  • Patent number: 11091839
    Abstract: The object of the invention is to provide a surface-treated steel sheet having a coating having fine adhesiveness to an adhesive on the surface and having excellent corrosion resistance, and a production method thereof. Provided is a surface-treated steel sheet including: a steel sheet; a plated layer containing zinc on the steel sheet; and a coating on the plated layer, wherein the coating contains an acrylic resin, zirconium, vanadium, phosphorus and cobalt, and the acrylic resin has an area ratio of 80 to 100 area % in an area from a surface to a thickness of one-fifth of a film thickness of the coating, and an area ratio of 5 to 50 area % in an area including areas from the film thickness center of the coating to a thickness of one-tenth of the film thickness toward the surface side and toward the plated layer side.

  • Patent number: 8658275
    Abstract: An easily and inexpensively producible surface-treated metal plate which uses a continuous coating facility for a surface-treated metal plate to provide at least two coating layers. A surface-treated metal plate comprised of a metal sheet on one surface or both surfaces of which two or more coating layers of different ingredients of formulation are provided, which surface-treated metal plate is characterized in that a diffusion layer is formed at an interface part between a first coating layer as a top layer and a second coating layer directly under the first coating layer, wherein the ingredients of the first coating layer and the second coating layer are mixed in the diffusion layer, and in that t/T is 0.2?t/T?0.8 where a film thickness of said diffusion layer is “t” and a total film thickness of said diffusion layer, said first coating layer, and said second coating layer is “T”.
