An electromagnetic steel sheet having a corrosion-resistant electrically insulating film. The insulating film is formed by spraying and baking, on the steel sheet, a treating liquid containing an emulsion of fine resin particles, a reducing agent and an accelerator. The emulsion of fine resin particles exhibits a weight change peak temperature of not lower than about 400.degree. C. as measured by differential thermal weight measurement conducted while raising the emulsion temperature at a constant rate of temperature rise. The emulsion also substantially resists when contacted by phosphoric acid. The reducing agent is a phosphate ion aqueous solution containing a metal. Also disclosed is a corrosion-resistant core made from the electromagnetic steel sheet.

Electromagnetic steel sheet and a core made therefrom

An electromagnetic steel sheet has an electrically insulating coating with superior weldability, formed by coating a treatment solution on the electromagnetic steel sheet and baking the same, the treatment solution containing a synthetic resin fine-particle emulsion having resistance against chromic and/or bichromic acid and exhibiting a peak temperature not lower than 400.degree. C. at which a weight change rate is maximized when a sample is heated at a constant rate in differential thermal gravimetry, a chromate and/or bichromate base aqueous solution containing at least one kind of two-valence metal, and an organic reducer. The steel sheet is superior in electrical insulation, adhesion, punching ability, weldability and corrosion resistance.

Electromagnetic steel sheet having an electrically insulating coating

A surface treatment method for tin-free steel, which comprises applying a water solution, containing a polymer obtained from one or two or more kinds of monomers of unsaturated carboxylic acids, on to the surface of a steel sheet having a metallic chromium layer formed thereon and having a film, mainly consisting of hydrated chromic oxide, formed on the above layer, and then conducting heating and drying. The coating of tin-free steel obtained by this method is excellent in adhesiveness and is most suitable for bonded cans requiring high-temperature treatment.
