Specification

Title of invention: Galvanized steel sheet, galvanized steel sheet coil, hot press-formed product manufacturing method, and automobile part
Technical field
[0001]
 The present disclosure relates to a plated steel sheet, a plated steel coil, a method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product, and an automobile part.
Background technology
[0002]
 In recent years, in order to protect the environment and prevent global warming, there is an increasing demand for suppressing the consumption of chemical fuels, and this demand is affecting various manufacturing industries. For example, automobiles, which are indispensable for daily life and activities as means of transportation, are no exception, and there is a demand for improved fuel consumption by reducing the weight of the vehicle body. However, in automobiles, simply reducing the weight of the vehicle body is not allowed in terms of product quality, and it is necessary to ensure appropriate safety.
[0003]
 Much of the structure of an automobile is formed of iron, especially a steel plate, and it is important to reduce the weight of the steel plate in order to reduce the weight of the vehicle body. However, as described above, simply reducing the weight of the steel sheet is not allowed, and it is required to secure the mechanical strength of the steel sheet. The demand for such a steel sheet is made not only in the automobile manufacturing industry but also in various manufacturing industries. Therefore, research and development have been conducted on a steel sheet that can maintain or enhance the mechanical strength even if it is thinner than the steel sheet used before by increasing the mechanical strength of the steel sheet.
[0004]
 In general, a material having high mechanical strength tends to have a low shape-freezing property in a forming process such as a bending process, and when it is processed into a complicated shape, the process itself becomes difficult. As one of means for solving the problem regarding the moldability, there is so-called "hot press molding (hot press method, high temperature press method, die quench method)". In this hot press forming, the material to be formed is once heated to a high temperature, and the steel sheet softened by heating is subjected to press working to be formed and then cooled.
[0005]
 According to this hot press molding, the material is once heated to a high temperature to be softened, so that the material can be easily pressed, and the mechanical strength of the material is improved by the quenching effect by cooling after molding. Can be increased. Therefore, by this hot press molding, it is possible to obtain a molded product having both good shape fixability and high mechanical strength.
[0006]
 However, when this hot press forming is applied to a steel sheet, by heating at a high temperature of, for example, 800° C. or higher, iron on the surface is oxidized and scales (oxides) are generated. Therefore, a step of removing the scale (descaling step) is required after performing the hot press molding, and the productivity is reduced. Further, in the case of a member requiring corrosion resistance, it is necessary to perform rust prevention treatment or metal coating on the surface of the member after processing, which requires a surface cleaning step and a surface treatment step, which also reduces productivity.
[0007]
 An example of a method of suppressing such a decrease in productivity is a method of coating a steel sheet. In general, various materials such as organic materials and inorganic materials are used as the coating on the steel sheet. Among them, zinc-based plated steel sheets, which have a sacrificial anticorrosion action on steel sheets, are widely used for automobile steel sheets and the like from the viewpoint of their anticorrosion performance and steel sheet production technology. However, the heating temperature (700 to 1000° C.) in hot press molding is higher than the decomposition temperature of organic materials and the boiling point of metallic materials such as Zn-based materials, and when heated for hot press molding, The plating layer may evaporate, causing a significant deterioration in surface properties.
[0008]
 Therefore, for a steel plate subjected to hot press forming that is heated to a high temperature, for example, a so-called aluminized steel plate coated with an Al-based metal having a higher boiling point than an organic material coating or a Zn-based metal coating is used. Preferably.
[0009]
 By applying the Al-based metal coating, it is possible to prevent the scale from adhering to the surface of the steel sheet, and the steps such as the descaling step are unnecessary, so that the productivity is improved. Further, since the Al-based metal coating also has a rust preventive effect, the corrosion resistance after coating is also improved. Patent Document 1 describes a method of using an aluminum-plated steel sheet obtained by applying an Al-based metal coating to steel having a predetermined steel component for hot press forming.
[0010]
 However, when an Al-based metal coating is applied, depending on the preheating conditions before press forming, the Al coating first melts, and then changes into an aluminum-iron alloy layer due to Fe diffusion from the steel plate, The aluminum-iron alloy layer may grow and become an aluminum-iron alloy layer even on the surface of the steel sheet. Hereinafter, the aluminum-iron alloy is also referred to as "Al-Fe alloy" or "alloy". Since this alloy layer is extremely hard, processing scratches are formed by contact with the mold during press working.
[0011]
 On the other hand, Patent Document 2 discloses a wurtz such as a zinc oxide film (hereinafter also referred to as “ZnO film”) for the purpose of improving the chemical conversion treatment property and the corrosion resistance as well as the hot lubricity in order to prevent the occurrence of processing scratches. A method of forming a film of a mineral compound on the surface of an Al-plated steel sheet is disclosed.
[0012]
 On the other hand, Patent Document 3 discloses a film of one or more Zn compounds selected from the group consisting of Zn hydroxide, Zn phosphate, and organic acid Zn for the purpose of improving the adhesion of the ZnO film during press molding. Is disclosed on the surface of an Al-plated steel sheet. In the method of Patent Document 3, a ZnO film is formed by heat when hot-press forming an Al-plated steel sheet on which a Zn compound film is formed, a ZnO film having excellent adhesion is formed, and hot lubrication is performed. , Coating adhesion, spot weldability, and corrosion resistance after coating can be improved.

For this reason, in the high surface pressure portion of the hot press molding, it is necessary to take care of the mold in order to cope with the wear generated on the sliding surface of the mold. It was expected that the die wear would be reduced by the plated steel sheets of Patent Documents 2 to 3, but even with the Patent Documents 2 to 3, the die wear could not be resolved like other non-plated materials and plated steel sheets. It was

MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
[0020]
 Next, the present disclosure will be described in detail.
 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this specification and the drawings, components having substantially the same functional configuration may be given the same reference numeral, and redundant description may be omitted.
[0021]
 
 A plated steel sheet according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described.
