High Al-content steel sheet excellent in workability and method of production of same
View Patent ↗The present invention provides a high Al-content steel sheet having an excellent workability and a method of production of the same at a low cost by mass production, a high Al-content metal foil and a method of production of the same, and a metal substrate using a high Al-content metal foil, that is, a high Al-content steel sheet having an Al content of 6.5 mass % to 10 mass %, the high Al-content steel sheet characterized by having one or both of a {222} plane integration of an α-Fe crystal with respect to the surface of the steel sheet of 60% to 95% or a {200} plane integration of 0.01% to 15% and a method of production of the same, a high Al-content metal foil and a method of production of the same, and a metal substrate using a high Al-content metal foil.
1. A high Al-content steel foil having an Al content of 6.5 mass % to 10 mass % and a steel foil thickness of 0.005 mm to 0.1 mm, said high Al-content steel foil characterized by having a {222} plane integration of 79% to 95% or a {200} plane integration of 0.01% to 1.8% of the α-Fe crystal with respect to the surface of the steel foil and an elongation at break of 11 to 23%, wherein said steel foil is produced by a process comprising the steps of preheating a matrix steel sheet containing Al in an amount, by mass %, of 3.5% to less than 6.5% at a temperature of 750° C. to 1100° C., depositing Al or Al alloy on at least one surface of the matrix steel sheet to obtain a laminate, imparting working strain to the laminate by cold rolling, treating it by diffusion heat treatment, and further cold rolling the laminate.
2. A high Al-content steel foil as set forth in claim 1 , said high Al-content steel foil characterized by having both a {222} plane integration of 79% to 95% and a {200} plane integration of 0.01% to 1.8% of the α-Fe crystal with respect to the surface of the steel foil.
