Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a steel plate and a manufacturing method therefor, and particularly relates to a cold-rolled steel plate and a manufacturing method therefor.Background Art
[0002] High-strength steel is a material that is being used more and more widely at present. Cold-rolled high-strength steel usually requires an addition of relatively high contents of alloying elements such as C, Si, Mn, Cr, and Al, combined with the continuous annealing process and phase transformation strengthening to achieve certain strength and formability.
[0003] Phosphating is a pretreatment process before automotive electrophoretic coating. By immersing a steel plate or a part made of a steel plate in phosphating solution, a layer of insoluble phosphating film is formed on the surface of the steel plate or the part, thereby improving the adhesion of the paint film.
[0004] However, when using continuous annealing to produce cold-rolled high-strength steel, alloying elements such as Si and Mn in the steel can form external oxidation on a surface of a strip steel after annealing. The external oxidation of Si and Mn on the surface of a steel plate can affect the nucleation and growth of the phosphating film, thereby affecting the coating quality of automotive parts. Therefore, in recent years, the phosphating performance of high-strength steel has gradually attracted attention.
[0005] For example, the Chinese patent application with publication number CN107419185A, publication date December 1, 2017, and titled "A Cold-rolled Steel Plate with Good Phosphating Performance and Production Method Therefor" mainly produces a cold-rolled plate with good phosphating performance by precisely controlling the composition, and simultaneously through hot rolling, pickling, five-stand full six-roller cold rolling, continuous annealing, and leveling process.
[0006] For another example, the Chinese patent application with publication number CN111910123A, publication date November 10, 2020, and titled "Cold-Rolled Continuous Annealing Ultra-High Strength Steel with Good Phosphating Performance and Preparation Method Therefor" discloses an annealing process for obtaining good phosphating performance of cold-rolled continuously annealing ultra-high strength steel. It specifies that a H 2 content of an annealing atmosphere is 6% to 15%, a dew point is -45 °C to -41 °C, and an oxygen content is 2 ppm to 5 ppm, whose purpose is to inhibit the selective oxidation of alloying elements through the above parameters, thereby achieving good phosphating performance.
[0007] It can be seen from this that in the prior art, controlling the content of alloying elements is a method for obtaining excellent phosphating performance, but limiting the content of alloy elements will affect the properties of the material.
[0008] In addition, controlling the annealing atmosphere is another method for improving the phosphating performance of a cold-rolled steel plate with high alloy content. However, a method of controlling both dew point and oxygen content at a relatively low level is rather difficult and costly; while a method of controlling a dew point at a relatively high level will cause decarburization on the surface of a steel plate, therefore this method also has certain limitations.
[0009] Based on this, it is desired to provide a novel cold-rolled high-strength steel plate that achieves excellent phosphating performance.Summary
[0010] One object of the present invention is to provide a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance, which achieves excellent phosphating performance by controlling Mn and Si elements not enriching on the surface of the steel plate.
[0011] Based on the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance, wherein, on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate, a mass percentage peak value of Mn element Mn p is ≤10.0%, and a mass percentage peak value of Si Si p is ≤4.0%, and both the mass percentage peak value of Mn element Mn p and the mass percentage peak value of Si element Si p are located at a depth of ≥50 nm from the surface of the steel plate. Herein, a mass percentage peak value of Mn element Mn p and a mass percentage peak value of Si element Si p are detected by glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES).
[0012] In the present invention, the key to achieving excellent phosphating performance of a cold-rolled high-strength steel is that on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from a surface layer of a steel plate detected by glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES), a mass percentage peak value of Mn Mn p is ≤ 10.0%, and a mass percentage peak value of Si Si p is ≤ 4.0%. This is because in a cold-rolled high-strength steel produced through continuous annealing, alloying elements, such as Mn and Si, form external oxidation on the annealed steel plate, and the Si and Mn elements will be significantly enriched on the surface. The mass percentage peak values of Mn or Si on the surface of the steel plate can reach several to dozens of times that of the matrix Mn or Si. These oxides will hinder the reaction between the phosphating solution and the steel plate, thereby affecting the phosphating performance of the high-strength steel.
