improving the formability after press forming, but the reduction of the yield ratio is not always effective in the DP steel sheet. It is effective to set δ defined by the equations (2) and (3) to 0.3 or less.
δ = (σc / ρ) / TS (2)
σc = {E / (1-ν ² )} × t × (1 / D ₀ -1 / D ₁ ) (3)
Where E is steel Young's modulus (MPa), ν is steel Poisson's ratio, t is steel sheet thickness (mm), TS is steel sheet tensile strength (MPa), D ₀ is drawing ratio ρ the outer diameter of the cup after the steel sheet cup shaped (mm), D ₁ is perpendicular to the rolling direction when the side face of the cup cut ring sample, is opened the ring samples scored in the rolling direction of the steel sheet Represents the outer diameter (mm) of the ring in the direction. Here, σc is a numerical value indicating a conventionally known standard of residual stress. Since the residual stress is affected by the amount of processing and material strength, the inventors normalized this σc with the amount of processing and material strength. In addition, δ was used as a standard for the contribution to the residual stress of the steel sheet as the processed material.

  ii) To make δ 0.3 or less, the amount of C is 0.015 to 0.050% by mass, which is smaller than that of conventional DP steel plates, and steel with Nb added less than the C equivalent is used, up to a temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. It is effective to appropriately control the heating rate of the steel sheet to make a DP steel sheet in which a small amount of martensite phase is finely dispersed in the ferrite phase.

The present invention was made based on such findings, and in mass%, C: 0.015 to 0.050%, Si: 1.0% or less, Mn: 1.0 to 3.0%, P: 0.005 to 0.1%, S: 0.01% hereinafter, Al: 0.005~0.5%, N: 0.01% or less, Nb: 0.01 to 0.3%, and balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, the steel in which the content of Nb and C satisfy the following Symbol formula (1) Hot rolling the slab to produce a hot rolled steel sheet, winding the hot rolled steel sheet at a winding temperature of 400 to 720 ° C., and cold rolling the hot rolled steel sheet after winding.

[C]-(12 × [Nb] / 93) ≧ 0.01 (1)
δ = (σc / ρ) / TS (2)
σc = {E / (1-ν ² )} × t × (1 / D ₀ -1 / D ₁ ) (3)
Here, [M] is the content of element M (% by mass) , E is the Young's modulus (MPa) of the steel, ν is the Poisson's ratio of the steel, t is the plate thickness (mm) of the steel plate, TS is the steel plate Represents tensile strength (MPa), D ₀ is the outer diameter of the cup after cup molding the steel sheet with a draw ratio ρ (mm), D ₁ cut out a ring sample from the side of the cup, rolling the steel sheet It represents the outer diameter (mm) of the ring perpendicular to the rolling direction when the ring sample is opened with a cut in the direction .

The steel slab can further contain at least 0.5% in total of at least one element selected from Mo, Cr, Cu, and Ni by mass%. Also, further, in mass%, although the Ti can be contained 0.1% or less, in which case, under Symbol formula (4), and it is necessary to satisfy the equation (5) or (6) .

Here, Ti ^* = [Ti] −48 × ([N] / 14 + [S] / 32), and [M] represents the content (mass%) of the element M.

  After the step of cooling the cold-rolled steel plate after the recrystallization annealing, a step of forming a plating layer on the surface of the cold-rolled steel plate can be further provided.

  Further, instead of the step of cooling the cold-rolled steel sheet after the recrystallization annealing, the cold rolled steel sheet after the recrystallization annealing is performed at a temperature range from 800 ° C. to immediately before immersion in the plating bath at an average cooling rate of 5 ° C./s or more. After cooling and alloying, a temperature range from the alloying temperature to 400 ° C. may be cooled at an average cooling rate of 5 ° C./s or more.

  According to the present invention, a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet having a TS of 440 MPa or more excellent in both deep drawability and formability can be produced without requiring a special process or equipment.

