However, hot-formed steel produces oxide scale during the heating process, leading to the development of aluminum-silicon coated hot-formed steel. Aluminum-silicon coatings are primarily composed of aluminum. Currently, aluminum-silicon coated hot-formed steel is widely used in the hot stamping field.

[0040] Firstly, this application provides a method for preparing a thermoformed part with an aluminum-silicon coated layer; please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The method includes:

[0041] S1. Obtain a steel substrate with a set chemical composition;

[0042] In some embodiments, prior to step S1, the process includes hot metal pretreatment, converter smelting, refining, continuous casting, and rolling to obtain a steel substrate.

[0043] In some embodiments, the specified chemical composition includes: C, Si, Mn, Cr, Al, B, S, P, Ti, Nb, Ni, Cu, Mo, V, and Fe; by mass fraction,

[0044] The content of C is 0.05%–0.50%, the content of Si is 0.08%–1.2%, the content of Mn is 0.8%–8.0%, the content of Cr is ≤1.5%, the content of Al is ≤0.10%, the content of B is ≤0.01%, the content of S is ≤0.01%, the content of P is ≤0.01%, the content of Ti is ≤0.4%, the content of Nb is ≤0.1%, the content of Ni is ≤1%, the content of Cu is ≤0.5%, the content of Mo is ≤1%, and the content of V is ≤0.25%.

[0045] The C content can be 0.05%, 0.10%, 0.20%, 0.30%, 0.40%, 0.50%, etc.; the Si content can be 0.08%, 0.20%, 0.40%, 0.80%, 1.0%, 1.1%, 1.2%, etc.; the Mn content can be 0.8%, 1.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%, 6.0%, 7.0%, 8.0%. The content of Cr can be 0%, 0.2%, 0.6%, 1.0%, 1.2%, 1.5%, etc.; the content of Al can be 0%, 0.02%, 0.06%, 0.08%, 0.10%, etc.; the content of B can be 0%, 0.002%, 0.006%, 0.008%, 0.01%, etc.; the content of S can be 0%, 0.002%, 0.0%, etc. The content of P can be 0%, 0.002%, 0.006%, 0.008%, 0.01%, etc.; the content of Ti can be 0%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, etc.; the content of Nb can be 0%, 0.002%, 0.006%, 0.008%, 0.01%, etc. The Ni content can be 0%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.7%, 1%, etc.; the Cu content can be 0%, 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, etc.; the Mo content can be 0%, 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1.0%, etc.; and the V content can be 0%, 0.05%, 0.10%, 0.20%, 0.25%, etc.

[0046] S2. The steel substrate is hot-dip coated to obtain a steel substrate with an aluminum-silicon coating.

[0047] In some embodiments, the hot-dip plating temperature is 650°C to 680°C, and the plating solution composition includes Al and Si, wherein the mass fraction of Si is 6% to 16%.

[0048] The hot-dip galvanizing temperature can be 650℃, 660℃, 670℃, 680℃, etc., and the mass fraction of Si element can be 6%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 14%, 16%, etc.

[0049] S3. Based on the parameters of the spraying equipment and the particle density value of the metal powder, the particle size of the metal powder is obtained.

[0050] In some embodiments, the metal powder can react with the alloying elements in the aluminum-silicon coating, and the metal powder includes at least one of Zn, Al, Mg, Ni, Cr, Cu, La, and Sn.

[0051] In some embodiments, the spraying temperature is greater than the melting point of the metal powder.

[0052] When adding elements, the temperature of the steel substrate needs to be higher than the melting temperature of the added metal powder to ensure that the added metal powder can be incorporated into the coating on the surface of the steel substrate. The added elements will react with elements such as Al, Si, and Fe in the coating, as well as undergo oxidation reactions with the sprayed elements, to generate alloy phases and oxides, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the hot-formed steel.

[0053] In some embodiments, when the metal powder is zinc, the surface temperature of the steel substrate is ≥420°C.

[0054] This is because zinc powder has a melting point of 419.53℃, ensuring that the zinc powder can melt after being added to the coating surface of the steel substrate. The temperature of the aluminum-silicon plating bath is 650℃~680℃. After the aluminum-silicon coating is prepared on the hot-formed steel surface, the temperature is usually higher than 420℃. Therefore, zinc powder spraying at this temperature ensures that the zinc powder completely melts and integrates into the coating, and further reacts with other elements in the coating. This ensures that a certain amount of zinc is present in the coating.

