Abstract
A grain-oriented electrical steel sheet has a base film composed mainly of forsterite on a surface of the grain-oriented electrical steel sheet and an insulating film containing mainly silicate-phosphate glass which is formed on a surface of the base film, in which, by controlling concentrations of Sr, Ca, and Ba in the base film and the insulating film to have specified gradients, the adhesion property and film tension of the insulating film are improved.
