- the present invention mainly relates to steel plates used for brake discs such as motorcycles and bicycles such as bicycles, and is excellent in corrosion resistance and hardened (corrosion resistance).
- Low carbon martensitic chromium-containing steel plate low carbon martensitic
- brake disc using the steel plate about.
- Disc brakes are often used as brake systems for motorcycles such as motorcycles and bicycles.
- the disc brake is attached to a tire and sandwiches a brake disc that rotates together with the tire with brake pads, and brakes with friction between the brake disc and the brake pad.
- the brake disk is repeatedly heated to a temperature range of 500 ° C. or more due to the friction, the brake disk is not softened against the heat generated during braking, but is deformed (change of shape). ) And galling, that is, high temper softening resistance is required.
- an appropriate range of hardness in a brake disc of a motorcycle disc brake is usually about 30 to 40 HRC on HRC (Rockwell hardness scale C), and a more preferable range is 32 to It is required to maintain the hardness within this proper range even after receiving heat during repeated braking.
- HRC Rockwell hardness scale C
- a more preferable range is 32 to It is required to maintain the hardness within this proper range even after receiving heat during repeated braking.
- the hardness is lower than this proper range, there is a concern that the braking force will decrease due to deformation or wear of the brake disc or the brake disc will crack, and the hardness is higher than this proper range.
- various problems such as a reduction in braking force and a decrease in pad life due to a decrease in brake squeal and a friction coefficient (coefficient of friction) are likely to occur.
- the brake disk is also required to have corrosion resistance (rust resistance) in terms of appearance and ensuring braking force.
- corrosion resistance rust resistance
- martensitic stainless steel sheets mainly containing 12 to 13% Cr are used as the material for the brake disc.
- the brake disk has an opening or groove (cooling capability) against heat generation during braking, discharge of wear debris, weight saving, design, and the like. many) are provided. Since these holes and grooves are formed by punching work or cutting work, it is required that the material used for processing be soft. Therefore, when manufacturing brake discs from steel plates, the steel plates are annealed to have a hardness of 95 HRB or less in HRB (Rockwell hardness B scale) and processed into a disk shape at 900 to 1100 ° C. A quenching process is performed to cool after holding for about 1 to 10 minutes to bring the hardness to an appropriate range, and further, a grind and a corrosion-proof process are applied to obtain an end product. As the steel plate, a steel plate is used that has a small amount of temper softening and can maintain a hardness of 30 HRC or higher even when the brake disc is held at 500 ° C. for 60 minutes.
- Patent Documents 1 to 4 have the effects of improving hardenability, obtaining stable quenching hardness, and increasing temper softening resistance, such as C, N, Nb, V, Cu, Ti, Mo, and B.
- a high heat-resisting steel sheet having a hardness of 30 HRC or more is disclosed even for a tempering treatment at a temperature exceeding 500 ° C. by adding an element.
- the high heat-resistant steel sheet disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 4 has relatively excellent heat resistance, and evaluation of heat resistance when held at 500 to 550 ° C. for about 60 minutes (heat resistance evaluation). ) Gives good results. However, when the temperature was maintained for a longer time (for example, about 240 minutes), a sharp decrease in hardness and / or corrosion resistance was confirmed. In other words, it has been found that these conventional high-heat-resistant steel plates have insufficient corrosion resistance and heat stability (stability of heat resistance) when used for a long time (for example, about 240 minutes).
- the present invention has been made in view of the above situation, and an object of the present invention is to provide a steel sheet having stable corrosion resistance and heat stability even when used as a brake disc material for a long time (for example, about 240 minutes). To do. Specifically, it has a hardenability in which the hardness after quenching falls within an appropriate range (32 to 40 HRC JIS Z 2245), and a 48 hour salt spray test regarding corrosion resistance after quenching and tempering. (SST test) An object is to provide a steel plate having 4 or less rusting points after a salt spray test, and a brake disk using the steel plate. Furthermore, the hardness after quenching is 32 to 40 HRC, the hardness after tempering at 550 ° C.
- ⁇ 60 minutes is 30 to 40 HRC, and the hardness after tempering at 550 ° C. ⁇ 240 minutes.

- a brake disc using the steel plate is 4 or less.
- the present inventors have conducted detailed studies on hardenability, heat resistance (specifically, temper softening resistance) and corrosion resistance of steel sheets having various compositions.
