Thick steel plate having excellent cryogenic impact toughness and manufacturing method therefor
The purpose of one aspect of the present invention is to provide: a thick steel plate capable of removing a conventional normalizing treatment required for ensuring toughness low temperature and cryogenic environments, and having properties equal to or better than those of a conventional steel subjected to the normalizing treatment; and a method for manufacturing the method.
1. A thick steel plate comprising:
by weight %, 0.02 to 0.10% of carbon (C), 0.6 to 1.7% of manganese (Mn), 0.5% or less (excluding 0%) of silicon (Si), 0.02% or less of phosphorus (P), 0.015% or less of sulfur (S), 0.005 to 0.05% of niobium (Nb), 0.005 to 0.07% of vanadium (V), and a remainder of iron (Fe) and unavoidable impurities,
wherein the thick steel plate has, by area fraction, a mixed structure of ferrite of 85 to 95% and pearlite of 5 to 15%, as a microstructure,
a grain size of ferrite is 7.5 or more to 8.7 of ASTM grain size number,
the thick steel plate has impact toughness of 300J or more at −60° C., and
the thick steel plate is manufactured by a method comprising:
reheating a steel slab and finishing hot-rolling the reheated steel slab at a temperature of 880 to 910° C.
2. The thick steel plate of claim 1 , wherein the thick steel plate further comprises, by weight %, at least one of not more than 0.5% of nickel (Ni) and not more than 0.5% of chromium (Cr).
3. The thick steel plate of claim 1 , wherein the thick steel plate further comprises 0.005 to 0.035 weight % of titanium (Ti).
4. A method of manufacturing the thick steel plate according to claim 1 , comprising:
reheating a steel slab at a temperature of 1100° C. or higher, the steel slab including, by weight %, 0.02% to 0.10 of carbon (C), 0.6 to 1.7% of manganese (Mn), 0.5% or less (excluding 0%) of silicon (Si), 0.02% or less of phosphorus (P), 0.015% or less of sulfur (S), 0.005 to 0.05% of niobium (Nb), 0.005 to 0.07% of vanadium (V), and a remainder of iron (Fe) and unavoidable impurities,
finishing hot-rolling the reheated steel slab at a temperature of 880 to 910° C. to produce a hot-rolled steel plate; and
air-cooling the hot-rolled steel plate to a room temperature after the finishing hot-rolling.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the steel slab further comprises, by weight %, at least one of not more than 0.5% of nickel (Ni) and not more than 0.5% of chromium (Cr).
6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the steel slab further comprises 0.005 to 0.035 weight % of titanium (Ti).
7. The thick steel plate of claim 1 , comprising 0.05 to 0.10% of carbon (C).
8. The thick steel plate of claim 1 , wherein the thick steel plate has a thickness of 5 to 100 mmt.
