METHOD FOR PRODUCING ELECTROMAGNETIC STEEL SHEET

A new and improved method for producing electrical steel sheet enabling production of electrical steel sheet excellent in magnetic characteristics and coating film adhesion, the method for producing electrical steel sheet containing a process of bringing an electrical steel sheet containing, by mass%, C: more than 0% and 0.10% or less, Si: 2.5% or more and 4.5% or less, Mn: 0.01% or more and 5.0% or less, a total of one or more of S, Se, and Te: more than 0% and 0.050% or less, acid soluble Al: more than 0% and 5.0% or less, N: more than 0% and 0.015% or less, and P: more than 0% and 1.0% or less and having a balance of Fe and impurities into contact with a solution, the solution containing one or more elements from among Cu, Hg, Ag, Pb, Cd, Co, Zn, and Ni, a total of concentrations of the elements being 0.00001% or more and 1.0000% or less.
