Abstract

Provided is a plated steel plate used for interior materials and exterior materials such as home appliances, construction materials, vehicles, etc., and a method for manufacturing same. The plated sheet plate includes: base steel; a Zn—Mg plating layer formed on the base steel; and a UV-curable film layer formed on the Zn—Mg plating layer, wherein a hairline pattern is formed on a surface of the Zn—Mg plating layer, and the Zn—Mg plating layer includes 8 to 27 weight % of Mg and a balance of Zn and inevitable impurities.

Claims (22)

1. A plated steel sheet having glossiness and surface characteristics, the plated steel sheet including:

a base steel;

a Zn—Mg plating layer formed on the base steel, the Zn—Mg plating layer having a hairline pattern on a surface thereof;

a UV-curable film layer formed directly on the Zn—Mg plating layer; and

a glossiness, the glossiness having a relative value of 60 to 120 when a reflectivity of glass is 100 during measurement of the glossiness using a glossmeter at a measurement angle of 60 degree,

wherein the Zn—Mg plating layer includes 8 to 27 weight % of Mg and a balance of Zn and inevitable impurities, and

the UV-curable film layer has a thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 μm.

2. The plated steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the UV-curable film layer is transparent.

3. The plated steel sheet of claim 1 , wherein the Zn—Mg plating layer has a double-layer structure including a Zn layer on the base steel and a Zn—Mg layer on the Zn layer.

4. A method of manufacturing a plated steel sheet according to claim 1 having excellent glossiness and surface characteristics, the method comprising:

preparing base steel;

forming a Zn—Mg plating layer on the base steel by vacuum deposition, the Zn—Mg plating layer including 8 to 27 weight % of Mg and a balance of Zn and inevitable impurities;

forming a hairline pattern on a surface of the Zn—Mg plating layer;

coating a UV-curable paint on the Zn—Mg plating layer; and

curing the UV-curable paint to form a UV-curable film layer.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the UV-curable paint is a resin composition including a multifunctional urethane(meth)acrylate having three or more functional groups at 3 to 35 parts by weight, a bifunctional urethane(meth)acrylate at 3 to 35 parts by weight, at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer at 20 to 60 parts by weight selected from a monofunctional (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer and a multifunctional (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer, and a radiation polymerization initiator at 0.1 to 15 parts by weight.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the UV-curable paint is coated in a coating amount of 800 to 1200 mg/m 2 .

7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the curing of the UV-curable paint is performed by irradiating ultraviolet ray having a wavelength of 280 to 400 nm.

8. The method of claim 4 , wherein the vacuum deposition is performed using electromagnetic levitation physical vapor deposition.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein during the electromagnetic levitation physical vapor deposition, a degree of vacuum in a chamber is 1.0×10 −3 mbar to 1.0×10 −5 mbar.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein during the electromagnetic levitation physical vapor deposition process, a temperature of a coating material is 700° C. or more.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein during the electromagnetic levitation physical vapor deposition process, a difference in temperature in a width direction of the base steel after deposition is 100° C. or less.
