Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A high-strength hot rolled steel sheet and a method for manufacturing the high-strength hot rolled steel sheet are disclosed. The high-strength hot rolled steel sheet includes a specific chemical composition, and a steel structure in which a lower bainite phase and/or a tempered martensite phase at 90% or more in terms of a total area fraction is contained as a dominant phase, an average grain size of the dominant phase is 10.0 μm or less, and an amount of Fe in Fe-based precipitates is 0.70% or less in mass %, in which an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) of a surface is 2.50 μm or less, and a tensile strength TS is 1180 MPa or more.

The invention claimed is: 1. A high-strength hot rolled steel sheet comprising : a chemical composition containing, in mass %, C: 0.07% or more and 0.20% or less, Si: 0.10% or more and 2.0% or less, Mn: 0.8% or more and 3.0% or less, P: 0.100% or less (including 0%), S: 0.0100% or less (including 0%), Al: 0.010% or more and 2.00% or less, N: 0.010% or less (including 0%), Ti: 0.02% or more and less than 0.16%, B: 0.0003% or more and 0.0100% or less, and the balance including Fe and incidental impurities; and a steel structure in which a lower bainite phase and/or a tempered martensite phase at 90% or more in terms of a total area fraction is contained as a dominant phase, an average grain size of the dominant phase is 10.0 μm or less, and an amount of Fe in Fe-based precipitates is 0.70% or less in mass %, wherein an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) of a surface is 2.50 μm or less, and a tensile strength TS is 1180 MPa or more. 2. The high-strength hot rolled steel sheet according to claim 1 , wherein the chemical composition further contains at least one selected from the following groups A to D: group A: one or two or more selected from, in mass %, Cr: 0.01% or more and 2.0% or less, Mo: 0.01% or more and 0.50% or less, Cu: 0.01% or more and 0.50% or less, and Ni: 0.01% or more and 0.50% or less, group B: one or two selected from, in mass %, Nb: 0.001% or more and 0.060% or less, and V: 0.01% or more and 0.50% or less, group C: in mass %, Sb: 0.0005% or more and 0.0500% or less, and group D: one or two or more selected from, in mass %, Ca: 0.0005% or more and 0.0100% or less, Mg: 0.0005% or more and 0.0100% or less, and REMs: 0.0005% or more and 0.0100% or less. 3. The high-strength hot rolled steel sheet according to claim 1 , comprising: a coating layer on a surface. 4. The high-strength hot rolled steel sheet according to claim 2 , comprising: a coating layer on a surface. 5. A method for manufacturing a high-strength hot rolled steel sheet that is a method for manufacturing the high-strength hot rolled steel sheet according to claim 1 , the method comprising: heating a steel material to 1150° C. or more; performing rough rolling on the steel material after the heating to form a steel sheet; performing, before finish rolling to be performed after the rough rolling, high-pressure water descaling on the steel sheet under a condition of a collision pressure of 2.5 MPa or more; performing finish rolling on the steel sheet after the high-pressure water descaling under a condition of a finisher delivery temperature of (RC −200° C.) or more and (RC +50° C.) or less, where an RC temperature is defined by Formula (1); starting cooling after an end of the finish rolling, and performing cooling under conditions of a cooling stop temperature of 200° C. or more and an Ms temperature or less, where the Ms temperature is defined by Formula (2), and an average cooling rate of 20° C./s or more, and under a condition of a time from the end of the finish rolling to a start of the cooling being within 2.0 s in a case where the finisher delivery temperature is RC or more; coiling the steel sheet after the cooling at the cooling stop temperature; and cooling the steel sheet under conditions of an average cooling rate of less than 20° C./s and a cooling stop temperature of 100° C. or less after the coiling to produce the high-strength hot rolled steel sheet, RC (° C.)=850+100×C+100×N+10×Mn+700×Ti+5000×B+10×Cr+50×Mo+2000×Nb+150×V   Formula (1) Ms (° C.)=560−470×C−33×Mn−24×Cr−17×Ni−20×Mo   Formula (2) where each of symbols of elements in Formula (1) and Formula (2) is a content amount (mass %) in steel of a respective element, and a symbol of an element in the formulae of a not-contained element is set to 0 for calculation. 6. A method for manufacturing a high-strength hot rolled steel sheet that is a method for manufacturing the high-strength hot rolled steel sheet according to claim 2 , the method comprising: heating a steel material to 1150° C. or more; performing rough rolling on the steel material after the heating to form a steel sheet; performing, before finish rolling to be performed after the rough rolling, high-pressure water descaling on the steel sheet under a condition of a collision pressure of 2.5 MPa or more; performing finish rolling on the steel sheet after the high-pressure water descaling under a condition of a finisher delivery temperature of (RC −200° C.) or more and (RC +50° C.) or less, where an RC temperature is defined by Formula (1); starting cooling after an end of the finish rolling, and performing cooling under conditions of a cooling stop temperature of 200° C. or more and an Ms temperature or less, where the Ms temperature is defined by Formula (2), and an average cooling rate of 20° C./s or more, and under a condition of a time from the end of the finish rolling to a start of the cooling being within 2.0 s in a case where the finisher delivery temperature is RC or more; coiling the steel sheet after the cooling at the cooling stop temperature; and cooling the steel sheet under conditions of an average cooling rate of less than 20° C./s and a cooling stop temperature of 100° C. or less after the coiling to produce the high-strength hot rolled steel sheet, RC (° C.)=850+100×C+100×N+10×Mn+700×Ti+5000×B+10×Cr+50×Mo+2000×Nb+150×V   Formula (1) Ms (° C.)=560−470×C−33×Mn−24×Cr−17×Ni−20×Mo   Formula (2) where each of symbols of elements in Formula (1) and Formula (2) is a content amount (mass %) in steel of a respective element, and a symbol of an element in the formulae of a not-contained element is set to 0 for calculation. 7.
