Technical field
[0001]
 The present invention relates to an electromagnetic steel sheet.
Background technique
[0002]
 Electrical steel sheet or used in a corrosive environment, or is transported. For example, electromagnetic steel plates or used in areas of high temperature and high humidity, or it is marine transportation. At the time of the maritime transport, a large amount of salt comes flying. Therefore, the electrical steel sheet rust resistance is required. Insulating film on the surface of the electrical steel sheet in order to obtain rust resistance is formed. As the insulating film, and a chromate-based insulation coating. Salt-based insulating film chromic acid show excellent rust resistance but hexavalent chromium, which is used as a raw material for chromate-based insulating film having a carcinogenic. Therefore, the development of the insulating coating which can be formed without the use of hexavalent chromium in the raw material has been demanded.
[0003]
 Hexavalent chromium can be formed without using a raw material insulating coating as phosphate-based insulating film, and a silica-based insulating film, and zirconium-based insulating film (Patent Documents 1 to 12). However, these in the insulating film, no rust resistance comparable to salt chromic acid-based insulating coatings were obtained. Although improved rust resistance when thick insulating coatings, weldability and crimping properties as insulating film is thick is reduced.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0013]
 Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, it will be described in detail embodiments of the present invention. Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of an electromagnetic steel sheet according to the embodiment of the present invention.
[0014]
 The electrical steel sheet 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the base material 2 of the electromagnetic steel, and is formed on the surface of the base 2, an insulating film containing a polyvalent metal phosphate salts and Fe 3 are included. Base material 2 has a composition suitable for grain-oriented electrical steel sheet or non-oriented electrical steel sheet. Polyvalent metal phosphate salts include, for example, Al, Zn, Mg, or Ca, or any combination thereof. The following may represent Al, Zn, Mg or Ca, or any combination thereof in M.
[0015]
 In the region from the surface of the insulating coating 3 to a second depth from the first depth, for all elements, the ratio of Fe bound to O (atomic%) C Fe-O , the ratio of P (atomic%) C P when a "= C Q Fe-O / C P maximum value" represented by the parameter Q is less than or equal to 1.3 times the average value, preferably a mean value of 0.4 to 0.8 less. The first depth is the depth of 20nm from the surface of the insulating coating 3, the second depth is the ratio between depth equal proportion of metal Fe of P.
[0016]
 Although details will be described later, the parameter Q is an index that reflects the uniformity of denseness and composition of the insulating coating, insulating coating satisfies the above relationship 3 dense and uniform than the insulating film included in conventional electromagnetic steel sheets is there. Dense and composition uniform insulating coating 3 is to suppress permeation of salt and water, which cause corrosion, has excellent rust resistance. Therefore, according to the electrical steel sheet 1, it is possible to obtain the hexavalent chromium without the material of the insulating coating 3, an excellent rust resistance without reducing the weldability and crimping properties.
[0017]
 Next, a method for manufacturing the electrical steel sheet 1. In this way, by applying a polyvalent metal phosphate containing M, a coating solution comprising a chelating agent and water to the base material of the electromagnetic steel, baking. The following may represent Al, Zn, Mg or Ca, or any combination thereof in M. The water, the total concentration of Ca ions and Mg ions used as the 100ppm or less. The polyvalent metal phosphate, aluminum primary phosphate, the first zinc phosphate, the first magnesium phosphate and a first calcium phosphate are exemplified. Hereinafter, aluminum phosphate, zinc phosphate, magnesium phosphate, calcium phosphate shows a first aluminum phosphate respectively, the first zinc phosphate, magnesium primary phosphate, the first calcium phosphate.
[0018]
 Terminal ends of phosphate during the baking of the coating liquid insulation coating is formed by crosslinking in dehydration condensation reaction. As Scheme dehydration condensation reaction, it is exemplified as follows. Here, the chelating agent "HO-R-OH", describes a metal "M".
 P-OH + HO-P → P-O-P ( chemical formula
 1) P-OH Tasu HO-P Tasu HO-R-OH → P-O-R-O-P (chemical formula
 2) P-OH Tasu HO-P Tasu HO-R-OH Tasu M
           → P- O-M-O-R- O-P ( chemical formula
 3) P-OH Tasu HO-P Tasu HO-R-OH Tasu 2M
           → P-O-M-O-R-O-M-O-P (chemical formula 4)
[0019]
 On the other hand, it consists of a polyvalent metal phosphate, and water, if the coating liquid does not contain a chelating agent is used, although the reaction of Formula 1 occurs, no reaction of Formula 2 to Formula 4. Therefore, when the coating solution containing a chelating agent is used, than if the coating liquid does not contain a chelating agent is used there are many cross-linking points in the insulating film, a high rust resistance can be obtained. The number of the more bonds of the chelating agent is more crosslinking points is large, a higher rust resistance can be obtained.
