Abstract
A surface-treated steel sheet includes: a base steel sheet; a plated layer formed on the base steel sheet and containing 50 mass % or more of Zn and 0.3 mass % or more of Mg; and a chemical conversion coating formed on the plated layer. The chemical conversion coating contains a silicon compound, P and F, and Mg, an average Si concentration of the chemical conversion coating is 10 mass % or more, the chemical conversion coating includes an F—Mg concentrated layer having an Mg concentration of 1.50 mass % or more and 40.00 mass % or less and an F concentration of 0.50 mass % or more and 5.00 mass % or less in a region in contact with an interface between the chemical conversion coating and the plated layer, a thickness of the F—Mg concentrated layer is 1.0 nm or more, and an average Mg concentration is less than 0.50 mass % and an average F concentration is less than 0.50 mass % in a region of the chemical conversion coating excluding the F—Mg concentrated layer.
