ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a steel sheet for use in the manufacture of an end for a so-called easy-to-open can, a score being formed on the end.
An object of the present invention is to provide an improved steel sheet which can be used as such end instead of conventional aluminum and which can impart an easy-to-open property thereto. A steel sheet according to the present invention consists essentially of from 0.06% to 0.25% of C, and the balance being essentially Fe and unavoidable impurities, and the cementite particles formed in the steel sheet have an average diameter of from 0.05 .mu.m to 0.5 .mu.m. Since the cementite is fine, the can-opening force can be decreased and the formability of the can end is excellent even at a high strength of the steel sheet.
The present invention also provides an end made of the above-mentioned steel sheet and a process comprising the steps of hot-rolling the steel at an austenite temperature range, cooling a formed steel strip at a cooling rate of 30.degree. C./sec or more and then coiling it at a temperature range of from 450.degree. C. to 620.degree. C., and cold-rolling and recrystallization-annealing at a temperature of 680.degree. C. or less.