 The plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment is a steel sheet, a first aluminum plating layer provided on the first surface of the steel sheet, and a zinc compound layer or a metal zinc layer provided on the surface of the first aluminum plating layer, And a second aluminum plating layer provided on the outermost surface of the second surface of the steel sheet. The plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment has a zinc compound layer or a metal zinc layer as the outermost surface layer on the first surface side of the steel sheet, and a second aluminum plating layer as the outermost surface layer on the second surface side of the steel sheet. (See Figure 1). That is, the first surface of the plated steel sheet is composed of the zinc compound layer or the metallic zinc layer, and the second surface of the plated steel sheet is composed of the second aluminum plating layer.
 In FIG. 1, 10 is a plated steel plate, 12 is a steel plate, 14A is a first aluminum plating layer, 14B is a second aluminum plating layer, and 16 is a zinc compound layer or a metal zinc layer.
 If the surface of the plated steel sheet is coated with oil or fat to prevent stains or for cleaning, it is considered that there is no oil or fat. This is because such oils and fats are lost by the heating carried out before the hot press molding and have no effect on the product.
[0022]
 Here, the first surface and the second surface of the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment, and the first surface and the second surface of the steel sheet are surfaces facing each other in the thickness direction of the steel sheet. In other words, the first surface and the second surface have a front-back relationship. When performing hot press forming, the first surface of the plated steel sheet is directed to the upper side in the direction of gravity and comes into contact with the upper die of the hot press forming die (die arranged on the upper side in the direction of gravity). Is a face. The second surface of the plated steel sheet is directed to the lower side in the direction of gravity and is a surface that comes into contact with the lower die of the hot press forming die (the die arranged on the lower side in the direction of gravity).
 That is, in the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment, the first surface in contact with the upper mold is composed of the zinc compound layer or the metal zinc layer, and the second surface in contact with the lower mold is composed of the aluminum plating layer.
[0023]
 In the present specification, the first surface of the plated steel sheet on the side that contacts the upper die is also referred to as "upper surface", and the second surface of the plated steel sheet on the side that contacts the lower die is also referred to as "lower surface".
 Further, zinc is also referred to as "Zn", aluminum plating layer as "Al plating layer", zinc oxide coating as "ZnO coating", and zinc compound layer or metal zinc layer as "Zn compound or metal Zn layer". The first aluminum plating layer is the “upper Al plating layer”, the second aluminum plating layer is the “lower Al plating layer”, the zinc oxide film provided on the surface of the first aluminum plating layer is the “upper ZnO film”, The zinc compound layer or the metal zinc layer provided on the surface of the aluminum plating layer is also referred to as an “upper Zn compound layer or an upper metal Zn layer”.
[0024]
 The plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment has the above-described configuration and is capable of forming a hot press forming die (hereinafter also referred to as a “die”) on both sliding surfaces of the upper die and the lower die. Suppresses the occurrence of wear. And the plated steel plate which concerns on this embodiment was discovered by the knowledge shown below.
[0025]
 When hot press-forming a conventional Al-plated steel sheet for hot-press forming (a plated steel sheet having Al-plated layers on both sides of the steel sheet), aluminum in the Al-plated layer reacts with the material (iron) of the mold. Seizure occurs, and a large amount of intermetallic compounds (aluminum agglomerates) produced by the seizure adhere to the surface of the die and peel off, causing the die to wear.
 Further, in the Al-plated steel sheet, aluminum oxide is easily formed on the surface of the Al-plated layer, and since it is difficult to react with the chemical conversion liquid of the chemical conversion treatment after hot press molding, the coatability is poor and the corrosion resistance of the press-formed product is low. Low.
 The chemical conversion treatment can be exemplified by zinc phosphate treatment. The zinc phosphate-treated chemical conversion liquid is mainly composed of zinc monophosphate and phosphoric acid, and contains cations (such as nickel and manganese). Further, anions (nitrate ions, α-nitrate ions, fluoride ions, etc.), organic acids (citric acid, etc.), etc. may be added to the zinc phosphate-treated chemical conversion solution.
[0026]
 For the purpose of suppressing wear of the die and improving the corrosion resistance of the press-formed product, in Patent Documents 1 and 2, a plated steel sheet having ZnO coatings formed on the surfaces of Al plating layers provided on both sides of the steel sheet (hereinafter referred to as “ An Al-plated steel sheet with a ZnO coating") has been proposed.
 Since the surface of the Al-plated layer of the Zn-coated Al-plated steel sheet is covered with the ZnO coating, even when hot-pressed, the adhesion of aluminum coagulation due to seizure on the surface of the die is suppressed, The coefficient of friction with the mold surface is reduced. As a result, wear of the mold is suppressed.
 Further, the Al-plated steel sheet with the ZnO film has high reactivity between ZnO of the ZnO film and the chemical conversion solution for the chemical conversion treatment. In addition to this, the generation of aluminum oxide on the surface of the Al plating layer is suppressed, and the alloy phase of iron and aluminum (alloy phase other than aluminum oxide) in the Al plating layer also partially reacts with the chemical conversion liquid. Therefore, the coatability is high, and the corrosion resistance of the press-formed product is also improved.
[0027]
 However, of the hot press forming, especially when the press surface pressure is high, the sliding surface of the die that slides on the plated steel plate, such as the vertical wall and flange of the press formed product, has a higher surface. Pressure is applied. Therefore, it has been found that wear may occur on the sliding surface of the die when an Al-plated steel sheet is used regardless of the presence or absence of the ZnO coating.
 It is assumed by the inventors that wear of the mold is inevitable if the mold and the aluminum plating layer are physically in direct contact with each other even with the ZnO film interposed therebetween. Therefore, we thought that it was necessary to provide a buffer material between the mold and the aluminum plated material.
