FERRITE-AUSTENITE STAINLESS STEEL SHEET FOR STRUCTURAL COMPONENT EXCELLENT IN WORKABILITY AND IMPACT-ABSORBING PROPERTY AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

This stainless steel sheet includes, in terms of mass %, C: 0.001 to 0.1%, N: 0.01 to 0.15%, Si: 0.01 to 2%, Mn: 0.1 to 10%, P: 0.05% or less, S: 0.01% or less, Ni: 0.5 to 5%, Cr: 10 to 25%, and Cu: 0.5 to 5%, with a remainder being Fe and unavoidable impurities, and contains a ferrite phase as a main phase and 10% or more of an austenite phase, wherein a work-hardening rate in a strain range of up to 30% is 1000 MPa or more which is measured by a static tensile testing and a difference between static and dynamic stresses which occur when 10% of deformation is caused is 150 MPa or more. This method for producing a stainless steel includes annealing a cold-rolled steel sheet under conditions where a holding temperature is set to be in a range of 950 to 1150° C. and a cooling rate until 400° C. is set to be in a range of 3° C./sec or higher.
