取向硅钢热轧板中纤维织构及Goss织构的形成和演变

在热轧过程中,取向硅钢热轧板形成了不均匀的微观组织和织构梯度,其中热轧板表层和次表层中的Goss织构对取向硅钢的磁性能有重要影响。因此,热轧板微观组织和织构沿厚度方向的形成和演变,特别是Goss织构的形成,仍然是一个值得讨论的课题。为了研究热轧板组织和织构的形成及其演变,使用光学显微镜和扫描电镜(SEM-EBSD)观察了热轧板不同厚度层(表层、次表层和中心层)组织,研究了热轧板组织形貌沿厚度方向的演变,并使用XRD测量了热轧板各厚度层(从表层s=1到中心层s=0)的宏观织构。结果表明,在高剪切力的作用下,热轧板表层s=1形成了大量等轴晶粒(晶粒长宽比为1.0～1.5)和具有一定随机性的织构。表层以下,随着剪切力从表层向中心层逐渐减小,等轴晶粒(晶粒长宽比为1.0～1.5)占比逐渐降低,再结晶晶粒的晶粒长宽比沿着厚度方向逐渐增大,再结晶晶粒形状倾向于沿轧向延伸和呈不规则状。最后,在中心层s=0中,一些大尺寸再结晶晶粒的晶粒长宽比可以达到3.0～6.5。在压缩力和沿厚度方向逐渐减小的剪切力的共同作用下,热轧板次表层s=0.5～0.9形成由众多特定取向组成的纤维织构,而中心层s=0～0.4形成典型的α纤维织构,纤维织构中的一些典型的特定位向包括{100}〈011〉、{112}〈111〉、{110}〈112〉、{213}〈364〉、{441}〈104〉和{110}〈100〉Goss。热轧板次表层s=0.5～0.9中的纤维织构沿厚度方向逐渐演变,并且在次表层s=0.5中有稳定的Goss织构形成。然而,次表层s=0.5中形成的高强度的Goss织构,而次表层中形成的Goss织构只是纤维织构的一小部分。     

低温高磁感取向硅钢高温退火过程织构及析出物的演变行为

对低温法生产的以AlN为主抑制剂的Hi-B取向硅钢高温退火过程进行了中断实验,借助EBSD及TEM技术对高温退火连续升温过程中织构与析出物的演变进行了研究。实验结果表明,800℃时ODF图出现高斯织构组分,但强度很弱,高斯晶粒偏离角在10°以上;950~1000℃时高斯晶粒异常长大,偏离角3~6°;高温退火过程析出物主要有球形、规则立方形及不规则多面体形3种形貌,由于渗N的影响,Zener因子先增大再减小,并且析出物在高斯晶界前沿优先粗化。     

常化退火处理对无取向硅钢组织和织构的影响

采用光学显微镜和X射线衍射仪研究了常化退火处理对无取向硅钢热轧板和成品退火板显微组织和织构的影响。结果表明:常化退火处理消除了热轧板中的变形组织,促使变形晶粒完成再结晶;常化退火处理使高斯织构和立方织构易通过再结晶在变形带内形核和长大,可显著降低成品退火板的{111}和{112}不利织构组分的占有率,提高{100}和{110}有利织构组分的占有率,从而有利于提高无取向硅钢成品板的磁性能。     

无取向硅钢形变储能取向依赖性及其对再结晶织构的影响

采用晶体塑性有限元模拟与实验相结合的方式,研究无取向硅钢冷轧过程中不同初始织构组分的取向流动与形变储能累积。结果表明:冷轧后形成了较强的α,γ形变织构和较弱的λ形变织构。再结晶织构由γ,α,η和λ织构组成,其取向密度依赖于冷轧压下率。随冷轧压下率增大,λ再结晶织构逐渐增强,η织构先增强后减弱,γ织构先减弱后增强,α织构稍有弱化。冷轧过程中形变储能累积具有明显的初始取向依赖性,初始γ取向储能累积速率在低于50%压下率时与初始α取向接近,高于50%压下率时则明显大于后者,初始λ取向储能累积速率始终显著低于γ和α取向,转至同一形变取向的不同初始取向间的储能累积也会产生差异。冷轧过程中不同初始织构组分的取向流动与形变储能累积规律,决定了无取向硅钢再结晶织构组分的发展。

6.5 wt% Si high silicon steel sheets prepared by composite electrodeposition in magnetic field

A new preparation method of near-net-shape 6.5?wt% Si high silicon steel sheets was proposed by combining composite electrodeposition (CED) and diffusion annealing under magnetic field. The obtained sheets were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, analytical balance and a silicon steel material measurement system. The results show that the surface morphology, the elemental distribution, the cathode current efficiency and the silicon content of coatings were obviously influenced by the micro and macro magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flows under magnetic field. With the effect of magnetic field, the silicon particles content of coatings showed an increasing trend and the diffusion process showed that an approximately uniform 6.5?wt% silicon steel sheet has been successfully obtained. The magnetism measurement showed that the high silicon steel sheet has the lower iron loss, and the iron loss further decreased under magnetic field. The new method proposed in this article, which is more environmentally friendly and low energy consumption, is feasible to prepare high silicon steel sheets.     

