Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hot-rolled steel sheet. Specifically, the present invention relates to a hot-rolled steel sheet that is used by being formed into various shapes by press working or the like, and in particular to a hot-rolled steel sheet that has high strength and excellent shear workability. This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-146231, filed on September 8, 2021, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, from the viewpoint of protecting the global environment, efforts are being made in many fields to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Automobile manufacturers are also actively developing technologies to reduce the weight of vehicles in order to improve fuel efficiency. However, reducing the weight of vehicles is not an easy task, as emphasis is also placed on improving crashworthiness to ensure the safety of passengers.

[0003] In order to achieve both weight reduction and crashworthiness of the vehicle body, the use of high-strength steel plates to make components thinner has been considered. For this reason, there is a strong demand for steel plates that combine high strength with excellent formability, and several technologies have been proposed to meet these demands. Automotive components are formed by press molding, and blank plates for press molding are often manufactured by shear processing, which has high productivity. Blank plates manufactured by shear processing must have excellent end surface accuracy after shear processing. For example, if the surface roughness of the fracture surface after shear processing increases, fatigue properties and bendability decrease.

[0004] Regarding shear workability, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technology for controlling the burr height after punching by controlling the ratio ds / db of the surface ferrite grain size ds to the internal ferrite crystal grains db to 0.95 or less. Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for improving peeling and curling at the sheet end surface by reducing the P content. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 10-168544 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-298924 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] However, Patent Document 1 targets IF steel, and it may be difficult to apply it to high-strength components of 980 MPa or more. Patent Document 2 also does not achieve a strength of 980 MPa or more, and does not consider the roughness of the fracture surface at the sheared edge after shear processing.

[0007] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above problems of the conventional technology, and has an object to provide a hot-rolled steel sheet having high strength and excellent shear workability. In the present invention, "having excellent shear workability" means that the surface roughness Rz of the fracture surface at the sheared end surface after shear work is 30.0 μm or less, and "having high strength" means that the tensile strength is 980 MPa or more. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have conducted extensive research into the chemical composition and metal structure of a hot-rolled steel sheet and the relationship between the chemical composition and metal structure and the mechanical properties thereof, and have obtained the following findings (a) to (d) and completed the present invention.

[0009] (a) In order to reduce the surface roughness of the fracture surface at the shear edge, it is necessary to limit the area fraction of ferrite, which has high work hardening capacity, and pearlite, which causes the formation of coarse voids.

[0010] (b) In order to reduce the surface roughness of the fracture surface at the sheared edge, it is important to have a metal structure with a certain amount of coarse Ti-based carbides and a small crystal grain size. The reason for this is that the coarse Ti-based carbides are thought to be carbides precipitated in the austenite structure during hot rolling. These coarse Ti-based carbides are incoherent with the parent phase after transformation at low temperatures. Therefore, it is speculated that the dispersion and precipitation of these coarse and incoherent Ti-based carbides disperses the voids generated during shear deformation, and together with the refinement of the crystal grains, the surface roughness of the fracture surface is reduced.

[0011] (c) In order to make the incoherent and coarse Ti-based carbides exist to a certain extent, the hot rolling process in the high temperature range is important. For example, it is effective to perform hot rolling with a total reduction rate of 70% or more in the temperature range of 1100°C to SRT (°C).

[0012] (d) In order to reduce the grain size of the metal structure, in addition to increasing the total reduction in the high temperature range described above, it is also important to increase the reduction in the hot rolling in the low temperature range. For example, it is effective to perform hot rolling with a total reduction of 80% or more in the temperature range from below 1100°C to finishing rolling. The pinning effect of the coarse Ti-based carbides precipitated in the high temperature range refines the austenite structure, and in combination with the subsequent cooling conditions, it is possible to create a structure with a small grain size.

[0013] The gist of the present invention made based on the above findings is as follows. [1] A hot-rolled steel sheet according to one embodiment of the present invention has, by mass%, C: 0.050-0.200%, Si: 0.005-2.000%, Mn: 0.50-4.00%, P: 0.100% or less, S: 0.0100% or less, sol.Al: 0.001-1.00%, Ti: 0.150-0.400%, N: 0.0010-0.0200%, Nb: 0-0.200%, V: 0-1.000%, Mo: 0-1.000%, Cu: 0-1.00%, Ni: 0-1.00%, and Cr: 0-2. a chemical composition consisting of 0.00%, W: 0-1.00%, B: 0-0.0040%, Ca: 0-0.0100%, Mg: 0-0.0100%, REM: 0-0.0100%, Bi: 0-0.0200%, and the balance: Fe and impurities; and when a region from the surface to 1 / 8 to 3 / 8 of the sheet thickness in the sheet thickness direction is defined as a 1 / 4 depth position, the metal structure at the 1 / 4 depth position contains, in area fractions, retained austenite: less than 3.0%, ferrite: less than 30.0%, and pearlite: less than 5.0%, The remaining structure is composed of one or more of bainite, martensite, and tempered martensite, At the 1 / 4 depth position, the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more is 1.0 × 10 4 pieces / mm 2 or more, the average crystal grain size dq is 15.0 μm or less, and the tensile strength is 980 MPa or more. [2] In the hot-rolled steel sheet described in [1], when a region from the surface to 50 μm in the sheet thickness direction from the surface is defined as a surface layer portion, a ratio ds / dq of an average grain size ds of the surface layer portion to the average grain size dq at the 1 / 4 depth position may be 0.95 or less. [3] The hot-rolled steel sheet according to [1] or [2] may have a chemical composition, in mass%, of one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Nb: 0.001-0.200%, V: 0.005-1.000%, Mo: 0.001-1.000%, Cu: 0.02-1.00%, Ni: 0.02-1.00%, Cr: 0.02-2.00%, W: 0.020-1.00%, B: 0.0001-0.0040%, Ca: 0.0002-0.0100%, Mg: 0.0002-0.0100%, REM: 0.0002-0.0100%, and Bi: 0.0002-0.0200%.