[0028]
 The inventors have found that the adhesion of a large amount of aluminum cohesion to the surface of the mold causes wear of the mold. On the other hand, it was considered that the appropriate amount of aluminum adhered to the surface of the mold was effective in reducing the wear of the mold because the aluminum adhered material functions as a cushioning material for the surface of the mold. Then, as a result of conducting a test of plating adhesion to the upper mold and the lower mold, the inventors found the following. The amount of aluminum adhered to the mold differs between the upper mold and the lower mold, in order to suppress the occurrence of wear on the sliding surfaces of both the upper mold and the lower mold of the hot press mold. Has a suitable basis weight and surface condition for each surface. In an Al-plated steel sheet with a ZnO coating, if the amount of the Al-plated layer adhered (weight per unit area) is increased, the amount of the aluminum agglutinate adhered to the surface of the mold increases even with the ZnO coating.
[0029]
 Therefore, the inventors do not need to coat the inner surface of the press-molded product (for example, in the case of a press-molded product for an automobile, when the press-molded product is attached to the automobile, the surface that faces the inside of the automobile). I focused on that. That is, in an Al-plated steel sheet with a ZnO coating, the lower surface of the plated steel sheet that comes into contact with the lower die is used as the inner surface of the press-formed product, and a ZnO coating that enhances coatability and imparts corrosion resistance is formed on the lower surface side of the plated steel sheet. First, attention was paid to the fact that the lower surface of the plated steel was composed of an Al plating layer.
[0030]
 Then, in the ZnO-coated Al-plated steel sheet, the inventors formed an aluminum-plated layer exposing the lower surface of the plated steel sheet that comes into contact with the lower die, so that the sliding surface of the lower die could be coagulated with the aluminum adhered matter. It was found that the amount of coating increased moderately and that the aluminum coagulation functioned as a protective film on the sliding surface of the lower mold. That is, the inventors have obtained the following findings. If only the lower surface of the plated steel sheet that contacts the lower mold is configured with an exposed Al plating layer, the aluminum mold adheres due to the contact between the sliding surface of the lower mold and the Al plating layer, and the sliding of the lower mold. An aluminum deposit layer of appropriate thickness is formed on the surface (see (1) in FIG. 2). Then, the sliding surface of the lower mold and the Al plating layer repeatedly slide, whereby the adhesion and peeling of the aluminum coagulate is repeated on the sliding surface of the lower mold, and the aluminum coagulation having an appropriate thickness is formed. The kimono layer is maintained, and the function as a protective film for the sliding surface of the lower mold is maintained (see (2) in FIG. 2).
 In FIG. 2, 14 indicates an Al plating layer, 18 indicates a mold, 14C indicates an aluminum adhered material layer, and 14C-1 indicates a peeled aluminum adhered material.
[0031]
 Based on the above findings, the inventors of the present invention, when the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment has the above-mentioned configuration, is subjected to hot press molding, and causes the occurrence of wear on the sliding surface of the lower mold of the hot press mold. Found to suppress.
 The inventors have also found that the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment has improved weldability because the ZnO coating is not formed on the lower surface.
[0032]
 On the other hand, the inventors also studied the suppression of wear of the sliding surface when the upper die (the die placed on the upper side in the direction of gravity) of the hot press die has a high surface pressure. .. As a result, the following findings were obtained. In an Al-plated steel sheet with a ZnO film, the Al-plated layer on the upper surface side of the plated steel sheet that comes into contact with the upper die is different from the Al-plated layer on the lower surface side of the plated steel sheet even when subjected to the heat of hot press forming. Due to the influence of, the unevenness of the plating is unlikely to occur and the uneven thickness is unlikely to occur. For this reason, it is difficult for a portion where the surface pressure is further locally increased on the sliding surface of the upper mold, which has a high surface pressure, to increase the adhesion amount (unit weight) of the Al plating layer and increase the aluminum on the surface of the upper mold. If the amount of the adhered substance is increased, the aluminum adhered substance functions as a protective film. Further, when the adhesion amount of the Al plating layer is increased, the projections on the surface of the Al plating layer become dense, and therefore the projections on the surface of the ZnO film also become dense according to the surface texture of the Al plating layer. Therefore, if the adhesion amount of the Al plating layer is increased, the surface pressure applied to the sliding surface of the upper die also decreases.
[0033]
 Moreover, the inventors have found the following. At the time of hot press forming, the ZnO film on the upper surface side of the Al-plated steel sheet may be present at the time of hot press forming. Therefore, before the hot press forming, the “upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer” which becomes the ZnO coating by heating may be present on the upper surface side of the Al-plated steel sheet in addition to the ZnO coating.
[0034]
 Based on the above findings, the inventors of the present invention, in the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment, increase the adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer to form the outer surface of the press-formed product, thereby improving the coatability and the corrosion resistance. It has been found that wear of the sliding surface of the upper mold can be suppressed even with the ZnO coating.
[0035]
 Hereinafter, details of the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment will be described.
[0036]
(Steel plate) A steel plate to be
 plated (a steel plate before plating) has, for example, high mechanical strength (for example, tensile strength, yield point, elongation, drawing, hardness, impact value, fatigue strength, creep strength, etc.). Steel sheet having various properties relating to mechanical deformation and fracture of a. An example of a steel plate (a steel plate before plating) that realizes high mechanical strength used for the plated steel plate according to this embodiment is as follows. In addition, the notation of% means mass% unless otherwise specified.
[0037]
 The steel sheet is, by mass%, C: 0.01 to 0.6%, Si: 0.01 to 0.6%, Mn: 0.3 to 3%, P: 0.001 to 0.03%, S : 0.0001 to 0.02%, Cr: 0.001 to 2.5%, Ti: 0.01 to 0.1%, Al: 0.01 to 0.1%, Mo: 0.001 to 1 0.5% and B: at least one of 0.0001 to 0.1% is preferably contained, and the balance is Fe and impurities.
 Specifically, for example, a steel sheet is mass%, and as essential elements, C: 0.01 to 0.6%, Si: 0.01 to 0.6%, Mn: 0.3 to 3%, P : 0.001-0.03%, S: 0.0001-0.02%, and the balance Fe and impurities. And, if necessary, as selective elements, Cr: 0.001 to 2.5%, Ti: 0.01 to 0.1%, Al: 0.01 to 0.1%, Mo: 0.001 to 1.5% and at least one of B: 0.0001 to 0.1% may be contained.
