Abstract

See full text

A process for manufacturing hot rolled high strength dual phase steels. In some instances, hot rolled strip is continuously cooled to less than 100° C. prior to coiling using a cooling rate between 40-70° C./second. In other instances, hot rolled strip is cooled to less than 100° C. prior to coiling using a step cooling treatment. In yet other instances, hot rolled strip is continuously cooled to less than 100° C. prior to coiling using a cooling rate between 70-100° C./second. For hot rolled strip subjected to a cooling rate between 40-70° C./second, or subjected to the step cooling treatment, hot rolled steel sheet with a tensile strength greater than 590 MPa is produced. For hot rolled strip subjected to a cooling rate between 70-100° C./second, hot rolled steel sheet with a tensile strength greater than 690 MPa is produced. Also, the hot rolled steel sheet has a ferrite plus martensite microstructure free of pearlite and bainite.
