Definitions

• the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing electrical steel sheets with insulating coating.
• Insulating coated electrical steel sheet naturally has excellent magnetic properties, which are its basic characteristic, but various other properties are also required in the manufacturing process of motors, transformers, etc. Examples of properties required in the manufacturing process of such products include punchability, weldability (welding of end faces), coating adhesion, and corrosion resistance. It is a well-known fact that adding a resin component to the insulating coating is effective in improving punchability, but the addition of resin can cause blowholes during welding, so achieving both punchability and weldability has been a challenge.
• Patent Document 1 describes a method for manufacturing "electrical steel sheet with an insulating coating that has excellent weldability and punchability, characterized by applying a water-based coating liquid containing a resin and an inorganic component to the surface of the electrical steel sheet, and then heating and baking the coating from the steel sheet side.”
• Patent Document 1 Although weldability and punchability were improved, there was still room for improvement in terms of achieving both weldability and punchability under stricter evaluation conditions.
• the present invention aims to provide a method for manufacturing an insulating coated electrical steel sheet that has excellent punchability and weldability under stricter evaluation conditions.
• the inventors After extensive research to achieve this objective, the inventors have newly discovered that by maintaining within an appropriate range the viscosity of the water-based paint containing the resin and inorganic components used to form the insulating coating, it is possible to obtain an insulating coated electrical steel sheet that is excellent in both punchability and weldability under stricter evaluation conditions. It has been found that the effect of improving punchability and weldability by maintaining within an appropriate range the viscosity of the water-based paint applied to the electrical steel sheet is not limited to the case of heating from the steel sheet side by induction heating as described in Patent Document 1, but can also be obtained when heating is performed from the surface of the coating film formed by the water-based paint, as in a gas furnace or electric furnace.
• the gist and configuration of the present invention which has been completed based on the above findings, are as follows.

• [4] A method for producing an electrical steel sheet with an insulating coating according to any one of [1] to [3], in which one or both of the emulsion resin and the dispersion resin in the water-based paint have a particle size of 30 nm or more.
• the manufacturing method of the insulating coated electrical steel sheet of the present invention makes it possible to manufacture insulating coated electrical steel sheet that is excellent in both punchability and weldability under stricter evaluation conditions.
• the method for manufacturing an electrical steel sheet with an insulating coating includes the steps of preparing a water-based paint, and applying the water-based paint to the surface of the electrical steel sheet and drying it by heating to form an insulating coating.
• the water-based paint contains a resin, an inorganic component, an optional organic reducing agent, an optional B compound, and water, and is characterized in that 50% or more by mass of the resin is composed of one or both of an emulsion resin and a dispersion resin, and the water-based paint has a viscosity of 1.0 mPa ⁇ s or more.
• the electromagnetic steel sheet that serves as the base for the insulating coating there are no particular restrictions on the electromagnetic steel sheet that serves as the base for the insulating coating, but it is preferable to adjust the composition appropriately according to the desired characteristics. For example, increasing resistivity is effective in improving iron loss, so it is preferable to add resistivity-improving components such as Si, Al, Mn, Cr, P, and Ni. The ratio of these components can be determined according to the desired magnetic properties.
• the C and S contained in electrical steel sheets are elements that are detrimental to weldability, and it is also desirable to reduce their content in terms of magnetic properties. Therefore, it is preferable that the C content in electrical steel sheets be 0.01 mass% or less. It is also preferable that the S content in electrical steel sheets be 0.01 mass% or less. There are no particular restrictions on the other trace components, segregation elements such as Sb and Sn, and unavoidable impurities contained in electrical steel sheets.
• the manufacturing method of the electromagnetic steel sheet there are no particular restrictions on the manufacturing method of the electromagnetic steel sheet, and various conventionally known methods can be applied. There are also no particular restrictions on the surface roughness of the steel sheet, but when emphasis is placed on the space factor, it is preferable that the three-dimensional surface roughness SRa be 0.5 ⁇ m or less. Furthermore, there are no particular restrictions on the final thickness of the steel sheet, and various thicknesses can be applied, but from the viewpoint of magnetic properties, it is preferable that the thickness be 0.8 mm or less.
