Abstract
Adhesion of nickel plated steel sheets with each other, which is apt to occur during producing a steel sheet in which nickel is diffused by heat treatment of a nickel plated steel sheet in an annealing furnace, is prevented. A nickel plated steel sheet having a nickel-iron diffusion layer of 0.5-10 .mu.m thickness, a nickel plated layer thereon of 0.5-10 .mu.m thickness, and a silicon oxide layer thereon as an amount of silicon of 0.1-2.5 mg/m.sup.2 are formed on at least one face of a cold rolled steel plate. After the nickel is plated on the cold rolled steel plate, silicon hydrate is precipitated by dipping or electrolysis treatment in a bath of sodium orthosilicate as a main component, followed by heat treatment.