Laser annealing of silicon

In recent years laser processing has attracted much attention in view of its potential use in basic solid-state and material science research as well as in new processing technologies. The dominant feature of laser processing being the deposition of large amounts of energy (a few J/cm²) over very short time scales (a few tens of nanoseconds), it leads to melting of surface layers of solid followed by rapid resolidification. In this article, a few basic consequences of such laser-induced phenomena in silicon are reviewed.     

Effect of high temperature annealing on texture and microstructure on an AISI-444 ferritic stainless steel

AISI 444 is a Mo-alloyed ferritic stainless steel which presents good naphthenic corrosion resistance, making it attractive for applications in petroleum refining plants; however, good formability is also important. To achieve good formability with this alloy the annealing process is crucial. The annealing temperature in ferritic stainless steel is usually around 850 °C, which falls in the range of sigma phase precipitation. A means to avoid this precipitation is to anneal at temperatures around 1000 °C followed by rapid cooling. Annealing at high temperatures can cause grain growth and carbide or nitride precipitation which can result in a reduction of room temperature toughness. In this paper, the rolling and recrystallization textures of AISI 444 steel were studied in samples cold rolled with different thickness reductions (30%, 60%, 80% and 90%) followed by annealing at 955, 980 and 1010 °C. Aspects of grain size and carbide precipitation after annealing were characterized using EBSD and AFM. The material drawability was analyzed through strain rate or Lankford (r) coefficients calculated from texture results.     

Influence of intermediate annealing on final Goss texture formation in low temperature reheated Fe-3%Si steel

The precipitation behavior of inhibitors and their influence on final Goss texture formation in grain-oriented electrical steels produced by compact strip processing technology with a reheating temperature lower than 1200 °C were investigated under two distinct intermediate annealing methods: conventional intermediate recrystallization annealing and a new intermediate decarburizing and recrystallization annealing method without final decarburizing after the second cold rolling. The initiation of secondary recrystallization, the distributions of second phase particles, the final Goss texture, and the grain structure were observed. The new technology could maintain higher inhibitor densities because the deformed matrix could provide higher site densities for inhibitor nucleation before secondary recrystallization, resulting in a relatively higher inhibition effect of the second phase particles. The new technology could also compensate for the disadvantages of fewer inhibitors induced by fewer dissolved Mn and S elements in the matrix during lower reheating temperature for hot rolling. The final sheet produced after the secondary recrystallization annealing obtained stronger Goss texture, larger grain size, and better magnetic properties.     

硅钢表面激光熔覆高硅涂层对性能的影响

用Nd:YAG脉冲激光在低硅钢表面制备激光熔覆高硅涂层,研究了激光熔覆高硅涂层样品的组织和磁性能.结果表明,制备出的激光熔覆高硅涂层组织致密、无气孔和裂纹,且与基体有良好的冶金结合.经激光熔覆后硅钢表面存在熔覆区、界面结合区和热影响区.熔覆区的显微组织不均匀,随着与结合界面距离的增加,由柱状晶变为树枝晶,最终过渡到表层的细小树枝晶组织.熔覆层与基体之间的结合界面为平面晶组织,热影响区为马氏体组织.熔覆涂层的显微硬度远高于低硅钢基体,其主要原因是涂层具有较高的Si含量,涂层中的α-Fe和γ-Fe双相组织也导致了硬度的提高.激光熔覆高硅涂层硅钢样品经扩散退火后具有室温铁磁性,Si含量的提高使其室温直流磁性能优于原始低硅钢.     

Thermomechanical treatment for enhancing gamma fiber component in recrystallization texture of copper-bearing bake hardening steel

A two-step rolling-annealing process has been developed to increase the 〈1 1 1〉//ND (γ fiber) component in the recrystallization texture of a copper-bearing bake hardening steel. The two step process comprises the first rolling by a low reduction in thickness and subsequent annealing at 780 °C, followed by the second rolling by a high reduction and subsequent annealing at 780 °C. The first rolling process aims at seeding the γ fiber oriented grains, so that they can grow at the expense of differently oriented grains developed in the second rolling process. In this way the density of γ fiber component in the recrystallization texture of the bake hardening steel much increases compared with that in the conventional one-step rolling-annealing process.
