Abstract (en)

Provided are a steel sheet having high strength, high ductility, excellent stretch flange formability, and good chemical convertibility; a related member; and methods for manufacturing them.The steel sheet has a chemical composition including specific amounts of C, Si, Mn, P, S, sol. Al, and N in mass%. The steel sheet has a specific ratio of the total of polygonal ferrite, upper bainite, retained γ, fresh martensite, tempered martensite, and lower bainite, and a specific ratio of a remaining microstructure. The steel sheet has a specific ratio of the number of fresh martensite grains and retained γ grains having an equivalent circular diameter of less than 0.8 um, and has a specific ratio of the number of fresh martensite grains and retained γ grains having an aspect ratio of 2.0 or more and an equivalent circular diameter of 0.8 um or more.
