The effect of microstructure and texture on the flow stress anisotropy in aluminium and IF steel has been investigated. The samples are recrystallized commercial purity aluminium (AA1050) cold rolled to prestrains of 0.05, 0.11 and 0.2, and recrystallized IF steel cold rolled to a prestrain of 0.28. The flow stress anisotropy was measured by tensile testing of specimens cut along different directions in the rolling plane. Pronounced anisotropy was found in both materials in spite of weak textures. The yield stress increases with increasing angle between the tensile direction and the rolling direction at all prestrains. The effect of microstructure and texture on the flow stress anisotropy was modelled by incorporating into a full-constraint Taylor model the strengthening effect of dislocation boundaries. The modelling and experimental results agree well, leading to a discussion of effect of the microstructure and texture on the flow stress anisotropy.

As-received hot-rolled 5.6 mm thick IF steel sheet was symmetrically/asymmetrically cold rolled at room temperature down to 1.9 mm. The asymmetric rolling was carried out in monotonic (an idle roll is always on the same side of the sheet) and reversal (the sheet was turned 180º around the rolling direction between passes) modes. Microstructure, texture and mechanical properties were analysed. The observed differences in structure and mechanical properties were modest, and therefore further investigation of the effects of other kinds of asymmetry is suggested.

The cold roll B-added Ti-IF steel is annealed for different times at 810 oC. The microstructure development is studied by Optical Microscope(OM) and the concentration of boron and phosphorus segregation at grain boundary is measured by Auger electron spectroscopy(AES). The result shows that the grain of the cold- rolled sample is elongated along the rolling direction and the elongated grains become into equi-axis shape after annealing 60 to 180sec. Boron and phosphorus segregated at gain boundaries. But boron’s concentration at grain boundary is higher than that of phosphorus and increase from 5at.% or so to about 10at% after annealing 150sec, Then boron’s concentration decrease slowly to 8at.% at 240sec. While phosphorus’s concentration increase to the max of 2.5at.% or so at 120sec, then its concentration decrease to 1at.% or so after annealing 240sec.

The cold rolling and simulative continuous annealing experiments after rolling were carried out in the laboratory on the base of super fine grain (SFG) steel sheet. The microstructure and the second-phase particles precipitated behavior were analyzed by the technology of OM, TEM and EDX. It is found that the fined Nb(C, N) can be formed by adding micro-alloy element Nb. It is noted that the yield strength is low as well as the tensile strength is high by the PFZ which is free of precipitate called precipitated free zone on the one side of the grain boundary. Contrast to the conventional IF steel, the super fine grain steel has super fine grains and gives excellent press-formability such as low yield strength, high r-value(the plastic strain ratio). High strength cold-rolled steel sheets (HSS) with high formability have been developed in the last decade, in which the major strengthening method was solid-solution hardening with silicon, manganese and phosphorous [1-3]. When the IF steel is strengthened with the high amount of solid-solution elements, it becomes susceptible to the secondary work embrittlement because of the lack of grain boundary strength [4-6]. In this paper, High strength cold-rolled steel sheets (HSS) with high formability have been developed for the IF steel-bases. The grain refinement and precipitation hardening are achieved by means of the fine distribution of carbide under the appropriate combination of the relatively higher carbon content near 0.0070 mass% with niobium. As the result, this type of IF-HSS has been successfully developed to reach a higher r-value as compared with the conventional IF-HSS.

T.M.C.P.(Thermo Mechanical Control Processing) has been widely used to improveplastic formability in steel strips. We have produced interstitial free steel(IF steel) strips and ferriticstainless-steel strips through T.M.C.P. rolling method. Optimizing conditions of hot rolling, hotrolled annealing, cold rolling and cold rolled annealing, we developed texture prediction model. Wecan predict rolling texture accurately using the conventional Taylor model. Moreover, we preciselypredict recrystallization texture classifying the total number of microscopic􀀁 slips which arecalculated using the Taylor model. We consider that these calculated results provednucleation-oriented model and two types of recrystallization and grain growth mechanisms exit inour studies. One mechanism is that grains which had the small total number of microscopic slips arepreferred orientation for the hot rolled and annealed ferritic stainless-steel strip. The othermechanism is that grains which had the high total number of microscopic slips are preferredorientation for the cold rolled and annealed IF steel strip.