- excessive elements such as Nb, Ti, V, and Mo are included for the purpose of improving heat resistance
- these elements are ferrite forming elements (ferrite formation elements), and therefore, during the quenching process. It has been found that a large amount of ferrite (ferrite phase) is formed, which causes a decrease in hardness after quenching and tempering.
- the strengthening element if the content of Ni, Mn, etc., which are austenite forming elements, is increased, the formation of the ferrite phase can be suppressed, but further after tempering. It has been found that it is difficult to maintain the hardness for a long time, and it is sometimes necessary to replace the brake disk. However, by containing appropriate amounts of Nb, N and B, the effect of maintaining the hardness after tempering for a long time (for example, about 240 minutes) was confirmed, and it was also confirmed that the effect of improving the corrosion resistance after tempering was high. .
- the present inventors further examined a steel composition that exhibits high hardness and excellent corrosion resistance even when the hardness after quenching and after tempering is within the proper range described above and kept at the tempering temperature for a long time.
- the desired properties can be obtained by containing a proper amount of Nb, N and B in combination, and further by making the steel composition satisfying a predetermined relational expression. It was found that it can be obtained.
- the summary structure is as follows. (1) In mass%, C: 0.02% or more and less than 0.10%, Si: 0.6% or less, Mn: more than 0.5% and 2.0% or less, P: 0.06% or less, S: 0.01% or less, Al: 0.05% or less, Cr: 11.0% to 13.5%, Ni: 0.01% or more and 0.30% or less, Nb: 0.10% or more and 0.60% or less, N: 0.03% or more and less than 0.10% and B: more than 0.0010% and 0.0060% or less, further satisfy the following formulas (1) to (3), the balance being Fe and inevitable
- Co 0.01% or more and 0.10% or less
- Cu 0.01% or more and 0.30% or less
- V 0.01% or more and less than 0.15%
- Mo 0.01% or more and 0.10% or less
- Ti 0.01% or more and 0.10% or less
- Zr 0.01% or more and 0.10% or less
- a steel plate for a brake disc comprising at least one selected from Ta: 0.01% to 0.10% and W: 0.01% to 0.10%.
- the present invention it is possible to provide a low-carbon martensitic chromium-containing steel sheet that has excellent corrosion resistance, has high temper softening resistance at 550 ° C., and has little decrease in hardness. Therefore, when the steel plate of the present invention is used as a brake disc for motorcycles, bicycles and other motorcycles, it has excellent corrosion resistance and is less susceptible to deformation of the disc due to heat generated during braking. In addition, braking stability can be maintained for a long time.
- the unit of the element content in the steel sheet is “mass%”, but hereinafter, it is simply indicated by “%” unless otherwise specified.
- C 0.02% or more and less than 0.10% C forms a solid solution or precipitate (carbide, carbonitride, or a mixture thereof), and is a steel sheet after quenching and tempering. It is a major element that greatly affects hardness. In order to ensure appropriate hardness after quenching, it is necessary to contain 0.02% or more. However, when the content is 0.10% or more, the corrosion resistance is remarkably lowered.
- the C content is set to 0.02% or more and less than 0.10%. In addition, it is preferable to set it as 0.04% or more from a heat resistant viewpoint, and 0.08% or less from a rust-resistant viewpoint. Furthermore, in order to ensure better corrosion resistance, the content is preferably 0.06% or less.
- Si 0.6% or less Si is an element that acts as a deoxidizing agent. However, if its content exceeds 0.6%, a sufficient martensitic phase is not generated during the quenching process, resulting in a decrease in hardness after quenching of the steel sheet. Moreover, since it will also lead to the fall of toughness if it contains excessively, it defines to 0.6% or less. In addition, it is preferable to contain 0.05% or more from a viewpoint of a deoxidation effect
- Mn more than 0.5% and not more than 2.0%
- Mn is an element that suppresses the formation of a ferrite phase at a high temperature. Therefore, a wide temperature range of 900 to 1300 ° C. is a stable austenite zone, and it is an element useful for ensuring sufficient hardenability. In order to obtain such an effect, it exceeds 0.5%. It is necessary to contain. However, if its content exceeds 2.0%, the workability and corrosion resistance are remarkably lowered, so the Mn content is made 0.5% and 2.0% or less. From the viewpoint of hardenability, the content is preferably more than 1.0%, and more preferably 1.5% or more.
- Al 0.05% or less
- Al is an element that acts as a deoxidizing agent as in Si. However, if it is excessively contained, hard inclusions and precipitates increase, resulting in surface defects. Therefore, the content is made 0.05% or less.