[0013] Through research, the inventors have found that when a mass percentage peak value of Mn Mn p exceeds 10% or a mass percentage peak value of Si Si p exceeds 4%, on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from a surface layer of a steel plate, the phosphating performance of a steel plate is poor. Therefore, the present invention controls Mn p ≤ 10% and Si p ≤ 4%. In some embodiments, the present invention controls Mn p ≤ 8.5% and Si p ≤ 3.0%. In some embodiments, Mn p is between 5.0 and 10.0%, and Si p is between 0.1 and 3.0%.
[0014] To achieve excellent phosphating performance, the present invention controls a depth of Mn p t pMn to ≥ 50 nm and a depth of Si p t pSi to ≥ 50 nm. This is because through research the inventors have found that when a depth of Mn p and a depth of Si p are less than 50 nm, even if Mn p is ≤ 10% or Si p is ≤ 4%, external oxidation of Si and Mn at local positions cannot be avoided, and the local phosphating performance is poor.
[0015] Further, in the cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, the mass percentage peak value of Mn element Mn p and the mass percentage peak value of Si element Si p are located at a depth of 50-500 nm from the surface of the steel plate.
[0016] Although the phosphating performance of a cold-rolled high-strength steel is also excellent when t pMn is > 500 nm and t pSi is> 500 nm, achieving these values requires a higher pre-oxidation temperature and a longer pre-oxidation time. Therefore, a preferred t pMn of the present invention is ≤ 500 nm, and t pSi is ≤ 500 nm. In some embodiments, the present invention controls t pMn between 100 nm and 450 nm, and t pSi between 100 nm and 450 nm.
[0017] Further, in the cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate, a mass percentage peak value of Fe element Fe p is ≥85%, and a mass percentage peak value of Fe element Fe p is located within a depth range of 0-t pSi from the surface of the steel plate, wherein t pSi represents a depth position where a mass percentage peak value of Si element Si p appears. In the present invention, Fe p refers to a mass percentage peak value of Fe element with a depth in the range of 0-t pSi from the surface of the steel plate.
[0018] When Fe p is ≥85%, it can be ensured that during the phosphating process of a cold-rolled high-strength steel, there is sufficient Fe on the surface to react with the phosphating solution, thereby achieving excellent phosphating performance.
[0019] Further preferably, when Fe p is ≥90%, the phosphating performance is even better.
[0020] Further, a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention comprises a base layer, a surface layer and a transition layer between the base layer and the surface layer in the thickness direction; wherein a microstructure of the surface layer is ferrite.
[0021] Further, in a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, a thickness of the surface layer is 50-500 nm.
[0022] When the thickness of the surface layer, i.e., the ferrite layer, is 50-500 nm, it can be ensured that a mass percentage peak value of Mn Mn p and a mass percentage peak value of Si element Si p are located at a depth t p of 50-500 nm, on the element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve detected by glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES).
[0023] In a high-strength steel with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, when a thickness of a surface layer is 50-500 nm, the Mn and Si elements that diffuse outward from the matrix during annealing are primarily enriched in a transition layer. The ferrite surface layer can effectively prevent alloying elements such as Mn and Si from diffusing to the surface of the ferrite, thereby ensuring that a mass percentage peak value of Mn Mn p and a mass percentage peak value of Si Si p are located at a depth t p of 50-500 nm, on the element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve detected by glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES).
[0024] Further, in a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, a microstructure of the base layer is martensite + ferrite, or martensite + ferrite + residual austenite.
[0025] Further, in a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention, the transition layer comprises oxides of Mn, Si, and Fe and / or composite oxides of Mn, Si, and Fe. Oxides of Mn, Si, and Fe refer to oxides of Mn, oxides of Si, or oxides of Fe. Composite oxides of Mn, Si, and Fe refer to oxides of two or three elements of Mn, Si, and Fe.