[0020]
 The chelating agent, for example, oxycarboxylic acid, a dicarboxylic acid or phosphonic acid-based chelating agent used. As oxycarboxylic acid chelating agent, malic acid, glycolic acid and lactic acid are exemplified. As dicarboxylic acid chelating agent, oxalic acid, malonic acid and succinic acid. The phosphonic acid chelating agent, an amino trimethylene phosphonic acid, hydroxy ethylidene mono acid and Hiroki shea diphosphonic acid.
[0021]
 The amount of the chelating agent included in the coating solution is 1% by mass to 30% by weight, based on the weight of the insulation coating after baking. Since the coating solution containing phosphate salt is acidic, it does not end the drying of the coating liquid, and, while the coating liquid is held in the acidic and Fe from the base material is eluted into the coating liquid. Then, Fe is excessively eluted, exceeds the reaction threshold of the chelating agent, are generated iron phosphate and iron hydroxide, the parameter Q is not meet the above conditions the insulating coatings were obtained. Such behavior amount of the chelating agent is remarkable when less than 1% by weight. Therefore, the amount of chelating agent is 1 mass% or more with respect to the mass of the insulating film after baking. On the other hand, the amount of chelating agent is in the than 30 wt%, phosphate in the coating solution is less than 70 mass%, no sufficient heat resistance can not be obtained in the insulating coating. Therefore, the amount of chelating agent is less than 30% by weight, relative to the weight of the insulation coating after baking.
[0022]
 Although chelating agents are active compounds, energetically become stable upon reaction with metal, not exhibit sufficient activity. Therefore, to maintain a high activity of the chelating agent, a metal other than the metal contained in the phosphate salt is not reacting with the chelating agent prior to baking of the coating liquid is completed. Therefore, it is preferable that low concentrations of highly reactive metal ions with water chelating agent. Such metal ions, Ca ions and Mg ions are exemplified. The total concentration of Ca ions and Mg ions in 100ppm exceeds, decreases the activity of the chelating agent. Therefore, the total concentration of Ca ions and Mg ions are at 100ppm or less and preferably 70ppm or less. The less well Ca ions and Mg alkaline earth metal ions other than ion.
[0023]
 Chelating agent has a hydroxyl group at a terminal, hydroxyl groups easy to take the association state (hydrogen bond) represented by the Chemical Formula 5.
 R-OH ··· O = R (chemical formula 5)
[0024]
 When the hydroxyl of the degree of association of the chelating agent (the degree of hydrogen bonding) is high, the crosslinking reaction hardly occurs represented by Formula 2 to Formula 4. Therefore, application of the coating solution is preferably performed as the degree of association is as small as possible. For example, when performing coating using a roller (roll coating) is a shear force imparted to the coating solution, it is preferable to apply the coating solution while reducing the degree of association of the chelating agent. The diameter of the roller is reduced, and, by increasing the moving speed of the base material, it is possible to impart a proper shearing force to solve the associated state. For example, it is preferable that a diameter of more than 60 m / min the moving speed of the base material with the following roller 700 mm, that the moving speed of the base material to 70m / min or more using the following roller 500mm diameter more preferable.
[0025]
 Baking of the coating solution is performed at temperatures above 250 ° C., the temperature of the base material, for example, Atsushi Nobori rate of about 30 ° C. from room temperature to 100 ° C. (first heating rate) and 8 ° C. / sec or more at the time of application, heating rate from 0.99 ° C. to 250 ° C. (second heating rate) lower than the first heating rate. Temperature during coating is equal to the temperature of substantially the coating solution.
[0026]
 Progress meeting the foregoing chelating agents, it does not occur if there are no fluidity of the coating solution. Therefore, in order to make the degree of association as low as possible, the first heating rate up to the boiling point of water (100 ° C.) is preferably high. In a less than 1 heating rate 8 ° C. / sec, since the increased association of the chelating agent is rapidly during warm, the crosslinking reaction hardly occurs, represented by Formula 2 to Formula 4. Therefore, the first heating rate is set to 8 ° C. / sec or more.
