Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2246456A1] There is provided a high strength steel sheet having a tensile strength of 900 MPa or higher that can achieve both high strength and good formability. The high strength steel sheet has a composition including, on a mass basis, C: 0.1% or more and 0.3% or less; Si: 2.0% or less; Mn: 0.5% or more and 3.0% or less; P: 0.1% or less; S: 0.07% or less; Al: 1.0% or less; and N: 0.008% or less, with the balance Fe and incidental impurities. In the high strength steel sheet, a steel microstructure includes, on an area ratio basis, 5% or more and 80% or less of ferrite, 15% or more of autotempered martensite, 10% or less of bainite, 5% or less of retained austenite, and 40% or less of as-quenched martensite; the mean hardness of the autotempered martensite is HV ‰¤ 700; and the mean number of precipitated iron-based carbide grains each having a size of 5 nm or more and 0.5 µm or less and included in the autotempered martensite is 5 × 10 4 or more per 1 mm 2 .
