Abstract: When Sn segregated at grain boundaries of high induction oriented silicon steel,no remarka- ble interaction between Sn and other elements was observed.At the starting temperature of secondary recrystallization,950℃,a certain Sn still segregates at grain boundaries.Sn seems to act as a supplemental inhibitor through grain boundary segregation.According to theoreti- cal analysis,an addition of Sn may decrease the secondary recrystallization temperature of high induction oriented silicon steel,and it is in agreement with the experimental result.

Key words: silicon steel, Sn, segregation, Auger, secondary recrystallization
