Abstract
Provided are a Zn—Mg electroplated metal sheet excellent in corrosion resistance, formability and productivity, and a fabrication process therefor. The Zn—Mg electroplated metal sheet comprises a Zn—Mg electroplated layer including Mg and Zn, the Zn being a main component, formed on at least one surface of a metal substrate material. The Zn—Mg electroplated layer shows more excellent corrosion resistance by including a C component therein. The Zn—Mg electroplated metal sheet can be fabricated by performing electroplating with an acidic aqueous solution including metal salts of Zn and Mg, and in addition, a surface active agent.
