ABSTRACT:
In the present invention, grain oriented electrical steel sheets provided by heating a slab comprising, by weight percent, 0.025 to 0.075% of C, 3.4 to 5.0% of Si, 0.015 to 0.080% of sol. Al, 0.0030 to 0.013% of N, 0.014% or less of (S+0.405 Se) and 0.05 to 0.8% of Mn, sol. Al (%)/Si (%) being 0.0080 or more, the balance consisting of Fe and unavoidable impurities at a temperature below 1280.degree. C., hot-rolling the heated slab, subjecting the hot-rolled steel sheet to cold rolling, subjecting the cold-rolled steel sheet to decarbonization annealing with regulating the average diameter of primary recrystallized grains of the steel sheet subjected to decarbonization annealing to 18 to 35 .mu.m in a period between the completion of the decarbonization annealing and the initiation of final annealing, coating the decarburized steel with an annealing separator and subjecting the coated steel sheet to final annealing, wherein the final annealing is effected in such a manner that the partial pressure of nitrogen, P .sub.N2 (%), in the annealing atmosphere is 12.5% or more in a steel sheet temperature range of from 900.degree. C. to 1150.degree. C. in the heating stage of the final annealing, and subjecting the steel sheet to nitriding to cause the steel sheet to absorb 0.0010% by weight or more of nitrogen in a period between the completion of the hot rolling and the initiation of secondary recystallization in the final annealing.