[0026] Furthermore, the oxides of Mn, Si and Fe are at least one of the following: MnO, MnO 2 , SiO 2 , FeO, Fe 2 O 3 and Fe 3 O 4 ; the composite oxides of Mn, Si and Fe are at least one of the following: MnSiO 3 , Mn 2 SiO 4 , Mn 2 FeO 3 , Mn 2 FeO 4 , FeSiO 3 , Fe 2 SiO 3 and Fe 2 SiO 4 .
[0027] Further, a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention has a tensile strength of ≥ 780 MPa. Further, a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention has a tensile strength of ≥ 980 MPa. Further, a cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention has a tensile strength of ≥ 1180 MPa.
[0028] There are no special restrictions on the type and elemental composition of a cold-rolled high-strength steel in this application. Various cold-rolled high-strength steels known in the art are prepared by the method of the present invention, thereby having the structure (such as the element distribution described herein) and phosphating performance described herein.
[0029] In some embodiments, a cold-rolled high-strength steel sheet with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention comprises the following elements with mass percentages as follows: C: 0.07-0.30%, Si: 0.07-3.0%, Mn: 1.5-5.0%.
[0030] Furthermore, the mass percentages of each chemical elements of a cold-rolled high-strength steel sheet with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention are as follows: C: 0.07-0.30%, Si: 0.07-3.0%, Mn: 1.5-5.0%, and one or more of Nb, Ti, Al, B, Cr, Mo, Ni, and V, with a total mass percentage of Nb, Ti, Al, B, Cr, Mo, Ni, and V being less than or equal to 2.0%; and a balance of Fe and inevitable impurities.
[0031] The inevitable impurities are mainly S and P, and their contents are expected to be as low as possible. In some embodiments, P can be controlled to be ≤ 0.05% and S can be controlled to be ≤ 0.02%.
[0032] The design principles of the above elements are as follows: C: Carbon is a solid solution strengthening element necessary for ensuring strength in steel. When the C content is too low, the strength of the steel is relatively low, while when the C content is too high, the weldability of the steel is poor. Therefore, the C content of the present invention is controlled at 0.07-0.30%.
[0033] Si: Silicon has an effect of improving both the strength and formability of the steel, but when the Si content is too high, the difficulty of production and manufacturing increases. Therefore, the Si content of the present invention is controlled at 0.07-3.0%.
[0034] Mn: Manganese is an element that increases the stability of austenite, has the effect of reducing the critical cooling rate during quenching of steel and improving the hardenability of steel. Mn can also improve the work hardening performance of steel, thereby increasing the strength of steel. Therefore, the Mn content of the present invention is controlled at 1.5-5.0%.
[0035] Nb, Ti, Al, B, Cr, Mo, Ni, and V elements have the effects of solid solution strengthening, refining microstructure, and improving hardenability. Adding a small amount helps to further improve the strength and toughness of steel. Therefore, the present invention may also comprise one or more of Nb, Ti, Al, B, Cr, Mo, Ni, and V elements, and their total amount by mass percentage is controlled to be less than or equal to 2.0%. In some embodiments, when present, the content of Nb may be 0.01-0.1%, the content of Ti may be 0.01-0.05%, the content of Al may be 0.01-1.5%, the content of B may be 0.0002-0.0008%, the content of Cr may be 0.01-0.5%, the content of Mo may be 0.1-0.3%, the content of Ni may be 0.0001-0.03%, and the content of Ni may be 0.01-0.1%.
[0036] Another object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method for the cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance. The manufacturing method adopts a unique continuous annealing process to control the enrichment position and enrichment amount of the Mn and Si elements in the steel plate, thereby achieving excellent phosphating performance.
