DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0014]
 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
[0015]
 First, it will be described steel sheet steel structure according to the embodiment of the present invention. Steel sheet according to the present embodiment, the volume fraction of tempered martensite and bainite: less than 92% 70% in total, the residual austenite: less than 8% to 30% ferrite: less than 10%, fresh martensite: 10% below, and perlite: has less than 10%, in the steel structure represented.
[0016]
 (Tempered martensite and bainite: 70% or more but less than 92% in total)
 tempered martensite and bainite are low temperature transformation structure containing iron-base carbides, contributing to both of hole expansion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. If it is less than tempered martensite and 70% volume fraction total bainite, it is difficult to sufficiently satisfy both hole expansion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. Therefore, the volume fraction of tempered martensite and bainite are a total of 70% or more. Meanwhile, tempered martensite and the volume fraction of bainite is at 92% or more, is insufficient residual austenite which will be described later. Therefore, the volume fraction of tempered martensite and bainite is less than 92%.
[0017]
 Tempered martensite is a set of lath-like grains, diameter therein contains more iron-based carbides 5 nm. Iron-based carbides contained in the tempered martensite has a plurality of variants, iron-based carbides present in one of the crystal grains are extended in multiple directions.
[0018]
 The bainite include upper bainite and lower bainite. Lower bainite is a set of lath-like grains, diameter therein contains more iron-based carbides 5 nm. However, unlike the tempered martensite, iron-base carbide contained in the lower bainite has a single variant, iron-based carbides present in one of the crystal grains is substantially elongated in a single direction . The term "substantially single direction", angular difference means directions within 5 °. Upper bainite is a set of lath-shaped crystal grains containing no iron-based carbides therein.
[0019]
 Tempering the martensite and lower bainite can be a direction that the iron-based carbide is extended it is determined depending on whether multiple or single. If tempered martensite and the volume fraction of bainite is 70% or more in total, the breakdown is not limited. This will be described in detail later, the iron-based carbides variants because not affect the balance of hole expansion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. However, the formation of bainite, since the relatively long retention in 300 ° C. ~ 500 ° C. are required, from the viewpoint of productivity, it ratio of tempered martensite is high is preferable.
[0020]
 (Retained austenite: less than 8% to 30%)
 residual austenite transformation induced plasticity (transformation induced plasticity: TRIP) contributes to the improvement of ductility through. The volume fraction of retained austenite is less than 8%, no sufficient ductility can not be obtained. Therefore, the volume fraction of retained austenite is set to 8% or more, desirably 10% or more. On the other hand, the volume fraction of retained austenite in 30% or more, is insufficient tempered martensite and bainite. Therefore, the volume fraction of the retained austenite is less than 30%.
[0021]
 (Ferrite: 10% less)
 ferrite is a tissue of soft without the infrastructure lath or the like inside, tempered martensite and cracking due to the intensity difference at the interface between the bainite tends to occur a hard tissue. That is, the ferrite easy to degrade the toughness and hole expansion. In addition, the ferrite leads to a deterioration of the low temperature toughness. Therefore, the volume fraction of the ferrite is better as low as possible. In particular, the volume fraction of the ferrite is at least 10%, decrease in toughness and hole expansion is remarkable. Therefore, the volume fraction of ferrite is less than 10%.
[0022]
 (Fresh martensite: less than 10%)
 fresh martensite is martensite left quenching free of iron-based carbides, but contributes to the improvement of strength, greatly deteriorates hydrogen embrittlement resistance. Also, fresh martensite, resulting in deterioration of low-temperature toughness due to the difference in hardness between the tempered martensite and bainite. Therefore, the volume fraction of fresh martensite good as low as possible. In particular, the volume fraction of fresh martensite is 10% or more, significant deterioration of hydrogen embrittlement resistance. Therefore, the volume fraction of fresh martensite is less than 10%.
[0023]
 (Perlite: less than 10%)
 perlite, like ferrite, degrades the toughness and hole expansion. Therefore, the volume fraction of pearlite good The lower. In particular, the volume fraction of pearlite in more than 10%, decrease in toughness and hole expansion is remarkable. Therefore, the volume fraction of pearlite is less than 10%.
