Abstract

There is provided a hot-rolled steel sheet in which a composition contains: in mass %, C: 0.01% to 0.2%; Si: 2.5% or less; Mn: 4.0% or less; P: 0.10% or less; S: 0.03% or less; Al: 0.001% to 2.0%; N: 0.01% or less; O: 0.01% or less; Ti: 0.01 to 0.30%; and the balance being composed of iron and impurities and a structure is composed of by volume fraction, 90% or more of tempered martensite with an average aspect ratio of 2 or less, or 90% or more in total of both tempered martensite and lower bainite.

Claims (28)

1. A manufacturing method of a hot-rolled steel sheet, comprising:

smelting a steel having a composition containing:

in mass %,

C: 0.01 to 0.2%;

Si: 2.5% or less (not including “0” (zero));

Mn: 4.0% or less (not including “0” (zero));

P: 0.10% or less;

S: 0.03% or less;

Al: 0.001 to 2.0%;

N: 0.01% or less (not including “0” (zero));

O: 0.01% or less (not including “0” (zero));

Ti: 0.03 to 0.30%;

Nb: “0” (zero) to 0.30%;

Cu: “0” (zero) to 2.0%;

Ni: “0” (zero) to 2.0%;

Mo: “0” (zero) to 1.0%;

V: “0” (zero) to 0.3%;

Cr: “0” (zero) to 2.0%;

Mg: “0” (zero) to 0.01%;

Ca: “0” (zero) to 0.01%;

REM: “0” (zero) to 0.1%;

B: “0” (zero) to 0.01%; and

the balance being composed of iron and impurities and casting the steel into a slab, and then directly heating the cast slab to 1200° C. or higher or once cooling the cast slab and then heating the cast slab to 1200° C. or higher;

performing hot rolling in which a reduction ratio of rolling at the final stage of rough rolling is set to 25% or more and a rolling temperature is set to lower than 1100° C. and the rough rolling is completed, an obtained rough-rolled piece is heated by 10° C. or higher before finish rolling, and a finishing temperature of finish rolling to be performed subsequently is set to 900° C. or higher; and

performing cooling at an average cooling rate of 50° C./sec or more from the finishing temperature of the finish rolling to 400° C. and performing coiling at 100° C. to 390° C.

2. The manufacturing method of the hot-rolled steel sheet according is claim 1 , further comprising:

performing a galvanizing treatment or a galvanealed treatment after the coiling.

3. The manufacturing method of the hot-rolled steel sheet according to claim 1 , wherein said coiling is performed at a temperature of 100° C. to 380° C.
