Method for producing carburizing electric steel of Mo additive-free

A without the addition of Mo, Cr-Mo steel and can be secured equal or carburizing quality, be possible to provide a Cr-Mo steel meet or exceed the performance of electrical steel. SOLUTION: The electric steel obtained by steel making in an electric furnace with a scrap material containing, by mass%, C: 0.12~0.28%, Si: 0.15% or less, Mn: 0.65 ~0.95%, P: 0.035% or less, S: 0.035% or less, Cr: 1.35~1.90%, Al: 0.020~0.050%, N: 0.0080~ containing 0.0230%, and, Cu as an impurity contained in the electric steel by being contained in the scrap material, Ni and Mo is the selection of the scrap material is made so as to satisfy the formula 1 and, the balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities. Formula 1: ([Cu] + 2 × [Ni]) 0.76 × [Mo] ≧ 0.0040. .BACKGROUND