- Si when contained as a deoxidizer, it is preferable to reduce the Al content in order to suppress an increase in inclusions and precipitates. For example, if Si is 0.05% or more, Al is preferably 0.03% or less, and if Si is 0.10% or more, Al is preferably 0.01% or less.
- Cr 11.0% or more and 13.5% or less Cr is a main element for improving the corrosion resistance of the steel sheet, and it is necessary to contain 11.0% or more for ensuring sufficient corrosion resistance as a brake disk material. is there. However, if the content exceeds 13.5%, a large amount of ⁇ ferrite phase is generated after the quenching treatment, and appropriate hardness cannot be obtained, and workability and toughness are also lowered. Therefore, the Cr content is 11.0% or more and 13.5% or less. The content is preferably 11.5% or more from the viewpoint of corrosion resistance, and the content is preferably less than 13.0% from the viewpoint of workability.
- Ni 0.01% or more and 0.30% or less Ni improves the hardenability and corrosion resistance of the steel sheet by setting its content to 0.01% or more. However, if the content exceeds 0.30%, the diffusion velocity of Cr is greatly reduced, so that a long time heat treatment is applied to softening annealing when the steel plate is processed into a brake disk shape. Therefore, it may cause defects due to a decrease in production efficiency and an increase in scale. Moreover, since Ni is an expensive element, it leads to an increase in material cost. Therefore, the Ni content is set to 0.30% or less. In the present invention, the content of Ni may be 0.1% or less because the formation of the ⁇ ferrite phase is suppressed by adjusting the content of other elements to improve the corrosion resistance.
- Nb 0.10% or more and 0.60% or less Nb, like N and B described later, is an extremely important element in the present invention. Nb forms precipitates (referring to nitrides, carbides, carbonitrides, or a mixture of two or more of these) with C and N to delay the recovery of dislocation, thereby improving the heat resistance of the steel sheet. It is an element to improve. Heat resistance targeted by the present invention (hardness after tempering treatment at 550 ° C. ⁇ 60 minutes: 30 to 40 HRC, hardness after tempering treatment at 550 ° C. ⁇ 240 minutes: 28 In order to ensure (-40 HRC), it is necessary to contain 0.10% or more of Nb.
- the Nb content is set to 0.10% or more and 0.60% or less.
- a more preferable content is 0.10% or more and 0.40% or less.
- a more preferable content is 0.16% or more and 0.30% or less.
- N 0.03% or more and less than 0.10%
- N is an extremely important element in the present invention.
- N is an element necessary for securing appropriate hardness to the steel sheet after quenching and tempering.
- it has an effect of suppressing precipitation of coarse C precipitates (carbide, carbonitride, or a mixture thereof), and precipitates (nitride and carbonitride, or a mixture thereof) rather than C. Since the precipitates are still fine, the combined addition of Nb and B has a high effect of suppressing temper softening for a long time. Further, the effect of improving the corrosion resistance is great, and it is effective to contain N at 0.03% or more in order to obtain these effects.
- the N content is 0.03% or more and less than 0.10%.
- B More than 0.0010% and 0.0060% or less B, like Nb and N, is an extremely important element in the present invention. B tends to be unevenly distributed in the crystal grain boundary, granulates the structure, and coarse precipitates at the grain boundary (in particular, precipitates formed by C and / or N), Among them, in order to suppress the formation of the above-mentioned carbide, nitride, carbonitride, or a mixture of two or more thereof), the combined addition of Nb and N improves the heat resistance of the steel sheet, and is long for use in high-temperature environments. It is an effective element for achieving a long life. In order to acquire these effects, it is necessary to contain B exceeding 0.0010%.
- the content of B exceeds 0.0010 and is 0.0060% or less.
- the content is preferably set to 0.0016% or more. More preferably, it is 0.0020% or more.

- REM rare earth elements
- the present invention it is possible to impart desired hardenability, heat resistance and corrosion resistance to the steel sheet by limiting the composition of the steel sheet to the above component composition and the relational expression. Therefore, according to the present invention, by performing ordinary quenching treatment, it has excellent heat resistance and corrosion resistance, and 75% or more of the structure after quenching is a martensite phase, and the hardness after quenching is appropriate. A steel plate suitable for a brake disk in the range (32 to 40 HRC) can be obtained. Moreover, since the raw material before quenching is punched, it needs to be softened to some extent.
- the annealing method for softening will be described later, if the hardness of the material before quenching exceeds 95 HRB, the material is hard and thus cracks easily during punching. On the other hand, if the material is softened to less than 75 HRB, the material tends to sag at the time of punching. Therefore, the good hardness of the material before quenching is 75 to 95 HRB. For the same reason, 80 to 90 HRB is a more preferable range.
