Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention provides methods for manufacturing warm press-formed members which can ensure post-coating corrosion resistance. A method for manufacturing warm press-formed members includes heating a steel sheet to a temperature in the range from 200 to 800° C. and warm press-forming the steel sheet at a temperature in the above range of temperatures, the steel sheet having a Zn—Ni alloy coating layer on its surface, the coating layer including 10 to 25 mass % Ni and the balance being Zn and inevitable impurities and having a coating weight of 10 to 90 g/m 2 .

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for manufacturing warm press-formed members, comprising heating a steel sheet to a temperature in the range from 200 to 800° C. and warm press-forming the steel sheet at a temperature in the above range of temperatures, the steel sheet having a lower coating layer and a Zn—Ni alloy coating layer in this order on the surface of the steel sheet, the lower coating layer including not less than 60 mass % Ni and the balance being Zn and inevitable impurities and having a coating weight of 0.01 to 5 g/m 2 , the Zn—Ni alloy coating layer including 10 to 25 mass % Ni and the balance being Zn and inevitable impurities and having a coating weight of 10 to 90 g/m 2 . 2. The method for manufacturing warm press-formed members according to claim 1 , wherein the steel sheet used further has, on the Zn—Ni alloy coating layer, at least one compound layer selected from Si-containing compound layers, Ti-containing compound layers, Al-containing compound layers and Zr-containing compound layers. 3. The method for manufacturing warm press-formed members according to claim 2 , wherein the compound layer contains an inorganic solid lubricant.
