Full Text The present invention relates to Ultra carbon thin gauge steel sheet and method thereof TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to ultralow carbon thin gauge steel sheet excellent in workability and formability, good in surface conditions, and suitable as steel sheet used for press forming for automobiles, household electrical appliances, etc. and a method for producing the same.
BACKGROUND ART
In general, for automobiles, household electrical appliances, and other applications requiring excellent workability, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication (B) No. 42-12348 and Japanese Patent Publication (B) No. 54-12883, ultralow carbon steel having a C concentration of 0.015 mass% or less and including Ti, Nb, and other strong carbide forming elements are being broadly used. Attempts have been made to further improve workability up to now by improving the method of production. Further, Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 3-170618 and Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 4-52229 propose steel sheet excellent in deep drawability, stretch formability, and-other aspects of workability by i.ncreasing the sheet thickness in the final hot rolling or raising the hot rolled sheet
coiling temperature. However, the problem has arisen that the increasing harshness of the hot rolling conditions increases the load on the heating furnace and hot rolling machine.
In the above ultralow carbon steel including Ti or Nb, fine carbides are present in the steel, so recrystallization is remarkably suppressed. For this reason,annealing at a high temperature becomes



necessary. There are also issues such as the occurrence of heat buckling or sheet breakage during rolling and the increase in the amount of energy consumption. As opposed to this, as shown in Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 6-212354 and Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 6-271978, steel sheet with a low recrystallization temperature has been developed by setting suitable amounts of Mn and P in ultralow carbon steel not containing Nb or Ti and changing the hot rolling conditions. However, in these inventions, Mn or P is added in large amounts, so the alloy cost rises and therefore obtaining steel sheet for ultradeep drawing of a total elongation or 50% or more and and a Lankford value (r value) of 2.0 or more is difficult.
Further, ultralow carbon steel sheet usually is produced by deoxidizing by Al not yet deoxidized molten steel decarburized to the ultralow carbon range in a vacuum degassing system (RH) etc., that is, is "Al killed steel", so the molten steel contains a large amount of alumina inclusions. These alumina inclusions easily coalesce and join together in the molten steel and remain in the cast slab as large alumina clusters, so at the time of hot rolling and cold rolling, the alumina clusters become exposed at the steel sheet surface and cause surface defects. Further, when the alumina clusters remain inside the steel sheet, they become the cause of cracks, defects, and other flaws at the time of press forming. The formability also sharply falls.
In particular, in ultralow carbon steel, if the workability becomes better, the susceptibility to surface defects or cracks rises and even if going to the trouble of developing steel sheet with excellent workability, the yield obtained as a product is low and a large cost increase is incurred. To deal with these problems accompanying Al deoxidation, for example, as shown in Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 61-276756 and Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 58-185752, the method

has been proposed of treating molten steel by Ca to convert the alumina clusters to low melting point calcium aluminate for quick removal by floatation. However, conversion of alumina clusters requires a large amount of Ca. It is known that Ca reacts with the S in the steel to form CaS and becomes a cause of rusting. Further, as shown in Japanese Patent Publication (A) No. 10-226843, the method has also been developed of adding fine amounts of Al and Ti for deoxidation and controlling the inclusions in the molten steel to inclusion compositions with good crushability mainly comprised of Ti oxides, Mn oxides, Si oxides, and alumina.
However, molten steel contains dissolved Al, so if the molten steel is reoxidized by the slag or air, the composition of titania-based inclusions caused by Ti deoxidation changes to the high alumina side and results in aggregation and coarsening, so this is not a fundamental resolution of the problems of surface defects and press defects. Further, the Mn oxides, Si oxides, and Ti oxides have to be made complex, but the upper limit value of the amount of addition of Ti is low, so there was the problem that a high workability material could not necessarily be obtained.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
Therefore, the present invention has as its object to solve the above problems all at once and provide an ultralow carbon steel sheet free of press cracking and surface deterioration due to inclusions, exhibiting a high r value (r value>2.0) and elongation (total elongation>50%), and enabling good steelmaking operations and a method for producing the same.
Specifically, it has as its object to provide an ultralow carbon steel sheet produced not by Al deoxidation, but by Ti deoxidation to prevent the occurrence of the problems due to alumina-based inclusions and Al-based precipitates and by adding a suitable total amount of La, Ce, and Nd to prevent

coalescence of titania-based inclusions at the time of Ti deoxidation, control precipitation of Ti-based precipitates, and prevent nozzle clogging in the steelmaking and thereby obtain the above properties.

