Preparation of 6.5 % silicon steel sheets with (100) texture
6.5 % silicon steel sheets with almost (100) texture can be obtained by using two methods of Method's A and B. In Method A, 6.5 % silicon sheets were annealed in the vacuum of 1.0 Pa after dipping the sheets in sulfur solution. In Method B, an annealing in the vacuum of 1.0x 10(-4) Pa was added before the process of Method A. In the samples fabricated by Method B, the average magnetic induction of 800 A/m, B-8 = 1.39 T was larger than that of the conventional 6.5 % silicon sheets (05EX2500 NKK corporation) by about 0. 1 T.
