In the present work, the microstructure and texture of non-oriented 3.3% Si steel processed by asymmetric rolling (ASR) and subsequent annealing at different temperatures were compared with those obtained when using traditional symmetric rolling (SR). This work aims to reveal the effect of shear bands introduced by the ASR on the microstructure and texture evolution. The ASR sample reaches a recrystallization fraction of 62% at an annealing temperature of 650 °C, which is 32% higher than that of the SR sample annealed at the same temperature. This can be attributed to the abundant shear bands introduced by the ASR, which serve as the heterogeneous nucleation sites for the recrystallized grains. When increasing the annealing temperature to 750 °C, complete recrystallization could be observed in both asymmetric- and symmetric-rolled samples. When using an annealing temperature of 650 °C, the γ-oriented grains were dominant in the surface layer, while strong Goss-oriented grains could be observed in the center in the ASR sample. This is due to the fragmented small subgrains with different orientations in the surface layer inhibiting the nucleation of Goss- and cube-oriented grains during the annealing. In contrast, numerous Goss- and cube-oriented grains were formed in the surface layer after complete recrystallization when the ASR sample was annealed at a temperature of 750 °C. This may be related to the higher thermal energy, which benefits the nucleation of the Goss- and cube-oriented grains. In addition, ASR significantly increased the strength of η-fiber after complete recrystallization when compared with SR. This work might be helpful to design the rolling and the subsequent annealing processes.

Titanium and aluminum sheets were directionally strained by friction roll surface processing (FRSP). Severe shear strain was imposed into the surface layer and strain gradient was formed through the thickness of the sheet. The microstructure and texture in as-strained state were investigated by optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction technique. Ultra-fine grains in the surface layer of the titanium sheet were found to have a sharp texture with a preferred orientation strongly related to the FRSP direction. The evolution of microstructure and crystallographic texture of FRSPed samples during annealing were studied by electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) technique. Obvious preferred orientations of shear straining were obtained in the surface layer of both materials as a result from FRSP and subsequent annealing.

Using SEM/EBSD the substructure and texture evolution in dual phase steels in the first steps of the process chain, i.e. hot rolling, cold rolling, and following annealing were characterized. In order to obtain dual phase steels with high ductility and high tensile strength an industrial process was reproduced by cold rolling of industrially hot rolled steel sheets of a thickness of 3.75 mm with ferrite and pearlite morphology down to a thickness of 1.75 mm and finally annealing at different temperatures. Such technique allows a compilation of ferrite and martensite morphology typical for dual phase steels. Due to the competition between recovery, recrystallization and phase trans-formation during annealing a variety of ferrite martensite morphologies was produced by promoting one of the mechanisms through the variation of technological parameters such as heating rate, intercritical annealing temperature, annealing time, cooling rate and the final annealing temperature. Annealing induced changes of the mechanical properties were determined by hardness measurements and are discussed on the basis of the results of the substructure investigations.

The effects of hot compression deformation (300°C/0.1s-1) and annealing on the microstructural evolution of ZK60+0.8Zn (ZK60M) alloys were investigated in the present works. Lots of sub-structures were studded in the shear bands under the deformed conditions, and after annealing, the sub-structures in the shear bands occurred static recrystallization following by the growth of recrystallized grains. With the increase of annealing temperature, amounts of twins decrease while static recrystallization (SRX) grains increase while dislocations rearrange forming sub-grains ultimately induced static recrystallization. And that, the micro structural evolution and grain boundary distribution of the specimen as-deformed and as-annealed at different temperatures were analyzed by electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD) data.