[0027]
 Degradation and volatilization of the crosslinking reaction and a chelating agent of the phosphate salt and a chelating agent of Formula 1 to Formula 4 occurs in a temperature range of 0.99 ° C. - 250 ° C.. Therefore, by decreasing the second heating rate from 0.99 ° C. to 250 ° C., it can promote the crosslinking reaction while suppressing the degradation of the chelating agent. However, reduction of the rate of temperature rise can lead to reduced productivity. On the other hand, the crosslinking reaction of the chelating agent varies depending on the degree of association of the above-mentioned chelating agents. Therefore, the first heating rate is increased, if reducing the degree of association of the chelating agent, increasing the second heating rate, it is possible to accelerate the crosslinking reaction between the phosphate salt and a chelating agent . On the other hand, the first heating rate is small, when the degree of association of the chelating agent becomes large, unless lower second heating rate accordingly, the crosslinking reaction of the chelating agent and the phosphate enough It can not be allowed to proceed to. The study of the present inventors, and the first heating rate 8 ° C. / sec or more, if the second heating rate is lower than the first heating rate, phosphate salt and chelate according to degree of association of the chelating agent crosslinking reaction between agent proceeds, it has been found that excellent rust resistance can be obtained. However, if the second heating rate is excessively large, for example in 18 ° C. / sec greater, even first heating rate 8 ° C. / sec or more, crosslinking does not sufficiently complete, excellent rust resistance can not be obtained. Therefore, the second heating rate is set to 18 ° C. / sec or less. On the other hand, the second heating rate is higher productivity is lowered low, it becomes significant at less than 5 ° C. / sec. Therefore, the second heating rate is preferably between 5 ° C. / sec or more.
[0028]
 It is possible to manufacture the electrical steel sheet 1 through the coating and baking of the coating liquid to the base material of such an electromagnetic steel.
[0029]
 The coating solution may contain an organic resin. The organic resin contained in the coating liquid comprises an action to suppress the wear of the punching die. Thus, by using a coating solution containing an organic resin, punching of the electrical steel sheet is improved. The organic resin is preferably used as water-dispersible organic emulsion. When water dispersible organic emulsion is used, Ca ions contained therein, alkaline earth metal ions such as Mg ions is preferably as small as possible. As the organic resin, an acrylic resin, an acrylic styrene resin, alkyd resin, polyester resin, silicone resin, fluorine resin, polyolefin resins, styrene resins, vinyl acetate resins, epoxy resins, phenolic resins, urethane resins and melamine resins.
[0030]
 Next, the operation of the chelating agent.
[0031]
 The present inventors have found that in order to clarify the effect of the chelating agent, the insulating film formed using a coating solution containing no insulating film and the chelating agent was formed using a coating solution containing a chelating agent, X-rays photoelectron spectroscopy: was analyzed by (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS). At this time, using aluminum phosphate as a polyvalent metal phosphate contained in the coating liquid. In this analysis, using Quantera SXM made by ULVAC-PHI, Inc. as an analytical device, using mono AlKα line (hv = 1486.6 eV) as the X-ray source. The region from the surface of the insulating coating to 1000nm to a depth of about a target for measurement, and etching the insulating film by a sputtering method using argon ions, each time the etching proceeds about 15 nm, various in circular area of ​​200μm in diameter was measured ratio (atomic%) of to all elements of the element. Etching speed was 4.6nm / min.
[0032]
 Elements to be measured, carbon (C), oxygen (O), aluminum (Al), and phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe). The proportion of these elements were measured using an X-ray photoelectron absorption spectrum specific to each element. The Fe, O and bound Fe and metallic Fe is included, of which only Fe bound to O are incorporated into the crosslinked structure of the insulating film. Therefore, for Fe, as follows, to distinguish the percentage of the percentage of Fe bound to O and metal Fe. 2p of Fe 3/2 among the X-ray photoelectron absorption spectrum attributable to the track, those derived from metal Fe shows a peak top in the binding energy of around 707EV, those derived from Fe bound to O, the 711EV It shows a peak top to the binding energy of the vicinity. By utilizing this phenomenon, with respect to the absorption spectrum having a peak top near the absorption spectrum and 711eV having a peak top near 707EV, it performs fitting with the Lorentz function, the ratio of metal Fe with a ratio of the respective absorption area and O was calculated the ratio of bound Fe and. Figure 2A, shows the XPS analysis results of the insulating film formed using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, in Figure 2B, shows the XPS analysis results of an insulating film formed by using a coating solution containing a chelating agent.
