Patent ID: 10844454

Abstract:
A high-carbon hot-rolled steel sheet having a chemical composition containing, by mass %, C: more than 0.40% and 0.63% or less, Si: 0.10% or less, Mn: 0.50% or less, P: 0.03% or less, S: 0.010% or less, sol.Al: 0.10% or less, N: 0.0050% or less, B: 0.0005% or more and 0.0050% or less, and at least one of Sb, Sn, Bi, Ge, Te, and Se in an amount of 0.002% or more and 0.030% or less in total. The steel sheet has a microstructure including ferrite and cementite, in which the density of cementite in ferrite grains is 0.13 pieces/μm2 or less. Additionally, the steel sheet has a hardness of 81 or less in terms of HRB and a total elongation of 33% or more.
