Claims5
A steel sheet comprising:
- by wt %, C:
- 0.25 to 0.75%, Si:
- 4.0% or less, Mn:
- 0.9 to 5.0%, Al:
- 5.0% or less, P:
- 0.15% or less, S:
- 0.03% or less, N:
- 0.03% or less, and a balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities;
- and
- as microstructures, 30 to 70 vol % of tempered martensite, 10 to 45 vol % of bainite, 10 to 40 vol % of retained austenite, 3 to 20 vol % of ferrite, and unavoidable structures,
- wherein the steel sheet satisfies the following [Relational Expression 1] and [Relational Expression 2];
- 1.1≤[Si+Al]F/[Si+Al]γ≤3.0 [Relational Expression 1]
- in the above Relational Expression 1, [Si+Al]F is an average total content (wt %) of Si and Al included in the ferrite, and [Si+Al]γ is an average total content (wt %) of Si and Al included in the retained austenite;
- and
- V(1.2 μm,γ)/V(γ)≥0.1 [Relational Expression 2]
- in the above Relational Expression 2, V(1.2 μm, γ) is a fraction (vol %) of the retained austenite having an average grain size of 1.2 μm or more, and V(γ) is the fraction (vol %) of the retained austenite.
