Abstract
A steel sheet may be used for hot-dip galvanizing capable of manufacturing hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet(s) with a high Si content and in which alloying unevenness is suppressed. Such a steel sheet for hot-dip galvanizing may include an internal oxide layer containing an oxide of Si between a surface layer of the steel sheet and a steel sheet base portion. The Si content in a chemical composition of the steel sheet may be 1.0 mass % or more. A solid solution Si amount from a surface of the steel sheet to a depth of 1 μm measured at all four positions including positions of 10 mm, 30 mm, and 50 mm from an edge in a coil width direction and a position of a center in the coil width direction at a rear end in a rolling direction of the steel sheet for hot-dip galvanizing may be 1.4 wt. % or less.