[0038]
 C is contained in order to ensure the desired mechanical strength. When C is less than 0.01%, sufficient improvement in mechanical strength cannot be obtained, and the effect of containing C becomes poor. On the other hand, if C exceeds 0.6%, the steel sheet can be further hardened, but melt cracking tends to occur. Therefore, the C content is preferably 0.01% or more and 0.6% or less.
[0039]
 Si is one of the strength improving elements for improving the mechanical strength, and is contained in order to secure the desired mechanical strength, like C. When Si is less than 0.01%, it is difficult to exert the strength improving effect, and sufficient mechanical strength cannot be obtained. On the other hand, Si is also an easily oxidizable element. Therefore, if Si exceeds 0.6%, wettability may be deteriorated and non-plating may occur during hot dip aluminum plating. Therefore, the Si content is preferably 0.01% or more and 0.6% or less.
[0040]
 Mn is one of the strengthening elements that strengthens steel, and is also one of the elements that enhance hardenability. Further, Mn is also effective in preventing hot brittleness due to S, which is one of the impurities. If Mn is less than 0.3%, these effects cannot be obtained, and if 0.3% or more, the above effects are exhibited. On the other hand, when Mn exceeds 3%, the residual γ phase becomes excessive and the strength may decrease. Therefore, the Mn content is preferably 0.3% or more and 3% or less.
[0041]
P is an impurity and adversely affects the hot workability, so it is preferably limited to 0.03% or less. More preferably, it is limited to 0.02% or less. On the other hand, reducing P more than necessary imposes a great load on the steelmaking process, so 0.001% is preferable as the lower limit.
[0042]
 S is an impurity and adversely affects mechanical properties such as hot workability, ductility, and toughness, so S is preferably limited to 0.02% or less. More preferably, it is limited to 0.01% or less. On the other hand, if it is reduced more than necessary, a great load is applied to the steel making process, so 0.0001% is preferable as the lower limit.
[0043]
 Cr has the effect of suppressing the nitriding reaction of Al (formation of AlN), which is a competitive reaction when the Al plating layer is made into an Al—Fe alloy, and enhancing the adhesion between the base material and the plating layer. In order to ensure the adhesion between the base material and the plating layer, it is contained if necessary. Even if Cr is added in excess of 2.5%, the effect is saturated and the manufacturing cost is increased, so 2.5% is preferable as the upper limit. It is more preferably 2.0% or less. Further, Cr is an atom that affects the diffusion behavior of Fe and also affects the phase configuration and morphology of the alloy layer. On the other hand, reducing Cr more than necessary imposes a great load on the steelmaking process, so 0.001% is preferable as the lower limit.
[0044]
 Ti is one of the strength enhancing elements and is also an element that improves the heat resistance of the Al plating layer. If Ti is less than 0.01%, the effect of improving strength and the effect of improving oxidation resistance cannot be obtained, and if 0.01% or more, these effects are exhibited. On the other hand, if Ti is contained too much, for example, carbides and nitrides may be formed to soften the steel. In particular, if Ti exceeds 0.1%, it is likely that the desired mechanical strength cannot be obtained. Therefore, the Ti content is preferably 0.01% or more and 0.1% or less.
[0045]
 Al is used as a deoxidizing element, but since it forms an oxide film, it adversely affects the plating property. However, if the Al content is 0.1% or less, the adverse effect thereof is allowed. The content of Al is preferably 0.07% or less. On the other hand, if the amount of Al is less than 0.01%, a large load is applied to the steelmaking process, so 0.01% may be the lower limit.
[0046]
 Mo can be added from the viewpoint of improving hardenability and improving material strength. However, Mo is an extremely expensive element, and a large amount of addition leads to a significant increase in cost. Therefore, the content of Mo is preferably 1.5% or less from the viewpoint of cost reduction. On the other hand, if the amount of Mo is less than 0.001%, a large load is applied to the steelmaking process, so 0.001% is preferably the lower limit.
[0047]
 B has the effect of acting during quenching and improving strength. When B is less than 0.0001%, such strength improving effect is low. On the other hand, if B exceeds 0.1%, inclusions may be formed to embrittle and reduce fatigue strength. Therefore, the B content is preferably 0.0001% or more and 0.1% or less.
[0048]
 In addition, this steel sheet may contain impurities (for example, chemical components such as Cu, Nb, and V, and oxides, nitrides, and the like) that are mixed in in other manufacturing processes.
[0049]
 A steel sheet formed of such a chemical component can be hardened by heating by hot press forming or the like, and have a mechanical strength of, for example, about 1500 MPa or more. Although it is a steel sheet having high mechanical strength as described above, if it is processed by hot press forming, it can be easily formed because hot press forming can be performed in a softened state by heating. Further, the steel sheet can realize high mechanical strength, and even if it is thinned for weight reduction, the mechanical strength can be maintained or improved.
[0050]
(Al plated layer) The
 upper Al plated layer and the lower Al plated layer will be described. Hereinafter, common items will be referred to as “Al plating layer” and described.
[0051]
 The component composition of the Al plating layer should just contain 50% or more of Al. The elements other than Al are not particularly limited, but Si may be positively contained for the following reason.
[0052]
 When Si is contained in the Al plating layer, an Al—Fe—Si alloy layer is formed at the interface between the plating and the base metal, and it is possible to suppress the formation of a brittle Al—Fe alloy layer generated during hot dipping. If the Si content is less than 3%, the Al—Fe alloy layer grows thick at the stage of applying aluminum plating, which promotes cracking of the plating layer during processing, which may adversely affect the corrosion resistance. On the other hand, when Si exceeds 15%, on the contrary, the volume ratio of the layer containing Si increases, and the workability and corrosion resistance of the plated layer may decrease. Therefore, the Si content in the Al plating layer is preferably 3 to 15%.
