Abstract

Provided is a hot dip zinc (Zn) alloy plated steel sheet having excellent corrosion resistance and surface qualities, and a method of manufacturing the same. For this purpose, provided is a high corrosion resistant hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet which includes an underlying steel sheet and a hot dip Zn alloy plating layer, wherein a composition of the hot dip Zn alloy plating layer includes 1 to 3 wt % of aluminum (Al), 1.5 to 4.0 wt % of magnesium (Mg), and Zn and unavoidable impurities as a remainder, in which Al+Mg is in a range of 2.5 to 7.0 wt % and Al: (Al+Mg) ratio is in a range of 0.38 to 0.48, and a method of manufacturing the high corrosion resistant hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet.

Claims (6)

1. A high corrosion resistant hot dip zinc (Zn) alloy plated steel sheet comprising:

an underlying steel sheet; and

a hot dip Zn alloy plating layer,

wherein a composition of the hot dip Zn alloy plating layer includes about 2.3 wt. % to about 3 wt. % of aluminum (Al), about 1.5 wt. % to about 3.3 wt. % of magnesium (Mg), and Zn and unavoidable impurities as a remainder, in which Al+Mg is in a range of about 3.8 wt. % to about 6.3 wt. % and Al/(Al+Mg) is a weight ratio in a range of about 0.41 to about 0.48, wherein the hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet is subjected to skin pass rolling, and wherein a surface roughness (Ra) of the hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet is about 2 μm or less before performing the skin pass rolling, and wherein the hot dip Zn alloy plating layer comprises a plated structure, in which a Zn—MgZn 2 binary eutectic structure is dispersed in a matrix of a Zn—Al—MgZn 2 ternary eutectic structure, a Zn single phase structure is included in an amount of about 10% by area or less, and a MgZn 2 structure is included as a remainder.

2. The high corrosion resistant hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the plating layer further comprises one or more selected from the group consisting of silicon (Si), lithium (Li), titanium (Ti), lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), boron (B), and phosphorous (P) in total amount of about 0.1 wt. % or less.

3. The high corrosion resistant hot dip Zn alloy plated steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein phosphorous (P) is adhered to a surface of the plating layer and a content thereof is in a range of about 0.1 mg/m 2 to about 500 mg/m 2 .
