BR650/780CP

What kind of steel is BR650/780CP?

BR650/780CP is a high strength cold rolled multiphase steel characterized by high strength and excellent ductility and formability. This steel is commonly used in the automotive industry for the manufacture of body and body structural parts. In its name, BR stands for “Bake Hardening Response”, which means that the steel will become harder after being baked at high temperature, improving its strength and formability. 650 and 780 respectively refer to the yield strength and tensile strength of the steel (in MPa).

What is multiphase steel: It is mainly based on bainite and (or) ferrite structure, and usually distributes a small amount of martensite, retained austenite and pearlite structure. The grains are fine and the tensile strength is high. Compared with the dual-phase steel with the same tensile strength, its yield strength is significantly higher, and it also has the characteristics of high bending performance and hole expansion performance. This steel has a high energy absorption capacity and a high residual strain capacity.

How is BR650/780CP manufactured?

BR650/780CP steel is manufactured by the following process:

Raw material preparation: Mix various raw materials according to the designed formula ratio, and perform pretreatment for subsequent process use.

Steelmaking: Using the basic steelmaking process, the raw materials are heated to a high temperature to melt them and perform deoxidation, impurity removal, blending and other operations to obtain high-quality molten steel.

Continuous casting: The molten steel obtained from steelmaking is continuously cast into slabs, and the structure and size of the slabs are controlled by adjusting the process parameters of the crystallizer.

Hot rolling: heating and rolling the slab to process it into a hot-rolled steel plate with a certain thickness.

Cold rolling: cold rolling is performed on hot-rolled steel sheets to further reduce their thickness, and a dual-phase structure is obtained by controlling the rolling process parameters.

Continuous annealing: Continuous annealing is performed on cold-rolled steel sheets to restore the plasticity and ductility of the material, and at the same time adjust the structure and properties of the steel by controlling the annealing process parameters.

Belt winding: roll the annealed steel plate into a reel for subsequent processing.

Processing and forming: Cutting, bending, welding and other processing are performed on the coiled material to make automobile body and body structural parts.

How is BR650/780CP galvanized?

The process of galvanizing BR650/780CP steel is usually divided into the following steps:

Surface treatment: The surface of BR650/780CP steel must first be cleaned and pickled to remove oxides, grease and impurities on the surface, so as to ensure the smoothness and cleanliness of the surface.

Pretreatment: After surface treatment, BR650/780CP steel coil or plate usually needs to be pretreated to facilitate the adhesion and protection of the galvanized layer. Pretreatment usually includes electrolytic cleaning, drying and other steps.

Molten ferrous galvanizing: Pass the pretreated steel coil or plate through a galvanizing machine for molten ferrous galvanizing, which is one of the most commonly used galvanizing methods. In this process, steel coils or plates are dipped in a molten ferrous galvanizing solution, and the zinc layer is attached to the steel surface by electrolysis.

Hot-dip galvanizing: Hot-dip galvanizing is another commonly used galvanizing method. Its basic principle is to immerse the pretreated steel coil or plate in molten zinc liquid, so that zinc forms a layer of zinc-iron alloy on the steel surface. layer.

Galvanizing: Galvanizing is another commonly used galvanizing method. Its basic principle is to spray zinc powder or zinc paint on the steel surface to form a zinc layer by spraying the pretreated steel coil or plate.

By galvanizing, the steel coil or plate can obtain better corrosion resistance and service life while maintaining good mechanical properties.