BEST MODE FOR WORKING THE INVENTION
Below, the present invention will be explained in detail.
The inventors engaged in detailed research and analysis, taking note of the behavior of fine precipitates, on the method of promoting the recrystallization growth at the time of annealing in Ti- containing ultralow carbon steel so as to further improve the workability and as a result discovered that it is effective to limit the dissolved Al concentration (in analysis, corresponding to the acid soluble Al concentration, the "acid soluble Al concentration"
meaning the measured amount of Al dissolved in an acid, the fact that dissolved Al will dissolve in an acid.


while A12O3 will not dissolve in an acid, being utilized in this method of analysis) to a predetermined value or less and to fix the S by at least La, Ce, and Nd. Here, "at least La, Ce, and Nd" means one or more types of La, Ce, and Nd.
Steel containing a large amount of dissolved Al produces some fine A1N. This A1N inhibits the recrystallized grain growth at the time of continuous annealing, so by limiting the acid soluble Al concentration to a predetermined value or less, the precipitation of A1N is prevented.
Further, regarding the S, by adding La, Ce, or CNd into the molten steel and fixing it as relatively large grain size (for example, several |jm or more) lanthanum oxysulfite, lanthanum sulfite, cerium oxysulfite, cerium sulfite, neodymium oxysulfite, and neodymium sulfite inclusions, the solute S concentration in the cast slab is reduced. If reducing the solute S concentration in the cast slab, in the hot rolling process, the S can be prevented from precipitating as fine TiS (diameter of several 10 nm) and made to precipitate as the 11^282 (diameter of several 100 nm) larger in grain size than TiS.
Further, before coiling the hot rolled sheet, the C in the steel sheet is also fixed as Ti4C2S2, so the amount of precipitation of fine carbides (diameter of several 10 nm) precipitating at the time of coiling can be greatly reduced. That is, by adding at least La, Ce, and Nd, it is possible to enlarge the grain size of the precipitates in the Ti-containing ultralow carbon steel and possible to reduce the amount of the same. The pinning force falls, and the crystal grain growth at the time of continuous annealing is promoted. As a result, steel sheet excellent in workability exhibiting a high r value and a high elongation value can be obtained.
On the other hand, the inventors studied in detail the behavior of inclusions in the molten steel of the

above composition and, by changing to deoxidation mainly by Ti, succeeded in the fine dispersion of inclusions and prevention of surface defects, cracks at the time of press forming, etc. From the viewpoint of the quality of the material, the acid soluble Al concentration has to be limited to a predetermined value or less and a state where substantively the molten steel does not contain any dissolved Al has to be secured, so the inventors came up with the idea of deoxidation by the Ti basically essential for quality. Normally, molten steel decarburized in a converter or vacuum treatment vessel contains a large amount of dissolved oxygen. This dissolved oxygen is usually almost entirely removed by the addition of Al (reacts as in the following formula (1)), so a large amount of AlaOa inclusions are produced.
2A1+30=A1203 ... (1)
These inclusions coalesce and combine with each other directly after deoxidation to form large alumina clusters of several 100 ^m or more size and cause surface defects and cracks at the time of press forming. Further, at the time of continuous casting, these alumina clusters deposit on the immersion nozzle. In serious cases, the nozzle ends up being completely clogged. However, in the present invention, the molten steel is mainly deoxidized by Ti, so the alumina clusters causing defects can be kept down to an extremely low limit and, as a result, surface defects and cracks at the time of press forming can be prevented and further clogging of the immersion nozzle can be suppressed. Further, even if slag or air etc. is entrained causing the molten steel to reoxidize, since substantively no dissolved Al is present, no new alumina inclusions are produced.
In the present invention, it is not necessary to remove all of the dissolved oxygen after decarburization by Ti alone. It is also possible to first perform preliminary deoxidation by Al to an extent where no dissolved Al substantively remains, stir the melt to

