Abstract: The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a steel sheet for a container which has a plated layer containing Ni of 300 to 1000 mg/m2 in terms of Ni metal, provided on at least one surface of a steel sheet, which has a chemical conversion treatment film containing Zr of 1.0 to 50 mg/m2 in terms of Zr metal, provided on the steel sheet, which contains a phosphate compound of 0.5 to 25 mg/m2, and of which a F-atom number density measured by XPS analysis of a plane of 2 nm and a plane of 4 nm in a depth direction obtained by a sputtering treatment is equal to or less than 2 at %. The method includes forming the chemical conversion treatment film on the steel sheet by performing an immersion or a cathodic electrolytic treatment with a solution containing Zr ions, F ions, and phosphate ions, and performing a washing treatment with a warm water at 40° C. or higher for 0.5 or more seconds.

Abstract: The present invention provides a steel sheet for a container including: a plated layer containing an adhesion amount of 300 to 1000 mg/m2 of nickel, provided on at least one surface of a steel sheet as metal Ni; and a chemical conversion treatment film formed on the steel sheet by performing immersion or a cathodic electrolytic treatment with a solution containing Zr ions, F ions, and phosphate ions, wherein a metal Zr adhesion amount of the chemical conversion treatment film is 1.0 to 50 mg/m2, an amount of 0.5 to 25 mg/m2 of a phosphate compound is contained in terms of P amount, and an F-atom number density measured by XPS analysis of a plane of 2 nm and a plane of 4 nm in a depth direction obtained by a sputtering treatment is equal to or less than 2 at %.
