Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a steel sheet, a hot-formed part and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to a plated steel sheet, a hot-formed part and a manufacturing method thereof. [Background technology]
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the automobile industry, the market and users' requirements for automobiles are becoming higher and higher, and lightweighting is gradually becoming the future development trend of the automobile industry.
[0003] Currently, to meet the demand for lightweight automobiles, hot-formed steel is often used to prepare automobile structural parts and safety parts, and its usage in the market is increasing. However, the currently prepared non-plated hot-formed steel cannot meet user needs due to problems such as decarburization, oxide scale shot peening, poor dimensional accuracy, and corrosion resistance.
[0004] Therefore, in consideration of the above-mentioned drawbacks of non-plated hot-formed steel, researchers in this field have designed and developed hot-formed steel with an aluminum-silicon plated layer on its surface. The aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet designed in this way has been widely used in the field of hot-formed steel sheets due to the excellent heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature oxidation resistance of the aluminum-silicon plated layer itself.
[0005] Currently, domestic demand for such aluminum-silicon plated hot-formed steel is approximately 800,000 tons per year. However, the inventors have found that the aluminum-silicon plating layer applied to such aluminum-silicon plated hot-formed steel also has problems, large or small, such as roller sticking in the aluminum-silicon plating layer during the hot pressing process.
[0006] Regarding the roller sticking problem, current researchers usually solve this problem by optimizing the plating layer thickness, temperature rise curve, etc.
[0007] For example, in a Chinese patent document with publication number CN101910426A, publication date December 8, 2010, and title "Method for manufacturing a pressed product and pressed product manufactured thereby," the technical solution states that in order to improve roller adhesion of the coating layer, it is necessary to control the heating rate, and in particular, the heating rate from room temperature to 700°C is 4-12°C / s. Calculating in this way, the time required for a steel sheet to be heated from room temperature to 700°C is generally 1-3 minutes, but since the austenitizing temperature is above 840°C and a certain period of heat retention is required to complete the austenitizing, the time required for the substrate to complete the austenitizing from room temperature is generally 3-6 minutes.
[0008] For example, a Chinese patent document, publication number CN106164184A, published on November 23, 2016, and titled "Method for Producing Press-Hardened Coated Steel Parts with High Production Rate," discloses hot-pressed steel with a polymer layer, in which a polymer layer is added on top of the aluminum-silicon plating layer to improve the heating rate of the aluminum-silicon plating layer. However, the polymer layer is 2 to 30 micrometers thick, while the aluminum-silicon plating layer is generally 20 micrometers or thicker. Such thick polymer and plating layers pose significant challenges in production and coiling, and the polymer layer generates a large amount of decomposition products during subsequent heat treatment, which affects furnace atmosphere control and the surface quality of the product and leads to problems such as delayed cracking.
[0009] Furthermore, for example, a Chinese patent document with publication number CN109518114A, publication date March 26, 2019, and title "Method for manufacturing hot-pressed part with aluminum-silicon alloy plating layer and hot-pressed part" discloses a method for manufacturing a hot-pressed part, but mentions using a step-by-step heating method to improve roller adhesion of the plating layer, but the effect is limited. Although this may take more time, especially for thick-gauge products, there is an ever-increasing demand for thick-gauge hot-formed steel products, and there is clear demand for them, especially for new energy battery packs and bumpers.
[0010] Therefore, considering that the currently proposed solutions in the prior art patents do not adequately solve this problem, the present inventors believe that it is of great practical significance to research means for improving the heating efficiency of hot-formed steel products while resolving the problem of roller sticking of the coating layer. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0011] An object of the present invention is to provide an aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet having a coating, which can be effectively used in preparing hot-formed products, not only effectively solving the problem of roller sticking of the aluminum-silicon plating layer, but also effectively improving the heating efficiency in preparing hot-formed products, and has good prospects for general application and practical application. [Means for solving the problem]
[0012] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a steel substrate and an aluminum-silicon plating layer plated on the surface of the steel substrate, wherein the surface of the aluminum-silicon plating layer is further covered with a coating, the coating containing C, H, O, N, and Si elements but not P element, and the Si element content in the coating is 10-1000 mg / m 2 The present invention provides an aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet having a coating comprising:
[0013] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the coating on the surface of the aluminum-silicon plating layer contains Si element but does not contain P element, which tends to remain on the surface and may affect the subsequent coating solution.