  As described above, the point of the present invention is that the amount of C is 0.015 to 0.050 mass%, which is smaller than that of a conventional DP steel sheet, and a steel to which Nb less than C equivalent is added is used, up to a temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. By appropriately controlling the heating rate of the steel and finely dispersing a small amount of martensite phase in the ferrite phase to reduce δ to 0.3 or less, deep drawability and formability are improved while securing TS of 440 MPa or more. There is. The details will be described below. The unit of element content is “mass%”, but is simply referred to as “%” below.

1) ingredients
C: C is effective for increasing the strength and is an important element in the present invention together with Nb described later. From the viewpoint of forming a composite structure containing a small amount of fine martensite phase in the ferrite phase, the amount needs to be 0.015% or more, preferably 0.020% or more. However, when the amount exceeds 0.050%, the growth of ferrite grains tends to be suppressed and formability such as deep drawability tends to be deteriorated. Therefore, the amount of C is limited to 0.015 to 0.050%, preferably 0.020 to 0.050%.

  Si: In addition to the effect of solid solution strengthening, Si has the effect of accelerating ferrite transformation and increasing the C content in untransformed austenite to easily form a composite structure of ferrite phase and martensite phase. However, if the amount exceeds 1.0%, a surface defect called red scale occurs during hot rolling, which deteriorates the surface appearance of the steel sheet. Therefore, the Si content is limited to 1.0% or less. When hot dip galvanizing is performed, the wettability of the plating is deteriorated and plating unevenness is caused. Therefore, the Si content is preferably 0.7% or less. In order to obtain the above effect, the Si content is preferably 0.01% or more, and more preferably 0.05% or more.

  Mn: Mn is effective in increasing the strength and has the effect of slowing down the critical cooling rate at which a martensite phase is obtained, and promotes the formation of a martensite phase during cooling after annealing. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the amount according to the required strength level and the cooling rate after annealing. Mn is an element effective for preventing hot cracking due to S. From such a viewpoint, the amount needs to be 1.0% or more, preferably 1.2% or more. On the other hand, if the amount exceeds 3.0%, formability and weldability are deteriorated. Therefore, the amount of Mn is limited to 1.0 to 3.0%, preferably 1.2 to 3.0%.

  P: P is an element having an effect of solid solution strengthening. However, if the amount is less than 0.005%, not only the effect does not appear, but also the dephosphorization cost increases. Therefore, the amount is 0.005% or more, preferably 0.01% or more. On the other hand, if the amount exceeds 0.1%, P segregates at the grain boundaries and deteriorates secondary work embrittlement resistance and weldability. In addition, during alloying after hot dip galvanizing, P suppresses the diffusion of Fe at the interface between the plating layer and the steel sheet and degrades the alloying processability. Therefore, alloying at high temperatures is required, and powdering and Plating peeling such as chipping is likely to occur. Therefore, the P content is limited to 0.005 to 0.1%, preferably 0.01 to 0.1%.

  S: In addition to causing hot cracking, S exists as an inclusion in steel and deteriorates properties such as hole expandability. Therefore, the amount of S is limited to 0.01% or less, but the smaller the amount, the better.

  Al: In addition to being useful as a deoxidizing element for steel, Al has the effect of improving the normal temperature aging resistance by precipitating solute N in the steel as AlN. Furthermore, Al is a ferrite-forming element and is useful for adjusting the (α + γ) two-phase temperature range. In order to exert such an effect, the amount needs to be 0.005% or more. On the other hand, if the amount exceeds 0.5%, cost increases and surface defects are induced. Therefore, the Al content is limited to 0.005 to 0.5%, preferably 0.005 to 0.1%.

  N: As described above, when N is present as solute N, the room temperature aging resistance is deteriorated. When the amount increases, a large amount of Al or Ti is required to precipitate solid solution N. Therefore, the N content is limited to 0.01% or less, but the smaller the amount, the better.

