Abstract
Disclosed is a steel sheet having excellent hydrophilicity and conductivity. The steel sheet having excellent hydrophilicity and conductivity according to an embodiment may include a joint structure on the steel sheet, wherein the joint structure includes microprotrusions having inter-pitch intervals of 1 to 500 nm in an area fraction of 20% or more.
Claims11
A steel sheet comprising a joint structure on the steel sheet, wherein the joint structure includes microprotrusions with inter-pitch intervals of 1 to 500 nm in an area fraction of 20% or more, wherein among the microprotrusions, prismatic microprotrusions are comprised in an area fraction of 20% or more,
- wherein the prismatic microprotrusions are microprotrusions in which three different polygonal faces with the same area or different areas share one vertex, an angle between normal vectors of the faces is more than 0° but less than 180°, and an area of a largest face among the three different faces sharing one vertex is less than 40,000 nm2, and a sum of the areas of the three faces is less than 60,000 nm2.
A steel sheet comprising a joint structure on the steel sheet, wherein the joint structure includes microprotrusions with inter-pitch intervals of 1 to 500 nm in an area fraction of 20% or more, wherein among the microprotrusions, rod-shaped microprotrusions are comprised in an area fraction of 20% or more,
- wherein the rod-shaped microprotrusions are microprotrusions in the form of rods, each including a circular or polygonal base and a lateral face(s) vertically extending from the circular or polygonal base, an angle between a normal vector of the base and a normal vector of a surface of the steel sheet is from 0 to 90°, and a height of the lateral face is 50 nm or more.
A steel sheet comprising a joint structure on the steel sheet, wherein the joint structure includes microprotrusions with inter-pitch intervals of 1 to 500 nm in an area fraction of 20% or more, wherein among the microprotrusions, needle-shaped microprotrusions are comprised in an area fraction of 20% or more,
- wherein the needle-shaped microprotrusions are three-dimensional figures each including a curve or straight line continuously extending in a radial form from one vertex toward the steel sheet, wherein an angle between the radially extending curve or straight line and a normal vector of a surface of a steel sheet is more than 90° but not more than 180° and a vertical distance from the vertex to the surface of the steel sheet is 50 nm or more.