[0024]
 Will now be described iron-based carbide tempered martensite and in the lower bainite. Between the tempered martensite and iron-based carbide and the mother phase in the lower bainite contains matching interface, there is a coherent strain the alignment interface. The coherent strain exerts hydrogen trapping ability, improve hydrogen embrittlement resistance, improving the delayed fracture resistance. Such number density of iron-based carbide 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 is less than), Accordingly, tempering the number density of the iron-based carbide martensite and in the lower bainite 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 and) or more, preferably 2.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 and) above, and more desirably 3.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 and) above.
[0025]
 The iron-based carbides mainly is a general term for carbides consisting Fe and C, for example, different ε carbide crystal structure, chi carbides, cementite (theta carbide) belongs to the iron-based carbide. Iron-based carbides are present with a specific orientation relationship martensite and in the lower bainite as a matrix phase. Some of Fe contained in the iron-based carbides may be substituted by other elements Mn, Si and Cr. In this case, the number density of the iron-based carbide length of more than 5nm long axis 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 if) above, obtained excellent hydrogen embrittlement resistance.
[0026]
 Number density counting target, the size of the long axis is equal to or greater than the iron-based carbides 5 nm. Although the observable size by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy is limited, generally the long axis ferrous carbide size is more than 5nm in is observable. Major axis size may contain iron-based carbide having smaller than 5nm in tempered martensite and lower bainite. Excellent hydrogen embrittlement resistance as iron-based carbides are fine is obtained. Therefore, it is desirable iron-based carbides are fine, for example, the average length of the major axis is desirably at 350nm or less, more desirably at 250nm or less, more preferably is 200nm or less.
[0027]
 Previously, the iron-based carbides contributes to the improvement of hydrogen embrittlement resistance is not finding. This is generally due to the utilization of residual austenite and improves formability with this is the suppression of the precipitation of iron-based carbide is particularly important, presumably because precipitation of iron-based carbides have been suppressed . In other words, heretofore, not been investigated steel sheet containing retained austenite and fine iron-based carbide is believed that the effect of improving hydrogen embrittlement resistance by ferrous carbide in TRIP steel was found.
[0028]
 Next, a description will be given effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite. Although will be described later method of measuring the effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite, the effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite in the 5μm greater, sufficient toughness can not be obtained. Therefore, the effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite and 5μm or less, preferably to 3μm or less.
[0029]
 Next, an example of a method of measuring the volume fraction of the tissue.
[0030]
 Ferrite, pearlite, upper bainite, the measurement of the volume fraction of lower bainite and tempered martensite, a sample is taken as an observation plane section parallel to the parallel and the thickness direction to the rolling direction of a steel plate. Then, by polishing the observation surface, and nital etching, electrolytic emission at 5000 × magnification range of the thickness from the surface of the steel sheet when the t from the depth of t / 8 to a depth of 3t / 8 of the steel sheet scanning electron microscope observation at (field emission scanning electron microscope FE-SEM). By this method, it is possible to identify ferrite, pearlite, bainite and tempered martensite. Tempered martensite, upper bainite and lower bainite can be distinguished from each other by the presence or absence and the extension direction of the iron-based carbides within lath-like grains. Such observation performed on 10 fields, ferrite from the average value of 10 fields, pearlite, upper bainite, the area fraction of lower bainite and tempered martensite is obtained. Since the area fraction is equivalent to the volume fraction, it can be directly used as the volume fraction. In this observation, the number density of the iron-based carbide tempered martensite and in the lower bainite can also be specified.
[0031]
 In the measurement of the volume fraction of retained austenite, a sample was taken from the steel sheet, a portion to a depth of t / 4 from the surface of the steel sheet was chemically polished, the depth from the parallel surface of the steel sheet in the rolling surface of the t / 4 measuring the X-ray diffraction intensity in a plane. For example, the volume fraction Vγ of the retained austenite is represented by the following equation.
 V? = (I 200f + I 220f + I 311f ) / (I 200b + I 211b ) ×
100 (I 200f , I 220f , I 311f are respectively face-centered cubic (fcc) lattice phase (200), (220), (311 intensity of the diffraction peaks of), I 200b , I 211b has a body-centered cubic lattice, respectively (bcc) phase (200), indicating the intensity of the diffraction peak of (211).)
[0032]
 Fresh martensite and retained austenite, because they are not sufficiently corrosion by nital etching, can be distinguished ferrite, pearlite, bainite and tempered martensite. Therefore, it is possible to identify the volume fraction of fresh martensite by reducing the volume fraction Vγ of retained austenite from the volume fraction of the remainder of the FE-SEM observation.