  Nb: Nb is one of the important elements in the present invention, and contributes to the improvement of deep drawability by refining the microstructure after hot rolling or by precipitating solute C in steel as NbC. From such a viewpoint, the amount needs to be 0.01% or more. On the other hand, in order to form a martensite phase in the cooling process after annealing, it is necessary to ensure solid solution C that is not precipitated by Nb, but Nb content should be 0.3% or less, and Nb content should be reduced to C content. Accordingly, it is necessary to control to satisfy the above formula (1). Therefore, the Nb content is limited to 0.01 to 0.3%, and the above formula (1): [C] − (12 × [Nb] / 93) ≧ 0.01 is satisfied.

  The balance is Fe and inevitable impurities. Here, unavoidable impurities include 0.01% or less Sb, 0.1% or less Sn, 0.01% or less Zn, 0.1% or less Co, and the like.

  In order to achieve the object of the present invention, the above components are sufficient. However, in order to promote the formation of martensite phase or increase the strength, it was further selected from Mo, Cr, Cu and Ni. It is effective to contain at least one element in total of 0.5% or less. The reason for making the amount 0.5% or less is that when the amount exceeds 0.5%, the effect is saturated and the cost is increased. In order to obtain the effect, the amount is preferably 0.05% or more.

In addition, in order to precipitate solid solution N, C, S as TiN, TiC, TiS, Ti ₄ C ₂ S ₂ etc. and improve aging resistance and press formability, 0.1% or less of Ti is further contained. In addition, it is effective to satisfy the above formula (4) and formula (5) or formula (6). The reason why the Ti content is 0.1% or less, the left side of Formula (4) is 2.0 or less, and the left side of Formula (5) and Formula (6) is 0.01 or more is to ensure solid solution C necessary for the formation of the martensite phase. It is to do. That is, Ti binds preferentially to N and S and then to C, but the Ti content exceeds 0.1% or ([Ti] / 48) / ([S] / 32 + [N] When / 14) exceeds 2.0, it becomes difficult to leave solute C in the steel due to excess Ti. In addition, when Ti ^* , which is the amount of Ti effective for precipitating C, is Ti ^* > 0 and [C] -12 × ([Nb] / 93 + [Ti ^* ] / 48) <0.01, or When Ti ^* ≦ 0 and [C] −12 × [Nb] / 93 <0.01, it is difficult to secure solid solution C for forming the martensite phase as described above.

  In addition, B for improving the hardenability of steel is within a range of 0.003% or less, and at least one element of Ca and REM effective for shape control of sulfide inclusions is within a range of 0.01% or less. Even if it is made to contain, the effect of this invention is not impaired.

2) Microstructure In order to achieve excellent deep drawability and TS of 440 MPa or more, in addition to the above components, an area ratio of 50% or more, preferably 70 to 97% ferrite phase and an area ratio of 1 to 15 %, Preferably 3-15% of the martensitic phase. If the ferrite phase is less than 50%, it is difficult to ensure good deep drawability. Further, when the martensite phase is less than 1%, the structure strengthening ability is low, and when it exceeds 15%, the deep drawability deteriorates. Here, the area ratio of the ferrite phase and the martensite phase is determined by observing the plate thickness cross section parallel to the rolling direction of the steel sheet with an optical microscope or a scanning electron microscope, and calculating the area ratio of each phase in the observation field by image processing. It is what I have sought.

  Note that the sum of the area ratios of the ferrite phase and martensite phase does not necessarily need to be 100%. If it is less than 100%, there are phases other than the ferrite phase and martensite phase such as bainite, retained austenite, and pearlite. However, the smaller the phases other than the ferrite phase and martensite phase, the better. The ferrite phase here includes not only the polygonal ferrite phase but also the bainitic ferrite phase.

