The present invention relates to a process for preparing a metal-chelate retarder by a sol-gel method. The method comprises the following steps: weighing calcium nitrate tetrahydrate, aluminum nitrate nonahydrate and ferric nitrate nonahydrate according to a certain mass ratio and adding them into deionized water; placing the mixed solution on a magnetic stirrer and stirring the mixed solution evenly; adding citric acid monohydrate or gluconic acid, ethylene glycol or glycerol, and placing the mixed solution into a water bath to react to obtain the metal-chelate retarder. The process of the present invention has a reliable principle, overcomes the defects of long production period, complex preparation and the like of the existing retarders, has the advantages of simple process operation, cheap and easily available raw materials, and short production period. The prepared retarder has wide temperature adaptation range and adjustable thickening time, is suitable for large-scale industrial production, and has a wide market application prospect.

An electrical steel sheet (1) includes a base material (2) of electrical steel, and an insulating film (3) formed on a surface of the base material (2), the insulating film (3) containing a polyvalent metal phosphate and Fe. A maximum value of a parameter Q expressed by “Q=C.sub.Fe—O/C.sub.P” is equal to or less than 1.3 times an average value of the parameter Q in a region from a first depth from a surface of the insulating film to a second depth, C.sub.Fe—O denoting a proportion (atom %) of Fe bonded to O relative to all elements, and C.sub.P denoting a proportion (atom %) of P relative to all elements. The first depth is 20 nm from the surface, and the second depth is a depth where the proportion of P is equal to a proportion of metal Fe.
