1 1. Foreword Since the magnetic steel coils had been produced in 1993, CSC had invested more resources to proceed many research programs in order to develop new production technology. As a result, not only the capacity had greatly been increased but many high grade products developed successfully. CSC ensures a stable supply of high quality non-oriented magnetic stell coil to satisfy the requirements of customers’. Magnetic steel coils are a kind of cold rolled steel with special electrical and magnetic properties. Because the silicon was added, magnetic steel previously was called”silicon steel”. Magnetic steel is classified into grain-oriented and non-oriented by their texture structure. Currently only non-oriented steel sheets are available from China Steel. This catalog details general information such as the features, applications, specifications, and other relevant product properties of the magnetic steel coils manufactured by China Strrl. It serves to help downstream users to understand their materials properties. Teamwork Entrepreneurial approach Down-to-earthiness Pursuit of innovation 2. Features and Applications Because non-oriented magnetic steel has the features of uniform electrical and magnetic properties, it is the most suitable material for rotating machines. Generally the magnetic steel coils are required to process the following major properties, include iron loss, magnetic flux density, punchability, weldability, flatness, thickness uniformity and etc. China Steel endeavors continuously not only to improve the magnetic properties, but also to develop new coating film. So far its Products have been well accepted and widely used by downstream users. As for the applications of 2 various grades, please refer to the following Table 1.

There are two kinds of coating film that are design for different applications. Please refer to Table 10 for the properties.

No film peeled after rubbing 50 times witk alcohol. Film is firmly bonded on to motor sheet that it will never peel off due to cutting and punching. Film remains shinning and adheres well after 1 hr at 750˚C protected by N2 gas Area of rust<50% after 5 hrs spraying by 5%, 35˚C NaCl solution. Without Cr-free requirement With Cr-free requirement Note: 1. Wearing resistance is tested by wool grinding that wheel diameter 1120mm, pressure 3.5kg/ cm2, speed 60rpm 9 6. Precaution Notes While in Use 6.1 Avoiding rust and aging: (1)Due to slitting and punching that cause broken coating film, the ruptured surface will easily rusted, particularly in summer season when the relative humidity is high. So, it needs careful package and anti-rust treatment. (2)For having better magnetic property, magnetic steel generally was produced without temper rolling process. To avoiding coil break in slitting process, it is necessary to keep coils away from long storage time. 6.2 Stress-relief annealing Magnetic properties of magnetic steel coils will be deteriorated by mechancal strains when it was sheared and punched into lamminations or cores. In order to relieve these stresss and restore the original magnetic properties, general stress-relief annealing is necessary. The following points are observed when laminations or cores are processed to stres-relief annealing. (1)There are two kinds of coating film to be used in CSC’magnetic steel coils and they are adapted to various annealing temperature. Please refer the informations of table10when strees-relief is necessary to be done. (2)The magnetic property almost was not affected by ordinary industrial cooling rate scale, but abrupt heating and cooling will make distortion in cores. However, cooling should be taken until it reaches 350˚C so that no stain will occur in material. (3)Since carburization and excessive oxidation will effect the deterioration of magnetic properties of steel, the atmospheric gas must be carefully controlled and the dew point must be kept low. On the other hand, the oiland grease remained during fabrication also must be removed completely, and the low carbon materials are recommended to be used in the base and cover of annealing furnace.
