Abstract
Disclosed are electro-plated steel sheets having a primer coating composed of 5 to 30% by weight of Cr, 0.005 to 5% by weight of cation polymer, with the balance being Zn, with or without a further Zn or Zn-alloy coating formed on the primer coating. The primer coating may contain fine particles of oxides and/or iron-group metals, and may further be applied with a chromate film and/or an organic coating. Also disclosed is the process for producing an electro-plated steel sheet having excellent corrosion resistance and surface brightness, comprising performing electro-plating in an acidic Zn plating bath containing Cr ions and cation polymer, with the ratio of Cr.sup.6+ ions/Cr.sup.3+ ions being not more than 0.1.