- the manufacturing method of a steel plate does not need to be specifically limited, A well-known method can be used.
- a steel having the above composition is melted in a steel converter or an electric furnace, refined by VOD (Vacuum Oxygen Decarburization) or AOD (Argon Oxygen Decarburization), and then continuously cast in t. cast) to form a steel ingot.
- hot rolling is performed by heating at 1050 to 1250 ° C. to obtain a hot-rolled steel sheet having a predetermined thickness.
- the steel sheet is softened and annealed to make the steel sheet have a hardness of 75 to 95 HRB, preferably 80 to 90 HRB.
- softening annealing conditions include, for example, holding at 650 to 880 ° C. for 4 hours or more in a box-type annealing furnace, continuous annealing furnace, etc., and then gradually cooling.
- the martensite phase is sufficiently tempered, a ferrite phase is generated, and carbonitrides and the like are coarsened and softened. Further, descaling by hot leveling, grinding, pickling or the like is performed as necessary.
- the structure of the steel sheet before quenching is formed of a tempered martensite phase, a ferrite phase, a retained austenite phase, a carbonitride, and the like. Since the hardness of each phase changes during the tempering process, the hardness of the steel plate is not uniquely defined from the phase fraction, but at least if the ferrite phase is 75% or more in area ratio, Even if the total of the phases contains less than 25% by area ratio, good hardness can be obtained as a steel plate before quenching. In addition, observation of the structure
- tissue before hardening can be measured based on the measuring method of the area ratio of the martensite of the below-mentioned hardenability test.
- the brake disk steel sheet is subjected to punching work or cutting work to be processed into a brake disk shape, and then subjected to a quenching process so that the hardness falls within an appropriate range of 32 to 40 HRC.
- the quenching treatment is performed by heating to 900 to 1300 ° C. and holding at the highest temperature for about 1 second to 30 minutes, and then cooling at a cooling rate higher than air cooling, as is generally practiced. More preferably, the heating temperature is 900 to 1100 ° C., and the holding time is within 10 minutes.
- the method of quenching is not particularly limited, and is a method of inserting into an atmospheric furnace or atmosphere furnace having a predetermined temperature, or a radio-frequency heating furnace that raises the temperature in a short time.
- a general method such as a method using) can be used.
- the cooling method as long as the desired hardness / structure can be obtained after quenching, regardless of the method, water cooling, oil cooling, gas cooling, air cooling, or A method using a die press (press quenching) that combines shape correction and cooling can be used.
- the following evaluation test was performed using the hot-rolled annealed plate obtained as described above.

The sample after the quenching treatment was polished to completely remove the scale on the surface, and the hardness of the C scale was measured using a Rockwell hardness meter in accordance with the JIS Z 2245 standard for the sample surface.
- the measured value was 32 to 40 HRC, it was evaluated that the hardness after quenching was good. An extremely good range is 33 to 38 HRC.
- the amount of martensite (area ratio) (%) was measured for the sample after the quenching treatment. The amount of martensite (area ratio) was measured by image analysis after polishing the sample cross section and corroding with a Murakami test reagent. Five samples were measured for one sample, and the average value was defined as the martensite amount (area ratio) of the sample.