cause the alumina-based inclusions to float up as coalesced clusters for removal to an extent preventing them from having any effect, then remove the oxygen remaining in the molten steel by Ti. Further, the molten steel is mainly deoxidized by Ti, so the inclusions in the molten steel become mainly Ti oxides. If continuously casting such molten steel, metal containing a high density of Ti oxides deposits on the inside walls of the ladle nozzle. In serious cases, the ladle nozzle ends up being completely clogged. The inventors discovered that if adding suitable quantities of La, Ce, and Nd, the Ti-based inclusions in the molten steel are converted to complex inclusions of at least La oxides, Ce oxides, and Nd oxides with Ti oxides (La oxide-Ti oxide, La oxide-Ce oxide-Ti oxide etc.) and become finely dispersed and form at least lanthanum oxysulfite, cerium oxysulfite, and neodymium oxysulfite to prevent clogging of the ladle nozzle and that if increasing the amounts of addition of La, Ce, and N, the oxysulfites change to sulfites and conversely clogging of the ladle nozzle is aggravated.
Therefore, by reducing the dissolved Al
concentration to below a predetermined value, deoxidizing the molten steel mainly by Ti, and together adding suitable quantities of at least La, Ce, and Nd to the molten steel to convert the Ti oxides to complex oxides with the La oxides, Ce oxides, and Nd oxides and finely disperse them and causing the formation of at least lanthanum oxysulfite, cerium oxysulfite, and neodymium oxysulfite to fix the solute S, it is possible to prevent the clogging of the immersion nozzle and ladle nozzle and also produce thin gauge steel sheet excellent in surface conditions, formability and workability.
The chemical ingredients of the present invention were limited for the reasons explained below. Note that in the following explanation, the amounts of the ingredients are all mass%.
0.002%
have the effect of improving the workability and of converting and finely dispersing the inclusions. With La+Ce+Nd0.02%, it is possible to form sulfites and fix the S, but the ladle nozzle ends up being clogged. Therefore, it is necessary to add the La, Ce, and Nd in the molten steel to obtain 0.002%£La+Ce+Nd Acid soluble Al concentration 0.0003%£C£0.003%: If a large amount of C is present in the steel, even if working the present invention, at the time of coiling, a large amount of fine carbides precipitate and the pinning force increases, so crystal grain growth is inhibited and the workability ends up falling. For this reason, it is preferable to reduce the C concentration as much as possible, but for example if reducing the C concentration to less than 0.0003%, the vacuum degasification greatly increases in cost. Therefore, 0.003% is aimed at as the upper limit C concentration enabling the r value>2.0 and the total elongation ^50% of the present invention to be achieved and 0.0003% is aimed at as the lower limit C concentration below which the vacuum degasification greatly increases in cost.
Si
becomes greater, the elongation and other aspects of the workability fall. Therefore, in the present invention, total elongation >50% was enabled by making the upper limit concentration of Si 0.01%. The lower limit value of Si concentration includes 0%.
Mn^O.1%: If the Mn concentration becomes high, the workability falls, so to expect a high workability, specifically an r value>2.0 and a total elongation>50%, the upper limit value of the Mn concentration was made 0.1%. The lower limit value of Mn concentration includes 0%.
P2.0 and total elongation>50% of the present invention can no longer be expected, so the upper limit value was made 0.02%. The lower limit value of P concentration includes 0%.
S^O.01%: If S is too great, even if adding Ce or La, the S cannot be sufficiently fixed, so fine TiS is precipitated and recrystallized grain growth is obstructed. For this reason, the upper limit value of S was made 0.01%. The lower limit value of S concentration includes 0%.
0.0005 0.01%
Next, the reasons for limitation of the production conditions will be explained. The continuously cast slab obtained from the above ingredients may be cooled once, reheated, then hot rolled or may be directly hot rolled directly without cooling. The temperature of the hot rolling, to cause as much Ti4CaS2 as possible to precipitate, should be not more than 1250°C, preferably not more than 1200°C. In the present invention, C ends up precipitating almost entirely before coiling of the hot rolled sheet, so the coiling temperature has no effect on the amount of precipitation of fine carbides. The sheet should be coiled at usually from room temperature to about 800°C in range. Coiling at less than room temperature not only results in excessive facilities, but also does not give any particular effect of improvement. Further, if the coiling temperature exceeds 800°C, the oxide scale becomes thicker and invites an increase in the cost of pickling.
Next, the reduction rate in the cold rolling (called the "cold rolling rate") has to be at least 70% from the viewpoint of securing the workability. If the cold rolling rate is less than 70%, an r value of 2.0 or more cannot be secured.
The cold rolled steel sheet obtained after the cold rolling process is continuously annealed. The continuous annealing is performed at a temperature of 600 to 900°C. If less than 600°C, the steel does not recrystallize and the workability deteriorates, so 600°C is made the lower limit, while if over 900°C, the steel sheet weakens in high temperature strength and problems arise such as the sheet breaking in the continuous annealing furnace, so 900°C is made the upper limit. After this, skin pass rolling may be performed. Further, after this, the sheet may also be plated for corrosion resistance. The continuous annealing may be performed at the hot dip zinc coating line. It is also possible to hot dip coat the