3) δ
As described above, according to the study by the present inventors, it is not always effective to reduce the yield ratio, which has been said so far, in order to obtain excellent shape after press molding. Perform cup molding close to molding, and define δ defined by the above formula (2) and formula (3) obtained from the change in outer diameter after removing the restraining force of the ring sample cut from the cup side surface (after making a cut) It has become clear that it is effective to make it smaller, and that if δ is 0.3 or less, the problem of dimensional accuracy in the actual press will be remarkably reduced.

Even if the area ratio and yield ratio of the martensite phase are almost the same, if δ exceeds 0.3, the dimensional accuracy of the actual press may deteriorate. It is inferred that In order to make δ smaller at 0.3 or less, it is preferable that the average area of the martensite phase is 6 μm ² or less, and 70% or more of the martensite phase having an aspect ratio of 2 or less is present among all martensite phases.

The surface of a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet having the above components and microstructure and having a δ of 0.3 or less is plated with pure zinc, zinc-based alloy, pure Al, Al-based alloy, etc. by electroplating or hot dipping. A layer can be provided.

4) Manufacturing method
A high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet having the above microstructure and δ of 0.3 or less is a step of hot-rolling a steel slab having the above-described components to produce a hot-rolled steel sheet, The process of winding at a coiling temperature of ℃, the process of cold-rolling the hot-rolled steel sheet after winding, and manufacturing the cold-rolled steel sheet, the average temperature of the cold-rolled steel sheet in the temperature range of 300-650 ℃ The temperature is raised at 18 to 70 ° C./s, and recrystallization annealing is performed at 800 to 950 ° C., or the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. is raised at an average heating rate of 3 ° C./s to less than 18 ° C./s, and then 650 to The temperature range of 800 ° C is increased at an average heating rate of 1 to 7 ° C / s, and the recrystallization annealing process at 800 to 950 ° C and the cold rolled steel sheet after the recrystallization annealing are performed at a temperature range of 800 to 400 ° C. It can be produced by a method for producing a high-strength cold-rolled steel sheet having a step of cooling at an average cooling rate of 5 ° C./s or more.

  The steel slab used in the production method of the present invention is desirably produced by a continuous casting method (including a thin slab casting method) in order to prevent macro segregation of components, but may be produced by an ingot-making method. Also, in order to hot-roll the slab, in addition to the conventional method in which the steel slab is once cooled to room temperature and then reheated and rolled, a method of hot rolling immediately after continuous casting, or a hot piece without cooling to room temperature. An energy saving process such as a method of charging and rolling in a heating furnace as it is can be applied without any problem.

  The slab heating temperature is 1000 ° C or higher so that the rolling load increases during hot rolling and the risk of troubles does not increase, and 1300 ° C or lower to prevent an increase in scale loss due to an increase in oxidized weight. Is preferable.

  The slab after heating is made into a sheet bar by rough rolling. The conditions for rough rolling are not particularly limited, and may be performed according to a conventional method. When the heating temperature of the slab is low, it is preferable to heat the sheet bar using a sheet bar heater from the viewpoint of preventing troubles during rolling.

  The sheet bar is a hot-rolled sheet by finish rolling. At this time, the finishing temperature FT is preferably 800 ° C. or higher so that the load during rolling does not increase. Further, in order to reduce the rolling load and to make the shape and characteristics of the steel sheet uniform, lubrication rolling can be performed between some or all passes of finish rolling. The coefficient of friction during lubrication rolling is preferably in the range of 0.10 to 0.25. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of operational stability of hot rolling, it is preferable to apply a continuous rolling process in which sheet bars are joined and continuously rolled.

  The coiling temperature CT after hot rolling is 400 to 720 ° C, preferably 550 to 680 ° C, in order to precipitate NbC. In addition, when CT exceeds 720 ° C., the crystal grains of the hot-rolled sheet become coarse, and as a result, the structure after cold-rolling annealing tends to become coarse, which may lead to a decrease in strength and deterioration of surface properties. Further, when CT is less than 400 ° C., NbC is hardly precipitated and it is difficult to ensure deep drawability.

