• the carbon content should expediently be limited to a maximum of 0.015% and should preferably be between 0.001 and 0.015%.
• This low initial carbon content is advantageous, inter alia, with regard to the duration of the decarburization annealing in order to achieve an aging-free electrical steel strip or sheet a C content of less than 0.002%.
• surface-active elements such as, for example, antimony and / or tin, leads to a considerable delay in the decarburization reaction.
• the limitation of the carbon content to a maximum of 0.015%, in particular in connection with the setting of the Si and Al content in accordance with (% Si) + 2 (% Al)> 2% ensures complete freedom from transformation of the steel, which with regard to the desired properties of the electrical steel or sheet is particularly advantageous.
• the freedom from transformation of the steel is important for the final annealing, since the set texture is lost when the alpha-gamma phase boundary is exceeded, and for the hot forming, since the ferritic single-phase area is necessary for the targeted formation of cubic texture components during hot rolling.
• surface-active elements such as antimony and / or tin
• a total amount of 0.005 to 0.15%, preferably 0.02 to 0.06% leads to the suppression of the growth of grains with unfavorable (111) Texture components. This is particularly advantageous for long-term annealing in the hood furnace or in the stamping furnace when processing electrical steel that has not been finally annealed.

• phase transformation largely does not occur as a result of the steel composition according to the invention, which is important because the texture generated would be lost if the alpha-gamma phase boundary were exceeded, and this is also important for hot forming because of the targeted formation cubic texture components during hot rolling the ferritic single phase area is necessary.
• the cold forming provided according to the invention with a total degree of deformation of at least 86% while avoiding recrystallizing intermediate annealing also contributes significantly to the formation of cubic texture components.
• the deformation is a maximum of 30% per pass if the slab temperature is in the range between 1000 and 1060 ° C.
• the finish rolling temperature should preferably be between 900 and 960 ° C. This favors the aforementioned layer structure.
• a first section of the cold forming is to be carried out up to a strip thickness of 1.3 to 1.9 mm at an elevated temperature of 180 to 300 ° C.
• a blocking or anchoring of sliding dislocations and thus the activation of other sliding systems or a inhomogeneous deformation (shear bands) can be achieved, which particularly contributes to an increase in the magnetic polarization in the transverse direction.
• a better isotropy of the magnetic properties in the strip plane in the case of electrical steel with a cube-surface texture can be achieved in a further embodiment of the process according to the invention in that the cold-rolled strip is non-recrystallizing at a strip thickness which is still 1.12 to 1.2 times the final thickness Recuperation annealing, in particular between 400 and 500 ° C for 1 to 10 h, subjected and then cold rolled and annealed.

• the final annealing temperature should not be below 900 ° C, because then the grain size of the material is not large enough to achieve a low loss of magnetization.

Stamped parts are then produced in the usual manner from the strips which have not been finally annealed, and a stamped part annealing, e.g. B. according to DIN 46 400 Part 4. To achieve particularly good magnetic properties, however, the duration and temperature of the stamped part annealing should be reduced to e.g. B. 15 h and 950 ° C for steel compositions with surfactants.
