Abstract

Disclosed is a process for the preparation of a grain oriented electrical steel sheet having a high flux desnity, which comprises hot-rolling a slab comprising 1.5 to 4.8% by weight of Si, 0.012 to 0.050 by weight of acid-soluble Al, up to 0.012% by weight of at least one member selected from S and Se, 0.0010 to 0.0120% by weight of N, Mn in an amount of up to 0.45% by weight which satisfies the requirement of Mn/(S+Se).gtoreq.4.0 and 0.005 to 0.0080% by weight of B, with the balance comprising Fe and unavoidable impurities, and optionally, further comprising 0.0020 to 0.0120% by weight of Ti, performing cold rolling once or at least twice with intermediate annealing to obtain a final thickness, performing decarburization annealing in a wet hydrogen atomsphere, coating an annealing separator on the steel sheet surface, performing finish annealing for a secondary recrystallization and purification of the steel, and performing a nitriding treatment during the period of from the point of termination of final cold rolling to the point of initiation of secondary recrystallization at the finish annealing step. Furthermore, the above-mentioned slab is heated at a temperature lower than 12…
