摘要:
Grain oriented silicon steel sheet on which is formed an insulating coating having a thickness that is not less than 2.5 .mu.m that imparts tension to the steel sheet which does not have an inorganic mineral layer formed during a final annealing step (glass film) and a method of forming on grain oriented silicon steel sheet an insulating coating that is not less than 2.5 .mu.m thick and which imparts tension to the steel sheet which does not have the inorganic mineral layer (glass film) that forms during finish annealing, and a method of forming a tensioning insulating coating on grain oriented silicon steel sheet which has been finish annealed and does not have an inorganic mineral surface layer (glass film), after first forming a layer of SiO.sub.2 not less than 0.001 .mu.m thick on the oriented silicon steel sheet.
