Influence of volume fraction and dispersion rate of grain-boundary cementite on the cold-rolling textures of low-carbon steel

On the technical background of elevated coiling temperatures the influence of the precipitated volume fraction and of the dispersion rate of grain boundary cementite on cold-rolling textures in low carbon steel was investigated. Whilst different dispersion rates with constant cementite volume do not reveal any distinct influence, the rolling texture is lowered by increasing the precipitated volume fraction of cementite.