sheet iinmediately after annealing to obtain a hot dip zinc coated steel sheet, alloyed hot dip zinc coated steel sheet, etc.
The inventors investigated the recrystallized grains of the thus obtained high workability steel sheet in detail, whereupon they found it is possible to obtain steel sheet having an average circle equivalent diameter of recrystallized grains of 15 urn or more and an average value of the long axis/short axis of recrystallized grains (aspect ratio) of 2.0 or less. This is because the fine precipitates are reduced in number and the growth of the recrystallized grains is promoted.
When the average circle equivalent diameter of the recrystallized grains of the steel sheet is 15 um or more, the total elongation is improved to 50% or more. The upper limit is not particularly defined.
Further, when the average value of the long axis/short axis of recrystallized grains (aspect ratio) is 2.0 or less, the recrystallized grains approach spherical shapes and the r value is improved to 2.0 or more. Further, the lower limit value is not particularly defined, but the closer the crystallized grains to a spherical shape, the smaller the anisotropy, so the aspect ratio is preferably as close to 1 as possible.
Examples
Molten steel right after discharge from the converter was decarburized by a vacuum degasification system, then predetermined ingredients were added to thereby produce molten steel comprised of each of the ingredient compositions of Table 1. Each molten steel was continuously cast to obtain a cast slab which was heated to 1150°C, finish hot rolled at 930°C, and coiled at 700°C to obtain a hot rolled sheet of a thickness of 4 mm. The obtained hot rolled sheet was cooled by a reduction rate of 80% (reduction rate ~ (initial sheet thickness-final sheet thickness)/initial sheet thickness x 100), then

continuously annealed at 780°C and further skin pass rolled at a reduction rate of 0.7% to obtain the final product sheet. The obtained final product sheet was subjected to a tensile test and measured for r value using a No. 5 test piece described in JIS Z2201. The r value was calculated by measuring the values in the rolling direction (L direction), a direction perpendicular to the rolling direction (C direction), and a direction inclined 45° with respect to the rolling direction (D direction) and obtaining the average by the following equation:
r==(rll+2rD+rc)/4
Each final product sheet was polished at the cross-section perpendicular to the rolling direction and examined for inclusions by the secondary electron image of a scan type electron microscope. EDX was used for analysis of the composition of about 50 randomly selected inclusions so as to determine the main inclusion composition. Further, the final product sheet was measured for the average circle equivalent diameter and average aspect ratio of the recrystallized grains by using a nital reagent to corrode the cross-section of the steel sheet in the rolling direction, obtaining a 500X to 1000X optical micrograph, then analyzing the image. The quality was evaluated by visual observation on the inspection line after cold rolling and assessing the number of surface defects occurring per coil.
The results of evaluation of the thus obtained steel sheets are shown in Table 2. As clear from Table 2, the steel sheets of the invention examples satisfying the requirements of the present invention (Steel Nos. 1 to 5) are steel sheets which have the solute S fixed as at least lanthanum oxysulfite, cerium oxysulfite, and neodymium sulfite inclusions, have average recrystallized grain sizes of 15 jam or more and aspect ratios of 2.0 or less, and are extremely good in grain growth, so exhibit

high r values (r value>2.0) and good total elongations (total elongation >50%) and are improved in workability. Further, it is learned that the surface conditions are also extremely good in the invention examples (Steel Nos. 1 to 5} since almost no surface defects are formed. Further, in the invention examples (Steel Nos. 1 to 5), the Ti oxides in the molten steel are converted to complex oxides of at least La, Ce, and Nd oxides with Ti oxides, so there is also no clogging of the ladle nozzle or immersion nozzle and the operability at the time of continuous casting is also extremely good.
As opposed to this, in the steel sheets of the comparative examples (Steel Nos. 6 to 10), since La, Ce, and Nd are not added, no lanthanum oxysulfite, cerium oxysulfite, and neodymium sulfite inclusions are formed at all, a large amount of solute S remains, and steel sheets having average recrystallized grain sizes of less than 15 ^in and aspect ratios of over 2.0 and poor in grain growth are obtained, so the r values (r value