[0055] In some embodiments, the particle size of the metal powder satisfies the following relationship:

[0056]

[0057] The meaning, value, and unit of each parameter in the relation are shown in Table 1.

[0058] Table 1. Meaning, values, and units of each parameter in the relational expression.

[0059] name symbol numerical values unit Particle size (diameter) of metal powder <![CDATA[d p ]]> To be sought m Particle density value of metal powder <![CDATA[ρ p ]]> Particle density value <![CDATA[g / cm 3 ]]> gravitational acceleration g 9.8 <![CDATA[Kg / N,m / s 2 ]]> air density ρ 1.29 <![CDATA[Kg / m 3 ]]> Traction coefficient C 0.44 - The fan provides air volume Q Reference field equipment <![CDATA[m 3 / min]]> Air supply duct diameter D Reference field equipment mm Wind turbine power related adjustment coefficient n Fan power related -

[0060] To achieve successful spraying, the particle size of the metal powder and the compatibility with the equipment must be considered. The equipment parameters primarily consider the fan power and duct size, as these determine the air velocity within the duct, ensuring the metal powder is lifted and delivered to the strip surface. To guarantee that the metal powder can be lifted by the powder feeding mechanism and delivered to the strip surface, a critical particle size calculation model based on the equipment parameters is proposed. This powder feeding mechanism mainly consists of a fan and ducts. The fan provides power, supplying air into the ducts, where the metal powder is added and blown onto the strip surface by the airflow.

[0061] The air volume Q provided by the fan of the spraying equipment and the adjustment coefficient n related to the fan power of the spraying equipment satisfy the following relationship:

[0062] If Q ≥ 34, then n = 1.1;

[0063] If 34 > Q ≥ 17, then n = -(9 / 170)Q + 2.9;

[0064] If Q < 17, then n = 2.

[0065] Because the uniformity of metal powder cannot be guaranteed during manufacturing, the presence of some powder particles with sizes exceeding the theoretical value must be considered. Therefore, the n-value needs to be greater than 1. When the fan power is low, it is more likely that large-sized metal powder particles will not be blown away; therefore, as the fan power decreases, the n-value increases. The finer the sprayed metal powder is relative to the theoretical critical value, the better the uniformity of the spraying can be guaranteed, which is the significance of the n-value.

[0066] In some embodiments, after the spraying, the coverage of the metal powder on the aluminum-silicon coating is ≥50%.

[0067] The coverage of the coating surface after spraying can be 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, etc.

[0068] In some embodiments, after the spraying, the coverage of the metal powder on the aluminum-silicon coating is ≥80%.

[0069] To further improve the corrosion resistance of hot-formed steel, the coverage of the coating surface after spraying can be 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, etc.

[0070] S4. Spray the metal powder having the specified metal powder size onto at least a portion of the surface of the aluminum-silicon coating, and then perform hot stamping to obtain a thermoformed part with an aluminum-silicon coating.

[0071] In some embodiments, the heating temperature of the hot stamping is 860°C to 960°C, and the holding time of the hot stamping is 3 min to 20 min.

[0072] During hot stamping, the sheet metal is first heated to 860℃~960℃ and held at that temperature for 3min~20min. Then, it is transferred to a hot stamping die for forming. After forming, it undergoes pressure quenching to complete the martensitic transformation of the substrate. The hot-stamped parts are then subjected to performance testing to ensure they meet requirements. The heating temperature for hot stamping can be 860℃, 870℃, 900℃, 930℃, 950℃, 960℃, etc., and the holding time can be 3min, 5min, 8min, 12min, 16min, 18min, 20min, etc.

[0073] Secondly, this application provides an aluminum-silicon coated thermoformed part, the part being prepared by the method described in any one of claims 1-8, wherein the overall coating of the part contains Al, Si, Fe and alloy phases and oxides of the metal powder, the mass fraction of Si element in the overall coating is ≤12%, the thickness of the overall coating is 7um to 60um, and the standard deviation / average thickness of the overall coating is ≤0.3.

[0074] By adding elements to the aluminum-silicon coating, these added elements react with elements such as Al, Si, and Fe in the coating, and undergo oxidation reactions to generate alloy phases and oxides, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of hot-formed steel and forming hot-formed steel products with novel coatings. The mass fraction of Si in this overall coating can be 2%, 4%, 6%, 10%, 12%, etc., and the thickness of the overall coating can be 7µm, 10µm, 15µm, 30µm, 40µm, 50µm, 60µm, etc., with the standard deviation / average thickness of the overall coating being 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, etc.

