Estimating the term…
A grain oriented silicon steel sheet having excellent primary glass film property and magnetic property, comprising 2.0 to 5.0% by weight of Si, wherein a primary glass film formed during secondary recrystallization annealing is composed mainly of forsterite (Mg.sub.2 SiO.sub.4) and an oxide containing Al, mainly of spinel (MgAl.sub.2 O.sub.4), or Al and Si, mainly of cordierite (MgO.sub.2 Al.sub.4 Si.sub.5 O.sub.18) and/or sapphirine (Mg.sub.4 Al.sub.10 Si.sub.2 O.sub.23), and in an analysis of the surface of the steel sheet by glow discharge optical emission spectrometry analysis (GDS analysis), a peak derived from Al is separated from a peak derived from Mg, and, preferably, the peak derived from Al is separated from the peak derived from Mg and the distance (time) from the surface of the steel sheet at which the peak derived from Al is 1.2 times or more the distance from the surface of the steel sheet at which the peak derived from Mg appears.
A grain-oriented silicon steel strip or sheet having a secondary recrystallized grain having a stable Goss orientation through formation of a stable primary glass film on the surface of the silicon steel strip or sheet, said strip or sheet comprising 2.0 to 5.0% by weight of Si and 0.010 to 0.065% by weight Al before start of secondary recrystallization, wherein the primary glass film formed during secondary recrystallization annealing is composed substantially of forsterite (Mg.sub.2 SiO.sub.4) and spinel (MgAl.sub.2 O.sub.4) in which Al is diffused on the surface of the steel strip or sheet from the inside of the strip or sheet;
