A method of manufacturing a hot dip coated steel strip, wherein coating takes place by leading the strip through a bath of molten metal including Al, the remainder of the metal being Zn, inevitable impurities and optionally a maximum of 0.3% of one or more additional elements, wherein the composition of the bath is controlled so as to have an aluminium content of more than 0.50%.

A metal-polypropylene-metal laminate, in which the metal sheets are steel or aluminum is provided which is suitable for cold-forming followed by heat treatment at at least 135.degree. C., e.g. for use in vehicle bodywork. To achieve this, the polypropylene of the core of the laminate has a yield stress at the heat treatment temperature of not less than 2 MPa, and has shape stability such that in a standard shape stability test at the heat treatment temperature it changes shape by not more than 0.5.degree.. A bonding agent between the polypropylene core and the metal sheets is suitably one having a thermosetting component and a polypropylene thermoplastic component.

The method of inhibiting the reduction of the bond strength by water of a metal-thermoplastic polymer-metal sandwich, where the thermoplastic core contains carbon to carbon double bonds, by incorporating 0.01 to 1.0% of a fatty acid component which comprises at least one fatty acid as an additive.