[0033]
 As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the presence or absence of a chelating agent, for all elements, the ratio of Fe bound to O (C Fe-O distribution and ratio of P in) (C P ) were different. Accordingly, the present inventors have ratio C P ratio C for Fe-O was calculated ratio (parameter Q). Figure 3A, shows the distribution of parameter Q of the formed insulating film using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, shown in Figure 3B, the distribution of the parameters Q of the formed insulating film using a coating solution containing a chelating agent . Portion to a depth of 20nm from the surface of the insulating coating is susceptible to external factors of the insulating coating. Ratio C P ratio of metal Fe (C Fe ) equal depth, the depth of the interface between the base material of substantially insulating film and the electromagnetic steel. Therefore, the depth of 20nm from the surface of the insulating coating, the ratio C P is the ratio C Fe region to a depth equal it is important for the evaluation of insulating coating.
[0034]
 As shown in FIG. 3A, the insulating film formed using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, the parameter Q, when based on the depth of 20nm from the surface of the insulating film, the interface between the insulating film and the base material toward reduced once, then, it had increased. Further, there is a large difference between the minimum value of the parameter Q (about 0.6) and the maximum value (about 1.1). On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3B, the insulating film formed by using a coating solution containing a chelating agent, parameters Q, when based on the depth of 20nm from the surface of the insulating film, the interface between the insulating coating and the base metal It was increased gradually toward the. The minimum value of the parameter Q (about 0.5) and a small difference between the maximum value (approximately 0.7), the parameter Q was totally small.
[0035]
 The higher the percentage of binding of the phosphate and Fe, the parameter Q becomes larger. Binding of phosphate and Fe, as a direct binding of phosphate and a chelating agent is not formed densely. Thus, as the parameter Q is large, a low denseness of the insulating coating. The variation of the parameters Q reflects fluctuation of the composition of the insulating coating. Therefore, the larger the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the parameter Q, low uniformity of the composition of the insulating coating. For these reasons, the insulation coating the coating liquid was formed by using a containing chelating agent, than the insulating film formed using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, the crosslinking reaction proceeds sufficiently, a dense and uniform crosslinked state (coating structure) is formed, it can be said that the resulting corrosion resistance including excellent rust resistance.
[0036]
 The present inventors have focused on results obtained by these XPS analysis, the ratio C Fe-O of distribution and rate C P considered distribution greatly contributes to the improvement of rust resistance of the insulating coating, the parameter Q were investigated in detail the relationship between the rust resistance and.
[0037]
 Here will be described an evaluation method for rust resistance.
[0038]
 As a test for evaluating the rust resistance of the electrical steel sheet, salt spray test stipulated in the wet test and JIS Z 2371 is specified in JIS K 2246 are exemplified. However, corrosive environments in these tests is greatly different from the corrosive environment, such as rust caused in the magnetic steel sheets, necessarily, it can not be said that the rust resistance of the electrical steel sheet can be properly evaluated.
[0039]
 Accordingly, the present inventors have examined how you can properly evaluate the rust resistance in corrosive environments, such as rust electrical steel sheet is produced. As a result, it was found that the rust resistance can be suitably evaluated by the following method. In this way, the droplets of aqueous sodium chloride solution having a different concentration on the surface of the electrical steel sheet having an insulation coating is dried by attaching each 0.5 [mu] l, temperature of 50 ° C., a relative humidity RH of 90% constant temperature and humidity electromagnetic steel plates to hold 48 hours to an atmosphere. It may be used thermo-hygrostat. Thereafter, to confirm the presence or absence of rust, to identify the concentration of sodium chloride rust in the electrical steel sheet does not occur. Then, to evaluate the rust resistance based on the concentration of sodium chloride rust is not generated.
[0040]
 That is, in this way, electromagnetic steel sheets are exposed to a humid atmosphere after deposition and drying of the droplets of aqueous sodium chloride solution. Such processes, storage, transportation and adhered salt on the surface of the electrical steel sheet during use, that then salt humidity rises to is deliquescent, similar to a corrosive environment where electromagnetic steel plates are exposed . Higher concentration of sodium chloride is high, the amount of sodium chloride remaining after drying is often prone to rust. Accordingly, performs observation while the concentration of the aqueous sodium chloride solution stepwise decreased, the concentration of rust is not generated (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "limit sodium chloride concentration") if identifying, on the basis of this limit concentration of sodium chloride , it is possible to evaluate the rust resistance in corrosive environments in which the electromagnetic steel sheets are actually exposed quantitatively.