[0037] Based on the above object, the present invention provides a manufacturing method for the above cold-rolled high-strength steel sheet with excellent phosphating performance, comprising the following steps of: smelting, casting, hot rolling, pickling, cold rolling, and continuous annealing; wherein, in the continuous annealing step, a first-stage heating is performed to the cold-rolled sheet in an oxidizing atmosphere, then a second-stage heating and soaking are performed in a reducing atmosphere, followed by cooling and coiling.
[0038] In the manufacturing method of the present invention, smelting, casting, hot rolling, pickling and cold rolling all adopt existing conventional processes. In an exemplary method, in the hot rolling step, a heating temperature is controlled to be 1150-1260 °C, a start temperature of the finishing rolling is 1100-1220 °C, and a final temperature of the finishing rolling is 900-950 °C. In the cold rolling step, a cold rolling reduction ratio is controlled to be ≥50%. In some embodiments, commercially available cold-rolled steel can be used to implement the annealing process of the present application.
[0039] In the continuous annealing step, the purpose of adopting an oxidizing atmosphere in the first-stage heating is to form iron oxide on the surface of the steel plate during the first-stage heating process, and the purpose of adopting a reducing atmosphere in the second-stage heating and soaking is to reduce the iron oxide formed during the first-stage heating process to form ferrite, thereby forming a surface layer composed entirely of ferrite, so that Mn and Si elements cannot be enriched on the surface of the steel plate.
[0040] Further, in some embodiments of the manufacturing method of the present invention, the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is obtained by controlling the air-fuel ratio of the direct-fired furnace to be 0.95-1.05.
[0041] In some embodiments, when the first-stage heating is performed using a direct-fired furnace, an oxidizing atmosphere can be achieved by adjusting the air-fuel ratio. When the air-fuel ratio is less than 0.95, oxidation is insufficient; when the air-fuel ratio is greater than 1.05, excessive oxidation occurs. Therefore, the air-fuel ratio is controlled to be 0.95-1.05.
[0042] Further, in other embodiments of the manufacturing method of the present invention, the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is a mixture gas of N 2 and O 2 , wherein the volume percentage of O 2 is 0.01-1%.
[0043] In other embodiments, when the first-stage heating is performed using an infrared radiation furnace, an oxidizing atmosphere is achieved by using a mixed gas of N 2 and O 2 . When the volume percentage of O 2 is less than 0.01%, oxidation is insufficient; when the volume percentage of O 2 is greater than 1%, further increasing O 2 will lead to excessive oxidation. Therefore, the volume percentage of O 2 is controlled to be 0.01-1%.
[0044] Further, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, the heating rate of the first-stage heating is 1-50 °C / s, the first-stage heating is heating from room temperature to T 1 , and T 1 and the mass percentage of Si satisfy: 570 + 4000xSi ≤ T 1 ≤ 600 + 9000×Si.
[0045] The thickness of the oxide layer on the surface of the steel plate will increase as the end temperature T 1 of the first-stage heating increases. Therefore, in order to obtain an appropriate thickness of an oxide layer, the upper and lower limits of the T 1 temperature need to be controlled. Through research, the inventors found that, when the T 1 temperature is the same, the thickness of the iron oxide on the surface of the steel plate is also affected by a composition of a steel plate, with the Si content having the most significant influence. When the Si content in a steel plate is relatively high, a higher T 1 temperature is required to obtain the iron oxide with same thickness during the first-stage heating. An appropriate thickness of an oxide layer can be obtained when the T 1 temperature and the Si content of a steel plate satisfy the following relationship: 570 + 4000 × Si ≤ T 1 ≤ 600 + 9000 × Si. In some embodiments, T 1 is 580 °C - 800 °C. Preferably, the thickness of an oxide layer formed during the first-stage heating is 50-500 nm.
[0046] Further, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, a dew point of the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is ≥ -50°C, preferably ≥ -40°C. In some embodiments, a dew point of the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is between -50°C and 50°C. In some embodiments, a dew point of the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is between -50 °C and 0 °C.
