Abstract
A method for manufacturing an alloy sheet for a shadow mask is provided which includes: (i) annealing a hot-rolled sheet containing Fe and Ni at a temperature of 910.degree. to 990.degree. C.; (ii) cold-rolling the annealed hot-rolled sheet from step (i) to produce a cold-rolled sheet; (iii) crystallization annealing of the cold-rolled sheet from step (ii); (iv) cold-rolling the annealed cold rolled sheet from step (iii); (v) finish recrystallization annealing step of the cold-rolled sheet of step (iv); (vi) finish cold-rolling of the sheet from step (v) at a cold-rolling reduction ratio R (%) satisfying the following equations: 16.ltoreq.R.ltoreq.75 and 6.38 D-133.9.ltoreq.R.ltoreq.6.38 D-51.0 wherein D is the average austenite grain size in .mu.m; (vii) softening annealing the sheet from step (vi) at a temperature of 720.degree. to 790.degree. C. for 2 to 40 minutes before press-forming and at conditions of temperature T in .degree.C. and time t in minutes which satisfy the following equation :