[0041]
 Figure 4A ~ FIG 4E, an example of a test result by the method. In this test, the concentration of sodium chloride, 1.0 wt% (Fig. 4A), 0.3 wt% (Fig. 4B), 0.1 wt% (Fig. 4C), 0.03 wt% (Fig. 4D) or 0 was .01% by weight (Fig. 4E). Then, as shown in FIG. 4A ~ Figure 4E, the concentration of sodium chloride is 1% by mass, 0.3% by weight, rust was confirmed in the case of 0.1 wt% or 0.03 wt%, the concentration of sodium chloride There rust was not observed in the case of 0.01 mass%. Therefore, limit the sodium chloride concentration of the electrical steel sheet is 0.01 wt%. The present inventors have also exceeded the retention time in the atmosphere of constant temperature and humidity is 48 hours, I am sure that such rust situation hardly changes.
[0042]
 Figure 5A, shows an example of the test results by the above method for electrical steel sheet to form an insulating film using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, in Figure 5B, an insulating film using a coating solution containing a chelating agent an example of a test result by the method for forming the electromagnetic steel sheets. Also it includes phosphoric acid as aluminum polyvalent metal phosphate salt to any of the coating solution. In the electromagnetic steel plates forming the insulating film using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, as shown in FIG. 5A, the concentration rust was observed when using a 0.03 mass% aqueous sodium chloride solution. On the other hand, in the electromagnetic steel sheets forming the insulating film using a coating solution containing a chelating agent, as shown in FIG. 5B, the concentration rust is not confirmed even in the case of using a 0.2 wt% aqueous sodium chloride solution.
[0043]
 Thus, in the case of forming an insulating film by using a coating solution containing a chelating agent, than the case of forming the insulating film using a coating solution containing no chelating agent, high limit sodium chloride concentration, excellent rust resistance can be obtained.
[0044]
 From the above, which affect the chelating agent distribution parameter Q, in order to obtain an excellent rust resistance is important to the distribution of the parameters Q appropriate. Then, the electrical steel sheet 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the first depth the second depth from the (depth 20nm from the surface of the insulating film 3) (P ratio metal Fe from the surface of the insulating coating 3 in the region of up ratio equal depth) of, and the maximum value of the parameter Q is less 1.3 times the average value, preferably the average value of the parameter Q is 0.4 to 0.8. Therefore, according to the electrical steel sheet 1, it is possible to obtain an excellent rust resistance.
[0045]
 If the maximum value of the parameter Q is 1.3 times greater than the average value, partially crystallized occur phosphate Fe, the interface of the crystallized portion and the portion not crystallized is formed, the corrosion factor it is easy to transmission of the insulating film can not be obtained a sufficient denseness and uniformity corrosion resistance is lowered. Therefore, the maximum value of the parameter Q is less 1.3 times the average value. The maximum value of the parameter Q is preferably less 1.2 times the average value.
[0046]
 The average value of the parameter Q is less than 0.4, it may be less adhesion between the insulating film and the base material. Therefore, it is preferable that the average value of the parameter Q is 0.4 or more, and more preferably 0.5 or more. On the other hand, the average value of the parameter Q is more than 0.8, variation in the composition of the insulating coating is large, there may not be obtained excellent rust resistance. Therefore, it is preferable that the average value of the parameter Q is 0.8 or less, more preferably 0.7 or less.
[0047]
 According to the electromagnetic steel sheet 1 according to this embodiment, it is possible to obtain an excellent rust resistance hexavalent chromium without the material of the insulating coating 3. For example, electromagnetic steel sheets 1 also at high airborne under salinity environments such as during sea transport, also exhibit sufficient rust resistance in a high temperature and high humidity environment corresponding to the subtropical or tropical. It is not necessary to form a thick insulating film 3, can avoid a decrease in weldability and crimping properties.
[0048]
 The above embodiments are all merely illustrate concrete examples of implementing the present invention, in which technical scope of the present invention should not be limitedly interpreted. That is, the present invention is its technical idea or without departing from the essential characteristics thereof, can be implemented in various forms.