まず、本発明において所望の焼入性、耐熱性および耐食性を得るための成分組成の限定理由について説明する。なお、鋼板中の元素の含有量の単位は何れも「質量%」であるが、以下、特に断らない限り、単に「%」で示す。
C:0.02%以上0.10%未満
Cは、固溶(solid solution)または析出物(炭化物、炭窒化物、あるいは、これらの混合物)を形成して、焼入れ後・焼戻し後の鋼板の硬さを大きく左右する主要な元素である。焼入れ後に適正な硬さを確保する上では0.02%以上含有することが必要である。しかし、その含有量が0.10%以上であると、耐食性が著しく低下する。また、焼戻し中の上記Cの析出物の成長が著しく速まり、粗大な上記Cの析出物が多数形成し易くなるため、耐熱寿命(heat life)(高温環境(high−temperature environment)使用下における長寿命化)や耐食性が著しく低下する。以上の理由によりCの含有量を0.02%以上0.10%未満とする。なお、耐熱性の観点からは0.04%以上、耐錆性の観点からは0.08%以下とすることが好ましい。更に、より良好な耐食性を確保するためには0.06%以下とすることが好ましい。
Siは、脱酸剤(deoxidizing agent)として作用する元素である。しかし、その含有量が0.6%を超えると焼入れ処理時に十分なマルテンサイト相(martensitic phase)が生成せず、鋼板の焼入れ後の硬さ低下を招く。また、過剰に含有すると靱性(toughness)の低下にもつながるため、0.6%以下に規定する。なお、脱酸作用の観点からは0.05%以上含有することが好ましい。
Mnは、高温でのフェライト相の生成を抑制する元素である。そのため、900~1300℃の広い温度範囲を安定オーステナイト域(stable austenite zone)とし、十分な焼入性を確保する上で有用な元素であり、係る効果を得るためには0.5%を超えて含有する必要がある。しかし、その含有量が2.0%を超えると、加工性(formability)や耐食性が著しく低下するため、Mnの含有量を0.5%超え2.0%以下とする。なお、焼入性の観点からはその含有量を1.0%超えとすることが好ましく、更に1.5%以上とすることが好ましい。
Alは、Siと同様に脱酸剤として作用する元素であるが、過剰に含有すると硬質の介在物(hard inclusion)や析出物が増加して表面疵(surface flaw)等の欠陥の原因となるため、その含有量を0.05%以下とする。
なお、脱酸剤としてSiを共に含有する場合には、介在物や析出物の増加を抑えるためにAlの含有量を低減することが好ましい。例えば、Siが0.05%以上であればAlを0.03%以下とすることが好ましく、Siが0.10%以上であればAlを0.01%以下とすることが好ましい。
Crは、鋼板の耐食性を向上させる主要な元素であり、ブレーキディスク素材として十分な耐食性を確保する上で11.0%以上含有することが必要である。しかし、その含有量が13.5%を超えると焼入れ処理後にδフェライト相が多く生成して適正な硬さが得られなくなる上、加工性や靱性も低下する。よって、Crの含有量を11.0%以上13.5%以下とする。なお、耐食性の観点からはその含有量を11.5%以上とすることが好ましく、加工性の観点からはその含有量を13.0%未満とすることが好ましい。
Niは、その含有量を0.01%以上とすることにより鋼板の焼入性や耐食性を向上させる。
しかし、0.30%を超えて含有するとCrの拡散速度(diffusion velocity)が大きく低下するため、鋼板をブレーキディスク形状に加工する際の軟化焼鈍(softening annealing)に長時間の熱処理(heat treatment)を要し、生産効率(production efficiency)の低下やスケール(scale)増加に伴う欠陥発生の原因になる。また、Niは高価な元素であるため、素材コストの増加につながる。よって、Niの含有量を0.30%以下とする。なお、本発明においては、他の元素含有量を調整することによりδフェライト相の生成を抑えて耐食性の向上を図っているため、Niの含有量は0.1%以下としてもよい。
Nbは、後述するNとBと同様に、本発明に極めて重要な元素である。Nbは、CやNと析出物(窒化物、炭化物、炭窒化物、あるいは、これら2種以上の混合物を言う)を形成して転位(dislocation)の回復を遅らせることにより、鋼板の耐熱性を向上させる元素である。本発明が目的とする耐熱性(550℃×60分で焼戻し処理(tempering treatment)を施した後の硬さ:30~40HRC、550℃×240分で焼戻し処理を施した後の硬さ:28~40HRC)を確保するためにはNbを0.10%以上含有する必要がある。しかし、その含有量が0.60%を超えると、上記CやNとの析出物の形成が促進され、短時間でのこれら析出物の粗大化を招く。その結果、特に鋼板中の固溶C量が減少し、却って鋼板の焼入れ後の硬さを低下させたり、焼戻し処理後の硬さ低下を早める原因となる。よって、Nbの含有量を0.10%以上0.60%以下とする。なお、より好ましい含有量は0.10%以上0.40%以下である。さらに好ましい含有量は0.16%以上0.30%以下である。
