Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021165088A1] The invention relates to a method for improving the wettability of a surface-finished steel sheet (10), in which a protective coating (2) based on Zn-Al-Mg is applied, wherein a native oxide layer comprising at least ZnO, Al2O3 and MgO is formed after the application of the protective coating (2) and the steel sheet comprising the native oxide layer is subjected to at least one further treatment, to modify the native oxide layer, wherein the at least one further treatment comprises at least one heat treatment at a temperature for a period in a non-reducing atmosphere, wherein the non-reducing atmosphere, the temperature and the duration of the heat treatment are harmonized with one another in such a manner that the native oxide layer post-oxidizes, wherein in particular the resulting post-oxidized oxide layer (3) arising is greater than the native oxide layer.
