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.

Rapid setting high strength calcium phosphate cements and methods of using the same are provided. Aspects of the cements include fine and coarse calcium phosphate particulate reactants and a cyclodextrin which, upon combination with a setting fluid, produce a flowable composition that rapidly sets into a high strength product. The flowable compositions find use in a variety of different applications, including the repair of hard tissue defects, e.g., bone defects such as fractures.