  A hot-rolled steel sheet is made into a cold-rolled steel sheet by cold rolling after removing scales by pickling. The rolling reduction during rolling is preferably at least 40% or more, more preferably 50% or more, from the viewpoint of improving deep drawability.

  Cold rolled steel sheet is heated at an average heating rate of 18 to 70 ° C / s in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C and recrystallized at 800 to 950 ° C, or the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. After the temperature is increased at 3 ° C./s or more and less than 18 ° C./s, the temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C. is increased at an average heating rate of 1 to 7 ° C./s, and recrystallization annealing is performed at 800 to 950 ° C. The heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C and the heating rate in the temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C are one of the points of the present invention.

Figure 1 has components of C: 0.025%, Si: 0.5%, Mn: 2.0%, P: 0.035%, S: 0.005% or less, Al: 0.03%, N: 0.002%, Nb: 0 or 0.08% Continuous annealing using steel, changing the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300-650 ° C to 0.01-70 ° C / s, and changing the average heating rate in the temperature range of 650-800 ° C to 0.3 ° C / s and 3 ° C / s (Annealing temperature: 850 ° C.) A DP steel sheet (sheet thickness: 1.2 mm) was produced, and the results of determining δ are shown. Here, δ, which is an index of shape, is a punched steel plate with a blank diameter of 68 mm, a punch with a diameter of 33 mm, a die shoulder R of 2.5 mm, a wrinkle holding force of 10 kN, and a drawing speed of 10 mm / min. , Under the condition that the drawing ratio (blank diameter / punch diameter) is 2.06, the die side is lubricated with lubricating oil and Teflon (registered trademark) sheet to form a cup, and the ring sample is 10mm wide from the 8mm height from the bottom of the cup. Is cut by electric discharge machining, opened in the rolling direction of the steel sheet, measured the outer diameter of the ring perpendicular to the rolling direction, Young's modulus E: 210GPa (= 210 × 10 ³ MPa), Poisson's ratio ν : 0.3 and obtained from the above formulas (2) and (3). Moreover, the structure of the steel sheet was measured for the area ratio, the flatness ratio, and the average area of the martensite phase by using an SEM photograph in which the vicinity of the thickness of 1/4 part was observed at 2000 times. In addition, the average area of the martensite phase was calculated | required from the following formula | equation.
Average area of martensite phase = [area ratio of martensite phase in observation field (%)] × [area of observation field (μm ² )] / [number of martensite phases observed in observation field]
As shown in FIG. 1, by setting the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. to 18 to 70 ° C./s, preferably 20 to 70 ° C./s, δ can be reduced to 0.3 or less, and excellent shape characteristics are obtained. can get. By adjusting the amount of C and Nb as described above, the area ratio of the martensite phase is slightly lower than that of conventional DP steel, and the small amount of martensite phase can be obtained finely, thereby reducing the shape. It seems to be doing well. In particular, the tendency seems to be remarkable by increasing the heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. In addition, when the average heating rate at 650 to 800 ° C. is raised at 1 to 7 ° C./s, the shape is further improved. This is because the martensite phase has an aspect ratio of 2 or less and 70% or more. Therefore, it is presumed that the average area of the martensite phase was 6 μm ² or less, and the martensite was finely homogenized. In particular, it is speculated that the recrystallization delay due to Nb addition had some effect on the α-γ transformation in the subsequent two-phase annealing, but the details are unknown. If the average heating rate exceeds 70 ° C./s, the load on the equipment increases, so it is 70 ° C./s or less, preferably 50 ° C./s or less.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, even when the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C is less than 18 ° C / s, if the average heating rate is 3 ° C / s or more, the subsequent temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C is maintained. Good shape properties can be obtained by raising the temperature at an average heating rate of 1 to 7 ° C./s. This is because even if the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C is 3 ° C / s or more and less than 18 ° C / s, the average heating rate in the temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C is increased by 1 to 7 ° C / s. This is probably because a uniform and fine martensite phase is formed.

