  • Publication number: 20250146095
    Abstract: This steel sheet includes, in mass % C: 0.15% to 0.50%, Si: 0.01% to 1.00%, Mn: 1.00% to 3.00%, P: 0% to 0.0200%, S: 0.0001% to 0.0200%, Al: 0.001% to 0.100%, and N: 0% to 0.0200%, with the remainder being Fe and impurities, in which a metallorgraphic structure has an area fraction of 0% to 10.0% of retained austenite and 0% to 5.0% of pearlite, ferrite, and bainite in total, with the remaining structure being martensite and tempered martensite, a maximum diameter of MnS predicted by extreme value statistics is 30 ?m or less, a surface roughness Ra is 5 ?m or less, and a surface layer has a Vickers hardness of greater than or equal to a tensile strength TS (MPa) of the steel sheet×0.25.
