A study was made on the effect of the increase of silicon content and the addition of carbon on the primary recrystallization of silicon steel sheet containing MnS and AlN as inhibitors. The increase of silicon content led to the reduction of the size of primary grains and the intensity of {l_brace}110{r_brace} that is considered to represent the amount of {l_brace}110{r_brace}<001>-oriented nuclei, to the gain of the size of precipitates, and to the coarse dispersion of the precipitates. The carbon addition promoted primary recrystallization and decreased the size of primary grains. From the points mentioned earlier, the increase of silicon content is considered disadvantageous, and the carbon addition is advantageous to the secondary recrystallization of the {l_brace}110{r_brace}<001> texture.
