  • Patent number: 8157928
    Abstract: A main object thereof is to provide a non-oriented electrical steel sheet being excellent in surface characteristics and having both excellent mechanical characteristics and magnetic characteristics necessary for a rotor of rotating machines such as motors and generators which rotate at a high speed, and a method for producing the same. To achieve the object, the present invention provides a non-oriented electrical steel sheet comprising in % by mass: 0.06% or less of C; 3.5% or less of Si; from 0.05% or more to 3.0% or less of Mn; 2.5% or less of Al; 0.30% or less of P; 0.04% or less of S; 0.02% or less of N; at least one element selected from the group consisting of Nb, Ti, Zr and V in the predetermined range; and a balance consisting of Fe and impurities; and having a recrystallized fraction being less than 90%.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2010
    Date of Patent: April 17, 2012
    Assignee: Sumitomo Metal Industries, Ltd.
