Abstract
Disclosed is a hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet that stably exhibits satisfactory phosphatability. It is a high-strength hot-dip galvannealed steel sheet which includes a base steel sheet and, arranged on at least one side thereof, an Fe—Zn alloyed galvanized layer. The base steel sheet contains 0.03% to 0.3% of carbon, 0.5% to 3.0% of silicon, and 0.5% to 3.5% of manganese, with the remainder including iron and inevitable impurities. The Fe—Zn alloyed galvanized layer has a concentration of silicon present as an oxide of [Si] (percent by mass) and a concentration of manganese present as an oxide of [Mn] (percent by mass), and these parameters satisfy the following conditions (1) and (2):[Si]≦0.25  (1)[Mn]/[Si]≦3.0  (2).
