Abstract
A steel sheet for hot pressing includes a specific chemical composition and further includes a steel structure in which an area ratio of ferrite in a region ranging from a surface to 100 μm in depth is 30% to 90% and an area ratio of pearlite including an average grain diameter of 5 μm or more in a region excluding the region ranging from the surface to 100 μm in depth is 10% to 70%.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A steel sheet for hot pressing, comprising:
a chemical composition represented by, in mass %:
C: 0.11% to 0.35%;
Si: 0.5% to 2.0%;
Mn: 1.0% to 3.0%;
sol. Al: 0.001% to 1.0%;
P: 0.05% or less;
S: 0.01% or less;
N: 0.01% or less;
Ti: 0% to 0.20%;
Nb: 0% to 0.20%;
V: 0% to 0.20%;
Cr: 0% to 1.0%;
Mo: 0% to 1.0%;
Cu: 0% to 1.0%;
Ni: 0% to 1.0%;
Ca: 0% to 0.01%;
Mg: 0% to 0.01%;
REM: 0% to 0.01%;
Zr: 0% to 0.01%;
B: 0% to 0.01%;
Bi: 0% to 0.01%; and
balance: Fe and impurities; and
an internal oxide layer including a thickness of 30 μm or less; and
a steel structure in which an area ratio of ferrite in a region ranging from a surface to 100 μm in depth is 30% to 90% and an area ratio of pearlite including an average grain diameter of 5 μm or more in a region excluding the region ranging from the surface to 100 μm in depth is 10% to 70%.
2 . The steel sheet for hot pressing according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of, in mass %:
Ti: 0.003% to 0.20%; Nb: 0.003% to 0.20%; V: 0.003% to 0.20%; Cr: 0.005% to 1.0%; Mo: 0.005% to 1.0%; Cu: 0.005% to 1.0%; and Ni: 0.005% to 1.0%.
3 . The steel sheet for hot pressing according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of, in mass %:
Ca: 0.0003% to 0.01%; Mg: 0.0003% to 0.01%; REM: 0.0003% to 0.01%; and Zr: 0.0003% to 0.01%.
4 . The steel sheet for hot pressing according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition comprises, in mass %, B: 0.0003% to 0.01%.
5 . The steel sheet for hot pressing according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition comprises, in mass %, Bi: 0.0003% to 0.01%.
6 . A method of manufacturing a hot-pressed steel sheet member, comprising:
a step of heating the steel sheet for hot pressing according to claim 1 in a temperature zone of 720° C. to an Ac 3 point; a step of performing a decarburization treatment of reducing a C content on a surface of the steel sheet for hot pressing by 0.0005 mass % to 0.015 mass % after the heating; and a step of hot pressing and cooling down to an Ms point at an average cooling rate of 10° C./second to 500° C./second after the decarburization treatment.
7 . The method of manufacturing the hot-pressed steel sheet member according to claim 6 , wherein the step of performing a decarburization treatment comprises performing air cooling for 5 seconds to 50 seconds.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
