Abstract
A method is provided to reduce the core loss measured at frequencies of 60 Hz or higher in light-gauge, grain-oriented, silicon steel sheet or strip of less than 7 mil thickness and conventional permeability of .mu.10<1850 at 60 Hz, the method includes coating such steel with tension-inducing stress coatings in order to exert tensile stresses on the silicon steel of at least approximately 600 psi and further provides a method with the step of preparing the surfaces of the light-gage, grain-oriented, silicon steel products to support the stresses of the applied tension-inducing stress coatings in order to prevent spalling of the coatings.