  When the average heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. is less than 3 ° C./s, δ exceeds 0.3 and the shape is deteriorated. This is the structure after cooling by slow heating annealing, and the ferrite content This is considered to be due to the fact that the ratio decreases and the martensite phase tends to become coarse. When heating the temperature range of 300-650 ° C at an average heating rate of 3 ° C / s or more and less than 18 ° C / s, if the average heating rate of the temperature range of 650-800 ° C is less than 1 ° C / s, If the average heating rate in the temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C. exceeds 7 ° C./s, the growth of recrystallized grains is hindered and the r value is reduced to less than 1.2, which is not preferable. For this reason, when the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. is increased at an average heating rate of 3 ° C./s or more and less than 18 ° C./s, the average heating rate of the temperature range of 650 to 800 ° C. is 1 to 7 ° C. / s.

  The annealing temperature is set to 800 ° C. or higher in order to set the annealing temperature to the recrystallization temperature or higher and to the (α + γ) two-phase region temperature or higher at which a structure including a ferrite phase and a martensite phase is obtained after cooling. However, when the temperature exceeds 950 ° C., the recrystallized grains are remarkably coarsened, and the mechanical properties and surface properties are remarkably deteriorated. Further, although not particularly limited, in order to sufficiently develop the recrystallized grains and improve the deep drawability and hole expansibility, the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C is set at an average heating rate of 18 to 70 ° C / s. When the temperature is raised, it is desirable that the temperature range from 700 ° C. to the annealing temperature is heated gradually, preferably at a heating rate of 5 ° C./s or less. Moreover, it is preferable to hold | maintain for 1 to 300 second at the annealing temperature of 800-950 degreeC. This is because when the holding time is set to 1 second or longer, recrystallization proceeds sufficiently and phase separation and concentration of solute C into the austenite phase is sufficiently promoted in the (α + γ) 2 phase region. Because. The holding time is more preferably 10 seconds or longer. On the other hand, when the holding time exceeds 300 seconds, the crystal grains become coarse and various properties such as strength and surface properties tend to deteriorate.

  As for the cooling rate after annealing, it is necessary to cool a temperature range of 800 to 400 ° C. at an average cooling rate of 5 ° C./s or more from the viewpoint of forming a martensite phase. In addition, in order to ensure such a cooling rate, it is preferable to perform annealing in a continuous annealing line. The reason why the start temperature specified by the cooling rate is set to 800 ° C. is that it is necessary to start cooling from the (α + γ) 2 phase region in order to obtain a martensite phase. Therefore, there is no problem even if cooling is performed at a cooling rate of 5 ° C./s or higher from an annealing temperature of 800 ° C. or higher.

  The reason why the end temperature for regulating the cooling rate is set to 400 ° C. is that the influence of the cooling rate in the temperature range from 800 ° C. to 400 ° C. is large in obtaining the martensite phase. Therefore, it is sufficient to cool at least 5 ° C / s to 400 ° C. After cooling to 400 ° C, the cooling may be continued as it is, or it may be cooled after holding for a certain time in the temperature range of 400 to 200 ° C. Good. In the case of holding, it is preferable that the holding time is 600 seconds or less so that the generated martensite phase does not soften and the manufacturing cost does not increase.

  As described above, a plated layer can be formed on the cooled steel sheet by electroplating or hot dipping. In addition, when performing alloying hot dip galvanization online, from the viewpoint of forming a martensite phase, the average temperature range from 800 ° C. to just before immersion in the plating bath is 5 ° C./s after annealing at 800 to 950 ° C. After cooling and alloying, it is preferable to cool from the alloying temperature to 400 ° C. at an average of 5 ° C./s or more. At this time, the steel plate temperature immediately before immersion in the plating bath is approximately 480 to 520 ° C., the plating bath temperature is approximately 440 to 480 ° C., and the alloying temperature is approximately 500 to 600 ° C. In addition, the cold-rolled steel sheet or the plated steel sheet thus manufactured may be subjected to temper rolling or leveler processing for the purpose of shape correction and surface roughness adjustment. The total elongation of temper rolling or leveler processing is preferably in the range of 0.2 to 15%. This is because if it is less than 0.2%, the purpose of shape correction and surface roughness adjustment may not be achieved, and if it exceeds 15%, there is a tendency to cause a significant decrease in ductility.