[0047] Further, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, a dew point of the reducing atmosphere of the second-stage heating and soaking is ≤ 10 °C, such as ≤0 °C, ≤-10°C or ≤-20°C. In some embodiments, a dew point of the reducing atmosphere of the second-stage heating and soaking is 10 °C to -50 °C, such as 0 °C to -50 °C or -20 °C to -50 °C.
[0048] It should be particularly noted here that, in the present invention, a dew point of the atmosphere of the first-stage heating, the second-stage heating and soaking is not a necessary technical feature of this case. In other words, even without special control over the dew point of the atmosphere of the first-stage heating, the second-stage heating and soaking, a product characteristic of a mass percentage peak value of Mn Mn p ≤ 10.0% and a mass percentage peak value of Si Si p ≤ 4.0% on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate can be obtained. This is because, during the first-stage heating, when iron oxide is formed, some Mn in the matrix oxidizes along with Fe, but the oxides formed by Si are primarily located in the transition layer. During the second-stage heating and soaking, when the reduced iron is reduced, regardless of the atmosphere's dew point, the selective oxidation of alloying elements such as Mn and Si in the matrix is primarily concentrated below the ferrite formed after the iron oxide is reduced, i.e., in the transition layer, and does not enrich on the surface of ferrite. Therefore, the present invention differs from existing techniques, which promote the internal oxidation of alloy elements and reduce external oxidation by increasing the dew point of reducing atmosphere.
[0049] However, the inventors have found that increasing the dew point of the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is beneficial for lowering the T 1 temperature. This is because, increasing the dew point of the atmosphere during the first-stage heating will increase the internal oxidation of alloying elements, thereby reducing oxidation of alloying elements at the interface of iron oxide / substrate, especially the oxidation of Si element. Therefore, preferably, a dew point of the oxidizing atmosphere of the first-stage heating is controlled to be ≥ -40 °C. Since an excessively high dew point of the second-stage heating and soaking can lead to decarburization, preferably, a dew point of the atmosphere of the second-stage heating and soaking is controlled to be ≤ -20 °C.
[0050] Further, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, the reducing atmosphere of the second-stage heating and soaking is a mixture gas of N 2 and H 2 , wherein the volume percentage of H 2 is 0.5-20%.
[0051] Further, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, the heating rate of the second-stage heating is 1-20 °C / s, the second-stage heating is heated from T 1 to a soaking temperature of 720-920 °C, and a soaking time is 30-200 s.
[0052] The soaking temperature T 2 is controlled to be 720-920 °C, and the soaking time is controlled to be 30-200 s, mainly to obtain an appropriate mechanical property of a cold-rolled high-strength steel, which has little correlation with the phosphating performance.
[0053] The cold-rolled high-strength steel plate with excellent phosphating performance of the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention solves the problem of poor phosphating performance of cold-rolled high-strength steel by controlling the mass percentage peak values of Mn and Si and their depth positions on an element mass percentage content-depth distribution curve of a steel plate, thereby improving the coating performance of a cold-rolled high-strength steel.
[0054] In some more preferred embodiments, a steel plate with excellent phosphating performance also has a tensile strength of ≥ 780 MPa.Description of the Drawing

[0065] Figures 1, 2, and 3 respectively show the element mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate of Example A1 and Comparative Example A1. The characteristic values Mn p , Si p , Fe p , and t p are marked on the curves. t p in Figure 1 represents t pMn , t p in Figure 2 represents t pSi , and t p in Figure 3 represents t pSi .
[0066] As shown in Table 2, Example A1 undergoes the first-stage heating in an oxidizing atmosphere, while it is heated to 580 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C / s. The oxidizing atmosphere is a mixture gas of N 2 and O 2 , wherein a volume percentage of O 2 is 0.2%, and a dew point is -50 °C. Then the second-stage heating and soaking are carried out in a reducing atmosphere, wherein a heating rate is 4 °C / s, a soaking temperature is 820 °C, and a soaking time is 100 s. The reducing atmosphere in the second-stage heating and soaking is a mixture gas of N 2 and H 2 , wherein a volume percentage of H 2 is 2%, and a dew point of the atmosphere is -50 °C.
