This article presents the texture evolution and the ductility improvement of the cold-rolled foils of boron-free Ni3Al during the recrystallization and the subsequent grain growth. The cold-rolled foils had sharp {110} textures. After the recrystallization at 873K/0.5h, the texture was disintegrated with several texture components. Interestingly, most of them had a single rotation relationship. i.e. 40˚ around <111>. With the progress of the grain growth, however, the texture returned to the sharp, cold-rolled textures. This two-stage texture evolution, called as “Texture memory effect”, was explained assuming a high mobility of the grain boundary with the 40˚<111> rotation relationship. The texture returning was highly effective to improve the ductility of the foils.

The paper presented the texture evolution during primary recrystallization and following grain growth in the heavily cold-rolled Ni3Al single crystals. It turned out that the texture evolution occurred in the two stages. First, primary recrystallization caused the drastic change of the as-rolled texture. Then, as grain growth proceeded, the texture returned to the same one as the as-rolled textures. This texture return can be designated as Texture memory effect. The mechanism of the texture memory effect was discussed based on the analysis of the orientation relationship between the as-rolled and the primary recrystallization textures.

AbstractTexture evolution during grain growth was examined in the 84% cold-rolled Ni3Al with a Goss texture, {110}<001>, using the electron backscatter diffraction method. By recrystallization at 873K/0.5h, the texture was disintegrated and composed of several orientations, most of which had a 40° rotation relationship about <111> to the Goss orientation. Also, a small number of the Goss grains existed. With grain growth, the Goss grains grew faster than the 40°<111> rotated grains, leading to the texture reversion to the original, Goss texture. This phenomenon can be referred to Texture memory effect. In the early stage of the grain growth, the preferential growth occurred on the Goss grains surrounded by the 40°<111> rotated grains. It can be thus ascribed to the high mobility of 40°<111> grain boundary. In the late stage, the Goss grains were adjacent to each other and the preferential growth was accelerated. It is considered that the adjacent Goss grains survived in the grain coalescence process since the boundary between them are low angle boundary having a low energy.

The magnetically driven motion of planar symmetrical and asymmetrical <> tilt grain boundaries in high purity (99,995%) zinc bicrystals was measured in-situ by means of a po­la­rization microscopy probe in the temperature range between 330°C and 415°C and the corres­pon­ding migration activation parameters were obtained. The results revealed that grain boundary mobi­lity essentially depends on the misorientation angle and the inclination of the boundary plane. The magnetic annealing of the cold rolled (90%) Zn-1.1%Al sheet specimens resulted in an asymmetry of the two major texture components. This effect is attributed to a magnetic driving force for grain growth. The grain microstructure evolution was also essentially affected by a magnetic field.

The kinetics and topology of grain growth in three dimensions were simulated using a phase-field model with anisotropic grain-boundary mobilities. In order to perform large scale calculations we applied both modifications of algorithms and parallel coding techniques to the Fan and Chen's phase-field algorithm. Kinetics of abnormal grain growth is presented. It is observed that the grains of a minor component which are at the beginning surrounded preferentially by boundaries of high mobility grow faster than the grains of a major component until the texture reverses completely. Additionally, topological results of grain structures, such as grain size distributions and grain face distributions, are discussed

The evolution of crystallographic texture in a Zr-2Hf alloy has been investigated during deformation, primary recrystallisation and normal grain growth. The as-deformed states (50-90% deformation) are characterized by a major tilted {0001}<1010> texture component and this component is reinforced with increasing deformation. A decrease in the intensity of the tilted {0001}<10 10> component and a continuous increase in the intensity of the tilted {0001}<1120 > component take place during primary recrystallisation. Normal grain growth is associated with the coarsening of grains with the {0001}<1120 > orientation. This texture evolution is interpreted on the basis of the evaluation of the stored energy and the consideration of specific grain boundaries with low energy and/or high mobility.

In the present study, in situ phase transformation experiments have been carried out using neutron diffraction to monitor the texture evolution during the α→ß→α phase transformation in Ti-6Al-4V with and without 0.4% yttrium additions. The aim of adding yttrium was to control ß grain growth above the transus ß by grain boundary pinning. In the present case, strengthening of the ß texture, occurring during ß grain coarsening resulted in strengthening of particular ß texture components, which increases the likelihood of α texture modification by selective growth of α variants on the common (110) ß grain boundaries into unoccupied large β grains.