[0014] Accordingly, in the coating designed according to the present invention, the main function of adding an appropriate amount of Si element is to increase the adhesion of the coating and prevent it from remaining on the surface. It should be noted that if the Si element content in the coating is too low, the beneficial effects of Si element cannot be exerted, but if the Si element content in the coating is too high, it is likely to remain on the surface. Therefore, in the present invention, the Si element content in the coating must be strictly controlled, specifically, the Si element content in the coating must be 10-1000 mg / m 2 In some embodiments, the Si element content in the coating is controlled to 200 to 1000 mg / m 2 The Si element content in the coating is controlled to 200 to 500 mg / m 2 Control to.

[0068] (2) Compared with conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets, various heating methods can be employed in preparing the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet designed according to the present invention, and it is particularly suitable for a rapid heating mode, especially a mode of rapid initial temperature increase, and even in such a mode, it is still possible to ensure that the aluminum-silicon plated layer remains intact and does not stick to the roller.
[0069] (3) Compared with conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets, when the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets of the present invention are used to prepare hot-formed parts, the total residence time of the steel sheets in the heat treatment furnace can be reduced by adopting a rapid heating mode.
[0070] It should be noted that the core improvement of this technical solution of the present invention lies in the design of a novel coating with a different heat reflection coefficient that contributes to better heat absorption, thereby achieving a rapid increase in the temperature of the steel sheet, thus avoiding melting of the aluminum-silicon plating layer on the surface of the steel substrate and effectively reducing roller sticking.

The hot-formed parts prepared from the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet through heat treatment have a more uniform and consistent appearance color, with no obvious color difference.
[0072] Furthermore, the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet designed according to the present invention has a thin coating thickness, and when transported into a heat treatment furnace, it generates only a small amount of gas upon decomposition, resulting in little effect on the dew point inside the furnace.
[0073] The aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet according to the present invention can reduce melting of the aluminum-silicon plating layer during the heating process, thereby reducing the reaction between the molten aluminum and water vapor in the furnace and the generation of hydrogen atoms, thereby reducing the hydrogen content in parts and the risk of delayed cracking due to hydrogen.

[0087] [Table 2]
[0088] To explain in detail each parameter of the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to Examples 1 to 6 prepared in the present invention, the inventors further show the basic parameters of the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 in Table 3 below.
[0089] Table 3 shows the basic parameters of the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 prepared in the present invention.
[0090] [Table 3]
[0091] When the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to Examples 1 to 6 were actually prepared, a specific plating solution had to be used in the hot-dip plating process to form an "aluminum-silicon plating layer" on the surface of the steel substrate. Similarly, after the aluminum-silicon plating layer was formed, a paint had to be applied to the surface of the aluminum-silicon plating layer to form a coating. As can be seen from this, when the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to each Example were actually prepared, the design of the chemical composition of the plating solution and the chemical composition of the paint used were also very important, and the results of the design of the chemical composition of the relevant plating solution and paint are shown in Tables 4-1 and 4-2 below, respectively.
[0092] The chemical composition designs of the plating solutions and plating layers in Examples 1 to 6 are shown in Table 4-1.
[0093] [Table 4-1]
[0094] The chemical composition designs of the paints used in Examples 1 to 6 are shown in Table 4-2.
[0095] [Table 4-2]
[0096] The coating was formed by applying the paint in Table 4-2 to the surface of the aluminum-silicon plating layer. The N element in the coating was derived from the resin in the paint, and the C, H, O, and N elements in the coating were derived from the resin, solvent, and silane coupling agent in the paint. The coating in this application did not contain the P element. In this technical solution, the Si element content in the coating was adjusted to 10-1000 mg / m through the ratio and content of the silane coupling agent. 2 was controlled.
[0097] It should be noted that although a single carbon material was used as the carbon material in Examples 1 to 6 above, in other embodiments, graphite, graphene, and activated carbon may be used in combination.
[0098] In the present invention, the hot-formed parts according to Examples 1 to 6 were all prepared by the following steps: (1) A process for producing an aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet in which a coating is applied to the surface of the corresponding aluminum-silicon plating layer through steelmaking, hot rolling, cold rolling, hot dip galvanizing, leveling, and application of paint to form a corresponding coating according to the mass percentage ratio of each chemical element shown in Table 1 above.
