Patent number: 12252802Abstract: A surface-treated steel sheet of the present disclosure includes a steel sheet, and an alloy layer containing Ni and Co on a surface of the steel sheet. A surface roughness Ra1 of the surface of the alloy layer over a sampling length of 5.0 mm in the width direction of the steel sheet is 2.0 ?m or less. Ra2 that denotes the arithmetic mean height of a roughness curve of the surface of the alloy layer over a sampling length of 10 ?m in the width direction of the steel sheet is 20 nm or less, and RSm that denotes the mean length of roughness curve elements over the sampling length of 10 ?m in the width direction of the steel sheet is 700 nm or more, Ra2 and RSm being measured using an atomic force microscope.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: NIPPON STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Kosuke Kawamoto, Yasuto Goto, Yuta Dairokuno, Koki Shimada

Patent number: 12129568Abstract: A surface-treated steel sheet includes a steel sheet, and an Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer containing Ni, Co, and Fe on the steel sheet surface. In the thickness direction of the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer, a Co concentration in the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer is highest at a position which is on an outermost surface side of the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer relative to a position where the Ni concentration is highest in the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer, and which is between the outermost surface of the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer and a depth of 100 nm from the outermost surface. In the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer, an Ni-concentrated region in which the Ni concentration increases toward the outermost surface of the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer is formed between the outermost surface of the Ni—Co—Fe alloy layer and the position where the Co concentration is highest.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2021Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: NIPPON STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Yasuto Goto, Kosuke Kawamoto, Yuta Dairokuno, Yuji Kajii, Koki Shimada

Publication number: 20170159204Abstract: A basket-type anode stores plating pellets in a plating bath and is used for electrolytic plating of a steel strip. The basket-type anode comprises a reticulated member made of Ti to be placed facing the steel strip. The reticulated member contains one or more platinum group elements. When the reticulated member contains one or more platinum group elements, the corrosion of the reticulated member can be prevented, and the lifetime of the reticulated member can be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2015Publication date: June 8, 2017Applicant: NIPPON STEEL & SUMITOMO METAL CORPORATIONInventors: Hideya KAMINAKA, Kyota SHIRASAWA, Hiroyuki YAMAGUCHI, Yuta DAIROKUNO, Hidenori NAMBA
