Estimating the term…
There is provided a high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having excellent formability, the steel sheet eliminating special pre-structure control and capable of being produced by using a hot-dip galvanized steel-sheet production line that is not capable of sufficiently ensuring an austempering time after annealing. A high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel sheet includes, on the basis of mass percent, 0.05-0.3% C, 1.4% or less (including 0%) Si, 0.08%-3% Mn, 0.003-0.1% P, 0.07% or less S, 0.1-2.5% Al, 0.1-0.5% Cr, and 0.007% or less N, Si+Al≧0.5%, and the balance being Fe and incidental impurities, wherein the steel sheet has a retained austenite content of 3% or more by volume fraction, and wherein the average aspect ratio of retained austenite grains is 2.5 or less.
A high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel sheet excellent in formability, comprising, on the basis of mass percent, 0.05-0.3% C, 1.4% or less (including 0%) Si, 0.08%-3% Mn, 0.003-0.1% P, 0.07% or less S, 0.1-2.5% Al, 0.1-0.5% Cr, and 0.007% or less N, Si+Al3 0.5%, and the balance being Fe and incidental impurities,
A method for producing a high-strength hot-dip galvanized steel sheet excellent in formability, the method comprising annealing a steel sheet in a first temperature region having a temperature of 700° C. to 900° C. for 15 to 600 seconds, the steel sheet containing, on the basis of mass percent, 0.05-0.3% C, 1.4% or less (including 0%) Si, 0.08%-3% Mn, 0.003-0.1% P, 0.07% or less S, 0.1-2.5% Al, 0.1-0.5% Cr, and 0.007% or less N, Si+Al3 0.5%, and the balance being Fe and incidental impurities;