The characteristics of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment (hereinafter, sometimes simply referred to as steel sheet) will be described in more detail below. However, the present invention is not limited to the configuration disclosed in this embodiment, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the present invention. The numerical ranges described below with "to" include the lower limit and the upper limit. The numerical values ​​indicated as "less than" or "greater than" are not included in the numerical range.

[0017] [Chemical composition] First, the chemical composition of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment will be described. In the following description, % regarding the chemical composition of the steel sheet is mass % unless otherwise specified.

[0018] (C:0.050~0.200%) C is an element that increases the fraction of the hard phase and increases the strength of ferrite by combining with precipitation strengthening elements such as Ti, Nb, and V. If the C content is less than 0.050%, it is difficult to obtain the desired strength. Therefore, the C content is set to 0.050% or more. The C content is preferably 0.060% or more, more preferably 0.070% or more, and even more preferably 0.080% or more. On the other hand, if the C content exceeds 0.200%, the weldability of the hot-rolled steel sheet decreases. Therefore, the C content is set to 0.200% or less. The C content is preferably 0.150% or less.

[0019] (Si: 0.005 to 2.000%) Silicon is an element that acts to increase the strength of hot-rolled steel sheets by solid solution strengthening. Silicon also acts to improve the soundness of steel by deoxidization (suppressing the occurrence of defects such as blowholes in steel). If the Si content is less than 0.005%, the above effects cannot be obtained. Therefore, the Si content is set to 0.005% or more. The Si content is preferably 0.010% or more. On the other hand, Si is an element that deteriorates the surface properties and chemical conversion treatability of hot-rolled steel sheets, and also has the effect of promoting the formation of retained austenite by suppressing the precipitation of cementite from austenite. If the Si content exceeds 2.000%, retained austenite is formed, and the surface roughness of the fracture surface deteriorates. Therefore, the Si content is set to 2.000% or less. The Si content is preferably 1.500% or less, and more preferably 1.300% or less.

[0020] (Mn: 0.50~4.00%) Mn is an element that has the effect of suppressing ferrite transformation and increasing the strength of a hot-rolled steel sheet. If the Mn content is less than 0.50%, a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more cannot be obtained. Therefore, the Mn content is set to 0.50% or more. The Mn content is preferably 0.80% or more, and more preferably 1.00% or more. In addition, when the area fraction of ferrite is reduced, the Mn content is even more preferably 1.40% or more, and further preferably 1.50% or more. On the other hand, if the Mn content exceeds 4.00%, cracks occur near the center of the sheet thickness due to central segregation of Mn, and the surface roughness of the sheared end surface after shearing deteriorates. Therefore, the Mn content is set to 4.00% or less. The Mn content is preferably 3.50% or less, and more preferably 3.00% or less.

[0021] (P:0.100% or less) P is an element that is generally contained as an impurity. P is an element that easily segregates, and if the P content exceeds 0.100%, the bending workability decreases due to grain boundary segregation. Therefore, the P content is set to 0.100% or less. The P content is preferably 0.030% or less. Although there is no particular need to specify a lower limit for the P content, it is preferable to set the P content to 0.001% or more from the viewpoint of refining costs. In addition, P is also an element that has the effect of increasing the strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet by solid solution strengthening. Therefore, P may be intentionally added. In that case, the P content may be set to 0.002% or more.

[0022] (S:0.0100% or less) S is an element contained as an impurity, and forms sulfide-based inclusions in steel, which reduces the bending workability of hot-rolled steel sheets. If the S content exceeds 0.0100%, the bending workability of hot-rolled steel sheets is significantly reduced. Therefore, the S content is set to 0.0100% or less. The S content is preferably 0.0050% or less. There is no particular need to specify a lower limit for the S content, but from the viewpoint of refining costs, it is preferable to set the S content to 0.0001% or more.

