Specification

Technical field
[0001]The present invention, high-strength steel sheet used for structural members and reinforcement members intensity automobiles and structures required, in particular, relates to good hot stamping body crashworthiness properties and hydrogen embrittlement resistance.
BACKGROUND
[0002]Recently, weight reduction of automobile bodies from the viewpoint of environmental protection and resource saving has been required, therefore, the application of high-strength steel sheets to automobile members is accelerating. However, since the formability due to the high strength of the steel sheet deteriorates in the high-strength steel sheet, it becomes a problem formability into complex shaped members.
[0003]To solve such problems, the application of hot stamping to implement press molding after heating the steel to a high temperature of the austenite region is underway. Hot stamping, pressing and simultaneously, since carrying out the hardening process in the mold, it is possible to obtain a strength corresponding to the C content of the steel sheet, it is attracting attention as a technology to achieve both shaping and strength secured to automotive parts ing.
[0004]However, conventional hot pressed parts manufactured by press hardening, to the plate thickness throughout is formed of a hard tissue (mainly martensite), the bending deformation at the time of vehicle collision occurs, part of the buckling portion easy greatest distortion enters, progresses cracks starting from the vicinity of the surface layer of the steel sheet, and finally lead to breakage. Also, penetration of hydrogen is promoted due to the high density of the surface layer of the lattice defects of the steel sheet, it is a problem that becomes poor hydrogen embrittlement resistance of the member. For this reason, hot pressed parts manufactured by press hardening, application site in automotive parts has been limited.
[0005]
 To the above problem, a technology for suppressing cracks by increasing the deformability of the hot pressed part is proposed. In Patent Document 1, hot pressed parts while the hardness of the plate thickness center and more than 400Hv of, by forming the surface layer has a thickness of 20μm or more 200μm or less hardness 300Hv following soft layer, the tensile strength of 1300MPa or higher while ensuring the strength of, it is disclosed that suppress the cracking during car crash. Furthermore, Patent Document 1, above the soft layer is disclosed to have a tempered structure.
[0006]
 In Patent Document 2, by controlling the carbon concentration in the surface layer of high strength automobile member carbon concentration of the inner layer steel 1/5 below, disclosed that improve the resistance to hydrogen embrittlement by reducing the density of the surface layer of lattice defects It is.
[0007]
 In Patent Document 3, a steel structure and multi-phase structure of ferrite and martensite by increasing than the area ratio of ferrite in the surface layer portion in the inner layer portion, high tensile strength, hot having excellent ductility and bendability to obtain a press-parts is disclosed.
[0008]
 However, the members described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the surface layer portion of the sheet thickness and soft tissue, the central portion of the plate thickness by forming a hard tissue, the gradient of the sudden hardness occurs in the thickness direction and will. Therefore, when subjected to bending deformation, cracking near the boundary of the soft slope of sudden hardness is occurring tissue and the hard tissue is a problem that tends to occur. Furthermore, the slope in the member, the surface portion of the sheet thickness and soft tissue, the central portion of the plate thickness by the complex structure of the hard tissue and soft tissue, the abrupt stiffness in the thickness direction described in Patent Document 3 thereby reducing the. However, since the central portion of the plate thickness and the complex structure, the upper limit of the tensile strength becomes about 1300 MPa, it is difficult to ensure a higher tensile strength 1500MPa required for the hot pressed part.

More specifically, the boundary of the hard tissue and soft tissue, by forming tissue (intermediate layer) having an intermediate hardness of these tissues, to reduce the gradient of the thickness direction stiffness, bending during deformation the stress concentration was alleviated. As a result, it is possible to bend suppress the occurrence of cracking during deformation, while ensuring the above tensile strength and good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement 1500 MPa, it is possible to obtain a good bending resistance, crashworthiness and anti We were able to obtain an excellent hot stamping body to hydrogen embrittlement characteristics.

As a result, while securing the above tensile strength and good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement 1500 MPa, it was also able to obtain an excellent hot stamping body crashworthiness characteristics in terms of ductility as well bendability.
[0014]

"Thickness direction of the hardness of the change ΔH in the surface layer 1 is more 10HV, less than 200 Hv, the change ΔH in the plate thickness direction of the intermediate layer hardness 2 or more 50 Hv, less than 200 Hv."
 In the present invention, a surface layer is intended to refer to the region from both sides or one side of the hot stamping material up to 8% of the thickness of the hot stamping material, i.e. the surface layer has a thickness of 8% of the thickness of the hot stamping member . Similarly, in the present invention, an intermediate layer, which refers to the portion excluding the surface layer of the of the region from both sides or one side of the hot stamping material up to 20% of the plate thickness of the hot stamping material, i.e. each intermediate layer has 12% of the thickness of the plate thickness of the hot stamping molding.