[0033]
 Tempering the martensite and measurement of the effective crystal grain size of the bainite, electron backscatter diffraction (electron back-scatter diffraction: EBSD) performing the crystal orientation analysis by. In this analysis, it is possible to calculate the orientation difference between two adjacent measurement points. While thinking about the effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite There are various, the present inventors have found that the block boundary is a valid crystal units for crack propagation governing the toughness. Block boundary is generally because the heading difference can be determined in a region surrounded by the boundaries of more than 10 °, the crystal orientation map on measurements by EBSD, can be reflected by illustrating the boundaries with misorientation than 10 °. The circle equivalent diameter of the area surrounded by boundaries having a misorientation of such 10 ° or more and the effective crystal grain size. According to the verification by the present inventors, if the heading difference is regarded as the effective crystal grain boundaries between 10 ° or more measurement points are present, a significant correlation between the effective crystal grain boundary and the toughness is confirmed ing.

In the method of manufacturing the steel sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention, it performs steel hot rolling having the above chemical composition, cold rolling, continuous annealing and tempering treatment and the like in this order.
[0051]
 (Hot rolling)
 The hot-rolling, performing rough rolling and finish rolling. Method for producing a slab subjected to hot rolling is not limited, may be used continuously cast slab may be used those produced by thin slab caster or the like. May also be carried out immediately hot rolled after continuous casting. Cast slab, after casting, without cooling, or once after cooling, heating above 1150 ° C.. The heating temperature is less than 1150 ° C., the finish rolling temperature tends to be lower than 850 ° C., the rolling load becomes higher. From the viewpoint of cost, the heating temperature is desirably set to less than 1350 ° C..
[0052]
 In rough rolling, rolling reduction at 1000 ° C. or higher 1150 ° C. or less performs at least once a rolling 40% or more, to fine the austenite before the finish rolling.
[0053]
 In the finish rolling, the continuous rolling using five-seven finish rolling mill are arranged at intervals of about 5 m. Then, a rolling of the final three stages at 1020 ° C. or less, the total reduction ratio in the rolling of the final three stages was 40% or more, the passing time of the rolling of the final three stages to 2.0 seconds or less. Further, to start water cooling by the elapsed time rolled from the 1.5 seconds of the final stage. Here, the rolling of the final three stages, means a rolled using the last three rolling mills. For example, when performing continuous rolling with six rolling mills, means rolling at six th rolling mills from four eyes total reduction ratio in the rolling of the final three stages, the four second rolling mill when the plate thickness t6 when the plate thickness coming out t4,6 units th rolling mill on entry, is calculated by "(t4-t6) / t4 × 100 (%)". Transit time of rolling of the final three stages, refers to the time from coming out of the steel plate from the four eyes of the rolling mill to come out of the six eyes of the rolling mill, the elapsed time from the rolling of the final stage, It refers to the time from coming out of the steel sheet from six eyes of the rolling mill until the water cooling is started. Between the rolling mill and a water cooling facility in the final stage, there may be sections that measure the properties of the steel sheet, such as temperature and thickness.
[0054]
 The grain refining of tissue after the finish rolling, rolling reduction in finishing rolling, between temperature and path time is important.
[0055]
 When the temperature of the steel sheet during the rolling of the final three stages is 1020 ° C. greater than can not be sufficiently fine austenite grains. Accordingly, rolling of the final three stages are carried out at 1020 ° C. or less. When performing continuous rolling with six rolling mills, in order to perform rolling of the final three stages at 1020 ° C. or less, the inlet side temperature of the four th rolling mill and 1020 ° C. or less, even by subsequent processing heat generated during rolling , the temperature of the steel sheet so as not to become a 1020 ℃ than.
[0056]
 If the total reduction ratio in the rolling of the final three stages is less than 40%, the cumulative rolling strain becomes insufficient, it can not be sufficiently fine austenite grains. Therefore, the total reduction ratio in the rolling of the final three stages is 40% or more.