[0067] GDOES is used to detect the element depth distribution on a surface of an annealed steel plate, and the element mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm as shown in Figures 1 to 3 are obtained.
[0068] Comparative Example A1 undergoes the first-stage heating, the second-stage heating and soaking in a reducing atmosphere, with a heating rate, a temperature and a time all being the same as those of Example A1. The element mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from a surface of Comparative Example A1 after annealing are shown in Figures 1 to 3.
[0069] Example A1 and Comparative Example A1 are subjected to phosphating treatment under the same conditions. The phosphating film on the surface of Example A1 is uniform and dense, and the phosphating performance meets the requirements (in Table 2-2 indicated by "o"). However, the phosphating film on the surface of Comparative Example A1 is sparse, with a large area not covered by the phosphating film, and the phosphating performance does not meet the requirements (in Table 2-2 indicated by "×"). Herein, phosphating performance is judged by observing the phosphating film on the surface of the steel plate after phosphating treatment. A coverage rate of the phosphating film is 100%, a size of phosphating crystals is less than 12 microns, and a weight of the phosphating film is more than 2 g / m 2< , indicating that the phosphate performance meets the requirements. Phosphating treatment is carried out using commercially available treatment agents. The specific steps and processes are as follows: (1) pre-degreasing spray: 45-55 °C, 1 min; (2) degreasing spray: 45-55 °C, 2.0 min; (3) second water cleaning spray: room temperature, 1 min; (4) surface conditioning spray: room temperature, 1 min; (5) phosphating spray: 50-60 °C, 2.0 min; (6) water cleaning spray: room temperature, 1 min; (7) Drying.
[0070] Figures 4, 5, and 6 respectively show the mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe elements with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate of Example B1 and Comparative Example B1. The characteristic values Mn p , Si p , Fe p , and t p are marked on the curves. t p in Figure 4 represents t pMn , t p in Figure 5 represents t pSi , and t p in Figure 6 represents t pSi .
[0071] Example B1 undergoes the first-stage heating in an oxidizing atmosphere, while it is heated to 650°C at a heating rate of 50 °C / s. The oxidizing atmosphere is achieved by a direct-fired heating furnace, with an air-fuel ratio of 0.95 and a dew point of 50 °C. Then, the second-stage heating and soaking are carried out in a reducing atmosphere, wherein a heating rate is 5 °C / s, a soaking temperature is 870 °C, and a soaking time is 180 s. The atmosphere of the second-stage heating and soaking is a mixed gas of N 2 and H 2 , wherein a volume percentage of H 2 is 2%, and a dew point of the atmosphere is -40 °C.
[0072] GDOES is used to detect the element depth distribution on a surface of an annealed steel plate, and the element mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm as shown in Figures 4 to 6 are obtained. The sample of Example B1 is subjected to phosphating treatment, the phosphating film is uniform and dense, and the phosphating performance meets the requirements.
[0073] Comparative Example B1 undergoes the first-stage heating, the second-stage heating and soaking in a reducing atmosphere. The reducing atmosphere is a mixed gas of N 2 and H 2 , wherein a volume percentage of H 2 is 2% and a dew point of the atmosphere is -20 °C. The soaking temperature and soaking time are the same as those of Example B1. The element mass percentage content-depth distribution curves of Mn, Si, and Fe with a depth in the range of 0-1000 nm from the surface of the steel plate after annealing of Comparative Example B1 are shown in Figures 4-6. The sample of Comparative Example B1 is subjected to phosphating treatment, and the phosphating film is uneven and non-dense, with some local positions not covered by the phosphating film, thus the phosphating performance did not meet the requirements.

Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy samples of the surface layer and transition layer are prepared using a focused ion beam microscope.
