Effects of Rolling Parameters on Texture and Formability of High Strength Ultra-Low Carbon BH Steel

 The effects of hot rolling and cold rolling parameters on texture and r (plastic strain ratio) value of high strength ultra low carbon bake hardening (ULC-BH) steels are studied with orientation distribution function (ODF) structural analysis method. After hot rolling, the high strength ULC-BH steel sheet has weak γ-fiber with uniform orientation distributions, and weak α-fiber, of which {445}<110> component forms a high intensity peak at coiling temperature of 750 ℃. After cold rolling, both {111}<110>-{111}<112> intensity on the γ-fiber and {111}-{112}<110> intensity on the α-fiber enhanced. As a result of substitutional solute elements Mn and P being added to the steel, strong {112}<110> deformation texture component is observed on α-fiber, especially at 80% cold rolling reduction, and this leads to the strong {111}<112> recrystallization texture after annealing. The increase of cold rolling reduction shifts the maximum intensity on the γ-fiber from {111}<112> to {111}<113>. After annealing, a very strong γ-fiber is obtained, with intensity peak at {111}<112> component when cold rolling reduction reaches 80%. Increasing coiling temperature and cold rolling reduction improve γ-fiber intensity and r value, resulting in good deep drawability.

In-Situ Annealing Study of Transformation of α and γ Texture of Interstitial-Free Steel Sheet by High-Energy X-Ray Diffraction

 High-energy synchrotron diffraction offers great potential for experimental study of recrystallization kinetics. An experimental design to study the recrystallization mechanism of interstitial-free (IF) steel was implemented. The whole annealing process of cold-rolled IF steel with 80% reduction was observed in situ using high-energy X-ray diffraction (HEXRD). The results show how the main texture component of IF steel change, i. e. the α ［<110>∥rolling direction (RD)］ fiber texture decreases and the γ ［<111>∥normal direction (ND)］ fiber texture increases. The important part of the α fiber texture is that both the {100}<011> and {112}<011> texture decrease at the beginning of recrystallization. The γ fiber texture increases at the early stage of recrystallization which stems from the increase of {111}<112>. Nevertheless, the {111}<110> does not change after recrystallization. The dynamic evolution of the main texture components {100}<011>, {112}<011>, {111}<112> and {111}<110> is given by in-situ HEXRD.     

轧制方式对SUS430铁素体不锈钢组织和性能的影响

Development of recrystallization textures in 0.08%C steel

The present work investigates the effect of cold deformation on the evolution of microstructure and textures during recrystallization in 0.08%C steel. The cold rolling texture consists of partial α-fiber (RD//〈110〉) and complete γ-fiber (ND//〈111〉) along with Goss ({110}〈001〉) and cube ({100}〈100〉}) texture components. The sharpness of α-fiber, γ-fiber and cube component increases with the increase in rolling reduction from 70 to 85% while that of Goss component decreases. After recrystallization (750 and 800°C), the textures were composed of α and γ-fiber along with significant Goss components. The strength of γ-fiber decreases after annealing. The presence of Goss component in recrystallization textures is attributed to preferential nucleation in {111}〈112〉 type deformed grains.     

Effect of Hot Band Annealing Processes on Microstructure,Texture and r-Value of Ferritic Stainless Steel

The effect of hot band annealing processes,namely simulating batch annealing and continuous annealing,on microstructure,texture,grain boundary character and r-value of ferritic stainless steel was investigated.The hot band displayed a highly elongated ribbon-like structure and a pronounced deformation texture.The fully recrystallized grains were observed after continuous annealing while the "typical" hot rolled structure was remained after batch annealing.Also,the α-fibre texture formed during hot rolling almost disappeared after continuous annealing and a weak γ-fibre texture was obtained.By contract,the α-fibre texture remained very stable after batch annealing.After cold rolling and recrystallization annealing,the favorable γ-fibre texture was achieved in the continuous annealed steel.Instead of forming the γ-fibre texture,the recrystallization texture was notably shifted toward {223}582 in the batch annealed steel.Finally,the improvement in drawability with high r-value and low Δr-value were also displayed in sheet through the initial continuous annealing process.     