  Steels A to N having the compositions shown in Table 1 were melted in a converter and made into slabs by a continuous casting method. These slabs were heated to 1250 ° C., roughly rolled into sheet bars, then finish rolled at a finishing temperature of 860 ° C. to form hot rolled sheets, and wound at a winding temperature of 650 ° C. These hot-rolled sheets are pickled and cold-rolled at a rolling reduction of 65% to obtain cold-rolled sheets. Subsequently, continuous annealing is performed in the continuous annealing line under the conditions shown in Table 2, and temper rolling with an elongation of 0.5%. The steel plates No. 1, 2, and 4 to 18 were prepared. The heating rate in the temperature range of 300 to 650 ° C. was changed by changing the line speed. Steel plate No. 3 is a sample that has been plated online after annealing in a continuous hot dip galvanizing line (CGL). The plate temperature immediately before immersion in the plating bath is 500 ° C, the plating bath temperature is 460 ° C, and the alloy The conversion temperature is 550 ° C. And about the obtained sample, the microstructure was evaluated by the above-mentioned method, and the formability and the tensile characteristic were evaluated by the following method.

Formability δ: A steel plate with a blank diameter of 68 mm is punched, a punch with a diameter of 33 mm is used, the die shoulder R is 2.5 mm, the wrinkle holding force is 10 kN, the drawing speed is 10 mm / min, the drawing ratio (blank diameter / punch diameter) However, under the condition of 2.06, the die side is lubricated with lubricating oil and a Teflon (registered trademark) sheet to form a cup, and a ring sample having a width of 10 mm is cut from the bottom of the cup at a height of 8 mm by electric discharge machining. The outer diameter of the ring in the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction was measured and determined from the above formulas (2) and (3). At this time, the Young's modulus E was calculated to be 210 GPa (= 210 × 10 ³ MPa) and the Poisson's ratio ν was 0.3. The plate thickness t was 1.2 mm.

  Tensile property value: JIS No. 5 tensile test specimen is taken from the sample in the direction of 90 ° to the rolling direction, and the tensile test is performed at a constant crosshead speed of 10 mm / min in accordance with the provisions of JIS Z 2241. YS, TS, YR, elongation (El), and r value were determined.

The r value was measured by taking a JIS No. 5 tensile specimen from the sample in the rolling direction, 45 ° direction with respect to the rolling direction and 90 ° direction with respect to the rolling direction, and applying 10% uniaxial tensile strain. The width strain and the plate thickness strain of the test piece were measured, and the average r value (average plastic strain ratio) was calculated from the following formula in accordance with the provisions of JIS S 2254 to evaluate deep drawability.
Average r value = (r ₀ + 2r ₄₅ + r ₉₀ ) / 4
Here, r _0, r _{45, and} r ₉₀ are plastic strain ratios measured with test pieces taken from 0 °, 45 °, and 90 ° directions with respect to the rolling direction, respectively.

Microstructure: After the mirror thickness of the sheet thickness section in the rolling direction, 1.5% Nital corrosion was applied, and SEM photographs were used to observe the thickness around 1/4 with SEM at 2000 times. The area ratio was determined. In addition, the martensite phase was quantitatively evaluated for the ratio of the flatness ratio of 2 or less and the average area. The average area of the martensite phase was obtained from the following formula for the three fields of view and averaged.
Average area of martensite phase = [area ratio of martensite phase in observation field (%)] × [area of observation field (μm ² )] / [number of martensite phases observed in observation field]
