HIGHLY FORMABLE HIGH-STRENGTH STEEL SHEET, WARM WORKING METHOD, AND WARM-WORKED AUTOMOBILE PART

摘要

A high-strength steel sheet has a chemical composition including 0.05% to 0.3% of C, 1% to 3% of Si, 0.5% to 3% of Mn, 0% to 0.1% of P, 0% to 0.01% of S, 0.001% to 0.1% of Al, and 0.002% to 0.03% of N in mass percent; further includes iron and impurities; and has a structure including 50% to 90% of bainitic ferrite, 3% or more of retained austenite (gammaR), a total of 10% to 50% of martensite and the retained austenite, and 0% to 40% of polygonal ferrite in area percent based on the entire structure. The retained austenite has a carbon content (CgammaR) of 0.5% to 1.2% by mass. The steel sheet includes 0.3% or more of the retained austenite that is surrounded by martensite. The high-strength steel sheet has a strength of 980 MPa or more and exhibits better ductility.