[0053]
 The Al plating layer prevents corrosion of the steel sheet. Further, when the plated steel sheet is processed by hot press forming, the Al plating layer does not oxidize the surface and generate scale (iron oxide) even when heated to a high temperature. By preventing the scale generation in the Al plating layer, the step of removing the scale, the surface cleaning step, the surface treatment step, etc. can be omitted, and the productivity of the molded product is improved. Also, the Al plating layer has a higher boiling point and melting point than the plating layer made of an organic material and the plating layer made of another metal material (for example, Zn material). Therefore, when forming by hot press forming, the Al plating layer is hard to evaporate, so that hot press forming at a high temperature becomes possible. Therefore, the moldability in the hot press molding is further enhanced, and the molding can be easily performed.
 There may be a very thin (for example, 0.1 μm or less in thickness) oxide Al film on the surface of the Al plating layer. In this case, it is considered that there is no Al oxide film. This is because the Al oxide film before hot press molding does not particularly affect the hot press molding and the hot press molding.
[0054]
 The Al plating layer can be alloyed with Fe in the steel sheet during hot dipping and heating associated with hot press forming. Therefore, the Al plating layer is not always formed of a single layer having a constant composition, and includes a partially alloyed layer (alloy layer).
[0055]
 The adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer is preferably 40 to 160 g/m 2 in terms of Al amount . By setting the adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer to 40 g/m 2 or more, an appropriate amount of aluminum coagulate is adhered to the sliding surface of the upper mold, and the effect of suppressing wear of the sliding surface of the upper mold is achieved. Increase. Therefore, the lower limit of the adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer is preferably 40 g/m 2 or more, and more preferably 60 g/m 2 or more.
 On the other hand, when the adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer exceeds 160 g/m 2 , the unevenness of the thickness of the upper Al plating layer becomes large and the local surface pressure on the sliding surface of the upper die becomes large. As a result, the tendency of wear of the sliding surface of the upper mold is increased. Therefore, the upper limit of the adhesion amount of the upper Al plating layer, 160 g / m 2 preferably less, 120 g / m 2 or less is more preferable.
[0056]
 The adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer is preferably 20 to 100 g/m 2 in terms of Al amount . By setting the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer to 20 g/m 2 or more, an appropriate amount of aluminum coagulate is adhered to the sliding surface of the lower mold, and the effect of suppressing wear of the sliding surface of the lower mold is achieved. Will increase. In addition, the corrosion resistance of the press-formed product also increases. Therefore, the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer is preferably 20 g/m 2 or more. Further, by setting the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer to 40 g/m 2 or more, appropriate plating adhesion to the mold surface occurs, and the effect of suppressing wear of the sliding surface of the lower mold is further enhanced. Therefore, the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer is more preferably 40 g/m 2 or more.
 On the other hand, when the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer exceeds 100 g/m 2 , a large amount of aluminum coagulate adheres to the sliding surface of the lower die, causing abrasion of the sliding surface of the lower die. The tendency increases. for that reason. The adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer is preferably 100 g/m 2 or less, and the adhesion amount of the lower Al plating layer is 80 g/m 2 or less, which results in appropriate plating adhesion to the mold surface. It is more preferably 80 g/m 2 or less because the effect of suppressing the wear of the sliding surface of the lower die can be obtained .
[0057]
 Here, the upper aluminum plating layer is a state in which the upper ZnO film is formed on the surface of the upper aluminum plating layer. It is good to let it adhere. Therefore, it is preferable that the amount of the upper aluminum plating layer attached is large (thick basis weight is good). On the other hand, the lower aluminum plating layer should adhere an appropriate amount of aluminum agglomerate to the sliding surface of the lower mold in order to suppress wear of the sliding surface of the lower mold, but It is preferable to suppress the deviation of the Al plating layer due to heating and suppress the occurrence of uneven thickness. Therefore, it is preferable that the lower aluminum plating layer is attached in a small amount (that is, a thin weight is good).
 Therefore, it is preferable that the adhesion amount of the upper aluminum plating layer is larger than that of the lower aluminum plating layer.
[0058]
 The adhesion amount of the Al plating layer of the steel sheet before hot press forming is determined from (plating thickness×2.7) by measuring the plating thickness described in JIS H 8672:1995 (hot dip aluminum plating test method), for example. .. As a specific method of measuring the plating thickness, the cross section of the target material is mirror-polished, the cross section is observed with an electron microscope (for example, observed at 1000 times), and the plating thickness is equally spaced from both ends in the same visual field. Measure at 5 points and use the average value as the plating thickness at that point. The term “plated layer” as used herein includes the thickness of the Al—Fe alloy layer formed at the interface between the plated layer and the base layer.
 As a method of estimating the adhesion amount of the Al plating layer on the steel sheet before hot press forming from the steel sheet after hot press forming, for example, cross-section observation including a plating layer near the surface by an electron microscope is used. In the mirror polishing of the cross section at this time, the plating layer and the base layer having a martensite structure can be distinguished by performing an etching treatment with 2% nital. Cross-sectional observation including the plating layer and the base layer on the surface: For example, by observing the cross-section at 1000 times, the average thickness of the Al plating and the Al diffusion layer in the observation field and tAl are measured, and the following conversion formula (1) is used. Estimate the adhesion amount of the Al plating layer on the steel sheet before hot press forming.
Formula (1) Adhesion amount of Al plating layer (g/m 2 )=(tAl(μm)−5)×3 (g/μm·m 2 )
[0059]
(Upper Zn Compound Layer or Upper Metal Zn Layer) The
 upper Zn compound layer or upper metal Zn layer is an upper ZnO film or a layer that becomes an upper ZnO film during hot press molding. Prior to hot press forming, the plated steel sheet is heated in an oxidizing atmosphere. At this time, the upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer other than the upper ZnO film is oxidized to become the upper ZnO film. The upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer other than the upper ZnO film may be of any type as long as it is oxidized to form the upper ZnO film. Examples of the Zn compound layer other than the upper ZnO film include a zinc phosphate layer and a Zn-based metal soap layer. Further, the Zn compound and the metallic Zn may be mixed with a resin that burns and disappears by heating to form an upper Zn compound layer other than the upper ZnO film or a metallic Zn layer. The amount of Zn contained in the upper Zn compound layer or the metallic Zn layer is adjusted according to the amount of the upper ZnO film deposited on the target product.