Nは、Nbと同様に、本発明に極めて重要な元素である。Nは、Cと同様に焼入れ後、焼戻し後の鋼板に適正な硬さを確保する上で必要な元素である。また、粗大なCの析出物(炭化物、炭窒化物、あるいは、これらの混合物)の析出を抑制する効果を有すると共に、Cよりも析出物(窒化物と炭窒化物、あるいは、これらの混合物)を形成し難く、その析出物も微細のままであるため、NbおよびBの複合添加により、焼戻し軟化を長時間にわたり抑制する効果が高い。更に、耐食性向上効果も大きく、これらの効果を得るためにはNを0.03%以上含有することが有効である。しかし、その含有量が0.10%以上となると、熱間延性や靱性の著しい低下をもたらすため、Nの含有量を0.03%以上0.10%未満とする。なお、安定した耐熱性・耐食性を得るためには、Nを0.04%以上含有することが好ましい。さらに好ましくは、0.045%以上である。
Bは、NbおよびNと同様に、本発明に極めて重要な元素である。Bは、結晶粒界(crystal grain boundary)に偏在し易く、組織を整粒化(granulating)すると共に、粒界での粗大な析出物(特に、Cおよび/またはNにより形成された析出物、中でも、前述した炭化物、窒化物、炭窒化物あるいは、これら2種以上の混合物)の生成を抑制するため、NbおよびNの複合添加により、鋼板の耐熱性が向上し、高温環境使用下における長寿命化を図る上で有効な元素である。これらの効果を得るためにはBを0.0010%を超えて含有する必要がある。しかし、その含有量が0.0060%を超えると、BがFeやCrと化合物を形成することにより、鋳造性や熱間延性が著しく低下し、また、高温環境使用下における長寿命化も図れなくなる。よって、Bの含有量を0.0010超え、0.0060%以下とする。なお、Bは鋼中で偏在し易いため、上記効果を鋼板全体に亘り安定的に得るためには、その含有量を0.0016%以上とすることが好ましい。さらに好ましくは、0.0020%以上である。
図6に、(11.3~13.1)%Cr−(0.0030~0.0071)%C−(0.07~0.30)%Si−(0.85~1.84)%Mn−(0.001~0.016)%Al−(0.02~0.29)%Ni−Nb−N−B−(Cu,Zr,Mo,V,Ti,Co,Ta,W)の成分系の鋼および(1)式、(2)式および(3)式を満足する鋼(表1および表2の鋼No.:1~12,17,18,27,29~32)において、NbおよびNの2元素を適正範囲に複合添加した場合と、NbおよびNの2元素の内、1種以上が適正範囲に添加されていない場合の、550℃で240分保持する焼戻し後の硬さにおよぼすBの影響を示す。
Nb,NおよびBの3元素を適正範囲に複合添加した場合は、550℃で240分経過しても硬さが28HRC以上確保されているのに対して、Nb,NおよびBの3元素の内、1種でも適正範囲に添加されていない場合には、550℃で240分経過するといずれも27HRC以下に低下しているのが分かる。
以上のことから、Nb,NおよびBの3元素を適正範囲に複合含有した場合には、550℃で240分保持しても硬さが28HRC以上確保されるという従来にない予期せぬ格段の効果が得られた。
Pは、0.01%以上含有すると耐食性の向上に寄与するが、0.06%を超えて含有すると熱間延性や靱性の低下を招き、鋼板の製造を困難にする。よって、Pの含有量を0.06%以下とする。なお、好ましくは0.01%以上0.04%以下とする。
Sは、0.0005%以上含有すると鋼板の打ち抜き加工性の向上に寄与するが、0.01%を超えて含有すると、熱間延性や耐食性を著しく低下させる。よって、Sの含有量を0.01%以下とする。また、好ましくは0.0005%以上、0.006%以下である。更に好ましくは0.004%以下である。

C−12(Nb/93+Ti/48+Zr/91+V/51+Mo/96+Ta/181+W/184)≦0.045・・・・・(3)
ただし、上記(1)~(3)式中の各元素記号は、鋼板に含有される各元素の質量%を表す。
