Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This grain-oriented electrical steel sheet includes a steel sheet, an insulation coating disposed on the steel sheet, and a spinel present at a part on the steel sheet at an interface between the steel sheet and the insulation coating by being fitted into the insulation coating, in which an amount of the spinel is 5 to 50 mg/m 2 per unit area of a surface of the steel sheet.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A grain-oriented electrical steel sheet comprising: a steel sheet; an insulation coating disposed on the steel sheet; and a spinel formed on a part on the steel sheet at an interface between the steel sheet and the insulation coating, wherein the spinel protrudes from the steel sheet toward the insulation coating, wherein an amount of the spinel is 5 to 50 mg/m 2 per unit area of a surface of the steel sheet, and wherein the grain-oriented steel sheet does not contain a forsterite film. 2. A manufacturing method of a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet, which is a manufacturing method of the grain-oriented electrical steel sheet according to claim 1 , comprising: an annealing separator applying process in which an annealing separator containing Al 2 O 3 and MgO is applied to a decarburization-annealed steel sheet; a final annealing process in which final annealing is performed on the steel sheet; a powder removing process in which a surplus annealing separator on a surface of the steel sheet after the final annealing process is removed; and an insulation coating forming process in which the steel sheet after the powder removing process is coated with a coating liquid containing colloidal silica and is baked to form an insulation coating on the steel sheet, wherein the Al 2 O 3 is formed of a mixed phase containing a κ phase and an α phase, a BET specific surface area of the MgO is 5.0 m 2 /g or less, and a proportion of a weight of the MgO in a total weight of the Al 2 O 3 and the MgO is 5 to 50%. 3. The manufacturing method of a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet according to claim 2 , wherein a proportion of the κ phase in the Al 2 O 3 is 5.0 to 50.0% by mass. 4. The manufacturing method of a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet according to claim 3 , wherein an application amount of the annealing separator in the annealing separator applying process is 5 to 20 g/m 2 . 5. The manufacturing method of a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet according to claim 2 , wherein an application amount of the annealing separator in the annealing separator applying process is 5 to 20 g/m 2 .
