- the chemical composition of the steel sheet according to this embodiment can be determined by the following method.
- the chemical composition of the steel sheet described above may be measured by a general chemical composition. For example, it may be measured using ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry).

- the upper limit of the total area of bainite, martensite, and retained austenite with respect to the total area of the remaining structure may be 100 area %. Since bainite is softer than martensite, in the steel plate according to the present embodiment, which places more importance on ductility than strength, it is preferable to control so that bainite is formed instead of martensite.

- bainite is 10 area% or more, preferably 15 area% or more. Martensite is, for example, 10 area% or less, preferably 5 area% or less.
- Retained austenite is, for example, 5 area% or less.

上述した鋼板の化学組成は、一般的な化学組成によって測定すればよい。例えば、ICP-AES(Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry)を用いて測定すればよい。また、CおよびSは燃焼-赤外線吸収法を用い、Nは不活性ガス融解-熱伝導度法を用い、Oは不活性ガス融解-非分散型赤外線吸収法を用いて測定すればよい。
次に、本実施形態に係る鋼板の板厚1/4の深さ位置(板厚方向に沿って、表面から板厚の1/4の位置)の金属組織について説明する。
本実施形態に係る鋼板の金属組織の説明において、組織分率は面積率で表す。従って、特に断りがなければ金属組織の説明における「%」は「面積%」を表す。
フェライトは、鋼板においては相対的に軟質な相であり、鋼板の延性を改善し冷間圧延性を向上させる。そのため、板厚1/4の深さ位置において、フェライトは30面積%以上である。フェライトは、35面積%以上であることが好ましい。フェライトの上限値は特に限定されないが、本発明のような鋼板においては、例えば、90面積%以下である。
パーライトは、組織内に多量のセメンタイトを有する組織であり強度の上昇に寄与する鋼中のC(炭素)を消費し、軟質化する。そのため、板厚1/4の深さ位置において、パーライトは10面積%以上である。より好ましくはパーライトは15面積%以上である。
パーライトの上限値は特に限定されず、例えば、70面積%以下である。
残部組織は、0面積%以上60面積%以下である。残部組織は、金属組織からパーライトおよびフェライトを除いた残りの組織をいう。残部組織は、ベイナイト、マルテンサイト、残留オーステナイトのうち少なくとも1種以上を含む。残部組織は、ベイナイトおよびマルテンサイトのうち少なくとも一方を主体とする組織であることが好ましい。ここで、「ベイナイトおよびマルテンサイトのうち少なくとも一方を主体とする組織」とは、残部組織の全面積に対して、ベイナイトおよびマルテンサイトの合計が60面積%以上であることをいう。より好ましくは、残部組織の全面積に対してベイナイト及びマルテンサイトの合計が80面積%以上である。残部組織の全面積に対してベイナイト、マルテンサイト、残留オーステナイトの合計の上限は100面積%であってもよい。
ベイナイトは、マルテンサイトに対して軟質であるので強度よりも延性を重視する本実施形態に係る鋼板においてはマルテンサイトに代えてベイナイトが形成されるよう制御することが好ましい。ここで、マルテンサイトは、フレッシュマルテンサイトおよび焼戻しマルテンサイトを指すが、強度よりも延性を重視する本実施形態に係る鋼板においてはフレッシュマルテンサイトに代えて焼戻しマルテンサイトが形成されるように制御することが好ましい。例えば、ベイナイトは、10面積%以上とする。好ましくは15面積%以上である。マルテンサイトは、例えば、10面積%以下とする。好ましくは5面積%以下である。残留オーステナイトは、例えば、5面積%以下とする。
なお、FE-SEMでの観察においては、例えば、上記正方形とした観察領域における組織を以下のように区別する。ベイナイトは、ラス状の結晶粒の集合であり、そのラス組織の内部に長径20nm以上の鉄系炭化物を含まない領域、又は、ラス組織内部に長径20nm以上の鉄系炭化物を含む場合は、その炭化物が、単一のバリアント、即ち、同一方向に伸張した鉄系炭化物群に属する領域である。ここで、同一方向に伸長した鉄系炭化物群とは、鉄系炭化物群の伸長方向の差異が5°以内であるものをいう。
本実施形態の鋼板は、冷間圧延性を確保するために、フェライト結晶粒の板厚方向の分布状態を所定の範囲内とする。具体的には、微細なフェライト結晶粒を相対的に増大させるとともに、粗大なフェライト結晶粒を相対的に増大させる。フェライト結晶粒の板厚方向の分布状態を所定の範囲内とすることで冷間圧延性を確保することができる理由は明らかではないが、発明者は以下のように推測している。微細粒と粗大粒が混在することにより、各結晶粒に加わるひずみに分布が生じる。分布を持つ場合、圧延中においてひずみが高い粒からひずみが低い粒へひずみを逃がすこと(ひずみ分散)ができ、通常の分布を持つ場合よりも大きな冷間圧延性が確保できると推測される。なお、フェライト結晶粒の粒径の分布状態をより精緻に評価するために、全フェライト結晶粒のうち、最小結晶粒径側の5%および最大結晶粒径側の5%を除外したフェライト結晶粒を評価用のフェライト結晶粒として、粒径の分布状態を評価することとする。
