Cold rolling and salt bath annealing simulation were conducted to study the evolution of microstructure and textures of a commercially produced Titanium stabilized interstitial free steel by means of optical microscopy and X-ray texture measurement. The results show that all of the as cold-rolled specimens are completely recrystallized after annealing. As the cold-rolling reduction increases, the recystallized ferrite grains are refined, The intensities of the stable {114} and {223} components remain strong after recrystallization. The orientation intensity of the {111} and {111} also increases accordingly. As the cold-rolling reduction increases to 90%, the intensity of {111} tend to be higher than that of {111}.