[0023] (sol.Al:0.001~1.00%) Like Si, Al is an element that has the effect of deoxidizing steel and improving its soundness. If the sol. Al content is less than 0.001%, the above-mentioned effect cannot be obtained. Therefore, the sol. Al content is set to 0.001% or more. The sol. Al content is preferably 0.01% or more. On the other hand, if the sol.Al content exceeds 1.00%, the above effects are saturated and it is economically undesirable. Therefore, the sol.Al content is set to 1.00% or less. The sol.Al content is preferably 0.80% or less, and more preferably 0.60% or less. Sol. Al means acid-soluble Al, which indicates Al that is present in steel in a solid solution state.

[0024] (Ti: 0.150~0.400%) Ti is an element that reduces the surface roughness of the fracture surface at the sheared end surface by precipitating as coarse Ti-based carbides in the high temperature region of hot rolling. It is also an element that suppresses the recovery, recrystallization and grain growth of the austenite structure and refines the metal structure after transformation. Furthermore, Ti is an element that precipitates as fine Ti-based carbides even during cooling after hot rolling (after the completion of finish rolling) and improves the strength of the steel by precipitation strengthening. If the Ti content is less than 0.150%, the driving force for precipitating Ti-based carbides in the high temperature region of hot rolling is small, and the desired number density of Ti-based carbides cannot be obtained. Therefore, the Ti content is set to 0.150% or more. The Ti content is preferably 0.170% or more, more preferably 0.190% or more, and even more preferably 0.210% or more. On the other hand, if Ti exceeds 0.400%, rectangular and coarse nitrides with a major axis of several μm are formed, which reduces bending workability. Therefore, the Ti content is set to 0.400% or less. The Ti content is preferably 0.350% or less, and more preferably 0.300% or less. The Ti-based carbide refers to a carbide having a NaCl-type crystal structure containing Ti. If such a carbide contains Ti, it also includes those containing small amounts of other carbide-forming alloy elements, such as Mo, Nb, V, Cr, and W, within the range of the chemical composition specified in this embodiment. It also includes carbonitrides in which part of the carbon is replaced with nitrogen.

[0025] (N:0.0010~0.0200%) N is an element that forms nitrides or carbonitrides with Ti, Nb, V, etc., and suppresses the coarsening of austenite during slab heating, thereby refining the metal structure. If the N content is less than 0.0010%, it becomes difficult to exert the above-mentioned effect. Therefore, the N content is set to 0.0010% or more. The N content is preferably 0.0015% or more. On the other hand, if the N content exceeds 0.0200%, coarse Ti nitrides are formed, which reduces bending workability. Therefore, the N content is set to 0.0200% or less. The N content is preferably 0.0150% or less, more preferably 0.0100% or less, and even more preferably 0.0060% or less.

[0039] The chemical composition of the above-mentioned hot-rolled steel sheet may be measured by a general analytical method. For example, it may be measured using ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry). Sol. Al may be measured by ICP-AES using the filtrate after thermally decomposing the sample with acid. C and S may be measured by the combustion-infrared absorption method, and N may be measured by the inert gas fusion-thermal conductivity method.

[0040] [Metal structure] Next, the metal structure of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment will be described. In the heat-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, when the region from the surface to 1 / 8 to 3 / 8 of the sheet thickness is defined as the 1 / 4 depth position, the metal structure at the 1 / 4 depth position contains, in terms of area fraction, less than 30.0% ferrite, less than 3.0% retained austenite, and less than 5.0% pearlite. In addition, in the heat-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, in the metal structure at the 1 / 4 depth position, the average crystal grain size is 15.0 μm or less, and the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more is 1.0×10 4 pieces / mm 2 More than (10000 pieces / mm 2 (1.0×10 4 pieces / mm 2 (Ti-based carbides of 15 nm or more precipitate at an average number density of 15 nm or more.) The reason for specifying the metal structure in the region from the surface of the steel plate to 1 / 8 to 3 / 8 of the plate thickness (1 / 4 depth position) is that the metal structure in this position shows a typical metal structure of the steel plate.

[0041] (Ferrite area fraction: less than 30.0%) Ferrite is a structure that is generated when fcc transforms to bcc at a relatively high temperature. Since ferrite has a high work hardening ability, if the area fraction of ferrite is too high, the deformation amount of the fracture surface at the sheared edge increases, and the roughness of the fracture surface increases. Therefore, the area fraction of ferrite is less than 30.0%. The area fraction of ferrite is preferably 20.0% or less, more preferably 10.0% or less, and even more preferably 8.0% or less. The smaller the area fraction of ferrite, the more preferable it is, and it may be 0%, but in consideration of productivity, the area fraction of ferrite may be 1.0% or more, 2.0% or more, or 3.0% or more.

[0042] (Area fraction of retained austenite: less than 3.0%) In the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, if the area fraction of the retained austenite is too high, the surface roughness of the fracture surface at the sheared end surface may increase. This is presumably because the retained austenite forms coarse voids. In particular, if the area fraction of the retained austenite is 3.0% or more, the shear workability of the hot-rolled steel sheet deteriorates and the surface roughness of the fracture surface increases. Therefore, the area fraction of the retained austenite is less than 3.0%. The area fraction of the retained austenite is preferably less than 1.5%, more preferably less than 1.0%. Since the smaller the amount of retained austenite, the area fraction of the retained austenite may be 0%.