[0060]
(Upper ZnO Coating) The
 upper ZnO coating is a surface that comes into contact with the upper mold and is the outer surface of the press-formed product.
[0061]
 The method of forming the upper ZnO film is not particularly limited, and it can be formed on the Al plating layer by the method described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, for example.
[0062]
 From the viewpoint of corrosion resistance of the product, it is preferable that the amount of the upper ZnO film deposited is 0.4 to 4.0 g/m 2 in terms of Zn amount . When the adhesion amount of the upper ZnO film is 0.4 g/m 2 or more in terms of Zn amount , the corrosion resistance of the press-formed product is enhanced. Therefore, the lower limit of the adhesion amount of the upper ZnO film is preferably 0.4 g/m 2 or more in terms of Zn amount .
 When the adhesion amount of the upper ZnO coating exceeds 4.0 g/m 2 in terms of Zn amount, the thickness of the Al plating layer and the ZnO coating may become too thick, and the weldability and paint adhesion may deteriorate. Therefore, the upper limit of the adhesion amount of the upper ZnO film is preferably 4.0 g/m 2 in terms of Zn amount . Considering the productivity of the product, the upper limit of the adhesion amount of the upper ZnO film is more preferably 2.0 g/m 2 in terms of Zn amount .
 From the viewpoint of die wear, when the amount of the upper Al plating layer deposited is low, the amount of the upper ZnO coating deposited is preferably high within the above range.
 As a method for measuring the amount of ZnO coating deposited before hot press molding, for example, the thickness of ZnO coating is measured, and the amount of deposition is calculated by (ZnO coating thickness×2). As a specific method for determining the ZnO film thickness, the cross section is mirror-polished, and the cross section including the ZnO layer and the plating layer near the surface is observed by an electron microscope (for example, 10000 times), and the both ends are equally spaced from each other in the same visual field. The ZnO film thickness is measured at 5 points, and the average value is taken as the ZnO film thickness at that location.
 Also, in the steel sheet and the product after hot press forming, the presence of the ZnO layer is confirmed by an energy dispersive X-ray analyzer (Energy Dispersive X-ray analyzer) by observing the cross section including the ZnO layer and the plating layer near the surface by an electron microscope. -ray Spectrometer, EDX or EDS), the presence or absence of the upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer of the steel sheet before hot press forming can be confirmed.
[0063]

 The method of manufacturing a hot-press molded product according to the present embodiment includes hot-pressing the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment, It is a method of manufacturing a press-formed product.
[0064]
 Specifically, the method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment is a hot-pressing process in which a plated steel sheet is heated and then pressed by a mold having an upper mold and a lower mold to perform hot press molding. A method for manufacturing a press-formed product, comprising hot-pressing a plated steel sheet with the first surface of the plated steel sheet facing upward in the direction of gravity and the second surface facing downward in the direction of gravity. This is a method for producing a molded product.
[0065]
 That is, in the method for manufacturing the hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment, the upper die is in contact with the first surface of the plated steel sheet (the surface of the upper ZnO film), and the lower die is the second surface of the plated steel sheet (lower surface). The plated steel sheet is hot press formed so as to come into contact with the surface of the side Al plating layer). When hot press molding is performed in this state, wear of the lower mold can be suppressed even if the press surface pressure is increased. As a result, it is possible to extend the life of the lower mold and mass-produce press-formed products at the same time.
[0066]
 In addition, in the method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment, heating (heating) of the plated steel sheet is performed with the first surface of the plated steel sheet facing upward in the gravity direction and the second surface facing downward in the gravity direction. It is preferable to perform (heating before press of the inter-press molding). When the hot press forming is heated in this state, even if the uneven thickness occurs due to the deviation of the lower Al plating layer forming the second surface of the plated steel sheet, the wear of the lower die can be suppressed. As a result, it is possible to extend the life of the lower mold and mass-produce press-formed products at the same time.
[0067]
 Further, in the method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment, it is preferable that the upper mold is a die and the lower mold is a punch. For example, the outside surface of a press-formed product for automobiles (the surface that faces the outside of the car when the press-formed product is attached to the car) is the inside surface (the surface that faces the inside of the car when the press-formed product is attached to the car). Higher corrosion resistance is required than Press-formed products are painted to obtain high corrosion resistance. When a press-formed product is applied, it is easy to apply if a ZnO film is present on the surface to be applied. The press-formed product becomes convex toward the outer surface of the press-formed product. In molding a press-molded product, a die arranged on the convex side of the press-molded product is a die. Therefore, in order to form the uppermost ZnO film on the coated surface of the press-molded product as a product, it is preferable that the upper mold is a die and the lower mold is a punch.
[0068]
 In the method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to this embodiment, the mold can have a holder. The holder is, for example, a member that presses the plated steel sheet in the portion that will become the flange portion when hot press forming. Hot press forming using a holder is drawing. The press forming pressure in drawing is higher than that in bending without using a holder. The method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment can be applied to the draw forming because the wear of the lower mold can be suppressed and the press-formed product can be mass-produced even if the press surface pressure is increased. .. That is, mass production of molded products by drawing can be realized.
[0069]
 In the method for manufacturing a hot press-formed product according to the present embodiment, in hot press-forming, for example, after blanking (punching) if necessary, the plated steel sheet is softened by heating to a high temperature. Then, using the mold, the softened plated steel sheet is pressed and formed, and then cooled. As described above, in the hot press forming, the subsequent pressing can be easily performed by softening the plated steel sheet once. Further, the press-formed product that is hot press-formed is quenched by heating and cooling, and becomes a molded product having a high tensile strength of about 1500 MPa or more.
