Patent ID: 11066716

Abstract:
Provided are a steel sheet which has a tensile strength of 900 MPa or higher and excellent weldability, and a method for producing the steel sheet. The steel sheet has a specific composition and a microstructure containing, in terms of area fraction, ferrite of 30% or less (including 0%), tempered martensite of 70% or more (including 100%), and the balance other than ferrite and the tempered martensite of 10% or less (including 0%) in total, the tempered martensite having an average grain size thereof is 5 μm or lower, the tempered martensite having iron-based carbides, which have average particle sizes of 100 nm or less, precipitated on grain boundaries, and the tempered martensite containing, in terms of atomic concentration, 5 atom % or more in total of Si and Mn on the grain boundaries of the tempered martensite. The steel sheet has a tensile strength of 900 MPa or higher.