[0043] (area fraction of pearlite: less than 5.0%) Pearlite is a lamellar metal structure in which cementite is precipitated in layers between ferrite. Pearlite is also a soft metal structure compared to bainite and martensite. If the area fraction of pearlite is 5.0% or more, carbon is consumed by the cementite contained in pearlite, and the strength of the remaining structures, martensite, tempered martensite, and bainite, decreases, making it impossible to obtain a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more. Therefore, the area fraction of pearlite is less than 5.0%. The area fraction of pearlite is preferably 3.0% or less, more preferably 2.0%, even more preferably 1.0% or less, or may be 0%.

[0044] In order to ensure a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more, the hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment preferably has a residual structure other than the retained austenite, ferrite, and pearlite, which is a hard structure, consisting of one or more of bainite, martensite, and tempered martensite. The area fraction of one or more of bainite, martensite, and tempered martensite is preferably 70.0% or more, more preferably 80.0% or more, and even more preferably 90.0% or more.

[0045] The area fraction of each structure that constitutes the metal structure is measured by the following method. A plate thickness cross section parallel to the rolling direction is mirror-finished and polished for 8 minutes at room temperature using colloidal silica that does not contain an alkaline solution to remove strain introduced into the surface layer of the sample. At any position in the longitudinal direction of the sample cross section, a region 50 μm long and from 1 / 8 of the plate thickness depth from the surface to 3 / 8 of the plate thickness depth from the surface is measured at measurement intervals of 0.1 μm using electron backscatter diffraction to obtain crystal orientation information. For the measurement, an EBSD device consisting of a thermal field emission scanning electron microscope (JEOL JSM-7001F) and an EBSD detector (TSL DVC5 detector) is used. The degree of vacuum inside the EBSD device was 9.6×10 -5 The EBSD spectrometer is equipped with a 300 MHz EBSD spectrometer, ...

[0046] Next, within the remaining region (region with a grain average misorientation value of more than 1.0°), a boundary of 5° or more is defined as a grain boundary. When the maximum value of the "Grain Average IQ" of the ferrite region is Iα, the region exceeding Iα / 2 is extracted as bainite, and the region below Iα / 2 is extracted as "pearlite, martensite, and tempered martensite." The area fraction of bainite is obtained by calculating the area fraction of the extracted bainite. In addition, the area fraction of the extracted "pearlite, martensite, and tempered martensite" is calculated, and the total area fraction of martensite and tempered martensite is obtained by subtracting the area fraction of pearlite obtained by the above-mentioned EBSD analysis.

[0047] Methods for measuring the area fraction of retained austenite include X-ray diffraction, EBSD (Electron Back Scattering Diffraction Pattern) analysis, magnetic measurement, etc., and the measured value may differ depending on the measurement method. In this embodiment, the area fraction of retained austenite is measured by X-ray diffraction. In the measurement of the area fraction of retained austenite by X-ray diffraction in this embodiment, the area fraction of retained austenite is obtained by obtaining the integrated intensities of a total of six peaks, α(110), α(200), α(211), γ(111), γ(200), and γ(220), using Co-Kα radiation at the 1 / 4 depth position of the hot-rolled steel sheet (the region from 1 / 8 depth of the sheet thickness from the surface to 3 / 8 depth of the sheet thickness from the surface), and calculating the area fraction of retained austenite using the intensity averaging method.

[0048] (The average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more is 1.0 × 10 4 pieces / mm 2 End) In the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, coarse Ti-based carbides having a major axis of 15 nm or more are precipitated. Due to the presence of these coarse Ti-based carbides and the refinement of the average crystal grain size described below, voids generated during fracture in shear processing are dispersed, and the surface roughness of the fracture surface at the sheared end surface is reduced. To achieve this, the average number density of Ti-based carbides having a major axis of 15 nm or more is set to 1.0×10 4 (10000) pieces / mm 2 The average number density of Ti-based carbides having a major axis of 15 nm or more is preferably 2.0×10 4 pieces / mm 2 More preferably, 4.0×10 4 pieces / mm 2 The higher the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more, the better. However, the fine Ti-based carbides that precipitate during cooling after hot rolling and the amount of solute C necessary for strengthening bainite and martensite may decrease, causing a decrease in strength. Therefore, the average number density of 5.0×10 6 pieces / mm 2 Here, the Ti-based carbide refers to a carbide having a NaCl-type crystal structure containing Ti. If such a carbide contains Ti, it may contain a small amount of other carbide-forming alloy elements. Within the range of the chemical composition specified in this embodiment, the Ti-based carbide may contain other carbide-forming alloy elements, such as Mo, Nb, V, Cr, and W. Furthermore, the Ti-based carbide may be a carbonitride in which part of the carbon is replaced with nitrogen.

