Provided is a method of manufacturing an electrical steel sheet with an adhesive insulating coating that has excellent high-temperature adhesive property and high-temperature oil resistance and, even after being stacked and subjected to stress relief annealing, has excellent magnetic properties (iron loss, magnetic flux density). The method comprises: applying a coating material to at least one side of an electrical steel sheet, the coating material containing (a) an aqueous epoxy resin, (b) a high-temperature hardening crosslinking agent in an amount of 30 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the aqueous epoxy resin, in terms of solid content, (c) metal oxide particles, and (d) a solvent; and baking the coating material applied to the electrical steel sheet, under a condition of a peak steel sheet temperature of 150&#xb0; C. or more and less than 230&#xb0; C.

Method of manufacturing electrical steel sheet with adhesive insulating coating and method of manufacturing stacked electrical steel sheet

A method for forming an insulating coating on an electrical steel sheet is provided. The method includes preparing a treatment solution by adding a Si compound to water and applying the treatment solution to a surface of the electrical steel sheet. Fe in the electrical steel sheet dissolves in the treatment solution and, thereafter, the electrical steel sheet and treatment solution are baked to form the insulating film. In the insulating film, a coating weight of Si in terms of SiOis 50% to 99% of the total coating weight, and a ratio (Fe/Si) of content of Fe to content of Si in the insulating coating is 0.01 to 0.6 on a molar basis.

The disclosure provides an electrical steel sheet with an insulating coating excellent in both punchability and powdering resistance, without any chromium compound being contained in the insulating coating. The electrical steel sheet with an insulating coating includes an electrical steel sheet and an insulating coating formed on the electrical steel sheet. The insulating coating contains Si and particulate organic resin. The organic resin contains primary particles having an average primary particle size of 1.0 &#x3bc;m or less, and 5% or more and 50% or less of the primary particles of the organic resin are agglomerated particles.
