Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A hot-dip plated steel includes a base steel and a hot-dip plating layer on a surface of the base steel, a chemical composition of the hot-dip plating layer contains, by mass %, Al: 10.00% to 30.00%, Mg: 3.00% to 12.00%, Sn: 0% to 2.00%, Si: 0% to 2.50%, Ca: 0% to 3.00%, Ni: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Fe: 0% to 5.00%, and the like, a remainder includes Zn and impurities, a metallographic structure of the hot-dip plating layer contains 5 to 45 area % of an α phase having a grain diameter of 0.5 to 2 μm, the metallographic structure of the hot-dip plating layer contains 15 to 70 area % of a MgZn 2 phase, and, among the α phases having the grain diameter of 0.5 to 2 μm, an area ratio of an α phase having a (111)α//(0001)MgZn 2 orientation relationship to the adjacent MgZn 2 phase is 25% to 100%.

First claim

The invention claimed is: 1. A hot-dip plated steel comprising: a base steel; and a hot-dip plating layer disposed on a surface of the base steel, wherein a chemical composition of the hot-dip plating layer is, by mass %, Al: 10.00% to 30.00%, Mg: 3.00% to 12.00%, Sn: 0% to 2.00%, Si: 0% to 2.50%, Ca: 0% to 3.00%, Ni: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Cr: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Ti: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Co: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, V: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Nb: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Cu: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Mn: 0% or more and less than 0.25%, Bi: 0% or more and less than 5.000%, In: 0% or more and less than 2.00%, Y: 0% to 0.50%, La: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, Ce: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, Fe: 0% to 5.00%, Sr: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, Sb: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, Pb: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, and B: 0% or more and less than 0.50%, a remainder includes Zn and impurities, a metallographic structure of the hot-dip plating layer contains 5 to 45 area % of an α phase having a grain diameter of 0.5 to 2 μm, the metallographic structure of the hot-dip plating layer contains 15 to 70 area % of a MgZn 2 phase, and among the α phase having the grain diameter of 0.5 to 2 μm, an area ratio of the α phase having a (111) α //(0001) MgZn2 orientation relationship to the adjacent MgZn 2 phase is 25% to 100%. 2. The hot-dip plated steel according to claim 1 , wherein, among the α phase having the grain diameter of 0.5 to 2 μm, the area ratio of the α phase having the (111) α //(0001) MgZn2 orientation relationship to the adjacent MgZn 2 phase is 60% to 100%. 3. The hot-dip plated steel according to claim 2 , wherein the chemical composition of the hot-dip plating layer is, by mass %, Mg: 5.00% to 8.00%, and Sn: 0.05% to 2.00%. 4. The hot-dip plated steel according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition of the hot-dip plating layer is, by mass %, Mg: 5.00% to 8.00%, and Sn: 0.05% to 2.00%.