[0070]
 As a heating method for hot press molding, in addition to an ordinary electric furnace and a radiant tube furnace, it is possible to employ a heating method such as infrared heating, electric heating, and induction heating. The heating is done in an oxidizing atmosphere. When an upper Zn compound layer or an upper metal Zn layer other than the upper ZnO film is provided as the upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer, this heating causes the upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer on the surface of the plated steel sheet to be on the upper side. It becomes a ZnO film.
[0071]
 The Al plating layer of the plated steel sheet melts when heated to the melting point or higher, and at the same time, the Al phase changes to an Al—Fe alloy phase or an Al—Fe—Si alloy phase by mutual diffusion with Fe. The melting points of the Al—Fe alloy phase and the Al—Fe—Si alloy phase are high and are about 1150° C. There are a plurality of types of Al-Fe phase and Al-Fe-Si phase, and when they are heated at a high temperature or for a long time, they change to an alloy phase having a higher Fe concentration.
[0072]
 When hot press formed, the Al plating layer becomes an aluminum-iron alloy layer. A preferable state of the aluminum-iron alloy layer as a press-formed product is a state where the surface is alloyed and the Fe concentration in the alloy phase is not high. If the Fe concentration on the surface of the Al plating layer is 10% by mass or more, it is regarded as an aluminum-iron alloy layer. If unalloyed Al remains, it is not preferable because only this portion rapidly corrodes, the corrosion resistance after coating deteriorates, and the coating film swells very easily. In order to surely prevent the coating film from swelling, the Fe concentration on the surface of the aluminum-iron alloy layer is preferably 20% by mass or more. On the other hand, when the Fe concentration in the alloy phase is too high, the corrosion resistance of the alloy phase itself is lowered, the corrosion resistance after coating is deteriorated, and the coating film swells easily. In order to prevent deterioration of corrosion resistance after coating, it is desirable that the Fe concentration on the surface of the aluminum-iron alloy layer is 80% by mass or less. In order to surely prevent deterioration of corrosion resistance after coating, it is desirable that the Fe concentration on the surface of the aluminum-iron alloy layer is 60% by mass or less. That is, the corrosion resistance of the alloy phase depends on the Fe concentration in the alloy phase. Therefore, in order to improve the corrosion resistance after coating, the alloying state is controlled by the Al deposition amount and heating conditions.
[0073]
 In the heating method for hot press molding, it is preferable that the average heating rate in the temperature range from 50° C. to a temperature 10° C. lower than the highest reached plate temperature is 10 to 300° C./sec. The average heating rate affects the productivity of hot press forming of plated steel sheets. When the average heating rate is less than 10°C/sec, it takes time to soften the galvanized steel sheet for hot press forming. On the other hand, when the temperature exceeds 300° C., although the softening is rapid, the alloying of the Al plating layer may be remarkably the cause of powdering. A general average heating rate is about 5° C./sec in the case of heating in an atmosphere. The average heating rate of 100° C./second or more can be achieved by electric heating or high frequency induction heating.
[0074]
 The structure of a high-strength (high hardness) press-formed product obtained by hot press-forming has a high proportion of martensite structure. It is necessary to heat the steel sheet to the austenite single phase region in order to obtain a high martensite structure ratio. Therefore, the target temperature for heating for hot press molding is usually 900 to 950° C. in many cases. In hot press molding, the maximum temperature to be reached is not particularly limited, but if it is less than 850°C, it is difficult to obtain sufficient quenching hardness, which is not preferable. Also, the Al plating layer needs to be an Al—Fe alloy layer. From these viewpoints, it is preferable that the highest temperature is 850° C. or higher. On the other hand, if the maximum temperature reached exceeds 1000° C., alloying may proceed too much, and the Fe concentration in the Al—Fe alloy layer may increase, resulting in a decrease in corrosion resistance after coating. From these viewpoints, the upper limit of the maximum reached temperature cannot be generally stated because it depends on the temperature rising rate and the amount of Al adhering, but considering the economical efficiency, the maximum reached temperature may be set to 1100° C. or less. preferable.
[0075]
 Then, in the hot press forming, the plated steel sheet heated to a high temperature is press formed using a die. Then, by cooling, a press-formed product having a desired shape can be obtained.
[0076]
 Here, an example of a normal process from the production of the plated steel sheet to the hot press forming is as follows.
 First, a plated steel plate coil prepared by winding a plated steel plate in a coil shape is prepared (see FIG. 3(1): in FIG. 3, 10 is a plated steel plate, 12 is a steel plate, 14A is a first aluminum plating layer, and 14B is a second layer. An aluminum plating layer, 16 is a zinc compound layer or a metallic zinc layer, and 20 is a plated steel coil.). Here, in the plated steel sheet coil, the first surface (the surface of the upper ZnO film) of the plated steel sheet faces the outer side, and the second surface (the surface of the lower Al plated layer) faces the inner side.
 Next, the plated steel sheet is pulled out from the plated steel sheet coil and blanked (punching) (FIG. 3(2) to FIG. 3(3): 22 in FIG. 3 represents a blanking material).
 Next, without inverting the blanking material (without changing the positions of the first surface and the second surface of the blanking material), the first surface of the blanking material (the surface of the upper ZnO film) faces upward, The blanking material is heated in a heating furnace with the second surface of the plenking material (the surface of the lower Al plating layer) facing downward (FIG. 3(4): 24 in FIG. 3 is a heating furnace). Indicates).
 Next, similarly, without turning over the blanking material, while holding the blanking material against the die as the upper die with the holder, a pair of a die as the upper die and a punch as the lower die are The heated blanking material is pressed by a die to form and quench (FIG. 3(5): in FIG. 3, 26 is a die, 26A is an upper die (die), and 26B is a lower die (punch). ), 26C indicates a holder).
 Then, by removing from the mold, the desired press molding can be obtained (FIG. 3 (6 ): 28 in FIG. 3 shows a press molded product).
