Abstract
A high-strength galvanized steel sheet has a TS of at least 590 MPa and excellent ductility and stretch flangeability and a method for manufacturing the high-strength galvanized steel sheet. The galvanized steel sheet contains, on the basis of mass percent, C: 0.05% to 0.3%, Si: 0.01% to 2.5%, Mn: 0.5% to 3.5%, P: 0.003% to 0.100% or less, S: 0.02% or less, and Al: 0.010% to 1.5%. The total of Si and Al is 0.5% to 2.5%. The remainder are iron and incidental impurities, contain 20% or more of ferrite phase, 10% or less of martensite phase, and 10% to 60% of tempered martensite, on the basis of area percent, and 3% to 10% of retained austenite phase on the basis of volume fraction. The retained austenite has an average grain size of 2.0 μm or less.
