Abstract
Composite plated steel strips comprising a zinc base layer electrodeposited on at least one surface of a steel strip exhibit excellent corrosion resistance with or without painting provided that the zinc base layer contains 0.1 to 10% by weight of cobalt, 0.05 to 5% by weight of chromium, 0.05 to 8% by weight of aluminum, and optionally, 0.05 to 5% by weight of Si, the balance being zinc. Such composite plated steel strips are prepared by subjecting a steel strip to composite electroplating in an acidic zinc plating bath which contains at least one water-soluble compound of Co.sup.2+ in an amount of 0.3 to 60 g/l of metallic cobalt, at least one water-soluble compound of Cr.sup.3+ in an amount of 0.2 to 2.5 g/l of metallic chromium, a pseudo-boehmite like alumina sol in an amount of 0.5 to 20 g/l of alumina, and optionally, colloidal silica in an amount of 0.5 to 20 g/l of silica at pH 1 or higher and a current density of at least 40 A/dm.sup.2.
