HOT-ROLLED STEEL SHEET FOR HIGH-STRENGTH ELECTRIC-RESISTANCE WELDED PIPE HAVING SOUR-GAS RESISTANCE AND EXCELLENT WELD TOUGHNESS, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A hot-rolled steel sheet for high-strength ERW pipes contains about 0.02% to about 0.06% C; about 0.05% to about 0.50% Si; about 0.5% to about 1.5% Mn; about 0.010% or less P; about 0.0010% or less S; about 0.01% to about 0.10% Al; about 0.01% to about 0.10% Nb; about 0.001% to about 0.025% Ti; about 0.001% to about 0.005% Ca; about 0.003% or less O; and about 0.005% or less N, and at least one element selected from the group consisting of about 0.01% to about 0.10% V; about 0.01% to about 0.50% Cu; about 0.01% to about 0.50% Ni; and about 0.01% to about 0.50% Mo on the basis of mass. The group of C, Si, Mn, Cu, Ni, Mo, and V and the group of Ca, O, and S satisfy specific relationships, and the microstructure of the steel sheet is composed of about 95% by volume or more bainitic ferrite.