[0057]
 The final three stages transit time rolling is dependent on the path between the time, the transit time is longer between longer paths time, recrystallization and grain growth of austenite grains is likely to progress between two consecutive rolling mills. Then, recrystallization and grain growth of the austenite grains the transit time of 2.0 seconds greater tends to be remarkable. Accordingly, the final three stages transit time rolling is less 2.0 seconds. From the viewpoint of suppressing recrystallization and grain growth of austenite grains, the elapsed time from the rolling of the final stage to the water-cooling start good the shorter. The elapsed time is the austenite grains recrystallization and grain growth at 1.5 seconds than likely noticeable. Thus, the elapsed time from the rolling of the final stage to the water-cooling start is less 1.5 seconds. Between the rolling mill and a water cooling facility in the final stage, if there is the section to measure the properties of the steel sheet, such as temperature and thickness, even if it is not possible to start the water cooling immediately elapsed time is less than 1.5 seconds if it is possible to suppress the recrystallization and grain growth of austenite grains.
[0058]
 In a range that does not inhibit the ability of the finish rolling, it cooled at a water cooling nozzle or the like immediately after the finish rolling, it is also possible to refine the austenite grains. After rough rolling, by joining a plurality of rough rolling plate obtained in rough rolling may be subjected to continuous finish rolling them. Further, the rough rolled sheet once wound up may be subjected to finish rolling while unwinding it.
[0059]
 Finish rolling temperature (completion temperature of finish rolling) is the 850 ° C. or higher 950 ° C. or less. When the finish rolling temperature is 2-phase region of austenite and ferrite, tissue of the steel sheet becomes uneven, it can not be obtained excellent formability. Further, the finish rolling temperature is less than 850 ° C., the rolling load becomes higher. From the viewpoint of fine austenite grains, the finishing rolling temperature is desirably to 930 ° C. or less.
[0060]
 Coiling temperature after hot rolling is set to 730 ° C. or less. The coiling temperature is 730 ° C. greater, it can not be an effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite in the steel sheet 5μm or less. Further, the coiling temperature is 730 ° C. greater, is formed a thick oxide on the surface of the steel sheet, pickling properties sometimes decrease. The effective crystal grain size in the fine and improve the toughness, from the viewpoint of improving the hole expansion by uniformly dispersing the residual austenite, the coiling temperature is desirably between 680 ° C. or less. The lower limit of the coiling temperature is not limited, the winding of below room temperature because technically challenging, the coiling temperature is desirably higher than room temperature.
[0061]
 After hot rolling, carried out once or two or more pickling hot-rolled steel sheets obtained by hot rolling. The pickling, oxides of the generated surface in the hot rolling is eliminated. Pickling contributes to the improvement of plating Improved and plated steel sheet of the chemical conversion of the cold rolled steel sheet.
[0062]
 Between the hot rolling to cold rolling, may be heated hot-rolled steel sheet to 300 ℃ ~ 730 ℃. By the heat treatment (tempering), hot-rolled steel sheet is softened, easily perform cold rolling. The heating temperature is 730 ° C. greater, since the microstructure during heating becomes two phases of ferrite and austenite, despite performed tempering treatment for the purpose of softening, strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet after cooling is it is likely to rise. Therefore, the temperature of the heat treatment (tempering) is set to 730 ° C. or less, preferably 650 ° C. or less. On the other hand, the heating temperature is lower than 300 ° C., is insufficient hot-rolled steel sheet is not sufficiently softened tempering effect. Therefore, the temperature of the heat treatment (tempering) is a 300 ° C. or higher, preferably 400 ° C. or higher. In the case of performing a long-time heat treatment at 600 ° C. or higher, various alloys carbides precipitated in the heat treatment, remelting of alloys carbide becomes difficult in the subsequent continuous annealing, the desired mechanical properties are obtained there is a possibility that the no.
[0063]
 (Cold rolling)
 after pickling is carried out cold rolling the hot-rolled steel sheet. Rolling reduction in cold rolling is 30% to 90%. The rolling reduction is less than 30%, the austenite grains become coarse in annealing, it can not be an effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite in the steel sheet 5μm or less. Therefore, the rolling reduction was 30% or more, desirably 40% or more. On the other hand, the reduction ratio is 90%, operation becomes difficult rolling load is too high. Therefore, the rolling reduction is 90% or less, desirably 70% or less. Rolling reduction in the number of rolling passes and each path is not limited.
