Summary of the invention

[0011] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a thick cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel plate with a yield strength of 350 MPa and a manufacturing method thereof, mainly to solve the technical problems that the existing cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel plate with a thickness of 1.95 to 2.00 mm and a yield strength of 350 MPa has a thickness range of >0.03 mm, high production cost and poor bending performance.

[0012] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0013] A thick cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel plate with a yield strength of 350 MPa, wherein the chemical composition of the substrate is as follows: C: 0.17% to 0.19%, Si: 0.001% to 0.054%, Mn: 0.66% to 0.76%, P≤0.025%, S≤0.025%, Alt: 0.010% to 0.030%, Mn / S is 30 to 38, and the remainder is Fe and unavoidable impurity elements.

[0014] The metallographic structure of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet of the present invention is fine ferrite + free cementite + a small amount of pearlite, and the ferrite grain size level is I9-I11; the yield strength R of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet with a thickness of 1.95-2.00 mm is P0.2 350~420MPa, tensile strength R m 420~500MPa, elongation after fracture A 80mm 18% to 25%; the thickness range of cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet is ≤0.03mm; 180° bending test, d=0a is qualified, the outer surface of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet does not peel off, and the base plate of the hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet does not crack; the weight of the single-sided zinc layer of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet is 60 to 75g / m 2 .

[0015] Cold-rolled and hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel plates meet the requirements for the preparation of C-shaped columns of electrical cabinets.

[0016] The reasons why the chemical composition of the substrate of the thick cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet with a yield strength of 350 MPa described in the present invention is limited to the above range are as follows:

[0017] Carbon: Carbon is the most economical solid solution strengthening element. As the carbon content increases, the strength of the steel matrix increases. Most of the existing technical solutions use Ti and P for strengthening. Since ferrophosphorus and ferrotitanium alloys contain more impurities, they form titanium oxides that are not easy to remove, affecting the castability of molten steel and the quality of slabs. Therefore, from the perspective of product quality and economy, the present invention has preferably set the carbon content at 0.17% to 0.19% through multiple tests.

[0018] Silicon: Silicon is a residual element in steel. No silicon alloy is added during the production process. The present invention limits Si to 0.001% to 0.054%.

[0019] Manganese: Manganese is an important solid solution strengthening element. Adding appropriate Mn can effectively improve the strength of steel plates. However, since manganese alloys are relatively expensive, it is necessary to comprehensively consider quality, strength, and cost to select an appropriate range. Since the affinity of manganese to sulfur is greater than that of iron to sulfur, manganese and sulfur form high-melting-point MnS (melting point 1600°C) to replace low-melting-point FeS (the eutectic melting temperature of Fe and FeS is 988°C), reducing the probability of FeS precipitation between crystals and reducing the hot brittleness of steel. When the Mn / S ratio is less than 20, cold bending cracking is prone to occur. When the Mn / S ratio is greater than 38, the production cost increases significantly. The applicant has found that when the Mn / S ratio is 30 to 38, economical cost and excellent bending performance can be obtained. The present invention considers bending performance and cost. After multiple tests, the preferred range of manganese content is determined to be 0.66% to 0.76%.

[0020] Sulfur: S in the present invention is an impurity element. According to the actual steelmaking production capacity and the impact of desulfurization on the cost, the present invention limits S to ≤ 0.025%.

[0021] Phosphorus: P in the present invention is an impurity element. According to the actual steelmaking production capacity and the impact of dephosphorization on the cost, the present invention limits P to ≤ 0.025%.

[0022] Aluminum: In addition to being the main deoxidizing element, Al added to steel can combine with N in steel to form AlN. When the Al content is greater than 0.030%, excessive aluminum will increase costs. When the Al content is less than 0.10%, it is easy to cause insufficient deoxidation of molten steel, resulting in high inclusions in the steel, and cracking is prone to occur during processing. Therefore, the addition range of aluminum in steel is controlled to ensure deoxidation while minimizing production costs. The present invention sets Al: 0.010% to 0.030%.

[0023] Manganese-sulfur ratio: In order to obtain a more uniform yield strength in the plate width direction, the manganese-sulfur ratio is beneficial to the uniformity of the structure, and is also beneficial to obtaining economical cost and excellent bending performance. The present invention sets the ratio of the weight content of manganese to the weight content of sulfur in the steel, Mn / S, to preferably 30 to 38.

