Abstract

The composition and structure of glass (silicate) film formed during secondary recrystallization annealing of grain- oriented 3% Si steel using aluminum nitride as an inhibitor was investigated. The glass film consisted of spinel (MgO AI2O3) and forsterite [2(MgO) SiO2], and the AI2O3 component of spinel originates from aluminum generated by the decomposition of aluminum nitride. From the location and the morphology of the spinel, it was concluded that aluminum reacts with forsterite to form spinel.
