Abstract

Provided is a high-strength steel sheet having high impact resistance. The steel sheet includes: by weight %, carbon (C): 0.05% to 0.14%, silicon (Si): 0.01% to 1.0%, manganese (Mn): 1.5% to 2.5%, aluminum (Al): 0.01% to 0.1%, chromium (Cr): 0.005% to 1.0%, phosphorus (P): 0.001% to 0.05%, sulfur (S): 0.001% to 0.01%, nitrogen (N): 0.001% to 0.01%, niobium (Nb): 0.005% to 0.06%, titanium (Ti): 0.005% to 0.11%, and the balance of iron (Fe) and inevitable impurities. The steel sheet has a microstructure comprising ferrite and bainite in a total area fraction of 90% or more. The steel sheet has a value of 0.05 to 1.0 as a shear texture ({110}<112>, {112}<111>) area ratio of a center region (ranging deeper than 1/10t to ½t in a thickness direction, t refers to thickness (mm)) and a surface region (ranging from a surface to 1/10t in the thickness direction).

Claims (5)

1. A steel sheet comprising: by weight %, carbon (C): 0.05% to 0.14%, silicon (Si): 0.01% to 1.0%, manganese (Mn): 1.5% to 2.5%, aluminum (Al): 0.01% to 0.1%, chromium (Cr): 0.005% to 1.0%, phosphorus (P): 0.001% to 0.05%, sulfur (S): 0.001% to 0.01%, nitrogen (N): 0.001% to 0.01%, niobium (Nb): 0.005% to 0.06%, titanium (Ti): 0.005% to 0.11%, and a balance of iron (Fe) and inevitable impurities,

wherein the steel sheet has a microstructure comprising: ferrite and bainite in a total area fraction of 90% or more; and a MA phase, which is a complex phase of martensite and austenite, and martensite in a total area fraction of 1% to 10%, and

the steel sheet has a value of 0.05 to 1.0 as a {110}<112> and {112}<111> shear texture area ratio of a center region ranging 1/10 t to ½ t in a thickness direction to a surface region ranging from a surface to 1/10 t in the thickness direction, where t refers to a thickness of the steel sheet in mm.

2. The steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the ferrite has an average grain diameter within a range of 1 μm to 5 μm.

3. The steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the steel sheet has a tensile strength of 780 MPa or more, and absorbs energy in an amount of 80 J/m 3 or more during a collision.
