Abstract: There is provided a method and apparatus for plating high strength steel such as advanced high strength steel (AHSS) after irradiating the high strength steel with at least one of laser light and plasma to remove Si/Mn/Al oxides from the surface of the high strength steel, modify the surface of the high strength steel, or make the surface of the high strength steel suitable for a post process such as a zinc plating process. For this, a plating method includes heating high strength steel; treating a surface of the high strength steel with plasma to remove at least one of a Mn oxide, an Al oxide, and an Si oxide formed on the surface of the high strength steel during the heating of the high strength steel; and plating the surface-treated high strength steel.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a composition for the surface treatment of metal, a surface-treated steel sheet which is surface-treated with the composition and to a method for manufacturing the surface-treated steel sheet. To accomplish the objective, the method of the present invention may involve the preparing of a composition for the surface treatment of metal using graphene having superior characteristics such as corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. The composition may be effectively coated onto the metal surface by means of electrophoresis, and thus a highly functional surface-treated steel sheet can be obtained.
