Abstract
The present invention relates to steel used for a sash component and the like of a vehicle and, more specifically, to a hot-rolled steel sheet having excellent durability and a method for manufacturing same, the hot-rolled steel sheet having no cracks formed on a material and a welding heat-affected zone (HAZ) even after pipemaking and molding due to a smaller decrease in the strength of the welding heat-affected zone formed during electric resistance welding in comparison with the strength of the material (base material).
Claims8
A hot-rolled steel sheet having excellent durability, comprising:
- by weight %, 0.05-0.14% of carbon (C), 0.1-1.0% of silicon (Si), 0.8-1.8% of manganese (Mn), 0.001-0.03% of phosphorous (P), 0.001-0.01% of sulfur (S), 0.1-0.5% of soluble aluminum (Sol.Al), 0.3-1.0% of chromium (Cr), 0.01-0.05% of titanium (Ti), 0.03-0.06% of niobium (Nb), 0.04-0.1% of vanadium (V), 0.001-0.01% of nitrogen (N), and a balance of Fe and inevitable impurities,
- wherein Mn and Si satisfy relational formula 1 as below,
- wherein a microstructure includes a hard phase including martensite and bainite phases mixed therein with a ferrite phase as a matrix structure,
- wherein in a total fracture (area fraction) of a hard phase, a fraction of grains in which a martensite phase and a bainite phase are mixed in a single grain is 60% or higher, and relational formula 2 as below is satisfied, and
- wherein the hot-rolled steel sheet has durability fatigue lifespan of 60×ten thousand cycles or higher
- 4<Mn/Si<12 [Relational Formula 1]
- where Mn and Si refer to weight contents of respective elements
- SSGM+B/(M+B+SSGM+B)≥0.6 [Relational Formula 2]
- where M refers to a martensite phase, B refers to a bainite phase, and SSGM+B refers to a hard phase in which B and M phases are mixed in a single grain, a structure in which an M phase is present around a grain boundary, and a B phase is present in a central region, each phase is represented by area fraction (%).
