Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1980635A1] A steel sheet excellent in FB performance and also excellent in fabrication performance after FB working and a manufacturing method of the same are provided. The steel sheet is a steel sheet having a composition containing from 0.1 to 0.5 % of C, not more than 0.5 % of Si and from 0.2 to 1.5 % of Mn in terms of % by mass, with P and S being adjusted at proper ranges, and having a structure in which a ferrite has an average grain size of from 1 to 10 µm, a cementite has a spheroidization ratio of 80 % or more, and of the cementites, an amount S gb of a ferrite intergranular cementite which is defined by the following expression (1) : S gb (%) = {S on /(S on + S in )} × 100 (wherein S on represents a total occupied area of a cementite present on the ferrite grain boundary of the cementites present per unit area; and S in represents a total occupied area of a cementite present in a ferrite grain of the cementites present per unit area) is 40 % or more. In this way, the steel sheet becomes a steel sheet excellent in FB performance, mold life and performance after FB working.