[0075] In some embodiments, when the added element is Zn, the area of ​​the overall coating is 1m². 2 The Zn element coating mass is ≤16g.

[0076] When the added element is Zn, the total area of ​​the coating is 1m². 2 The Zn element can be sprayed in quantities of 2g, 5g, 8g, 12g, 16g, etc.

[0077] In some embodiments, the tensile strength of the part is 500 MPa to 2000 MPa.

[0078] The tensile strength of this part can be 500MPa, 800MPa, 1000MPa, 1500MPa, 2000MPa, etc.

[0079] The present application is further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the application. Experimental methods in the following embodiments that do not specify specific conditions are generally determined according to national standards. If there is no corresponding national standard, then general international standards, conventional conditions, or conditions recommended by the manufacturer are followed.

[0080] Example 1

[0081] The preparation of the thermoformed part in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0082] S11. Preparation of the steel substrate. The chemical composition and mass content of the steel substrate are as follows: C: 0.23%; Si: 0.26%; Mn: 1.26%; Cr: 0.18%; Al: 0.06%; B: 0.0029%; S: 0.001%; ​​P: 0.006%; Ti: 0.03%; Nb: 0.05%; Ni: 0.03%; Cu: 0.005%; Mo: 0.006%; V: 0.003%.

[0083] S21. A steel substrate is hot-dip coated to obtain a steel substrate with an aluminum-silicon coating. The hot-dip coating temperature is 665℃. The main component of the hot-dip coating solution is Al, and the mass fraction of Si is 10%.

[0084] S31. Based on the formula of the critical size calculation model for sprayed metal powder using equipment parameters, the particle size of the metal powder is calculated. The values ​​of each parameter in the formula during zinc powder spraying are shown in Table 2.

[0085] Table 2 shows the values ​​of each parameter in the relationship formula under zinc powder spraying conditions.

[0086]

[0087]

[0088] The critical metal powder size of Zn powder was calculated to be 17.98 μm, while the zinc powder size for this air supply equipment was 16 μm.

[0089] S41. Zn element powder is added to the aluminum-silicon coating by spraying, with a coverage rate of 80%. Then, hot stamping is performed to obtain the aluminum-silicon coated thermoformed part. The heating temperature for hot stamping is 910℃, and the holding time is 5 minutes.

[0090] The performance of the thermoformed part prepared in this embodiment was tested. The mass fraction of Si in the overall coating was 10%, the thickness of the overall coating was 36 μm, and the standard deviation / average thickness of the overall coating was 0.2. The tensile strength of the part was 1468 MPa.

[0091] This embodiment improves the corrosion resistance of hot-formed steel by adding Zn to the aluminum-silicon coating. Zn reacts with elements such as Al, Si, and Fe in the coating and undergoes oxidation to generate alloy phases and oxides.

[0092] Appendix Figure 2-6 Detailed explanation:

[0093] like Figure 2 As shown, the surface morphology of aluminum-silicon coated thermoformed parts is different from that of traditional aluminum-silicon coated steel sheets with aluminum flower patterns.

[0094] like Figure 3 As shown, the microstructure of the aluminum-silicon coated steel sheet (before heat treatment for hot forming) exhibits a discontinuous planar morphology, mainly due to the chemical reaction between the zinc powder and the original aluminum and silicon elements after melting.

[0095] like Figure 4 As shown, the surface of the aluminum-silicon coated thermoformed parts (after heat treatment) exhibits a granular appearance, mainly due to the chemical reactions, including oxidation reactions, of the zinc, iron, aluminum, and silicon elements on the surface during the heat treatment process of thermoforming.

[0096] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the zinc and oxygen content on the coating surface was analyzed using GDS. After the heat treatment of hot forming, the Zn thickness increased, mainly due to the formation of oxide particles. Furthermore, the oxygen content was measured, and it was found that the oxygen content on the coating surface increased significantly after heat treatment, resulting in a significant increase in coating thickness.

[0097] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the element addition method described in this application can successfully spray metal powder onto the coating surface. After heat treatment, the sprayed elements remain in the original coating, improving the corrosion resistance of the hot-formed steel.

[0098] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, enabling those skilled in the art to understand or implement this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, this application is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features claimed herein.