図1は、Cr−0.06%C−0.1%Si−1.6%Mn−0.002%Al−0.05%Ni−0.2%Nb−0.04%N−0.003%B鋼において、Cr量を11.8~13.4%に変化させた鋼板に対して、1050℃で5分間の焼入れ処理を行った後の鋼中でのマルテンサイト量を測定した結果を示したものである。なお、図1の横軸は、上記(1)式の左辺の値を示す。図1に示すように(1)式の左辺の値を85以上とすることで、鋼板の焼入れ後における鋼板組織を面積率で75%以上のマルテンサイト相とすることができる。なお、マルテンサイト相以外の組織として、オーステナイト相およびフェライト相の1種以上を合計で25%未満含んでも良い。
更に、図2は、図1に示す鋼板に関し、焼入れ後および550℃で焼戻し処理後の硬さを示したものである。図2に示すように、鋼板の焼入れ後における鋼板組織の75%以上をマルテンサイト相として焼入れ後の硬さ(図2の○印)を32~40HRCの適正範囲とし、更には焼入れ後に550℃×60分で焼戻し処理を施した後の硬さ(図2の▲印)を30~40HRCに維持することが可能となる。また、図1に示すように上記(1)式の左辺の値が大きいほど、マルテンサイト相の量も多くなると共に、焼戻しされ難いマルテンサイト相が得られ、鋼板の焼入れ後における鋼板組織を面積率で75%以上のマルテンサイト相とすることで550℃×240分で焼戻し処理を施した後の硬さ(図2の■印)を28~40HRCに維持することが可能となる。
なお、図2からマルテンサイト量は、80%以上が好ましく、さらに90%以上がより好ましいので、図1から上記(1)式の左辺の値はそれぞれ88以上であることが好ましく、93以上であることがより好ましい。ただし、この値が大きすぎると、焼入れ前の鋼板の硬さを打ち抜き加工に適した硬さ範囲(75~95HRB)とすることが困難になるため、上記(1)式の左辺の値は100以下であることが好ましい。
Co:0.01%以上0.10%以下
Coは、Niと同様に鋼板の焼入性を高めたり、炭窒化物等の析出を抑制して焼戻し軟化抵抗を高める効果を有し、この効果を得るには0.01%以上含有することが好ましい。しかし、0.10%を超えて含有しても、焼入れ前の硬さが高くなるため、ブレーキディスク形状に形成する際の加工が困難になる。また、Coは非常に高価な元素であり素材コストの増加に繋がるため、その含有量を0.10%以下とする。
Cuは、鋼板の耐食性を向上する効果、並びに、500~600℃の焼戻し温度で微細に析出して焼戻し軟化抵抗を高める効果を有する。この効果を得るためには0.01%以上の含有が好ましいが、Cuを過剰に含有すると熱間延性が低下し、熱間圧延時に割れやヘゲ(scab)の原因となる。また、ブレーキディスク形状に加工する前の熱延鋼板の軟質化焼鈍処理に要する時間が長くなるため生産効率が低下し、更には焼戻し後の硬さ超過をも招く。よって、Cuの含有量を0.30%以下とする。
V、Mo、Ti、Zr、TaおよびWは、いずれも鋼板の耐熱性を高める元素である。この効果を得るためには0.01%以上の含有が好ましいが、炭窒化物等を形成するこれらの元素を過剰に含有すると、炭窒化物等の著しい硬質化あるいは軟質化を招き、焼入れ後、焼戻し後の鋼板の硬さが適正範囲から外れる原因となる。よって、Mo、Ti、Zr、TaおよびWの含有量を各々0.10%以下、Vの含有量を0.15%未満とする。また、焼入れ後、焼戻し後の鋼板の硬さを適正範囲に収めるには、これらの元素の合計含有量を0.30%以下とすることが好ましい。更に、550℃を超える温度域において安定した耐熱性を確保する上では、これらの元素の合計含有量を0.11%以上とすることが好ましい。
また、焼入れ前の素材には打ち抜き加工を施すため、ある程度軟質化する必要がある。軟質化のための焼鈍方法については後述するが、焼入れ前素材の硬さが95HRBを超えると硬質なため打ち抜き時に、素材に割れが生じやすくなる。一方、75HRB未満にまで軟質化すると、打ち抜き時に素材にダレが生じやすくなる。よって、焼入れ前の素材の良好な硬さは75~95HRBである。同様の理由で、80~90HRBがより好ましい範囲である。
鋼板の製造方法は特に限定する必要はなく、公知の方法を用いることができる。例えば、上記成分組成を有する鋼を、転炉(steel converter)や電気炉(electric furnace)で溶製し、VOD(Vacuum Oxygen Decarburization)やAOD(Argon Oxygen Decarburization)で精錬した後、連続鋳造(continuous casting)等で鋼塊とする。さらに、1050~1250℃で加熱して熱間圧延を行い、所定の板厚の熱延鋼板とする。次いで、ブレーキディスク形状への加工を容易にすることを目的として、鋼板に軟化焼鈍を施し、鋼板の硬さを75~95HRB、好ましくは80~90HRBにする。軟化焼鈍条件としては、例えば箱型焼鈍炉・連続焼鈍炉等により650~880℃で4時間以上保持した後、徐冷する等が挙げられる。これにより、マルテンサイト相は十分焼き戻され、フェライト相が生成し、炭窒化物等が粗大化するため軟質化する。