[0049] The average number density of Ti-based carbides was determined by photographing 20 fields of view, with a TEM at 50,000x magnification at the 1 / 4 depth position, with each field of view being an area of ​​2.0μm x 2.0μm, and analyzing the precipitates observed within the fields of view with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Precipitates in which Ti and C were detected were determined to be Ti-based carbides, and the major axis (longest diameter) of each precipitate (Ti-based carbide) was measured. 2 The number of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more per unit area is counted to determine the number density.

[0050] (Average grain size: 15.0μm or less) In the metal structure, if the average crystal grain size is coarse, the roughness of the fracture surface of the sheared edge increases. Therefore, the average crystal grain size (dq) at the 1 / 4 depth position is set to 15.0 μm or less. The average crystal grain size is preferably 12.0 μm or less, and more preferably 10.0 μm or less. The smaller the average crystal grain size, the better, so there is no particular lower limit. However, in normal hot rolling, it is technically difficult to refine the average crystal grain size to below 1.0 μm. Therefore, the average crystal grain size may be 1.0 μm or more, or 4.0 μm or more.

[0051] (Preferably, the ratio of the average crystal grain size ds of the surface layer to the average crystal grain size dq at the 1 / 4 depth position, ds / dq, is 0.95 or less.) The higher the strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet, the more likely it is that cracks will occur from the inside during bending (hereinafter referred to as "inner bending cracks"). In particular, in the case of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, which has a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more, inner bending cracks are likely to occur. The mechanism of cracking on the inside of the bend is believed to be as follows. In other words, during bending, compressive stress is generated on the inside of the bend. At first, the entire inside of the bend deforms uniformly as the bending progresses, but as the amount of bending increases, the uniform deformation alone is no longer able to support the deformation, and deformation progresses as strain concentrates locally (the generation of shear deformation bands). As these shear deformation bands continue to grow, cracks initiate and grow from the inside surface of the bend along the shear bands. The reason why internal cracks become more likely to occur as strength increases is believed to be that the decrease in work hardening ability associated with high strength causes uneven deformation, resulting in the formation of shear deformation bands early in processing (or under loose processing conditions).

[0052] The present inventors have studied a method for suppressing internal cracks in bending in high-strength steel sheets. As a result, they have found that the finer the crystal grain size in the surface layer of the hot-rolled steel sheet, the more localized strain concentration is suppressed, and the less likely internal cracks are to occur in bending. More specifically, when the surface layer is a region from the surface to 50 μm in the sheet thickness direction from the surface (a region from the surface to 50 μm in the sheet thickness direction from the surface), they have found that internal cracks in bending are suppressed by setting ds / dq, which is the ratio of the average crystal grain size ds in the surface layer of the hot-rolled steel sheet to the average crystal grain size dq at the 1 / 4 depth position, to 0.95 or less. Therefore, when obtaining a hot-rolled steel sheet having excellent bendability (suppressing internal cracks in bending during bending) in addition to high strength and excellent shear workability, it is preferable to set ds / dq to 0.95 or less. ds / dq is more preferably 0.90 or less, and even more preferably 0.85 or less. The lower limit of ds / dq is not particularly specified, but it may be 0.50 or more.

[0053] The average grain size at the surface layer and the 1 / 4 depth position are measured by analyzing using EBSD at a magnification of 1200 times in at least five fields of view, each of which is a 40 μm × 30 μm area, in the surface layer (area from the surface to a depth of 50 μm from the surface) and the 1 / 4 depth position (area from 1 / 8 of the sheet thickness from the surface to 3 / 8 of the sheet thickness from the surface) of the hot-rolled steel sheet in the thickness cross section parallel to the rolling direction of the hot-rolled steel sheet. Regarding the measurement, the area where the angle difference between adjacent measurement points is 15° or more and the circle equivalent diameter is 0.3 μm or more is defined as a grain boundary, and the area average grain size is calculated. The area average grain size obtained at each measurement position is the average grain size of the surface layer and the average grain size at the 1 / 4 depth position.

[0054] <Mechanical properties> (Tensile strength: 980MPa or more) The hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment has a tensile (maximum) strength of 980 MPa or more. If the tensile strength is less than 980 MPa, the applicable parts are limited, and the contribution to reducing the weight of the vehicle body is small. The tensile strength is preferably 1000 MPa or more, more preferably 1080 MPa or more, and even more preferably 1180 MPa or more. There is no particular need to set the upper limit, but from the viewpoint of suppressing die wear, the tensile strength may be 1780 MPa or less.

[0055] The tensile strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet is evaluated in accordance with JIS Z 2241: 2011. The test piece is JIS Z 2241: 2011 No. 5 test piece, and the test direction is perpendicular to the rolling direction.

[0056] The thickness of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment is not particularly limited, but may be 1.2 to 10.0 mm. If the thickness of the hot-rolled steel sheet is less than 1.2 mm, it may be difficult to ensure the rolling completion temperature and the rolling load may become excessive, making hot rolling difficult. Therefore, the thickness of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment may be 1.2 mm or more. More preferably, it is 1.4 mm or more. On the other hand, if the thickness exceeds 10.0 mm, it may be difficult to refine the metal structure, and it may be difficult to obtain the above-mentioned metal structure. Therefore, the thickness may be 10.0 mm or less. More preferably, it is 8.0 mm or less. Even more preferably, it is 6.0 mm or less.

