For the cold-rolled silicon steel strip lubricated with emulsion, the typical oil spot defects always can be found on the surface of rolled strip. The oil spot are parallel to the rolling direction. In the present study the micro-structure of oil spot defects was investigated by several surface analysis techniques, including LEXT ols4000 laser scanning confocal microscope, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The chemical compositions of the oil spot defects were analyzed by EDS. The results showed that the surface quality of the rolled non-oriented silicon steel was affected strongly by emulsion stability. The emulsion stability decreased with the increasing content of CL-. When the particle size of emulsion was larger, the lubricity of the emulsion deteriorated. Furthermore, there were some emulsions which contain miscella on the strip steel surface. The emulsions existed in the confined areas where the plate shape defects formed. The majority of its water was evaporated with the increasing of temperature and time. The oxides and residual emulsions could be found on the surface strip steel, which originated from the oxidation reaction between vapors and silicon steel surface. Eventually, the reaction produced some oxides (Fe3O4, FeO, Fe2O3, SiO2, CoCr2O4, NiCr2O4, Fe-Cr) and other by-products. In addition, the emulsion spots area were easier to suffer corrosion than the normal area under the same conditions.
