Abstract
The object of the invention is an aluminum-killed low-carbon steel sheet comprising by weight between 0.022 and 0.035% of carbon, between 0.15 and 0.25% of manganese, between 0.040 and 0.070% of aluminum, between 0.004 and 0.006% of nitrogen, the remainder being iron and the inevitable trace impurities.The steel contains carbon in free state, a grain count per mm2 greater than 20000 and, in the aged condition, has a percentage elongation A% satisfying the relationship:(670−Rm)/14≦A%≦(720−Rm)/17where Rm is the maximum rupture strength.
