Alloy-plated steel material having excellent crack resistance, and method for manufacturing same
Provided is a Zn—Al—Mg-based alloy-plated steel material that can be used in automobiles and home appliances and the like and, more particularly, to a Zn—Al—Mg-based alloy-plated steel material that can suppress the generation of cracks in a plating layer that are generated during processing.
1. An alloy plated steel material having excellent crack resistance, comprising:
a base iron, and a zinc alloy plated layer formed on at least one surface of the base iron,
wherein the zinc alloy plated layer comprises, by weight %, 0.5 to 2.5% of Mg, 0.5 to 3.0% of Al, and a balance of Zn and other inevitable impurities, and
wherein the zinc alloy plated layer comprises a Zn single phase and a Zn and Mg mixed phase, and in the Zn and Mg mixed phase, an Zn phase and an Mg—Zn alloy phase have a lamella structure, and an average width of the lamella structure is 1.5 μm or less.
2. The alloy plated steel material of claim 1 , wherein a length direction of the lamella structure is formed at an angle of 45° or greater to a vertical direction of the base iron and the zinc alloy plated layer.
3. The alloy plated steel material of claim 2 , wherein the lamella structure of which a length direction is formed at an angle of 45° or greater to a vertical direction of the base iron and the zinc alloy plated layer is 30 to 100% of an overall lamella structure.
4. The alloy plated steel material of claim 1 , wherein hardness of a Zn phase of the zinc alloy plated layer is Hv 80 to 130, and hardness of an Mg—Zn alloy phase is Hv 250 to 300.