Here, [Delta] H 1 represents the change in the hardness of the plate thickness direction in the surface layer, [Delta] H 2 shows a change in hardness of the plate thickness direction of the intermediate layer. The present inventors have studied intensively, in view of the effect of bending resistance, hardness change in this region ([Delta] H 1 , [Delta] H 2 ) is important, [Delta] H 1But above 10HV, if it is less than 200 Hv, good bending properties and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement was found to be obtained. By having such a good bending property, it is possible to suppress the bending deformation relaxation to breakage or cracking stress due like at the time of collision, to achieve the excellent crashworthiness in hot stamping member possible it is. Meanwhile, [Delta] H 1 is less than 10HV, such bending stress is not obtained the effect of mitigating at deformation, since the crack from the surface layer is likely to progress, the lower limit and 10HV. Preferably 20Hv, and more preferably not less than 30 HV. Further, [Delta] H 1 is the case where less than 200 Hv, is enhanced effect to relax the stress concentration at the time of bending deformation, for good bending resistance is obtained, the upper limit is less than 200 Hv. Preferably less than 150 Hv, and more preferably less 100Hv or less than 95Hv, and most preferably not more than 90Hv.
[0054]
 Similarly, [Delta] H 2 is more than 50 Hv, if it is less than 200 Hv, good bending property was found to be obtained. [Delta] H 2 in the above 200 Hv, the gradient of the hardness becomes sharp in the intermediate layer, bending stress concentrations it becomes difficult to relieve upon deformation, because the bending property is deteriorated, the upper limit of less than 200 Hv. Preferably 190Hv or less, and more preferably not more than 180 Hv. The lower limit is preferably at least 60 HV, more preferably 70Hv or more.

Here, t is the thickness of the hot stamping molded article ([mu] m).
[0060]
 On the other hand, in the case of a plate thickness central portion of one side only is disposed surface and intermediate layer hot stamping molded article, using the equation (3-2), the change ΔH in the thickness direction of the hardness in the surface layer 1 calculated to.
[0061]
 Next, [Delta] H in the case of hot stamping molded surface layer and the intermediate layer is disposed on either side of the mid-thickness portion 2 will be described the method of calculating the.

