Abstract
Abstract A process of producing a cold rolled killed steel sheet with good cold formabilities particularly by continuous-annealing, and more particularly to a process of producing cold rolled steel sheet and strip having particularly enhanced deep drawability by controlling the chemical composition and compositional proportions of the killed steel as well as the high temperature coiling after a hot rolling operation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
175 words
A method for producing a cold rolled steel sheet having excellent cold-formability comprising; hot rolling an aluminum killed steel slab, coiling the hot rolled band at a temperature not lower than 735° C. to produce a manganese sulfide particle distribution of at least 5 particles per 4 × 10 -7 mm 2 , the manganese sulfide particles having a diameter not larger than 300A, cold rolling the hot rolled band into a strip, heating the cold rolled strip to a temperature from about 750° C. to 850° C. to effect recrystallization annealing, and then cooling the strip from said annealing temperature at an average cooling rate from at least about 5°-30° C./sec. to a temperature between over-aging temperature and not less than 200° C., and then over-aging the strip at a temperature ranging from about 350° C. to 650° C., said steel slab comprising; C: about 0.02-0.08% Mn: about not more than 0.25% with a Mn/S = about 7 to 30 Al: not more than about 0.07 with the balance being iron and unavoidable impurities.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A method according to claim 1, in which the slab further comprises at least one of not more than 0.05% B and not more than 0.08% Ti.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
A method according to claim 1, in which the slab contains 0.002 to 0.030% S, 0.05 to 0.25% Mn with Mn/S ratio being 7 to 30.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
A method according to claim 1, in which the steel strip obtained shows a r value not lower than 1.6.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
A method according to claim 1, in which the over-aging temperature is in range from 450° to 550° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
A method according to claim 1, the cooling from the recrystallization annealing temperature to the over-aging temperature or 200° C. is done with an average rate of 5° to 20° C./second.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
A method according to claim 1, in which the steel sheet after the over-aging is successively temper rolled at a temperature not higher than 50° C.