[0064]
 (Continuous annealing)
 after cold rolling, performing a continuous annealing of the cold rolled steel sheet obtained by cold rolling. Continuous annealing is carried out, for example, in a continuous annealing line or continuous galvanizing line. Maximum heating temperature in the continuous annealing to 760 ℃ ~ 900 ℃. Is less than the maximum heating temperature is 760 ° C., tempered martensite and the volume fraction of bainite becomes less than 70% in total, it is impossible to achieve both hole expansion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. On the other hand, the maximum heating temperature of 900 ° C. greater, austenite grains are coarsened, or not be an effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite in the steel sheet to 5μm or less, or to unnecessarily increase the cost.
[0065]
 In the continuous annealing, holding 760 ° C. ~ 900 to a temperature range of ° C. 20 seconds or more. The retention time is less than 20 seconds, continuously during annealing can not be sufficiently dissolved iron carbide, it will be less than 70% volume fraction of tempered martensite and bainite in total, hole expansion and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement not only it is impossible to achieve both properties, because residual carbides are coarse, degrading the hole expansion and toughness. From a cost perspective, the retention time is desirably to 1000 seconds or less. May be kept isothermally at the maximum heating temperature, it performs heat ramped, after reaching the maximum heating temperature immediately may initiate cooling.
[0066]
 In the continuous annealing, and the average heating rate from room temperature to a maximum heating temperature of 2 ° C. / sec or more. Is less than the average heating rate is 2 ° C. / sec, strain introduced by the cold rolling is released during heating, austenite grains are coarsened and can not the effective crystal grain size of tempered martensite and bainite in the steel sheet to 5μm or less .
[0067]
 After holding for 20 seconds or more to a temperature region of 760 ° C. ~ 900 ° C. is cooled to 0.99 ° C. ~ 300 ° C., in that case, the average cooling rate from the holding temperature to 300 ° C. and 5 ° C. / sec or more. The cooling stop temperature at this time is 300 ° C. greater than or cooling stop temperature is higher than the martensitic transformation starting temperature, even as the cooling stop temperature is equal to or less than the martensitic transformation start temperature, or not produced sufficient martensite to. Consequently, tempered martensite and the volume fraction of bainite becomes less than 70% in total, it is impossible to achieve both hole expansion and hydrogen embrittlement resistance. The cooling stop temperature is lower than 0.99 ° C., martensite excessively generated, the volume fraction of residual austenite is less than 8%. The average cooling rate from the holding temperature to 300 ° C. of less than 5 ° C. / sec, ferrite is excessively formed during cooling, sufficient martensite is not generated. From a cost standpoint, the average cooling rate is preferably to 300 ° C. / sec or less. Cooling method is not limited, for example, hydrogen gas cooling, roll cooling, it is possible to perform air cooling or water cooling, or any combination thereof. During this cooling, nucleation sites for precipitating fine iron-based carbide in tempered after is introduced into martensite. This cooling is important cooling stop temperature, holding time after stopping is not limited. This is despite tempered martensite and the volume fraction of bainite depends on the cooling stop temperature, the holding time is not dependent.
[0068]
 (Tempering)
 after up to 0.99 ° C. ~ 300 ° C. cooling, reheated to 300 ° C. ~ 500 ° C., held at this temperature range for more than 10 seconds. Hydrogen embrittlement resistance of the generated by the continuous annealing cooling quenching martensite of the low. The reheating to 300 ° C. ~ 500 ° C., martensite tempered returned, the number density of the iron-based carbide 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 a) above. Further, when the reheating, or to generate bainite, since the austenite F C martensite and bainite or diffuse the austenite is stabilized.
[0069]
 In the 500 ° C. greater reheating temperature (holding temperature), martensite is excessively tempered, sufficient tensile strength, for example, 980MPa or more tensile strength. Further, the precipitated iron-based carbide is coarsened may not sufficient hydrogen embrittlement resistance can not be obtained. Furthermore, also contain Si, carbides generated during the austenite, since the austenite is decomposed, the volume fraction of residual austenite is less than 8%, no sufficient formability can not be obtained. With decreasing volume fraction of retained austenite volume fraction of fresh martensite also be more than 10%. If it is less than the temperature of the reheating 300 ° C., tempering is insufficient, the number density of the iron-based carbide 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 does not become) The retention time is less than 10 seconds, the tempering is insufficient, the number density of the iron-based carbide 1.0 × 10 6 (pieces / mm 2 does not become) Further, enrichment of the austenite F C is insufficient, the volume fraction of residual austenite is less than 8%, may not be obtained sufficient formability. From a cost perspective, the retention time is desirably to 1000 seconds or less. 300 ° C. ~ may be kept isothermally at a temperature range of 500 ° C., it may be carried out cooling and heating in this temperature range.