[0064]
 Each surface of the surface layer of the hot stamping material, for the purpose of improvement of corrosion resistance may be formed a plating layer. Plating layer may be either a electroplating layer and the molten plating layer. Electroplating layer includes, for example, electro-galvanized layer, the electrical Zn-Ni alloy plating layer and the like.
[0065]
 Molten plating layer, for example, galvanized layer, galvannealed layer, molten aluminum plating layer, melt Zn-Al alloy plating layer, hot-dip Zn-Al-Mg alloy plating layer, hot-dip Zn-Al-Mg-Si including the alloy plating layer and the like. Coating weight of the plating layer may be a common adhesion amount is not particularly limited.
[0066]
 Next, the form of preparation for obtaining the hot stamp molding of the present invention. The following description, there intended for purposes of illustration of the process for obtaining the hot stamp molding of the present invention, multiple layers of hot stamp molding of the present invention by laminating two steel plates as described below It not intended to be limited to those obtained from the steel sheet. For example, to obtain a high strength steel sheet consisting of the surface layer and mid-thickness portion by softening the surface layer of the single layer steel sheet with decarburization, is prepared by heat treatment or the like as in the case it multilayered steel it is also possible.
[0067]
 After melting the base material steel plate satisfying the component of the plate thickness center part of the by grinding the both surfaces or one surface to remove surface oxides, on both sides or one side, to adhere the surface layer steel plate in arc welding. Incidentally, C content, Si content, and one or more one of the Mn content be laminated surface layer steel plate is less than 0.6 times the corresponding element content of the base material steel plate preferable. Reason is not clear, the results of the examination of a hot stamping molded article exhibits excellent bendability, C content of the surface layer steel plate, Si content, and any one of the Mn content or two or more It was less than 0.6 times the corresponding element content of the base material steel plate.
[0068]
 The above laminate (multilayered steel) to hot rolling, cold rolling, hot stamping, by performing such continuous hot dipping, high-strength steel sheet according to the present invention, more specifically to obtain a hot stamping member it can.
[0069]
 For example, the case of obtaining a hot-rolled steel sheet, a multilayer steel sheet produced by the above method, 1100 ° C. or higher, it is preferable to hold less than 60 minutes over 20 minutes at 1350 ° C. or lower. Such heat treatment by the applied change ΔH in the thickness direction of the hardness in the surface layer after the hot press 1 to 10Hv or more, less than 200 Hv, in particular can be controlled to be less than 100 Hv. Further, the above heat treatment, by diffusing elements between the base steel sheet and the surface layer steel plate to form an intermediate layer therebetween, and further changes in the thickness direction of the hardness at the middle layer after hot pressing [Delta] H 2 to 50Hv or more can be controlled to less than 200 Hv. In contrast, the heating temperature is less than 1100 ° C., the change [Delta] H in the thickness direction of the hardness in the surface layer after the hot press 1 exceeds the 200 Hv, the change in hardness of the plate thickness direction of the intermediate layer after hot pressing [Delta] H 2 There is less than 10Hv. In this case, the promoted infiltration of hydrogen from the hot stamping member surface, leading to deterioration of hydrogen embrittlement resistance, to further can not be obtained good bending resistance, the lower limit and 1100 ° C.. On the other hand, if the heating temperature exceeds 1350 ° C., [Delta] H 1 is less than 10HV, further, [Delta] H 2 for may exceed the 200 Hv, it is impossible to obtain good bending properties, the upper limit is 1350 ° C.. Heating and holding is preferably performed less than 60 minutes over 20 minutes. The present inventors have studied intensively, if the retention time is 20 minutes to less than 60 minutes, it is possible to obtain a bending resistance and good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement, microstructure obtained at that time is, [Delta] H 2But more than 50Hv, was found to be less than 200Hv. Therefore, the holding time is less than 60 minutes than 20 minutes.
[0070]
 Further, in order to further promote the formation of the intermediate layer in the present invention, the hot rolling after the heat treatment of the multilayer steel plate, includes a rough rolling and finish rolling, the rough rolling is rough rolling temperature is 1100 ° C. or higher, less than the plate thickness reduction rate per pass of 5% to 50%, and interpass time is 2 times or more performed are preferably under the conditions of more than 3 seconds.
[0071]
 More specifically, in order to further promote the formation of the intermediate layer in the present invention, it is necessary to control the alloying elements, in particular the concentration of C atoms distributed loosely. Distribution of C concentration obtained by the diffusion of C atoms, the diffusion frequency of C atoms is increased as the temperature rises. Therefore, in order to control the C concentration is controlled in the rough rolling it is important from the hot rolling heating. The hot rolling heating, in order to promote the diffusion of C atoms, it is necessary to high temperature heating temperature, preferably 1350 ° C. 1100 ° C. or higher, more preferably at most 1150 ° C. Ultra 1350 ° C.. The hot rolling heating, a change shown in FIG. 1 (i) and (ii) occurs. (I) is the diffusion of C atoms from a thickness center portion to the surface layer, (ii) is a decarburization of C desorbed to the outside from the surface layer. Distribution C concentration caused by balance of the diffusion and elimination reaction of the C atoms of the (i) and (ii). Is less than 1100 ° C., since the reaction of (i) is insufficient, not obtained preferably C concentration distribution. On the other hand, in the 1350 ° C. greater than the reactivity of (ii) it is excessively generated, can not be obtained likewise preferred concentration distribution.
