In addition, even for parts and the like which have been processed and surface-treated using ordinary steel as a material, stainless steel has come to be used with emphasis on corrosion resistance, appearance, and the like. Generally speaking, stainless steel is inferior in machinability as compared with ordinary steel. Therefore, for applications that involve a cutting process, it is necessary to set a high S content to disperse inclusions in the steel.
The machinability of the stainless steel is improved by adding a free-machining element such as b to disperse the second phase in the steel. SUS303, SUS303Se, etc., which have improved machinability of austenitic stainless steel, are J.

昇を招く。In a conventional stainless steel having improved machinability, the second phase such as inclusions is dispersed in the steel, so that the corrosion resistance, which is a characteristic feature of the stainless steel, tends to decrease. The second phase is a starting point of crack generation during processing, and also causes deterioration of workability of stainless steel. Due to low workability, it is difficult to employ press forming when manufacturing a product having a complicated shape from free-cutting stainless steel, and cutting work for cutting bulk materials such as bar steel and forged steel is inevitable. However, cutting requires a longer time than press forming, and the yield of a material to be a product is low. On the other hand, SUS
Austenitic stainless steel having good formability, such as 304, can be press-formed, but the cutting tool is significantly worn by subsequent threading, resulting in an increase in processing cost.

Therefore, the present inventors have selected alloy components that are effective for machinability from among alloy components that are positively added to improve corrosion resistance, workability, etc. of stainless steel,

C: 0.040% by weight or less N: 0.035% by weight or less C + N / 2 ≦ 0.030% by weight When contained in a large amount, the austenite phase is hardened by solid solution strengthening. Further, the work-induced martensite phase is also hardened, and the machinability is reduced.

When C + N / 2 exceeds 0.030% by weight, not only the austenite phase itself is hardened, but also the work-induced martensite phase is hardened, resulting in reduced machinability. Si: 1.0% by weight or less Si is a component added as a deoxidizing agent during melting.
If the amount of Si exceeds the weight percent, the austenite phase is hardened by solid solution strengthening, and the machinability decreases.

However, even if Mn is contained in an amount exceeding 5% by weight, the machinability corresponding to the increase is not improved, and the corrosion resistance and the workability tend to be reduced due to the increase of inclusions. Cr: 15 to 20% by weight An alloy component effective for improving corrosion resistance, and requires a content of 15% by weight or more. However, if an excessive amount of Cr is contained, formability and machinability deteriorate, so the upper limit of the Cr content was set to 20% by weight.

Since the moldability and machinability are improved with Ni of 10% by weight or less, the upper limit of the Ni content is set to 10% by weight. Cu: 1 to 5% by weight An alloy component effective for improving formability and machinability. When the content is 1% by weight or more, the effect of adding Cu becomes remarkable. However, the hot workability deteriorates when an excessive amount of Cu is contained, so the upper limit of the Cu content was set to 5% by weight.

The upper limit of the S content was set to 0.006% by weight. In order to improve workability, especially hole expandability, in addition to corrosion resistance, S
It is preferable to control the content to 0.003% by weight or less to reduce inclusions that cause a reduction in workability. Ni + 0.5 × Cr + Mn + Cu> 19% by weight Ni, Cr, Mn, and Cu are all effective components for improving formability and machinability. In the present invention, since the formability and machinability are improved by adjusting the content of these alloy components singly and in a correlated manner, the dispersibility and press formability of S-based inclusions that tend to have a bad influence on corrosion resistance are improved. It does not require the addition of free-cutting elements that tend to have an adverse effect. Also, X
The X value defined as = Ni + 0.5 × Cr + Mn + Cu−19% by weight is an index indicating the stabilization of the austenite phase. When the X value is maintained at a positive value, work hardening and, consequently, hardening after temper rolling are reduced. Is suppressed. As a result, as seen in the examples described later, tool wear during cutting is suppressed, and machinability is improved.

Free-cutting stainless steel SUS303 was used as a comparative material. As can be seen from the test results in Table 2, the number of cuts of the comparative material SUS303 was 2012. In the case of steel type numbers 1, 2, 7 to 9 having positive X values, the number of cuts was equal to or greater than that of the comparative material SUS303, indicating good cutability. However, even when the X value was positive, when (C + N / 2) exceeded 0.030% by weight, the number of cuts was less than SUS303 as seen in steel type numbers 5 and 6, and the machinability was reduced.

であった。With respect to the stainless steels of Test Nos. 1, 2 and 7, which had good cutting properties and corrosion resistance, a cold-rolled annealed sheet having a thickness of 4.5 mm was cold-rolled to a thickness of 1.0 mm.
Annealed at 0 ° C. for 1 minute and pickled. A test piece of 90 mm × 90 mm was cut out from the cold-rolled annealed plate after pickling, and subjected to a hole expansion test. In the hole expansion test, a hole diameter d was formed at the center of the test piece using a tool having a punch diameter of 10 mm and a die diameter of 10.2 mm.
After punching the punched hole of 0 , the return of the punched hole was set to the punch side, and the speed was set to 20 mm using a conical punch having a vertical angle of 30 degrees.
/ Min, the hole was expanded with a wrinkle press pressure of 4 tons. During the test, the area around the punched hole was visually observed, and the hole diameter d at the time when the crack was generated
1 was measured. Then, the hole diameters before and after the test are compared, and λ =
The hole expandability was evaluated by the hole expansion ratio λ calculated as (d 1 −d 0 ) / d 0 . As can be seen from the investigation results in Table 4, the hole expansion ratio λ of the electrogalvanized ordinary steel sheet used as the comparative material was 1.20. On the other hand, in steel type No. 2 in which the S content was regulated to 0.003% by weight or less, the hole expansion ratio λ was significantly high at 1.60, and had excellent hole expandability. Even the stainless steel of Test No. 1 having a slightly higher S content of 0.0040% by weight exhibited hole expandability comparable to that of an electrogalvanized ordinary steel sheet. However, in the case of SUS303 stainless steel in which machinability was improved by adding S, cracks occurred immediately after the start of hole expansion, and the material was not suitable for hole expansion.

Using a 2 mm die, a deep drawing was performed in a cup shape at a speed of 100 mm / minute and a wrinkle pressing pressure of 4 tons, and the end of the cup was cut to produce a molded product having a height of 50 mm shown in FIG. The corrosion resistance of each of the obtained molded products was investigated in the same manner as in Example 1, and the edge of the cup was thread-cut at a peak height of 0.30 mm, and the cutability was evaluated based on the number of possible cuts at which the peak height was less than 0.25 mm. did. As can be seen from the survey results in Table 6, in steel types Nos. 10 and 11 in which the X value is positive and the (C + N / 2) amount is 0.030% by weight or less, no crack is generated at the end of the punched hole during hole expanding. In addition, it exhibited deep drawing workability, hole expandability, and machinability after processing surpassed that of electrogalvanized ordinary steel sheets. The corrosion resistance at the product stage was much better than that of electrogalvanized plain steel.