[0099] (2) According to the required part shape, the correspondingly prepared aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet was cut into blanks.
[0100] (3) The obtained blank was transported into a heat treatment furnace and heat-treated in the furnace: the processed blank was placed in a heat treatment furnace, and the heating rate of the blank from room temperature to 700°C was controlled at 8 to 30°C / s, and the heating rate above 700°C was controlled at 1 to 10°C / s; however, the set temperature of the heat treatment furnace was 700 to 1000°C, and the temperature could be increased stepwise, increased or decreased, or at one or more temperatures, with the maximum temperature being 900 to 1000°C, and the total residence time of the blank in the heat treatment furnace was controlled to 1 to 15 min.
[0101] (4) The blank was transferred to a mold and hot pressed or roller pressed: the temperature of the blank transferred to the mold was controlled to 650°C or higher, and the blank was cooled simultaneously with the forming. The cooling rate of the blank in the mold from 800°C to 300°C was controlled to 25°C / s or higher, and the press speed from the start of contact between the mold and blank to the blank forming was controlled to 40 to 100 mm / s.
[0102] It should be noted that in the present invention, the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets, hot-formed parts and related manufacturing processes according to the designed Examples 1 to 6 all met the design requirements of the present invention.
[0103] The relevant process parameters for the manufacturing methods of the hot-formed parts according to Examples 1 to 6 are shown in Table 5.
[0104] [Table 5]
[0105] It should be noted that in the above Table 4 of the present invention, the heat treatment temperatures of the heat treatment process in step (2) of Examples 1 to 6 are not single-point values but are all range values. This is because a heat treatment furnace is usually controlled in stages, and the temperature of each stage may be controlled independently or differently, and the temperature range described in the present invention is the distribution range of all temperatures of each stage.
[0106] In the above technical solutions of the present invention, the inventors specifically observed and studied whether or not the phenomenon of "roller sticking of the coating layer" occurred when hot-formed parts were prepared from the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to each Example and Comparative Example. If the phenomenon of "roller sticking of the coating layer" occurred, it was recorded as "Yes," and if the phenomenon of "roller sticking of the coating layer" did not occur, it was recorded as "No." The relevant observation results are shown in Table 6 below.
[0107] [Table 6]
[0108] As can be seen from Table 6 above, when hot-formed parts were prepared from the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets having the coatings according to Examples 1 to 6 obtained according to the design of the present invention, the phenomenon of "roller sticking of the coating layer" did not occur in any of them. In contrast, when hot-formed parts were prepared from the comparative aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet prepared in Comparative Example 1, the phenomenon of "roller sticking of the coating layer" occurred.
[0109] Accordingly, based on the finished hot-formed parts finally prepared from the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheets according to each example and comparative example, samples were taken from the finished hot-formed parts prepared in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1, respectively, and the microstructures of the parts according to each example and comparative example were metallographically prepared, polished, hub-cut and etched, and then detected by metallographic microscope, and the relevant detection results are shown in Table 7 below.
[0110] [Table 7]
[0111] As can be seen from Table 7 above, in the present invention, the microstructure of the finished hot-formed parts prepared according to Examples 1 to 6 has at least one of martensite, bainite, and ferrite.
[0112] FIG. 1 conceptually shows a conceptual diagram of temperature rise curves when an aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet according to the present invention and a conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet are heated to 900° C. in a heat treatment furnace.
[0113] As shown in FIG. 1, the "solid line" shown in FIG. 1 represents the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet according to the present invention, and the "dashed line" shown in FIG. 1 represents the conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet.
[0114] In this test shown in Figure 1, the thickness of both the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet of the present invention and the conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet was specifically 2.0 mm. As can be easily seen from the comparison, the temperature rise rate of the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet of the present invention, particularly the temperature rise rate from room temperature to 700°C, was significantly higher than that of the conventional aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet.
[0115] FIG. 2 is a photograph of the surface profile of the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet according to Example 1 after undergoing heat treatment.
[0116] As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment of Example 1 designed according to the present invention, the aluminum-silicon plated steel sheet according to the present invention had an uneven and irregular profile on its surface after undergoing the heat treatment process in step (2) of the manufacturing method of the present invention.
