Press Hardening on High-strength Steels with Higher Ductility Values

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Thanks to the properties of the produced components, press hardening is widely used to produce parts in the automotive industry. Therefore, materials with sufficient strength and especially high-energy absorption during an impact are sought for parts in the so-called “crumple zone”. Very promising materials are steels containing retained austenite, where deformation-induced martensitic transformation occurs during cold deformation. These are mainly TRIP or Q-P steels. The experimental program was carried out on the 0.2CMnSi TRIP steel with 0.2 % of carbon. Q-P steels were represented by 0.4CSiCr steel with 0.43 % of carbon and 1.33 % of Cr. 22MnB5 steel, which is commonly used for press hardening, was chosen as the reference material. For the proper treatment design, testing a wide range of parameters is necessary. Therefore, material-technological modelling on a thermomechanical simulator was used in the first step. The results obtained from material-technological modelling were verified in a real die for press hardening, which allows the formation of so-called omega profiles. After press hardening without isothermal hold, mixed ferritic-martensitic structures with a tensile strength over 940 MPa with an elongation of 9 % were obtained for 0.2CMnSi steel. Isothermal hold supported bainite formation and retained austenite stability. Therefore, the elongation was increased up to 34 %. For 0.4SiCr steel, after direct quenching in the die, a tensile strength of around 2000 MPa was obtained with very low ductility between 2 and 4%. The integration of the Q-P process led to an increase in ductility up to 16 %.
