A manufacturing method for steel sheets for containers produces steel sheets with excellent film adhesion qualities. This steel sheet for containers has, on a steel sheet, a chemical conversion coating with a metal Zr content of 1-100 mg/m.sup.2, a P content of 0.1-50 mg/m.sup.2, and an F content of no more than 0.1 mg/m.sup.2, upon which is formed a phenolic resin layer with a C content of 0.1-50 mg/m.sup.2. Moreover, the manufacturing method for steel sheets for containers is a method for obtaining the steel sheet for containers wherein the chemical conversion coating is formed on the steel sheet by subjecting the steel sheet to immersion in or electrolytic treatment with a treatment solution containing Zr ions, phosphoric acid ions, and F ions; and subsequently, the steel sheet upon which the chemical conversion coating has been formed is immersed in, or undergoes topical application of, an aqueous solution containing phenolic resin, then dried.

Described herein are methods of preparing nanolaminated brass coatings and components having desirable and useful properties. Also described are nanolaminated brass components and plastic and polymeric substrates coated with nanolaminated brass coatings having desirable and useful properties.

To provide a copper-clad laminate which maintains adhesion between a resin film and a conductor layer and which suppresses the occurrence of wrinkles. A copper-clad laminate has a base film containing a thermoplastic resin, an underlying metal layer film-formed on a surface of the base film by a dry plating method, and a copper layer film-formed on a surface of the underlying metal layer. The underlying metal layer has a mean thickness of 0.3 to 1.9 nm. Since the underlying metal layer has a mean thickness of 0.3 nm or more, it is possible to maintain adhesion between the base film and a conductor layer. Since the underlying metal layer has a mean thickness of 1.9 nm or less, it is possible to suppress an increase in the temperature of a film during film-forming of the underlying metal layer, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of wrinkles.
