Alloyed-molten-zinc-plated steel sheet with excellent processability and high strength and process for producing the same

Abstract

Galvannealed steel sheet simultaneously able to achieve excellent workability and high strength and a method of production of the same are provided as an objective, in particular high strength galvannealed steel sheet excellent in workability, comprising high strength steel sheet containing, by mass %, C: 0.05 to 0.15%, Si: 0.3 to 2.0%, Mn: 1.0 to 2.8%, P: 0.03% or less, S: 0.02% or less, Al: 0.005 to 0.5%, and N: 0.0060% or less and a balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities, where, when % C, % Si, and % Mn respectively represent the C, Si, and Mn contents, (% Mn)/(% C)≧12 and (% Si)/(% C)≧4 being satisfied, on the surface of which having a galvannealed layer containing Al: 0.05 to 0.5 mass % and Fe: 5 to 15 mass % and a balance of Zn and unavoidable impurities, said steel sheet satisfying a relationship of tensile strength F (MPa) and elongation L (%) of L≧52−0.035×F.