The recrystallization behavior of 50% cold rolled Fe-22%Mn-0.376%C alloy during annealing at 560°C, 630°C and 700°C was investigated. Microhardness tests were applied for characterization of the recrystallization kinetics, X-ray diffraction and EBSD measurements were utilized to characterize the crystallographic texture and the grain microstructure. The obtained experimental data were evaluated in terms of the JMAK model. The obtained values of the Avrami exponent varied in the range between 0.70 and 1.37. The inhomogeneous grain microstructure after recrystallization is interpreted in terms of non-randomly distributed nuclei. Shear bands, lamellar lines intersecting with mechanical twins and grain boundaries with localized high misorientation gradients were identified to be preferential nucleation sites. No pronounced texture was observed after annealing at 630°C.

Microstructure and texture evolution of a 60% cold-rolled Fe-22.3Mn-0.3C alloy during annealing at 550°C were studied. Shear bands, triple junctions and grain boundaries were found to be the preferential nucleation sites. The orientations of the nuclei from these sites were found to be mainly random, but also partly located in α-(//ND) and γ-fibers (//ND). After annealing, fine recrystallized grains formed with abundant annealing twins which had a strong impact on the texture development. The final texture was of low intensity and revealed a weak α-fiber.

L10 ordered FePt and FePtCu nanoparticles (NPs) with a good dispersion were successfully fabricated by a simple, green, one-step solid-phase reduction method. Fe (acac)3, Pt (acac)2, and CuO as the precursors were dispersed in NaCl and annealed at different temperatures with an H2-containing atmosphere. As the annealing temperature increased, the chemical order parameter (S), average particle size (D), coercivity (Hc), and saturation magnetization (Ms) of FePt and FePtCu NPs increased and the size distribution range of the particles became wider. The ordered degree, D, Hc, and Ms of FePt NPs were greatly improved by adding 5% Cu. The highest S, D, Hc, and Ms were obtained when FePtCu NPs annealed at 750 °C, which were 0.91, 4.87 nm, 12,200 Oe, and 23.38 emu/g, respectively. The structure and magnetic properties of FePt and FePtCu NPs at different annealing temperatures were investigated and the formation mechanism of FePt and FePtCu NPs were discussed in detail.

La0.8Sr0.2CrO3 (0.2LSCO) thin films were prepared via the RF sputtering method to fabricate thin-film thermocouples (TFTCs), and post-annealing processes were employed to optimize their properties to sense high temperatures. The XRD patterns of the 0.2LSCO thin films showed a pure phase, and their crystallinities increased with the post-annealing temperature from 800 °C to 1000 °C, while some impurity phases of Cr2O3 and SrCr2O7 were observed above 1000 °C. The surface images indicated that the grain size increased first and then decreased, and the maximum size was 0.71 μm at 1100 °C. The cross-sectional images showed that the thickness of the 0.2LSCO thin films decreased significantly above 1000 °C, which was mainly due to the evaporation of Sr2+ and Cr3+. At the same time, the maximum conductivity was achieved for the film annealed at 1000 °C, which was 6.25 × 10−2 S/cm. When the thin films post-annealed at different temperatures were coupled with Pt reference electrodes to form TFTCs, the trend of output voltage to first increase and then decrease was observed, and the maximum average Seebeck coefficient of 167.8 µV/°C was obtained for the 0.2LSCO thin film post-annealed at 1100 °C. Through post-annealing optimization, the best post-annealing temperature was 1000 °C, which made the 0.2LSCO thin film more stable to monitor the temperatures of turbine engines for a long period of time.

Microstructure and texture evolution of commercially pure Ni processed by accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) up to eight cycles were studied using electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD). During ARB processing, the original coarse equiaxed grains were gradually transformed into refined lamellar grains along the rolling direction (RD). Shear bands started forming after three cycles. The fraction of low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) increased after the first and second cycle because of orientation spreading within the original grains. However, their fraction decreased with the evolution of high angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) during subsequent deformations, until saturation was reached after six cycles. Overall, the typical deformation texture components (S, Copper and Brass) were enhanced up to six ARB cycles and then only Copper was further strengthened. At higher cycles a higher Copper concentration was found near sample surface than the interiors due to a high frictional shear of ARB processing.