[0070]
 In this way, it is possible to produce a steel sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention.
[0071]
 After tempering, Ni, Cu, Co, or Fe or may be subjected to plating treatment any combination thereof. By performing such plating treatment, thereby improving the chemical conversion treatability and coating properties. Further, the dew point is heated steel sheet in an atmosphere of -50 ° C. ~ 20 ° C., or may be by controlling the form of an oxide formed on the surface of the steel sheet to improve further chemical properties. Temporarily increasing the dew point in the furnace, chemical conversion treatability to adversely affect Si, it oxidizes Mn or the like in steel interior, may improve the chemical conversion treatability thereafter to perform the reduction processing. Further, it may be subjected to electroplating the steel sheet. Tensile strength of the steel sheet, ductility, hole expansion, hydrogen embrittlement resistance and toughness is not affected by the electroplating process. Steel sheet according to the present embodiment is also suitable as a material for electroplating.
[0072]
 It may also be carried out galvanizing treatment to the steel sheet. When performing galvanizing treatment, the continuous annealing and tempering treatment of the in a continuous galvanizing line, subsequently, the steel sheet is immersed in a plating bath temperature of the steel sheet as 400 ℃ ~ 500 ℃. The temperature of the steel sheet is less than 400 ° C., heat removal of the plating bath during immersion intrusion is large, part of the molten zinc to solidify, there is the appearance of the plating may be impaired. On the other hand, the temperature of the steel sheet at the 500 ° C. greater, there is a fear that operation troubles with increasing temperature of the plating bath may occur. If the temperature is lower than 400 ° C. of the steel sheet after the tempering process, it may be heated to 400 ° C. ~ 500 ° C. prior to immersion. Plating bath can be a pure zinc plating bath, in addition to Fe zinc, Al, Mg, Mn, Si, or Cr or may contain any combination thereof.
[0073]
 In this way, it is possible to obtain a galvanized steel sheet having a plating layer mainly composed of Zn. Fe content of the plating layer of the galvanized steel sheet is generally less than 7%.
[0074]
 It may be carried out alloying treatment with respect to hot-dip galvanized steel sheet. Temperature of the alloying process to 450 ℃ ~ 550 ℃. Is lower than the temperature of the alloying treatment is 450 ° C., slow progress of alloying, the productivity is low. The temperature of alloying is 550 ° C. greater than or longer austenite provides excellent moldability by decomposing, sufficient tensile strength tempered martensite is excessively softened to may become impossible to obtain.
[0075]
 In this way, it is possible to obtain a galvannealed steel sheet. Fe content of the coating layer of the galvannealed steel sheet is generally at least 7%. The melting point of the coating layer of the galvannealed steel sheet is higher than the melting point of the plating layer of the galvanized steel sheet, galvannealed steel sheet is excellent in spot weldability.
[0076]
 In plating treatment, Sendzimir method, the total reduction furnace method may employ any of the flux method. The Sendzimir method, degreased pickled, heated in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, H 2 and N 2 after annealing at reducing atmosphere containing, cooled to the plating bath temperature near, is immersed in the plating bath. The total reduction furnace method, to adjust the atmosphere during annealing, first, after oxidizing the surface of the steel sheet is dipped in a plating bath after the cleaning before plating by subsequent reduction. The flux method, was degreased pickled steel sheet by performing a flux treatment using such ammonium chloride, are immersed in the plating bath.
[0077]
 After tempering, after plating or after alloying treatment may be carried out skin pass rolling. Reduction ratio of the skin pass rolling is 1.0% or less. The reduction rate of 1.0 percent, the volume fraction of residual austenite is significantly lowered during skin pass rolling. The reduction ratio is less than 0.1%, less effect of the skin pass rolling, control is also difficult. Skin pass rolling may be performed in-line in a continuous annealing line, after completion of the continuous annealing in the continuous annealing line may be performed off-line. Skin pass rolling may be performed in one, so that the total rolling reduction of 1.0% or less, may be divided into a plurality of times.
