    摘要: A method for heat treating a steel component includes heating the component to a temperature at or above the austenitizing temperature and holding the component at or above the austenitizing temperature for a time sufficient to at least partially austenitize the steel, cooling the component to a first temperature in a temperature range of 200° C. to 270° C. and holding the component in the temperature range for at most 6 hours, thereby transforming at least a portion of the austenite into bainite, cooling the component to a temperature of from −30° C. to 30° C., thereby forming martensite; and reheating the component to a second temperature in the temperature range, holding the component in the temperature range for at most 6 hours and then cooling the component to a temperature of from −30° C. to 30° C., thereby transforming a further portion of the austenite into bainite and forming tempered martensite.

    摘要: A hot-press molding method of the present disclosure includes a first heating process in which a steel plate is heated and the entire steel plate becomes austenite, a first cooling process in which a cooling rate of the steel plate after the first heating process is partially changed, a first region which is a part of the steel plate is transformed into martensite, and a second region other than the first region remains as austenite, a second heating process in which the entire steel plate is reheated and the first region becomes tempered martensite, and a second cooling process in which the entire steel plate after the second heating process is cooled. At least one of the first cooling process and the second cooling process is performed during a molding process in which the steel plate is press-molded on a molding die.
