Abstract
A galvanized steel sheet includes a zinc plating layer which is disposed on a steel sheet containing 0.01% to 0.15% C, 0.001% to 2.0% Si, 0.1% to 3.0% Mn, 0.001% to 1.0% Al, 0.005% to 0.060% P, and 0.01% or less S on a mass basis, the remainder being Fe and unavoidable impurities, and which has a mass per unit area 20 g/mto 120 g/m. An oxide of at least one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Si, Mn, Al, and P is present in a surface portion of the steel sheet that lies directly under the zinc plating layer and that extends up to 100 μm from the surface of a base steel sheet. The amount of the oxide per unit area is 0.05 g/mor less in total. The steel sheet has excellent corrosion resistance, anti-powdering property during heavy machining, and strength.
