Abstract

To impart an excellent corrosion resistance and adherence to the surface of tinplate while avoiding the production of sludge in the treatment bath during continuous treatment, a bath is used that contains phosphate ions, from 0.1 to 5.0 g/L of chelating agent, and tin ions; has a pH from 2.0 to 4.5; is essentially free of oxidizing agent and ferric ion; and has an oxidation-reduction potential of .ltoreq.450 mV more oxidizing than a silver-saturated silver chloride reference electrode.
