Abstract

A Fe--Ni based alloy sheet having superior surface characteristic and superior etchability, essentially consisting, by weight, of 30 to 50% nickel, 0.05 to 0.5% manganese, 0.001 to 0.02% silicon, not more than 0.0015% aluminum, not more than 150 ppm oxygen, and the balance iron and incidental impurities, the value of Mn content(weight %)/Si content (weight %) being not less than 20. Preferably, silicon content is 0.001 to 0.01%, aluminum being not more than 0.0005%, oxygen being not more than 90 ppm, sulfur which is one of important impurities being not more than 0.005%, and boron which is one of important impurities being not more than 0.005%.
