Abstract

The present invention relates to a high-strength and high-manganese steel sheet suitable for an outer panel or a vehicle body of a transport vehicle and, more specifically, to a high-strength and high-manganese steel sheet having excellent vibration-proof properties and a method for producing the same.

Claims (13)

1. A high manganese steel sheet consisting of, by wt %, manganese (Mn): 13% to 22%, carbon (C): 0.3% or less, titanium (Ti): 0.01% to 0.20%, boron (B): 0. 0005% to 0. 0050%, sulfur (S) 0. 05% or less, phosphorus (P): 0.8% or less, nitrogen (N): 0.015% or less, and a balance of iron (Fe) and inevitable impurities,

wherein the high manganese steel sheet has an internal friction Q −1 of 0.001or greater, in which Q −1 =dF/(3Fr) 1/2 ,

wherein the high manganese steel sheet has a microstructure in which ε-martensite is included in an austenite matrix in an area fraction of 30% or greater, and

wherein the high manganese steel sheet has a tensile strength of 800 MPa or greater.

2. The high manganese steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the high manganese steel sheet has an elongation of 20% or greater.

3. A method of manufacturing a high manganese steel sheet having high strength and improved vibration-proof properties, the method comprising:

reheating a steel slab to a temperature within a range of 1100° C. to 1250° C., the steel slab consisting of, by wt %, manganese (Mn): 13% to 22%, carbon (C): 0.3% or less, titanium (Ti): 0,01% to 0.20%, boron (B): 0,0005% to 0.0050%, sulfur (S): 0.05% or less, phosphorus (F): 0.8% or less, nitrogen (N): 0,015% or less, and a balance of iron (Fe) and inevitable impurities;

finish hot rolling the reheated steel slab at a temperature within a range of 800° C. to 950° C. to manufacture a hot-roved steel sheet; cooling and coiling the hot-rolled steel sheet at a temperature within a range of 400° C. to 100° C.,

pickling the coiled steel sheet;

cold rolling the pickled steel sheet at a reduction ratio of 30% to 60% to manufacture a cold-rolled steel sheet;

and continuously annealing the cold-rolled steel sheet at a temperature within a range of 650° C. to 900° C.;

wherein the high manganese steel sheet has an internal friction Q −1 of 0.001 or greater, in which Q −1 =dF/(3Fr) 1/2 ,

wherein the high manganese steel sheet has a microstructure in which ε-martensite is included in an austenite matrix in an area fraction of 30% or greater, and wherein the high manganese steel sheet has a tensile strength of 800 MPa or greater.