[0077]
 As shown in an example of a normal process from the production of a plated steel sheet to hot press forming, the first surface of the plated steel sheet (the surface of the upper Zn compound layer or the upper metal Zn layer) faces the outside and the second surface (the lower surface). With the (side Al plating layer surface) facing inward, the plated steel sheet is drawn out from the plated steel sheet coil wound with the plated steel sheet (that is, the plated steel sheet is pulled out from the upper side of the plated steel sheet coil). Then, after blanking the drawn-out plated steel sheet, by performing hot press forming without inverting the obtained blanking material, even if the press surface pressure is increased, the upper die and the lower die It suppresses both abrasions and realizes mass production of press-formed products.
[0078]

 The automobile part according to the present embodiment is an automobile part formed of a hot press-formed product.

[0079]
 That is, the automobile part according to the present embodiment is a press-formed product obtained by hot press-forming the plated steel sheet according to the present embodiment and then forming a coating layer. Specifically, in the automobile part, the first surface (the surface of the upper ZnO coating) of the hot-press-formed plated steel sheet is the surface facing the convex side surface of the automobile part, and the second surface (the lower Al plating layer). Is the aluminum-iron alloy layer and the surface of the layer on which the aluminum oxide film has been formed is the surface facing the concave side of the automobile part, and the coating layer is formed on the first surface of the plated steel sheet. It is a product.
[0080]
 Here, the convex side surface of the automobile part is a surface facing the outside of the automobile when the automobile part is attached to the automobile. Alternatively, the convex surface is the outer surface of the part having a closed cross section. The concave surface of an automobile part is a surface that faces the inside of the automobile when the automobile part is attached to the automobile. Alternatively, the concave surface is the inner surface of the part having a closed cross section.
[0081]
 The quenched structure of the steel sheet includes a martensite structure or a tempered martensite structure. The quenched structure may include a bainite structure, a bainite structure, a ferrite structure, a cementite structure and the like.
 The aluminum-iron alloy layer is formed by alloying an Al plating layer between heating before hot press forming and hot press forming. The aluminum-iron alloy layer is entirely alloyed from the steel plate side to the surface side. There is an aluminum oxide film on the surface side of the second aluminum-iron alloy layer. The aluminum oxide film is a hindrance to painting, but it has corrosion resistance. Therefore, it is not necessary to paint the second surface side. The thickness of the aluminum oxide film formed during heating and hot press molding is, for example, 1 μm, depending on the manufacturing conditions.
[0082]
 Examples of automobile parts according to the present embodiment include a center pillar outer, a door outer, a roof rail outer, a side panel, and a fender. Then, these automobile parts are attached to the automobile so that the "surface on which the upper ZnO film is formed" side faces the outside of the automobile (for example, is exposed from the automobile).

[0083]
 Next, the present disclosure will be further described with reference to examples. Note that the present disclosure is not limited to the examples shown below.
[0084]

 Cold-rolled steel sheets having the plate thicknesses shown in Table 1 (% by mass, C: 0.21%, Si: 0.12%, Mn: 1.21%, P: 0.02%, Both surfaces of S: 0.012%, Ti: 0.02%, B: 0.03%, Al: 0.04%, balance: Fe and impurities) were plated with Al by the Sendzimer method. The annealing temperature was set to about 800° C., the Al plating bath contained 9% Si, and additionally Fe contained in the cold-rolled steel sheet. The adhesion amount (area weight) of the Al plating layer after plating is adjusted by a gas wiping method, and the adhesion amounts (area weight) of the first Al plating layer and the second Al plating layer formed on both surfaces of the cold rolled steel sheet are shown in Table 1. After setting the adhesion amount shown in (4), it was cooled. After that, a chemical solution (manufactured by CI Kasei Co., Ltd., nanotek slurry, particle size of zinc oxide particles=70 nm) was applied on the first Al plating layer by a roll coater and baked at about 80° C., and the adhesion amount shown in Table 1 was applied. No. 1 ZnO film was formed. In the same manner, the second ZnO film having the adhesion amount shown in Table 1 was formed on the second Al plating layer.
 Thus, the test material of the plated steel sheet was obtained.
[0085]

 Plating was performed in the same manner as in Comparative Example 1 except that the adhesion amounts of the first Al plating layer, the second Al plating layer, and the first ZnO coating were changed and the second ZnO coating was not formed. A test piece of steel plate was obtained. Similar effects can be obtained by directly arranging the ZnO film on the Al plating layer or by oxidizing the upper Zn compound other than the ZnO film or the metal Zn layer.
[0086]

 The characteristics of the test material of the plated steel sheet manufactured as described above were evaluated by the following methods. The average rate of temperature rise during heating to 920°C was 7.5°C/sec.
[0087]
(1) Hot Lubricity The
 hot lubricity evaluation apparatus shown in FIG. 5 was used to evaluate the hot lubricity of the test material of the plated steel sheet. The apparatus for evaluating hot lubricity shown in FIG. 5 includes a near-infrared heating furnace 101 and a mold including an upper mold 102A and a lower mold 102B. The upper mold 102A and the lower mold 102B each have a convex portion with a width of 10 mm extending in a direction orthogonal to the drawing direction of the plated steel sheet, and by sandwiching the sample material on the top surfaces of the convex portions, Apply the specified pressing load. Further, the hot lubricity evaluation apparatus is provided with a plated steel sheet heated in the near infrared heating furnace 101, and a thermocouple (not shown) for measuring the temperature of the plated steel sheet when sandwiched by a mold. There is. In addition, in FIG. 5, 10 shows the test material of a plated steel plate.

The drawing length was 100 mm and the drawing speed was 40 mm/s. Then, the hot friction coefficient (=(pulling load)/(pressing load)) was determined.
[0088]
(2) Amount
 of mold wear The amount of mold wear was measured by analyzing the surface shape difference of (1) the "mold of the measuring device for hot lubricity" before and after the hot lubricity evaluation test. Specifically, the profile of the mold surface in the sliding part before and after sliding was measured using a contact-type shape measuring machine to measure the amount of wear of each of the upper mold and the lower mold. ..
