Titanium sheet and method for manufacturing the same
To provide a titanium sheet excellent in formability and a method for manufacturing the same. A titanium sheet, wherein, when a carbon concentration of a base material is C b (mass %) and a carbon concentration at a depth d μm from a surface is C d (mass %), the depth d (carbon concentrated layer thickness) satisfying C d /C b >1.5 is 1.0 μm or more and less than 10.0 μm or less, wherein a Vickers hardness HV 0.025 at a load of 0.245 N in the surface is 200 or more, a Vickers hardness HV 0.05 at a load of 0.49 N in the surface is lower than HV 0.025 , and a difference between HV 0.025 and HV 0.05 is 30 or more, wherein a Vickers hardness HV 1 at a load of 9.8 N in the surface is 150 or less, and wherein an average interval between cracks generated in the surface when a strain of 25% is given in a rolling direction in a bulging forming process is less than 50 μm and a depth thereof is 1 μm or more and less than 10 μm.
1. A titanium sheet,
wherein, when a carbon concentration of a base material is C b (mass %) and a carbon concentration at a depth d μm from a surface is C d (mass %), the depth d (carbon concentrated layer thickness) satisfying C d /C b >1.5 is 3.0 μm or more and less than 10.0 μm,
wherein a Vickers hardness HV 0.025 at a load of 0.245 N in the surface is 200 or more, a Vickers hardness HV 0.05 at a load of 0.49 N in the surface is lower than HV 0.025 , and a difference between HV 0.025 and HV 0.05 is 30 or more,
wherein a Vickers hardness HV 1 at a load of 9.8 N in the surface is 150 or less, and
wherein an average interval between cracks generated in the surface when a strain of 25% is given in a rolling direction in a bulging forming process is less than 50 μm and a depth thereof is 1 μm or more and less than 10 μm.
2. A method for manufacturing the titanium sheet according to claim 1 , the manufacturing method comprising:
after performing hot-rolling and descaling, forming an oxide coating film of 20 to 200 nm in thickness in a titanium sheet;
performing cold-rolling to the titanium sheet by using mineral oil as lubricant oil at a reduction ratio of 15% or more per each pass until a rolling ratio of 70% is reached; thereafter,
performing cold-rolling at a reduction ratio of 5% or less at least in a final pass; and
performing annealing to the cold-rolled titanium sheet by holding in a temperature range of 750 to 810° C. for 0.5 to 5 minutes in a vacuum or Ar gas atmosphere.