Microtexture Evolution and Grain Boundary Character Distribution of Interstitial-Free Steels With Moderate Levels of Cold Rolling Reductions

High-strength interstitial-free steel sheets have very good deep drawability when processed to have {111} recrystallization texture. The microtexture evolution and grain boundary character distribution of interstitial-free steels as a function of moderate levels of cold rolling reductions were investigated by the metallographic microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction technique. The results showed that there was a close relationship between microtexture and grain boundary character distribution for interstitial-free steel, especially the distribution and features of some specific types of coincident-site lattice boundaries. In addition, α-fiber texture was weakened to vanish while γ-fiber texture strengthened gradually as cold rolling reduction was increased from 20% to 75% for cold rolled and annealed samples. Accordingly, increasing the rolling reduction from 20% to 75% would lead to a significant increase in the proportion of Σ3 boundaries. Also, it was found that the microtexture of 20% cold rolled sample would induce a high frequency of Σ11 grain boundaries, but the microtexture of 75% cold rolled sample would produce more Σ7 and Σ17 grain boundaries. It was suggested that texture played a significant role in the formation of grain boundary character distribution.     

Microstructure and texture evolution during recrystallization of low-carbon steel sheets

Aluminum killed low-carbon steel sheets were cold rolled at different reduction ratios and annealed using different temperatures and holding time.The Vickers hardness was examined.The results show that when cold rolling reduction ratios increase from 40% to 81%,recrystallization temperatures decrease from 602°C to 572°C during 4hisochronal annealing,as well recrystallization holding time decreases from 117 min to 5min during isothermal annealing at 610°C.All recrystallization temperatures and holding time can be calculated using the annealing experiment results.Microstructure was examined through electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).The results show that as rolling direction preferentially grows,equiaxed grains grow into cake-type during recrystallization.Cake-type grains are more beneficial to obtaining ideal111//ND(normal direcrtion)orientation texture.{111}orientation grains nucleate and grow up preferentially.Deformation grains of{111}110orientations grow into new recrystallization grains of{111}123and{111}112during recrystallization.Texture formation can be explained by directional nucleation.

Texture Evolution of Columnar Grains in Electrical Steel During Hot Rolling

Columnar grains in cast slabs of electrical steel show strong anisotropy in grain orientation and morphology and thus influence the subsequent microstructure and texture after hot rolling significantly. The texture evolution of hot rolled sheets containing initial columnar grains with their <100> directions approximately parallel to the rolling direction (RD), transverse direction (TD) and normal direction (ND) of the hot rolled sheets was investigated by using EBSD technique. The results indicated that, whatever the initial texture of the columnar grains was, typical Goss, brass-type and copper-type shear texture component could develop in shear-deformed surface region. The copper-type texture formed under the maximum shearing force with the fine, sheared or dynamically recrystallized grains, and Goss grains were mainly elongated and deformed grains, while brass grains behaved between them. Additionally, the rotating relationship of the three types of shear textures was different due to the restriction of grain boundaries. In homogenously deformed center region, the RD sample contained more {112} <110> grains, and TD sample was covered by {100} textures such as {100}<011> and {100}<021> with coarse grains, while the ND sample developed many {100}<011> grains which were attributed to more {100} grains in the initial sample. Remarkable texture transition occurred on both sides of grain boundaries when {110} grains were adjacent to α-fiber texture grains. It was found that significant texture gradient and preferred distribution of rotating axis existed in the soft orientation grains on the α-fiber when the grains neighbored hard grains on γ-fiber.     

Textures and Properties of Hot Rolled High Strength Ti-IF Steels

The texture evolution in a high strength Ti-IF steel during the processing of hot rolling, cold rolling, and annealing is studied. For comparison, both ferrite rolling and austenite rolling are employed. It is found that the texture type is the. same after ferrite rolling and austenite rolling, but the texture intensity is much higher in the ferrite rolled sample. Furthermore, texture characteristics at the surface are absolutely different from those at the mid sec tion in both ferrite rolled and austenite rolled samples, as well as under the cold rolled and annealed conditions. The shear texture { 110 } 〈001 〉 disappears and orientation rotates along { 110 } 〈001 〉→ { 554 } 〈 225 〉→ { 111 } 〈 112 〉→{111}〈110〉→{223}〈110〉 during cold rolling. Compared to the austenite rolled sample, the properties of the cold rolled and annealed sheet which is subjected to ferrite rolling are higher.
