Abstract
In the this paper, the compositions design with low carbon and addition of sulfur and manganese which can enhance fish-scale resistance by MnS as hydrogen trap was adopted to produce DC03EK cold-rolled enamel steel. The effect of sulfur and manganese contents on formability and fish-scale resistance of DC03EK cold-rolled enamel steel was investigated. Results show that yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, elongation, work hardening exponent and average plastic strain ratio of the steel with sulfur content of 0.024wt% and manganese content of 0.22wt% is 133 MPa, 310 MPa, 36.8%, 0.22 and 1.46, respectively, showing the well formability. And its hydrogen penetration time and diffusion coefficient is higher than 12 min and lower than 9.26×10-7 cm2/s, respectively, showing excellent fish-scale resistance. However, for the steel with sulfur content of 0.012wt% and manganese content of 0.12wt%, even though better formability is obtained, the fish-scale resistance is poor with hydrogen penetration time of 4.7 min and hydrogen diffusion coefficient of 2.36×10-6 cm2/s which is far from the expectation of steel for enamel.