• Water-based paints contain resins and inorganic components. These resins and inorganic components have the property of being soluble or dispersible in water. Water-based paints may also contain one or both of an organic reducing agent and a B compound. Water-based paints may use any type of coating treatment liquid, such as a coating treatment liquid containing at least a chromate and a resin, a coating treatment liquid containing at least a phosphate and a resin, or a coating treatment liquid containing at least an inorganic colloid and a resin. Water-based paints may also contain various components to improve heat resistance or corrosion resistance.
• the type of resin contained in the water-based paint is not particularly limited, and one or more selected from acrylic resin, epoxy resin, urethane resin, phenol resin, styrene resin, amide resin, imide resin, urea resin, vinyl acetate resin, alkyd resin, polyolefin resin, and polyester resin may be used, and these may be used as a single substance, a copolymer, or a mixture.

• the mass ratio of one or both of emulsion resin and dispersion resin in the resin contained in the water-based paint is 50 mass% or more and 100 mass% or less, it means that the mass ratio of completely water-soluble resin without particle size is 0 mass% or more and 50 mass% or less. If the mass ratio of completely water-soluble resin without particle size exceeds 50 mass%, the effect of improving punchability is not obtained satisfactorily.
• so-called monomers such as water-soluble acrylic acid, which are components of the resin, are also included in the calculation of "resin".
• the emulsion resin and/or dispersion resin in the water-based paint preferably have a particle size of 30 nm or more. If the particle size of the emulsion resin and/or dispersion resin is 30 nm or more, the resin area that adheres to the die end face and covers the die tip during punching is suitable, the adhesive wear suppression effect between the die end face and the workpiece is suitable, and punching properties are favorable. There is no particular upper limit on the particle size of the resin, but if the space factor is important, it is preferable that the particle size of the resin be 1 ⁇ m or less. The particle size of the resin can be measured by dynamic light scattering in accordance with JIS 8828:2013.
• the solid mass ratio of the resin to the total mass of the resin, inorganic components, organic reducing agent, and B compound converted into solid content is preferably 0.5 mass% or more and 50 mass% or less.
• the solid mass ratio of the resin is 0.5 mass% or more, the above-mentioned effect of improving punchability (adhesive wear suppression effect) is preferably obtained.
• the solid mass ratio of the resin is 50 mass% or less, the amount of organic matter that decomposes and vaporizes during welding is suitable, blowholes in the weld bead can be suppressed, and weldability is preferably obtained. It is even more preferable that the solid mass ratio of the resin is 40 mass% or less.

• Phosphates can be used as P compounds, and examples of these include aluminum phosphate, magnesium phosphate, calcium phosphate, iron phosphate, and zinc phosphate, and one or more of these can be used.
• Si compounds include colloidal silica, fumed silica, and plate-like silica, and one or more of these can be used. Colloidal silica, fumed silica, and plate-like silica exist in the form of particles in the insulating coating. Multiple types of inorganic compounds may also be contained.
• the solid mass ratio of the inorganic components to the total mass of the resin, inorganic components, organic reducing agent, and B compound converted into solid content is preferably 30 mass% or more, and more preferably 60 mass% or more. Furthermore, if the ratio of the inorganic components is too high, there is a concern that the punchability may deteriorate, so the mass ratio is preferably 80 mass% or less.
• the water-based paint contains an organic reducing agent.
• an organic reducing agent By including an organic reducing agent, the reduction reaction of chromium can be favorably promoted.
• the type of organic reducing agent is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use at least one selected from diols and sugars. In particular, it is more preferable to use one or more diols selected from ethylene glycol and 1,4-butanediol, and one or more sugars selected from glycerin, polyethylene glycol, sucrose, lactose, sucrose, glucose, and fructose.
• the solid mass ratio of the organic reducing agent to the total mass of the resin, inorganic components, organic reducing agent, and B compound converted into solids is preferably 10 mass% or more. Furthermore, if the content of the organic reducing agent is too high, the coating properties after annealing will deteriorate, so the mass ratio is preferably 30 mass% or less.
• the water-based paint contains a B compound.
• B compounds include boric acid, orthoboric acid, metaboric acid, tetraboric acid, sodium metaborate, sodium tetraborate, etc., and these can be used alone or in combination.
• the B compound is not limited to these, and may be, for example, a compound that dissolves in water to generate borate ions, and the borate ions may be linearly or cyclically polymerized.
• the solid mass ratio of B compound to the total mass of the resin, inorganic components, organic reducing agent, and B compound converted into solids is preferably 5 mass% or more. Furthermore, if the content of B compound is too high, the coating properties after annealing will deteriorate, so this mass ratio is preferably 30 mass% or less.