[0057] <Manufacturing conditions> The method for producing the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment is not particularly limited, but the hot-rolled steel sheet can be obtained by a production method including the following steps. (I) A heating process in which a slab or piece of steel having a given chemical composition is heated. (II) A hot rolling step in which the slab or the steel billet after the heating step is subjected to multi-pass hot rolling using a plurality of rolling stands to obtain a hot-rolled steel sheet. (III) A winding step of winding the hot-rolled steel sheet. Preferred conditions for each step will be described below.

[0058] [Heating process] (Heating temperature: over 1300℃ and above SRT(℃)) The heating temperature of the slab or steel slab to be subjected to hot rolling is set to be more than 1300°C and equal to or higher than the temperature SRT (°C) represented by the following formula (1). In normal hot rolling, it is considered undesirable to heat to a temperature of more than 1300°C because of the yield reduction caused by the mass loss of iron due to oxides in the heating furnace and the generation of surface defects due to melting of scale. However, in order to obtain the coarse Ti-based carbides with the desired number density possessed by the hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment, it is necessary to sufficiently solutionize the Ti-based carbides in the heating process. Therefore, the temperature of the slab or steel slab to be subjected to hot rolling is set to be more than 1300°C and equal to or higher than SRT (°C). Here, "the temperature of the slab or steel piece is higher than 1300°C and equal to or higher than SRT (°C)" means that the temperature of the slab or steel piece is higher than the higher of 1300°C and SRT (°C), or when SRT (°C) is higher than 1300°C, the SRT and the temperature of the slab or steel piece are the same. On the other hand, if the heating temperature exceeds 1400° C., thick scale may be formed, resulting in a decrease in yield and significant damage to the heating furnace, so the heating temperature is preferably 1400° C. or lower. SRT(℃)=1630+90×ln([C]×[Ti])…(1) In the above formula (1), the [element symbol] indicates the content of each element in the slab or steel piece in mass%, and ln is the natural logarithm. The slab or billet to be heated may be one obtained by continuous casting or casting / blooming, or may be one that has been subjected to hot or cold working. The chemical composition of the slab or billet does not change substantially during the manufacturing process, so it should be the same as the chemical composition of the hot-rolled steel sheet to be obtained.

[0059] [Hot rolling process] In the hot rolling process, a heated slab or steel billet is subjected to multi-pass hot rolling using multiple rolling stands to produce a hot-rolled steel sheet. Multi-pass hot rolling can be performed using a reverse mill or a tandem mill, but from the viewpoint of industrial productivity, it is preferable to use a tandem mill for at least the final several stages.

[0060] (Total reduction rate in the temperature range of 1100℃ to SRT(℃): 70% or more) In the manufacturing method of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, the total reduction of the hot rolling in the temperature range of 1100°C or more and SRT (°C) or less is increased to refine the recrystallized austenite and to cause processing-induced precipitation of coarse Ti-based carbides having a major axis of 15 nm or more in a short time during the limited time during rolling. If the total reduction in this temperature range is low, it is difficult to obtain a fine structure or desired Ti-based carbides. Specifically, in order to refine the recrystallized austenite and obtain the desired Ti-based carbides, the total reduction in the temperature range of 1100°C or more and SRT (°C) or less is set to 70% or more. If the total reduction in the above temperature range is less than 70%, the desired coarse Ti-based carbides cannot be obtained. The total reduction is preferably 75% or more, more preferably 80% or more. The higher the total reduction in the temperature range of 1100°C or more and SRT (°C) or less, the more preferable.

[0061] (Total reduction rate in the temperature range above the hot rolling completion temperature FT (℃) below 1100℃: 80% or more) In the manufacturing method of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to this embodiment, the rolling reduction in the temperature range of 1100°C or higher is controlled as described above, and the total rolling reduction in the temperature range of less than 1100°C (FT (°C) or higher) is increased, and further cooling after hot rolling is performed under the conditions described below, thereby refining the average crystal grain size. If the total rolling reduction in the temperature range of FT (°C) or more below 1100°C is less than 80%, the average crystal grain size after transformation becomes coarse. Therefore, the total rolling reduction in the temperature range of FT (°C) or more below 1100°C is set to 80% or more. The total rolling reduction is preferably 85% or more, and more preferably 90% or more. The higher the total rolling reduction in the temperature range of FT (°C) or more below 1100°C, the better, but since the industrial limit is about 99%, it may be 99% or less.

[0062] In order to refine the average crystal grain size, it is important to refine the austenite structure by repeating processing and recrystallization in both rolling in the temperature range of 1100°C to SRT(°C) and rolling in the temperature range of less than 1100°C to FT°C. Therefore, in each temperature range, rolling is performed two or more times.