また、必要に応じてレベラー(leveler)などによる形状矯正(hot leveling)、研削(grinding)や酸洗(pickling)などによるスケール除去(descaling)を行う。更に、冷間圧延を施した後、焼鈍、スケール除去等を行ってもよい。さらに必要に応じてスキンパス圧延(skin pass rolling)などの形状矯正を行ってもよい。
以上のようにして、ブレーキディスク用鋼板を得る。
焼入れ前の鋼板の組織は、焼戻しマルテンサイト相、フェライト相、残留オーステナイト相および炭窒化物等などで形成される。各相の硬さは焼き戻し過程中に変化していくため、相分率から一義的に鋼板の硬さは規定されないが、少なくとも、フェライト相が面積率で75%以上であれば、他の相の合計が面積率で25%未満含んでいても焼入れ前の鋼板として良好な硬さが得られる。
なお、焼入れ前の組織の観察は、後述の焼入れ性試験のマルテンサイトの面積率の測定方法に準拠して測定できる。
上記ブレーキディスク用鋼板に、打ち抜き加工(punching work)や切削加工(cutting work)を施してブレーキディスク形状に加工した後、焼入れ処理を施し、硬さを32~40HRCの適正範囲内に収める。焼入れ処理は、一般的に実施されているように、900~1300℃に加熱し、その最高到達温度で1秒~30分程度保持した後、空冷以上の冷却速度で冷却することにより行う。なお、上記加熱温度を900~1100℃とし、保持時間(holding time)を10分以内とすることがより好ましい。焼入れの方法についても特に限定する必要はなく、所定温度の大気炉(atmosphere furnace)や雰囲気炉(atmosphere furnace)に挿入する方法、あるいは、短時間で昇温する高周波加熱炉(radio−frequency heating furnace)を用いる方法など一般的な方法を用いることができる。冷却方法についても焼入れ後に所望の硬さ・組織が得られるのであれば方法を問わず、水冷(water cooling)、油冷(oil cooling)、ガス冷却(gas cooling)、空冷(air cooling)、あるいは形状矯正と冷却を兼ねた金型プレス(die press)(プレス焼入れ(press quenching))による方法などを用いることができる。
(1)焼入れ性試験(hardenability test)
上記熱延焼鈍板から、20~30mmの小片を切り出し、表2に示す条件で焼入れ処理を行い、サンプルNo.1~32の焼入れ試料を作製した。ここで、焼入れ処理条件は、加熱温度を950~1200℃とし、各々のサンプルについて設定された加熱温度±10℃での保持時間を1~600秒とし、その後空冷する条件とした。焼入れ処理後の試料を研磨して表面のスケールを完全に除去した後、試料表面についてJIS Z 2245の規定に準拠し、ロックウェル硬度計を用いてCスケールの硬さ測定を行った。測定値が32~40HRCであれば、焼入れ処理後の硬さが良好であるものと評価した。なお、極めて良好な範囲は33~38HRCである。また、上記焼入れ処理後の試料について、マルテンサイト量(面積率)(%)を測定した。マルテンサイト量(面積率)の測定は、試料断面を研磨、村上試薬(murakami test reagent)で腐食した後、画像解析(imaging analysis)により行った。1サンプルについて5点測定を行い、平均値をそのサンプルのマルテンサイト量(面積率)とした。
上記の焼入れ試料について、更に表2に示す条件で焼戻し処理を行い、サンプルNo.1~32の焼戻し試料を作製した。焼戻し条件は、加熱温度を550℃とし、この加熱温度における保持時間を60分および240分とし、その後空冷する条件とした。焼戻し処理後の試料を研磨して表面のスケールを完全に除去した後、試料表面について上記(1)の焼入れ性試験と同様にしてロックウェル硬さ測定を行った。60分保持後の試料では、測定値が30~40HRCであれば、耐熱性が良好であるものと評価した。また、240分保持後の試料では、測定値が28~40HRCであれば、耐熱性が良好であるものと評価した。なお、極めて良好な範囲は30~38HRCである。
上記熱延焼鈍板から、70×120mmの試料を採取し、表2に示す条件で焼入れ処理を行った後の試料、および、焼入れ処理に続き表2に示す条件で焼戻し処理を行った後の試料について、表面を#600の研磨紙で湿式研磨し、JIS Z 2371の規定に準拠した条件で48時間の塩水噴霧試験(SST試験)を行った。各試料について、幅が0.5mm以上の発錆点の数を目視で測定し、発錆点0~1個を「○(good)」、2~4個を「△(pass)」、5個以上を「×(bad)」として評価した。