• the water-based paint has a viscosity of 1.0 mPa ⁇ s or more. If the viscosity of the water-based paint is less than 1.0 mPa ⁇ s, the resin particles settle in the paint and tend to form non-uniform aggregates, making it difficult to obtain sufficient weldability under stricter evaluation conditions. The cause of the deterioration of weldability due to non-uniform aggregates is not clear, but it is thought that the presence of non-uniform aggregates of resin particles makes it difficult to remove low-boiling point components in the water-based paint (coating film) whether the steel plate side or the coating film surface side is heated.
• the resin particles can be uniformly dispersed in the paint, thereby suppressing the formation of aggregates.
• the viscosity of the water-based paint is preferably 40 mPa ⁇ s or less, and more preferably 10 mPa ⁇ s or less. If the viscosity is 10 mPa ⁇ s or less, streak-like coating defects called roping can be suitably suppressed when forming a coating on a steel plate.
• the solids concentration of the water-based paint may be adjusted to achieve the desired viscosity, or a viscosity modifier may be added.
• a viscosity modifier There are no particular restrictions on the type of viscosity modifier, and commonly used ones such as acrylic polymers and urethane-modified polyethers may be used.
• the viscosity of the water-based paint in this invention is a value measured after mixing each component in a specified ratio and adjusting to the desired solid concentration.
• the viscosity is also a value measured in accordance with JIS K 6901:2021. For example, it can be measured using a BM type viscometer (manufactured by Tokyo Keiki Co., Ltd.) at a test temperature of 25°C.
• the method for applying the water-based paint can be any method that allows the water-based paint to be applied to the steel plate, and various methods can be applied, such as the roll coater method, bar coater method, air knife method, and spray coater method.
• the heating temperature i.e., the maximum sheet temperature
• the heating temperature may be the temperature required to form the insulating coating, but since a water-based paint is used, it is preferable to set it to 100°C or higher, and more preferably 150°C or higher. By setting it to 100°C or higher, residual water can be suitably suppressed.
• the maximum sheet temperature is preferably set to 350°C or lower. By setting it to 350°C or lower, thermal decomposition of the resin can be suitably suppressed.
• the coating is preferably heated from the steel sheet side (the lower layer of the coating). Heating from the lower layer of the coating provides good punchability and weldability. The reason for this is unclear, but the inventors believe it to be as follows. 1) When heating is applied from the bottom of the coating, convection occurs within the uncoagulated coating film, and resins that are not completely dissolved but have a particulate form, such as emulsion resins and dispersion resins, are concentrated near the surface layer, increasing the amount of resin in the outermost layer and improving punchability. 2) When heating is applied from the surface of the coating, the surface dries first and low-boiling point components tend to remain inside the coating, which turn into gas during welding and cause blowholes. However, when heating is applied from the steel plate side (lower layer of the coating), the low-boiling point components are effectively removed from the paint film, resulting in stable weldability.
• the weight of the insulating coating is preferably 0.05 g/ m2 or more in dry weight. When the weight of the insulating coating is 0.05 g/ m2 or more, the coating is applied uniformly and the coating performance is stable.
• the weight of the insulating coating is preferably 7.0 g/ m2 or less in dry weight. By setting the weight to 7.0 g/ m2 or less, the coating adhesion can be favorably obtained.
• the resins, inorganic components, organic reducing agents, and B compounds shown in Tables 1 and 2 were added to deionized water in the amounts (solids content equivalent) shown in Tables 1 and 2, and mixed to prepare water-based paints.
• ethylene glycol used as an organic reducing agent is liquid at room temperature, but the content was calculated as solids content.
• the solids concentration of the water-based paint was 3% by mass.
• thickener A-10H manufactured by Toa Gosei Co., Ltd.
• Table 1 shows that the examples of the invention in which the viscosity of the water-based paint is 1 mPa ⁇ s or more are superior to the comparative examples in terms of appearance, weldability, and punchability. Comparing Tables 1 and 2, it can be seen that when heating is performed from the bottom layer of the coating by induction heating, the weldability is superior to heating by a gas furnace, but even in the case of a gas furnace, it can be seen that performance can be improved by controlling the viscosity of the water-based paint. From this, it is clear that the effects of the present invention can be obtained regardless of the heating method.