[0063] In the hot rolling process, the total reduction rate in each temperature range is the percentage of the total reduction amount in this temperature range (the difference between the entrance thickness before the first pass in rolling in this temperature range and the exit thickness after the final pass in rolling in this temperature range) based on the entrance thickness before the first pass in a given temperature range.

[0064] (Hot rolling completion temperature FT (℃): Ar3 (℃) or higher calculated by the following formula (2)) If FT is less than Ar3 (℃), ferrite transformation proceeds during finish rolling, and coarse ferrite grains are formed in some or most of the material, resulting in poor shear workability. Therefore, FT is set to Ar3 (℃) or higher. On the other hand, if FT exceeds 1050° C., the structure becomes coarse and the shear workability decreases. Therefore, FT is set to 1050° C. or less. FT is preferably 1030° C. or less, and more preferably 1010° C. or less. The temperature during hot rolling refers to the surface temperature of the steel material, and can be measured using a radiation thermometer or the like. Ar3(℃)=901-325×[C]+33×[Si]-92×[Mn]+287×[P]+40×[sol.Al] (2) In the above formula (2), the [element symbol] indicates the content of each element in mass %, and 0 is substituted when the element is not contained.

[0065] (After hot rolling, the average cooling rate to below 600℃: 50℃ / sec or more) (Preferably, after the completion of hot rolling, the temperature is cooled to a temperature range of FT-50°C or less within 1.0 seconds.) After completion of hot rolling, accelerated cooling is performed at an average cooling rate of 50°C / sec or more to a temperature range of 600°C or less in order to suppress the formation of ferrite and pearlite. The average cooling rate referred to here means the value obtained by dividing the temperature drop of the steel plate from the start of accelerated cooling (when the steel plate is introduced into the cooling equipment) to the end of accelerated cooling (when the steel plate is removed from the cooling equipment) by the time required from the start of accelerated cooling to the end of accelerated cooling. Although there is no particular upper limit to the average cooling rate, a faster cooling rate requires larger cooling equipment, which increases the equipment costs. Therefore, in consideration of equipment costs, a cooling rate of 300° C. / sec or less is preferable. In addition, in the cooling after hot rolling, in order to suppress the growth of austenite grains refined by hot rolling, it is more preferable to cool the steel sheet by 50°C or more within 1.0 second after the completion of hot rolling (the temperature drop is set to 50°C or more). In order to cool the steel sheet to a temperature range of the hot rolling completion temperature FT-50°C or less within 1.0 second after the completion of hot rolling, cooling is performed at a high average cooling rate immediately after the completion of hot rolling. For example, cooling water may be sprayed onto the steel sheet surface. By cooling the steel sheet to a temperature range of FT-50°C or less within 1.0 second after the completion of hot rolling, the grain size of the surface layer can be refined and the resistance to internal bending cracks can be improved (the occurrence of internal bending cracks during bending can be suppressed).

[0066] (Dwell time in the 600-750℃ temperature range: 5.0 seconds or less) In order to suppress the formation of ferrite and pearlite and harden the matrix structure to obtain a tensile strength of 980 MPa or more, the residence time in the ferrite transformation temperature range of 600 to 750°C is preferably 5.0 seconds or less, and more preferably 2.0 seconds or less.

[0067] [Winding process] (Coiling temperature: less than 600℃) After cooling under the above conditions, the hot-rolled steel sheet is coiled. The coiling temperature (almost equal to the cooling stop temperature) is set to a temperature range below 600°C. By setting the coiling temperature in this temperature range, a bainite or martensite structure is obtained. In addition, by suppressing grain growth after coiling, a high-strength, fine structure can be obtained, resulting in excellent shear workability.

[0068] In the method for producing a hot-rolled steel sheet according to the present embodiment, the structure and the precipitation state of carbides are controlled in the processes up to the coiling process. Therefore, it is preferable not to carry out any process that affects the structure and the state of carbides after the coiling process. EXAMPLES

[0069] Next, the effect of one embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to an example, but the conditions in the example are merely an example of conditions adopted to confirm the feasibility and effect of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this example of conditions. Various conditions may be adopted in the present invention as long as they do not deviate from the gist of the present invention and achieve the object of the present invention.

[0070] Steel having the chemical composition shown in Table 1 was melted and continuously cast into slabs with a thickness of 240 to 300 mm. The resulting slabs were used to obtain hot-rolled steel sheets shown in Tables 3A and 3B under the manufacturing conditions shown in Tables 2A and 2B. In both rolling in the temperature range of 1100°C or higher and SRT(°C) or lower, and rolling in the temperature range of less than 1100°C and FT°C or higher, two or more passes of reduction were performed.

[0071] For the obtained hot-rolled steel sheets, the area fraction of the metal structure at the 1 / 4 depth position, the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more, the average grain size, and the ratio ds / dq of the average grain size dq at the 1 / 4 depth position from the surface to the average grain size ds of the surface layer were obtained by the above-mentioned method. The obtained measurement results are shown in Tables 3A and 3B.

[0072] Moreover, the tensile strength TS, shear workability, and resistance to internal bending cracking of the obtained hot-rolled steel sheets were evaluated in the following manner.