具体的には、前述する電子後方散乱回折(EBSD)法で板厚1/4の深さ位置で測定されるフェライト結晶粒において、最大結晶粒径側から、フェライト結晶粒の全個数に対して5%のフェライト結晶粒と、フェライト結晶粒の最小結晶粒径側からフェライト結晶粒の全個数に対して5%のフェライト結晶粒と、を除いたフェライト結晶粒を評価フェライト結晶粒とする。この際、最大結晶粒径側または最小粒径側からn個の個数が全個数の5%未満であり、n+1個の個数が全個数の5%超となる場合は、n+1個の結晶粒を除くものとする。ここで、評価フェライト結晶粒の結晶粒径の最小値を第1粒径に設定し、評価フェライト結晶粒の結晶粒径の最大値を第2粒径に設定し、第1粒径に、前記第2粒径と前記第1粒径との差の1/3を加えた結晶粒径を第3粒径に設定し、第1粒径に、前記第2粒径と前記第1粒径との差の2/3を加えた結晶粒径を第4粒径とする。また、第1粒径以上、前記第3粒径以下の範囲を第1粒径範囲に設定し、第3粒径超、前記第4粒径以下の範囲を第2粒径範囲に設定し、第4粒径超、前記第2粒径以下の範囲を第3粒径範囲とする。
より好ましくは、本実施形態に係る鋼板の第1粒径範囲にある評価フェライト結晶粒の数は、第3粒径範囲にある評価フェライト結晶粒の数の1.2倍以上1.4倍以下である。
本実施形態に係る鋼板の第1粒径範囲にある評価フェライト結晶粒の数は、第3粒径範囲にある評価フェライト結晶粒の数の1.1倍以上1.4倍以下であることで、鋼板の冷間圧延性をより向上させることができる。
本実施形態に係る鋼板の全伸びは、冷間圧延性の観点から、40%以上であることが好ましい。より好ましくは、全伸びは50%以上である。
本実施形態に係る鋼板の板厚は限定されない。本実施形態に係る鋼板の板厚は、例えば、1.5mm~5.0mmであってもよい。
本実施形態に係る鋼板は、以下の工程(I)~(IV)を含む製造方法によって製造可能である。
(I)上述した化学組成を有するスラブを1100℃以上、1350℃未満に加熱する加熱工程
(II)加熱工程後のスラブを、複数の圧延スタンドに連続して通過させて圧延を行う仕上げ圧延工程であって、最初の4つの各圧延スタンドにおいて下記式(1)によって定めるσが50≦σ≦80を満足し、かつ、最後のスタンドにおいて、3≦σ≦10を満足するように圧延する仕上げ圧延工程
(III)仕上げ圧延工程終了後0.2秒から2.0秒以内に冷却を開始して、30℃/s以上の平均冷却速度で550℃~650℃の温度域まで冷却する冷却工程(IV)冷却工程後、巻取り温度が550℃~650℃の温度域となるように巻取る巻取り工程
以下、各工程について説明する。以降の各温度は、スラブまたは鋼板の表面温度とする。
加熱工程では、上述した本実施形態に係る鋼板と同様の化学組成を有するスラブを1100℃以上、1350℃未満に加熱することが好ましい。加熱温度が1100℃未満では、材料の均質化が不十分となりやすい。また、加熱温度を1350℃以上にすると、第1粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数、第2粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数、および第3粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数が所定の関係を満足しにくくなる。
仕上げ圧延工程では、加熱工程後のスラブを必要に応じて粗圧延を実施した後、複数の圧延スタンドに連続して通過させて圧延を行う。本実施形態に係る鋼板の製造方法では、加熱工程後のスラブを、最初の4つの各圧延スタンドにおいて下記式(1)によって定めるσ(単位:kgf/mm2)が50≦σ≦80を満足し、かつ、最後の圧延スタンドにおいて、3≦σ≦10を満足するように圧延することが好ましい。
σ=exp(0.753+3000/T)×ε0.21×ε’0.13・・・(1)
ここで、Tは前記スタンドに入る直前の温度(K)であり、εは相当塑性ひずみであり、ε’はひずみ速度(/s)である。
冷却工程では、仕上げ圧延工程終了後0.2秒から2.0秒の間に冷却を開始することが好ましい。0.2秒から2.0秒の間に30℃/秒以上で冷却することでオーステナイト結晶粒の成長を止めることができる。平均冷却速度は、30℃/秒以上であることが好ましい。平均冷却速度の上限は特に限定されないが例えば、180℃/秒以下である。これによって、オーステナイト→フェライト変態後に第1粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶の粒の数が第2粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数の2.5倍以上3.0倍以下となり、かつ、第3粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数が第2粒径範囲の評価フェライト結晶粒の数の2.0倍以上、2.5倍以下となりやすくなる。平均冷却速度は、冷却開始の温度と冷却終了の温度との差を冷却開始から冷却終了までの時間で除することで求めることができる。
巻取り工程では、冷却工程後、巻取り温度が550℃~650℃の温度域となるように巻取る。550℃~650℃の温度域で巻取りすることで、マルテンサイト、ベイナイトなどの形成を抑制し、パーライト、フェライトの形成を促進することができる。
表1および表2に示される化学組成を有するスラブを鋳造した。鋳造後のスラブを表3の条件で加熱し、仕上げ圧延を行った。仕上げ圧延後、表4の条件で冷却および巻取りを行った。表3中の各圧延スタンド間の平均パス間時間は、各圧延スタンド間のパス間時間の平均値である。なお、各実施例の各圧延スタンド間のパス間時間は、0.2秒以上3.0秒以下であった。