[0024] A method for manufacturing a thick cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet with a yield strength of 350 MPa, the method comprising:

[0025] The molten steel is continuously cast to obtain a continuous casting slab, wherein the chemical composition of the molten steel is as follows: C: 0.17% to 0.19%, Si: 0.001% to 0.054%, Mn: 0.66% to 0.76%, P≤0.025%, S≤0.025%, Alt: 0.010% to 0.030%, Mn / S is 30 to 38, and the remainder is Fe and unavoidable impurity elements;

[0026] The continuous casting slab is heated to 1170-1220° C. in a heating furnace and then hot rolled. The hot rolling is a two-stage rolling process. The finishing temperature of the finishing rolling is 850-870° C. and the finishing rolling reduction rate is 90%-91%. After finishing rolling, the thickness of the hot-rolled steel plate is controlled to be 3.6-4.0 mm, the convexity of the hot-rolled steel plate is 0.010-0.035 mm, the laminar cooling adopts the front-stage cooling, and the coiling temperature is 520-560° C. to obtain the hot-rolled steel coil;

[0027] After the hot-rolled steel coil is unrolled, it is pickled, cold rolled, annealed in a horizontal continuous annealing furnace, hot-dip galvanized, cooled to room temperature after plating, coated with a fingerprint-resistant film, and the coil is obtained to obtain a finished cold-rolled hot-dip galvanized steel sheet with a thickness of 1.95-2.00 mm. The cold rolling reduction rate is 50%-55%. The heating temperature of the hardened strip steel after cold rolling in the horizontal continuous annealing furnace is 720-740°C, the temperature of the soaking section is 781-790°C, and the annealing time of the strip steel in the soaking section is 55-65s; the strip steel is directly put into the zinc pot for hot-dip galvanizing; the temperature of the strip steel entering the zinc pot is 550-600°C; the weight of the single-side zinc layer of the cold-rolled hot-dip galvanized steel sheet is controlled to be 60-75g / m 2 .

[0028] Furthermore, the speed of the strip passing through the zinc pot is controlled to be 55-65m / min, and the hot-dip aluminum-zinc coating effect is best.

[0029] The reasons for the production process adopted by the present invention are as follows:

[0030] 1. Setting of finishing rolling and coiling temperature

[0031] The composition of the present invention is predicted to have an A3 phase line temperature of 847.5° C. In order to obtain a steel plate with a certain strength, high formability and flatness, preferably, the hot rolling process is: the finishing temperature of the finishing rolling is 850-870° C., and the coiling temperature is 520-560° C.

[0032] 2. Setting of convexity of hot rolled steel plate

[0033] The convexity of the hot-rolled steel plate is crucial to the thickness uniformity of the aluminum-zinc steel coil in the width direction. The smallest possible convexity is beneficial to reducing the thickness range. However, if the convexity is too small, it will affect the rolling stability of the acid rolling unit. After many tests, the convexity of the hot-rolled steel plate is set to 0.010-0.035mm. Preferably, when the width of the hot-rolled steel plate is 800-1000mm, the convexity of the hot-rolled steel plate is 0.010-0.030mm; when the width of the hot-rolled steel plate is 1001-1300mm, the convexity of the hot-rolled steel plate is 0.015-0.035mm.

[0034] 3. Setting the temperature of the heating section of the horizontal continuous annealing furnace

[0035] In order to make the steel plate fully recover recrystallization, a horizontal continuous annealing furnace is used to heat the steel plate, and the heating temperature is controlled at 720℃~740℃.

[0036] The metallographic structure of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet produced by the above method is fine ferrite + free cementite + a small amount of pearlite, and the ferrite grain size grade is I9~I11; the yield strength R of the 1.95~2.00mm thick cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet is P0.2 350~420MPa, tensile strength Rm 420~500MPa, elongation after fracture A 80mm 18% to 25%; the thickness range of cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet is ≤0.03mm; 180° bending test, d=0a is qualified, the outer surface of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet does not peel off, and the base plate of the hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet does not crack; the weight of the single-sided zinc layer of the cold-rolled hot-dip aluminum-zinc steel sheet is 60 to 75g / m 2 .

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following positive effects: 1. The steel plate of the present invention can achieve the high thickness accuracy required by the C-shaped column, and the thickness range is ≤0.03mm. 2. The method of the present invention adopts a conventional acid rolling unit, and the cold rolling reduction rate is 50-55%, the unit load is small, and the manufacturing process is simple. 3. The steel plate of the present invention has good economy, and only economic elements carbon and manganese are added to achieve high strength and low cost. It is particularly easy to implement in the actual smelting production process, and the production cost is greatly reduced compared with the existing process. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
