Patent ID: 10125414

Abstract:
A method of producing a hot-dip Zn alloy-plated steel sheet includes: dipping a base steel sheet in a hot-dip Zn alloy plating bath to form a hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer on a surface of the base steel sheet; and contacting an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble corrosion inhibitor with a surface of the hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer to cool the base steel sheet and the hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer having a raised temperature through formation of the hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer. A temperature of the surface of the hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer when the aqueous solution is to be contacted with the surface of the hot-dip Zn alloy plating layer is equal to or more than 100° C. and equal to or less than a solidifying point of the plating layer. The aqueous solution containing the water-soluble corrosion inhibitor satisfies the Equation [{(Z0−Z1)/Z0}100≥20].
