Abstract

Provided is a plated steel sheet for hot press forming, having an excellent impact property, including: a base steel sheet comprising, by wt %, 0.15-0.4% of C, 0.05-1.0% of Si, 0.6-3.0% of Mn, 0.001-0.05% of P, 0.0001-0.02% of S, 0.01-0.1% of Al, 0.001-0.02% of N, 0.001-0.01% of B, 0.01-0.5% of Cr, 0.01-0.05% of Ti, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities; and an Al—Si plated layer formed on the surface of the base steel sheet. A thickness of a carbon-depleted layer in a surface layer part of the base steel sheet is 5 μm or less. The surface layer part means a region from the surface of the base steel sheet to a depth of 200 μm, and the carbon-depleted layer means a region which the carbon content is 50% or less of an average carbon amount (C 0 ) of the base steel sheet.

Claims (10)

1. A hot press formed part, having an excellent impact property, comprising:

a base material comprising, by wt %, 0.15-0.4% of C, 0.1-1.0% of Si, 0.6-3.0% of Mn, 0.001-0.05% of P, 0.0001-0.02% of S, 0.01-0.1% of Al, 0.001-0.02% of N, 0.001-0.01% of B, 0.01-0.5% of Cr, 0.01-0.05% of Ti, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurities; and

an Al—Si plated layer formed on a surface of the base material,

wherein a carbon-enriched layer is formed in a surface layer part of the base material, and

wherein the surface layer part means a region from the surface of the base material to a depth of 200 μm, and the carbon-enriched layer means a region which the carbon content is 110% or more of an average carbon amount (C 0 ) of the base material.

2. The hot press formed part of claim 1 , wherein the carbon-enriched layer has a thickness of 10 to 150 μm.

3. The hot press formed part of claim 1 , wherein the base material further comprises at least one selected from Mo, Nb, and V in such a manner that a sum thereof is 0.05 to 0.5 wt %.

4. The hot press formed part of claim 1 , wherein the base material has a microstructure comprising, by area fraction, 90% or more of martensite or bainite as a main phase, 10% or less of ferrite, and 5% or less of residual austenite.

5. The hot press formed part of claim 1 , which has tensile strength (TS) of 1300 MPa or more and impact absorption energy (IE) of 4.0 J or more measured using a sample having a thickness of 1.5 mm at 25° C.

6. The hot press formed part of claim 1 , which has a product (TS×IE) of tensile strength (TS) and impact absorption energy (IE), measured using a sample having a thickness of 1.5 mm at 25° C., greater than or equal to 8000 MPa·J.