[0073] [Tensile properties] The tensile strength of the hot-rolled steel sheet was evaluated in accordance with JIS Z 2241: 2011. The test specimen was a No. 5 test specimen of JIS Z 2241: 2011, and the test direction was perpendicular to the rolling direction. When the tensile strength TS was 980 MPa or more, the hot-rolled steel sheet was judged to have high strength and to pass the test, whereas when the tensile strength TS was less than 980 MPa, the hot-rolled steel sheet was judged to have poor strength and to fail the test.

[0074] [Shear workability] The shear workability of the hot-rolled steel sheets was evaluated by measuring the surface roughness Rz (μm) of the fracture surface at the end face after punching in a punching test. A punched hole with a diameter of 10 mm and a clearance of 20% was created at a punching speed of 3 m / s. Next, a laser microscope was used to measure the surface roughness Rz (μm) of the fracture surface at four end faces of the punched hole in the rolling direction and the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction, and the maximum value among these was used for evaluation. When Rz was 30.0 μm or less, the hot-rolled steel sheet was judged to have excellent shear workability. The fracture surface is the punched end surface separated by a crack generated near the cutting edge after the shear deformation is completed, as shown in Figure 1.

[0075] [Resistance to internal cracking during bending] The resistance to internal cracking due to bending was evaluated by the following bending test. A rectangular test piece measuring 100 mm x 30 mm was cut out from the hot-rolled steel sheet to obtain a bending test piece. The resistance to internal cracking was investigated in accordance with JIS Z 2248:2014 (V-block 90° bending test) for both bending in which the bending ridgeline is parallel to the rolling direction (L direction) (L-axis bending) and bending in which the bending ridgeline is parallel to the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction (C direction) (C-axis bending), and the minimum bending radius at which cracks do not occur was obtained. The average value of the minimum bending radius in the L axis and C axis divided by the sheet thickness was used as the limit bending R / t, which was used as an index value for resistance to internal cracking in bending. When R / t was 2.5 or less, the hot-rolled steel sheet was judged to have excellent resistance to internal cracking in bending. However, to determine the presence or absence of cracks, after the V-block 90° bending test, the test piece was cut in a plane parallel to the bending direction and perpendicular to the plate surface, and the cross section was mirror-polished to a polished finish, after which cracks were observed under an optical microscope.If the length of the crack observed on the inside of the bent test piece exceeded 30 μm, it was determined that a crack was present. The results are shown in Tables 3A and 3B.

[0076] [Table 1]

[0077] [Table 2A]

[0078] [Table 2B]

[0079] [Table 3A]

[0080] [Table 3B]

[0081] As can be seen from Tables 1 to 3B, the hot-rolled steel sheets according to the present invention (sample numbers 1 to 5, 11 to 27) have excellent strength and shear workability. In addition, among the examples of the present invention, the hot-rolled steel sheets having a ds / dq ratio of 0.95 or less have excellent resistance to internal bending cracking in addition to the above-mentioned properties. On the other hand, it is found that the hot-rolled steel sheets according to the comparative examples do not have at least one of excellent strength and shear workability.

[0082] In the comparative example, sample No. 6, the heating temperature of the slab was low. Therefore, the Ti-based carbides were not sufficiently dissolved during heating, and the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more was low. As a result, the roughness of the fracture surface was high (shear workability was low). In the comparative example, sample No. 7, the total rolling reduction was low in the temperature range of 1100°C or more and SRT (°C) or less. Therefore, the average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more was low. As a result, the roughness of the fracture surface became large. In the comparative example, sample No. 8, the total rolling reduction in the temperature range of FT (°C) or more below 1100°C was low. Therefore, the average grain size became large. As a result, the roughness of the fracture surface became large. In the comparative example, sample No. 9, after completion of hot rolling, the average cooling rate to below 600°C was low, and the residence time at 600 to 750°C was long. This resulted in a high area fraction of ferrite and a large average grain size. As a result, the tensile strength was low and the roughness of the fracture surface was large. In addition, the ds / dq was high, and the resistance to internal bending cracking was also low. In the comparative example, sample No. 10, the coiling temperature was high. Therefore, the surface area fraction of ferrite was high. As a result, the tensile strength was low and the roughness of the fracture surface was large. Sample No. 28, which is a comparative example, had a low C content. As a result, the tensile strength was low. The comparative example, sample No. 29, had a high Si content. As a result, the area of ​​retained austenite was large and the roughness of the fracture surface was large. The comparative sample, sample No. 30, had a low Ti content. This resulted in a low average number density of Ti-based carbides with a major axis of 15 nm or more. As a result, the roughness of the fracture surface was increased. The comparative example, sample No. 31, had a low Mn content, which resulted in low tensile strength. [Industrial Applicability]

[0083] According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a hot-rolled steel sheet having high strength and excellent shear workability. The hot-rolled steel sheet of the present invention is suitable as an industrial material used for automobile parts, machine structural parts, and further building parts, and has high industrial applicability.