[0072]
 After having controlled the preferred C concentration distribution by adjusting the hot rolling heating temperature, in order to obtain a more optimal C concentration distribution, the path control in the rough rolling is very important. Rough rolling the rough rolling temperature is 1100 ° C. or more, the thickness reduction rate per pass is 5% or more and less than 50%, and interpass time is performed twice or more under the conditions of more than 3 seconds. This is because the distortion introduced by the rough rolling, in order to promote the diffusion of C atoms of (i) in FIG. Assuming that a slab with a controlled C concentration in a preferable state in hot rolling heating rough rolling and finish rolling in the usual manner, so that the C atom plate thickness without being able to sufficiently diffuse within the surface layer is reduced. Accordingly, the slab having a thickness of more than 200 mm, when manufacturing a hot rolled steel sheet having a thickness of several mm by hot rolling of a conventional method, C concentration in the surface layer becomes rapidly changing steel, gradual change in hardness is obtained no. Found methods to solve this is the path control of the rough rolling. Diffusion of C atoms is greatly influenced by the strain (dislocation density) as well temperature. In particular, in comparison with the lattice diffusion, since the increasing spread frequency more than 10 times in the dislocation diffusion, while leaving the dislocation density, it is necessary to devise to reduce the sheet thickness by rolling. Curve 1 in Figure 2 is of the plate thickness reduction ratio per one pass of the rough rolling is small, it shows the dislocation density change after rolling pass, it can be seen that the strain remains for a long time. By thus leaving the strain on the surface layer for a long time, occur diffusion of C atoms in the surface layer is sufficient, it is possible to obtain an optimal C concentration distribution. Meanwhile, the curve 2 is the change of the dislocation density when the sheet thickness reduction rate large, the amount of strain introduced by rolling is increased, the recovery is likely to be promoted, the dislocation density is rapidly lowered. Therefore, in order to obtain an optimal concentration distribution of C, it is necessary not to cause a change of the dislocation density, such as curve 2. From this viewpoint, the upper limit of the sheet thickness reduction rate per one pass is less than 50%. In order to promote the diffusion of C atoms in the surface layer, because the secure dislocation density and the retention time of a quantity required, next to the lower limit of the sheet thickness reduction rate of 5%, secured over three seconds as the path between the time Is required.
[0073]
 Finish rolling may be a finish rolling carried out under normal conditions. For example, the finishing temperature may be carried out in a temperature range of not lower than 810 ° C., cooling conditions followed is not particularly necessary to define, implement the winding in a temperature range of 750 ° C. or less. Further, it is also possible to implement the re-heat treatment for softening the hot-rolled steel sheet.
[0074]
 Heating during hot stamping, molding, cooling process also may be carried out at normal conditions. For example, hot rolled steel sheet rewind wound hot rolled steel sheet in the hot rolling step, or cold-rolled steel sheet subjected to cold rolling rewind the hot-rolled steel sheet was wound, or a plated cold rolled steel sheet subjected to, 0.1 ° C. / s or higher, at 200 ° C. / s or less in heating rate, 810 ° C. or higher, then heated to a temperature of 1000 ° C. or less, conventional hot stamping the steel sheet was maintained at this temperature, the required shape in molding. Retention time, so may be set according to the molding aspect is not particularly limited, 30 seconds or more, cooling the green compact after it hot stamp equal to or less than 600 seconds to room temperature. Cooling speed may be set to a normal condition, for example, the average cooling rate in the temperature range from the heating temperature to 400 ° C. can fall within 50 ° C. / s or higher. Mid-thickness Si content 0.50% in unit exceeds, less than 3.00%, Mn content in the sheet thickness center portion is 0.20% or more, steel plate is less than 1.50% and, mid-thickness Si content 0.50% in unit exceeds, less than 3.00%, Mn content in the sheet thickness center portion is 1.50% or more, when the steel plate is less than 3.00% is , in order to improve the ductility by increasing the production amount of residual austenite, the cooling after heating and holding, 200 ° C. or higher, controlling the average cooling rate in a temperature range of 400 ° C. or less to less than 50 ° C. / s It is preferred. Further, for the purpose of adjustment of the intensity it may be subjected to tempering in the range of 0.99 ° C. ~ 600 ° C. in cooling the molded body to room temperature.
[0075]
 Cold rolling the usual reduction ratio, for example, it is a cold rolling conducted at 30 to 90%. The hot-rolled steel sheet and cold-rolled steel sheet, other than those that remain hot rolling and cold rolling are also steel sheets and subjected to recrystallization annealing under normal conditions hot-rolled steel sheet or cold-rolled steel sheet, the usual condition steel sheet was subjected to temper rolling in is also included. Conditions of the plating is not particularly limited, and may be ordinary conditions. Hot-rolled steel sheet, cold rolled steel, or the recrystallization annealing and / or temper rolling the steel sheet was subjected to cold-rolled steel sheet, if necessary, plated with ordinary plating conditions.
